True it's rather new but I've had basically the opposite experience. Mint broke a lot of stuff, couldn't get my audio working properly at all, lots of help forum posts are for old versions and fuck up your system, while bazzite just worked and I could jump straight into customization. I'm not trying to dissuade the use of mint, I just think by now there are a lot of valid alternatives.

I'd rather recommend an immutable distro like bazzite. Mint was ok, but pretty messed up if something didn't work. If you mess up your immutable distro, all you need to do is reboot.

It's not much customization but I like it :)

I created this some time back and swap the button on every Linux install since. Feel free to use it too!

Hi there,

I've just recently started using Linux (Mint) and I'm pondering on if and how to change my setup.

Here's how it is right now: I have 4 drives - 1 512GB ssd which has Windows installed on it, a 2 TB hdd that's used for storage on the Windows part of my system, a 1 TB m2 ssd with Linux Mint and a 2 TB ssd for storage on my the Linux part of my system.

I can't unfortunately get rid of Windows completely, as I need the Office Suite for Work - I do training sessions on process optimization mostly online via MS Teams.

At the moment, I have fmstrat/winapps installed, as well as teams-for-linux (which is just a web app as far as I know) for most basic things like outlook and teams messages. Both options (Web-apps and winapps) are not really suitable for online training sessions or more work intense sessions as they are simply too slow or missing features. For everything else, I'll do a reboot into the windows system and after I'm done I reboot back to Linux.

Now here's my question:

Is there a way, e.g. to put a VM fullscreen over both displays on one workspace and give it full power / resources so I won't notice much difference to a native system (How good would my components need to be for this?) - and suspend the VM if I switch away from that workspace back to Linux. And would this be suitable to access my devices like the rodecaster pro duo or my cam (via CamLink 4K) and my streamdeck?

Do you have any other better ideas to get to my goal of basically having an easy way to switch between Win and Linux. The Windows VM would only be used for Office work and online Meetings but both should run without any noticeable lags or glitches.

Would another distro be better for this task? I like working with Linux Mint atm but I wouldn't mind trying a different one as well - the Linux distro would have to be suitable for gaming though.
