Dope Tech Episode 2

<<@ArchLars says : Zorin OS is Irish, so if you are of Irish ancestry or Irish and you prefer to use Irish wherever possible here you go. 😁>> <<@JanKerstens says : 😂>> <<@ragnarkarlsson1160 says : i sitt think about start use this i use ubunto now>> <<@arvaneret_329 says : I tried installing this Linux distro on a USB with balenaEtcher but it didn't work, Rufus worked. Still, when turning on the computer with the USB drive connected, it wouldn't pass Secure Boot. I had to go to the UEFI and turn Secure Boot off to be able to boot into Zorin OS. I also checked the image file with checksum and it was correct. Is this normal?>> <<@yougetagoldstar says : Thank you for the video. As for Balena Etcher, every time I've used it it has essentially resulted in the cost of my USB drive, meaning that afterward I can't use it for anything else, ever again. Is there something I'm supposed to keep in mind when using Balena Etcher?>> <<@bigjoeangel says : Can you install 2 linux distros alongside each other on the same HDD?>> <<@sirjohng1 says : Does Sage Accounting Software work on this?>> <<@mirbie43 says : It's constantly asking me for the password. And I typed but shows the massage that is wrong password. Where is the password keyring store on Zorin, how to disable it or remove it>> <<@mirbie43 says : How to permanently disable or remove the anoing keyring on Zorin 17>> <<@_Trakman says : Hey can you recommend a good desktop or laptop that will work with linux out of the box? Like with WIFI 7, Bluetooth, trackpad all working etc I know another channel mentions Tuxedo Computers, but do you know a good brand and model of PC that will “just work” with fast processor and good graphics card 😊>> <<@pcphantom1978 says : The irony of someone who looks like Bill Gates demonstrating a system for users leaving Windows.>> <<@wael4070 says : I installed it on my T420, running perfectly>> <<@mharrison1325 says : Spent a few days on Mint but Zorin quickly caught my eye. Pretty easy decsion to go Pro.>> <<@NettiGaming says : Thank you Sir. I have a new love ❤ and its Linux 😂🐧>> <<@RAZR_Channel says : This is the Best Review... other reviews are basically just reading the zorin website. This is a Proper Review...>> <<@ardithconley2628 says : 3rd time viewing. Hey, I found out a cool thing about Zorin OS Pro and really all versions.of the program. Maybe you can make a video about this. You can do an in-place-version-upgrade. Ya know pro to pro or core to core ect. I payed for version 16.3 and can now upgrade it for free to 17.2 for free. That saved me $48 USD.>> <<@rk_19 says : even being an intermediate linux user (can install arch linux) zorin os and linux mint are so good to use because they just work, i don't need to tinker that much, it works out of the box, i will keep using arch and NixOS for my main work, but damn, these distros just feel good to use>> <<@wasp6405 says : 11:40 that was windows aero tab switching in windows 7 which was no longer available in later windows and I miss that it was much better than the boring tab switch we have now.>> <<@kennethphillips253 says : I am dumb. How do I put iso on my computer?>> <<@keyjay9504 says : Okay you made a grave mistake ,the pro version comes with $5,000 worth of professional software products for artist, video editors, music producers and DJs as well as alternative productivity apps. And that names include companies like adobe premiere pro, imagine lines FL studio , Microsoft Office suite home and business and many other apps . All of that for $49 you legit can’t beat that. People are better off buying this OS than the software’s independently it’s a massive bargain for artists .>> <<@sting_ray263 says : I tried a little Linux here and there. In the past, I had hard time playing midi music (xxx *.mid). Can Zorin plays midi music now ?>> <<@Nameless-5477 says : don't install zorin os it deletes your dirvers as it pleases.>> <<@usamasaad9334 says : Very informative video and interesting os>> <<@Ninja-Myth says : I was going to try this as a dual-boot with my Windows 10 on a seperate drive but I see that's not an option. I've been looking for an alternative for when Win 10 dies (I cant upgrade to 11).>> <<@onemoreshow7 says : is it safe to use for personal work??>> <<@yohanespradono5224 says : i wish there is linux distro that looks like macos BY DEFAULT. it will suit my 16:10 screen laptop.>> <<@mravg79 says : I will put this way. I’m mainly a windows user. At work I used WSL with Ubuntu on it as it was needed for my work. At home for last 8 months I’m using Steam Deck (instead of my old laptop). So on top of the fact I need to explore more of what I can do on Steam Deck (so far is was mainly basic stuff, or things I could just unpack to my Home folder and run it from there), I started slowly browsing for some distros to try. For me it is not a big problem I have 3 old laptops (17, 13 and 7 years old) so I can install play a bit and see how I feel about it. But my moms laptop even though 5 years old it works like a snail on windows 10, so I was thinking of installing Linux for her. She do some light document editing, and uses web apps. So I would hope for something she can jump into without a learning curve (she is close to 70 yo, and sometimes she has some issues with doing things on windows even though she is using this os for as long as I can remember). Any recommendations? One thing I would like to ensure is easy (through GUI) update and OS version update process.>> <<@gregmcmahon957 says : Thank you!! I have been a Windows users for years.>> <<@jakobw135 says : What is YOUR VIEW of the difference between the FREE VERSION of Zorin and it's PROFESSIONAL PAID variety?>> <<@jakobw135 says : How does Zorin 17 compare with Debian 12 and Fedora 40?>> <<@jakobw135 says : Is KDE more Windows like than Gnome?>> <<@parkerbohnn says : That Zorin OS 17's a gut burger.>> <<@zbiromax9228 says : is zorin os a secure linux? respect the user's privacy. did the corporation create it?>> <<@Ron_Real says : All nerd stuff...2 hours after install already not able to login or get in grub recovery mode....waste of time and back to windows>> <<@fergus247 says : where do the distros come in? it seems like they are all just Linux+Gnome>> <<@garfieldrupe630 says : From what I have read Zorin OS PRO costs because of the Photoshop app. Not seeing all that well I'll take the free version>> <<@TomMarloweRiddle says : After this, I'm gonna try out Zorin OS 17. But just one clarification. My laptop has both integrated intel GPU and NVIDIA GPU (2019 released NVIDIA GPU). Should I install the "Try and Install Zorin OS Modern NVIDIA Drivers" option or the first one? Cheers mate!>> <<@JFDSmit-rm6tw says : I've found Rufus to be easier to use than Balena Etcher. Maybe it's just me.>> <<@dharma6682 says : Installed but not booting showing error 1962>> <<@marclamar1905 says : I'm old, my computer is old and so is my printer. I followed your step by step instructions and everything went perfect. I can't thank you enough. Couldn't believe zorin picked up my brother HP110 without any intervention from me.>> <<@ramakrishnanmahadevan4359 says : But sadly the sound does not work. So much fanfare and it has to end like this. Some dummy sound mixer is used by the distro because it could not install the intel drivers. I searched net and this is the case for Ubuntu and other Ubuntu based distros like mint etc. I wasted nearly 4 hours>> <<@white4392 says : Don't know how my system got really slow after installing zorin os Dell Inspiron Laptop specifications 4gb ram 500gb hdd but it's still lagging. Any os can you suggest for this specification?>> <<@mikecook317 says : Once Zorin became my daily driver, I went ahead and bought the Pro version. As Chris pointed out, it doesn't do a whole lot more than the core version. But I like to support open source software when I use it. I'm also the sucker who paid for Malwarebytes and WinRAR. hehe I used those, though. Anyway, if you're sick of the intrusive Windows updates and nonstop sales pitch, Zorin is a pretty easy switch to make. I use it everyday.>> <<@allensmith9312 says : Very fancy, however I suspect my printer will not work on it, or programs like Photoshop...>> <<@futurespeak9648 says : Jelly mode baby!>> <<@huhwhat9759 says : Lol this popped up in my recommendations. I've been using Zorin off and on since Zorin 9 (i really miss the electric blue layout and funky slanted task bar) i still have a burned dvd of the iso somewhere. I distro hop alot, but i always find myself back on Zorin. Its just seemingly more "polished" even if your not coming from windoze (which i haven't used in years) its just a solid linux distro>> <<@bOOmbOOmProd says : Came from Windows 11 and have been Dos/Windows Since 1989. Have dabbled before in Linux but it always looked like Windows 95 even skinned. Zorin OS and Lutris have changed my entire perspective on what a great operating system is. This functions exactly like I want with very minor tweaking. I used Ventoy which is a complete game changer for booting from USB drives. I have 0 need to return to Windows OS.>> <<@eggy1962 says : I could not find an iptv player that i installed that worked…..the 3 available just did work either crashing or yuki would only play 1 minute of a channel, …..iptv smarters would not install like it did on mint…….ok guess i dont have the knowledge>> <<@davesmith8101 says : I tried your dual boot system, where you used two drives but install each OS on it's own disk, then use the BIOS boot menu to select Linux or Windows. Thereby avoiding the problems that normal dual boot can cause. It would not work on my PC with a fairly old B85M-E ASUS MB. What happened was:- Windows would boot and restart or startup normally, However, when I ran Linux mint it would boot ok the first time but when shut down it would restart and go straight to Linux Mint again regardless of which system you selected on the boot menu! Long story short, I have now started using Mint (dual boot) as my daily driver to get away from the Microsoft spyware that is Windows 10 and 11. I have to have Windows 10 available because my partner would not know where to start with Linux and would not hesitate to tell me!Been watching your videos for years, subbed.>> <<@emdotrod says : I use Zorin after my laptop somehow got screwed up with Windows power management driver. Safe to say I feel very comfortable switching to it. Just need to adapt to some alternative apps for my work flow but overall I'm very happy with this distro.>>
