>>58107536
I use a Win10 laptop for work, 2 months old, and a couple times a week I will open it up to see it configuring updates. So annoying when I have to sit at a customers house while this laptop does what ever it wants.

>>58107536

Some poor schmuck was using the school computer to give a powerpoint presentation when this shit happened.

I use windows for almost all my computational needs but it's inexcusable and part of Microsoft's new trend of forcing their vision down our throats. Can't do much about it though, Windows is the de facto with mac as a somewhat near second, but I hate macs. Linux is fun for a secondary computer

>>58107737
Probably died for windows because of the transition from xp to 6,7,8, and 10.

People got into the habit of not updating for years until their IT guy at work made them. That doesn't work so well now that Microsoft has a track record for breaking small things with small updates.

I have never been forced into a reboot, and am usually notified like 5 hours in advance before the system plans to reboot.

I don't know OP.

I have Windows 10 on my computer at work and I've literally had no issues with it.

Meanwhile I'm 3 days in to trying to get Kubuntu working on my new gaming desktop and it's barely functioning correctly.

>>58109307

Pajeets use Linux because they can't afford anything else in their shitty country

>>58109342

I'm not fucking anything up shit for brains.

Faggots like you make trying to make the switch to Linux insufferable.

I did a fresh install from the latest ISO release and followed all the documentation exactly.

My hardware is just too fucking new for the fat autists who work on Linux software to support properly apparently.

I was in the Kubuntu IRC support channel for 5 hours last night troubleshooting 2 issues with a bunch of self professed experts. I got one resolved and one KIND OF resolved.

There is still so much shit to tackle I doubt I'll be playing things like Star Citizen or Planetside 2 by the end of the week with 2-4 hours a day of time spent on trying to set things up.

This is basically inexcusable.

I have to run

sudo ethtool -s ethname speed 100 duplex full autoneg off

to get proper internet speeds every time I boot.

I've tried turning off auto negotiation and setting speed to 100 in the GUI and it apparently doesn't work.

I've tried adding the command to the whateverthefuckitwas.rc file to get it to execute automatically and it doesn't work.

Now, if you can magically tell me how to get the Intel I219-V network interface working properly at gigabit speeds when nobody else has been able to yet I'll suck your dick.

If not fuck off.

>>58109467

just tested - running commands from /etc/rc.local works fine.

`sudo nano /etc/rc.local`

add your shit in there. Save. Reboot.

>>58109515

I've already done that.

If I add the line in rc.local, save it, and reboot network speed defaults to 1000mbps which isn't playing nice with the kernal or something.

I can confirm it's in rc.local by opening the file up and verifying the edit.

It's just running before network is up or something and doesn't actually apply the change, I have to do it manually. The fact that the GUI option for these settings isn't working either is inexcusable on its own.

I mean, I usually dont take seriously anyone who uses word cuck, but now seriously, did to anyone happen that windows decided to just close all your shit and reboot ?

Because for me (win10) it stayed the same as in 7, it tells me there are updates and install s them and when I decide to shutdown, it goes to classical screen of installing updates 1/9999 please dont turn down your computer.

Sometimes it is a bit annoying because I have notebook and need to carry it around, but I have never experienced something as drastic as internet memes.

how can autists go through intricate steps to set up their shitty linux OS but can't seem to manage to use windows at all? It auto updates because old people and retards don't ever update their shit and wonder what happened when they get fucked, you can stop auto updates it's not even hard. Crazy how a "tech" board can't even use one of the easiest operating systems to use: Windows.

>>58107774
If I have to jump through hoops to use my os, why shouldn't I use linux where jumping through hoops is easy?

>>58109426
I'm sorry, but your Linux distro is not responsible for proprietary drivers support. That's not that they don't care: they simply can't develop native drivers, so they would need to develop free drivers through reverse-engineering, for the purpose of which they maybe don't have the financial and human resources.

A lot of computers (as my almost-defunct HP) have poor proprietary drivers support (for me it was principally visual glitches), that's why you should document yourself before buying a computer you consider installing Linux on it or basically any 500$+ computer; so instead of complaining why wouldn't you give them 10 bucks so they would solve your problem for everyone.

I'm dead fucking serious. I'll paypal $10 to any nigger that can guaranteed get my onboard LAN working properly at 1000mbps speeds.

I'm trying to move to Linux because I'm not a fan of some of the decisions Microsoft has made with Windows 10, not because I'm a cheap shit.

If there was a commercial version of Linux that cost $100 but worked as well with my hardware as Windows and didn't require multiple hours of troubleshooting for basic functionality I would gladly pay it.

This is bait but here comes the answer.

Pic related. On 17th I disabled all updates, blocked MS IPs and since then Windows couldn't even check for updates, let alone update anything.

>>58110814
What did you use to block the MS IPs? Just the built in firewall?

If so, mind sharing the rule?

>>58110857
I opened the hosts file with admin priviledges and added these lines from the paste and saved:

http://pastebin.com/anjYNCj3

Hosts file should be on the boot drive at \Windows\System32\drivers\etc

>>58110857
I also used the Local Group policy editor to edit all update policies in such a way that they are basically disabled or delayed for months. Disabled telemetry too.

I'm using the Enterprise version, tho.

>>58111050
>>58111074

Ah yeah, am very familiar with hosts editing, and I made all the group policy changes as soon as I made a fresh install. I prefer to make higher level changes when possible. I wonder if the firewall rules would even be respected.

Thanks for the IPs and domains, anon.

It was in the idea that everyone with such problems would give 10$ to solve your LAN problem for everyone who experiences it.

Also the best thing would've been to buy another computer. That's too late now. I would honestly suggest you either to reinstall Windows 10 or to get a Thinkpad: http://ktgee.net/tpg.

>>58111302
You should have set that to Disabled.

>If the status for this policy is set to Disabled, any updates that are available on Windows Update must be downloaded and installed manually. To do this, search for Windows Update using Start.

So basically, it won't even notify you, you'll choose when you want to check for updates and download them manually.

This is a brand new build, but the fact of the matter is there's not much of an excuse for brand new, non-obscure hardware to have these kind of issues. It's a desktop specifically for GPU heavy use, primarily games.

I already have a laptop running just fine for bullshit.

Sometimes I open up my windows 10 laptop and it did a surprise update without even notifying first. It will even wake itself up from sleep mode to do it.

I don't really mind, but I hate opening it back up and seeing a notification that Speecy was incompatible for some reason so M$ took the liberty of uninstalling it for me

I'll switch distros if it will make a difference, but it has nothing to do with the distro. It's a problem with the linux kernal and drivers.

I'm brand new to linux, I'm trying to make an honest switch away from Windows as a primary OS. I'm encountering issues that I honestly shouldn't be, and trying to describe them to the linux community for perspective.

Unfortunately the linux community is filled with holier-than-thou "not a real distro" people like yourself who want to assign the blame for my issues to some shortcoming on my part. I shouldn't even have to consider compiling my own driver for my network adapter just to get it to work at the speeds it was designed for.

Linux certified hardware is a bullshit meme, too. That link you listed for certified hardware lists prebuilds only. I'm just not interested in another manufacturers idea of what hardware should be in my PC. I'm using late-model components from reputable vendors, and nothing really out there. All pretty standard shit.

That is isn't supported properly is a great example of the linux community being way too entrenched in 10 year old technology. No linux developers seem to have any incentive to make their shit work with modern hardware.

>>58112250
