"Wondoze has better drivers than Linux!"

  • I installed Wondoze on a real unmodified Intel computer, with an Intel Ethernet chip
  • Ethernet doesn't work
  • Sneakernet driver from Intel for wrong version of Wondoze
  • Modify .inf files
  • reboot
  • Go into scary blue screen, then scary black screen, disable "driver signature enforcement"
  • reboot
  • try to install drivers, get presented with big scary red warning
  • install anyways
  • network works, yay!

So much easier than apt, pacman, dpkg, etc /s

I've installed several distros of Linux on the same hardware and network just worked out of the box. Bluetooth didn't work though :c

@foxxy the wonders of (most) drivers being baked into the kernel

@foxxy That's because Intel puts actual effort to make it's drivers for Linux.

@Genstar Yeah am starting to see that now. I've been an ATI/AMD fanboi shill for so long...

@foxxy Because of that, Intel Wi-Fi cards have big demand among Linux users.
