  • Maybe I’ve just had bad luck. I had an issue where my second monitor wasn’t being detected at all in Linux, but was fine in Windows. There was a fix, fortunately someone in a forum had the same issue, but it was a command line fix. And IIRC it wasn’t permanent either - I think I had to retype it on reboot.

    I also have a 3 button mouse with the middle button set to double click in Windows. There was no linux driver for it. I’m sure its possible to get it working, but quite how, I’ve no idea.

    Basically I’ve installed various flavours of Linux maybe 5 times, and each time had to abort and go back to windows after a day or two because I couldn’t find how to fix a particular issue.

    For me, I’ve been using Windows for so long that when I want to change something, there’ll be a UI for it somewhere. In Linux, you have to learn a bunch of text commands and modifiers. And if you don’t already know what they are, you don’t know what to search for to find them.

    One of these days I’ll learn out of necessity. Until then, Windows it just too convenient
