>proprietary hardware

if you had any intellect at all you'd research the cause of this, make it into an exploitable bug, turn it into a priv esc exploit, and sell it for tens of thousands of dollars.

>>60131327
That is very harmful to other users and goes against the GNU philosophy. What do you have to say for yourself?

>>60130983
If you were to say you were having issues with Broadcom, then I'd believe you. Realtek though? Eh, something smells fishy, and it's not just OP's mom.

>>60131386
I'm not having problems with Realtek, that works properly. I'm having problems with Linux.

>>60130983
this is what happens when you write your kernel in C.

ok

>>60132239
you can try kernel 4.8 from the repos

>>60132340
what change from 4.4 to 4.8 is possibly going to make it suddenly work?

>>60132358
Do you even know what a kernel is?

the kernel is the core of an OS, starting first and handling low level stuff, including i/o.

>mfw I failed installing arch twice the other day because I forgot to run grub-install and just did grub-mkconfig on it's own
That microcode update section on their guide is really distracting and made me forget it.

>>60132617
Just remember that grub-install is initial setup, and mkconfig is for unfucking an already set up machine

>>60131327
>and sell it for tens of thousands of dollars.
Only to have it patched the same day. Good luck with that on Windows.

>>60132617
you can always arch-chroot from the install environment and update grub

>>60132677
Yeah, I did that the second time when I realized my mistake, but the first time during install I thought "why not try btrfs" and blamed it on that.

You should grab a kdump. Unfortunately, with Ubuntu recompiling your kernel is a bigger pain than it's worth, so it's probably fucked until Ubuntu upstreams the newer kernel. Try Void Linux or Gentoo and use the latest kernel.

Wouldn't you have to release the virus source code under the GPL?

>>60130983
Well, you are kind of a dumbass for not checking compatibility before you bought the hardware.

So the 120 IQ guy can't even spell kernel correctly

>>60133087

Memeing aside, the OP brings up a valid point.

GNU/Linux still has trouble with drivers, especially when it comes to newer hardware. I have only had success with GNU/Linux on machines older than 3 or 4 years.

>>60133725
Linux is just a kernel. The manufactures not writing drivers for a specific OS is not the fault of the OS. That being said, hardware compatibility is one of the first things you should check on if you want to use Linux full time.

>>60133752
Yeah that's kind of what I'm getting at.
