  • upgrade and update are the same thing, to put it simply, because they are needed to download new versions of programs or so that you can install fresh updates and the latest versions of applications. update — updating the list of packages. upgrade — updating the packages themselves.

  • ubuntu,debian - for beginners. fedora,garuda - average. arch,blackarch,kali linux - for experienced. But do not forget that the distribution depends on your interests and actions.

  • Fedora Kinoite / Silverblue,Xubuntu / Linux Lite / Zorin OS Lite,KDE Neon / Kubuntu, Arch + KDE / Arch + Sway or Hyprland. Wacom / Synaptics / AES styluses - usually recognized by the Linux kernel. KDE - provides profiles for stylus, pressure, buttons, sensitivity. Gnome (on Wayland) - recognizes styluses, but with less customization.

  • Fedora Kinoite / Silverblue,Xubuntu / Linux Lite / Zorin OS Lite,KDE Neon / Kubuntu,Arch + KDE / Arch + Sway or Hyprland. Wacom / Synaptics / AES стилусы — как правило, распознаются ядром Linux. KDE — даёт профили для стилуса, нажатие, кнопки, чувствительность. Gnome (на Wayland) — распознаёт стилусы, но с меньшей настраиваемостью.

  • Probably my answer will not concern what I will tell about the program, but about what I liked about Linux, that there is freedom of action and everything is under my control

  • Ubuntu,Pop!_OS,Fedora,elementary OS. I would like to start with Ubuntu or Pop!_OS. These are the most popular and well-adapted distros, which are ideal for gaming, creativity and safe use. If Ubuntu is not to your liking because of Snap or telemetry, Pop!_OS can be a great alternative. But you can still download any distribution you want, you just need to look for it yourself

  • Creating a repository is not absolutely necessary, but it will make the process of updating the kernel much easier in the future. If you plan to frequently update the kernel with custom settings, creating a repository is a smart choice. If you update the kernel very rarely, you can get by with manual compilation.

  • Yes, to use the CONFIG_X86_NATIVE_CPU option, you will need to compile the kernel yourself with this option enabled. This is a compile-time setting that affects how the compiler optimizes the build specifically for your system. Prebuilt kernels from distro repositories usually do not have this enabled, since they are built for broad compatibility with many different processors.

    The X86_NATIVE_CPU Kconfig build time parameter has been merged for the Linux 6.16 merge window as an easy way to enforce the “-march=native” compiler behavior on AMD and Intel processors to optimize kernel builds for your system's local CPU architecture/family. For those who want “-march=native” for Linux kernel builds on AMD/Intel x86_64 processors, you can easily include a new CONFIG_X86_NATIVE_CPU parameter to set this compiler behavior in local kernel builds. The CONFIG_X86_NATIVE_CPU parameter is considered when compiling the Linux x86_64 kernel with GCC or LLVM Clang when using Clang 19 or later due to a compiler bug in the Linux kernel in older compiler versions. In addition to setting the compiler parameter “-march=native” for Linux kernel C code, enabling this new Kconfig build parameter also sets “-Ctarget-cpu=native” for Rust kernel code.

  • When you install Debian with encryption (usually LUKS — Linux Unified Key Setup), only the partition where Debian is installed is encrypted. Windows will remain on a separate partition and will not be touched. Debian encryption does not break Windows, provided that: The partitions for Windows and Debian are clearly separated. You do not change or delete the Windows partition. The bootloader (GRUB) is correctly configured and not damaged. Usually, Debian will install GRUB, which will recognize Windows and add it to the boot menu. If something goes wrong during the bootloader (GRUB) installation, Windows boot may temporarily break. But this can be fixed — you can restore the Windows bootloader using a bootable USB stick. It is always better to back up important data before installation. When installing Debian, choose manual disk partitioning to accurately specify the partitions. Use encryption only for the Linux partition, leaving the Windows partition alone. Save a backup copy of the boot partition (for example, EFI) or make a full backup.

    Why do many people dislike Linux? Freedom and openness: Open source, No vendor lock-in, Many distributions Security: By default, more secure than Windows. Fewer viruses. Regular security updates.

    Oh yeah, I forgot about our gamers! They will whine that you can't play games on Linux. It's very funny because for a long time there has been a program called lux-wine that allows you to open 95% of .exe programs and even more so you can choose any version of Windows without downloading anything, there is like proton and so on.

    I am ready to talk to anyone about this topic, but not for the purpose of humiliation or insult.
