Hello. I’m planning on getting a little Lenovo ideapad duet 3i for general media creation n consumption. Emphasis on being able to sketch.
I want to replace win 11 s (default os) on it with a Linux distro. I heard that gallium is nice n lightweight (designed to run on Chromebooks, …which is also related cus the other computer consideration is an ideapad duo Chromebook… and these computers are very comparable.) Are there any other lightweight distros I should consider? I’m also worried about being able to run windows programs like CSP (main drawing program). N games n other things. Also would this mess up the pen-touch drivers/systems?
(Note: I know little about computer systems. And this is my first time actually setting up Linux)
I have an Ideapad and Fedora has been the distro that has run it ever since
While I normally prefer Linux Mint, Fedora was the only distro that worked with all touch features out of the box on my IdeaPad Flex 5. Other distros I tried out (Mint, Ubuntu, Manjaro, OpenSUSE) had some issue or another that required tweaks: Second-class touch support, like the cursor jumping to where you tap instead of real tap input, applications not drag-scrolling, and the keyboard not re-enabling after flipping back from tablet mode.
