I use ZFS on my workstations with Debian, but yeah full drive is the way to go i think even Linux Mint does full drive anymore, also remember to keep backups.

Form what i seen someone reported a bug that AMD APUs will spam a system with a Nvidia GPU.
nothing running, nothing in top it just has one CPU thread at 100% also this laptop has a NPU and I think it is a Nvidia 4050 Max-Q.
it does not is why i think it maybe firmware or Driver issues etc i will work on debugging it at a later date also it maybe jest bad hardware as well if not i’m not buying anything from HP.
it maybe AMD-TEE issues or a Driver/Firmware bug i really don’t know at this point it looks like i may have a lot of debugging to do does Zen support AMD-TEE?
all DE’s have cpu usage issues and it does not show me whats going on. also i miss the part Nvidia issues was gnome 3 forks only.
The CPU thread runs at 100% with all DE’s/OSes i tested so far and the Nvidia Drivers and Steam had bad issues with Gnome 3 forks, but work fine with Mate and KDE I even gave the Open Kernel Driver a ago before reinstalling a new OS with a a different DE.
A big issue i have it does not show any process running at 100% and i tested Kernel 6.8 to 6.11.Rc.x Nvidia Release, Beta etc I used performance and the default’s on Ubuntu and Fedora, i even tried to disable USB power saving mode that is a common issue with Linux on laptops, you think something like amd_pstate=guided etc will fix it? I seen many types of hardware, driver and firmware bugs over the years but i have not seen one like this in maybe 6-10 years and the last was a Intel atom CPU? and maybe a few Realtek Driver issue’s, i’m going to try Debian unstable etc soon, but i need to buy a USB SSD but my LMDE laptop with a backport Kernel works fine on my other laptop without a Nvidia GPU, and i think Debian’s Kernels has AMD-TEE support as of Kernel 6.9.7?, i have not had to debug hardware in a long time and i have a lot going on for the next few month’s so if up stream does not fix it i can start debugging I’m going to do a little bit like disabling hardware to see if it is the nic or a usb port etc.
I been using the open kernel driver with my Debian Workstation, it has worked better then the default driver by far with the Debian backport Kernel, I installed it using the Nvidia Cuda Repo.
please don’t post that site. I just need a few more things to work well with Wayland like Nvidia Drivers.

Wait for Battlemage, the DG2 cards will not have full support with the newer drivers also BattleMage is coming out soon.
Steam snap was so broken Valve told people to use the .deb or flathub.
Should be fully ready next release.
Proxmox, TrueNAS, Debian with cockpit etc. really any type 1 hyperviser work’s.
Good one day i maybe able to use AMD hardware and dump cuda, it really sucked not being able to to use simple software do to AMD’s zero support.
Maybe your HBA is having issues? or a Drive is Failing? have you done a memtest? you may need to do system wide tests, it can even be a PSU failing or a software Bug.
also TrueNAS is built with Docker they use it heavily something like 106 apps, Debian has good ZFS support, but you will end up doing a lot of unneeded work using Debian unless you keep it simple.
up to AMD Ryzen 7XXX and Intel 13xxx Should Work just fine, and at most you may have to use the Debian backport Kernel 6.5 soon to be 6.6, and or pop a new wifi card in it as Dell ships some shitty wifi cards.
https://backports.debian.org/ btw LMDE has backports enabled by default.
I have a new Dell laptop with LMDE on it. The laptop works just fine, all my apps are from flathub other then the ones that shipped with LMDE.
Linux is not Unix if you want to use Unix someone has it on floppy disks.
any updates for wifi 7 drivers?
