Anyone got a good working Linux Tablet?
Define good?
I’ve got an older Surface Pro running Fedora and the install was a little annoying to get everything working, but like, it’s perfectly fine for tablet-y things as long as you realize that there’s really really not a good tablet UI or apps that have good tablet UIs on Linux.
I went with MAKE UI BIGGERERER as the tablet UI option and it’s sufficient.
Have you ever tried a stylus with it? I’ve never tried using a stylus on Linux but I’m curious about it
I don’t have the stylus, sorry. That got lost years ago on a trip and I never used it enough to justify replacing it (this was before I moved to Linux on it).
Something like this?
There’s the MinisForum V3
- I’m unsure about the long term reliability as MinisForum hasn’t stated anything in terms of Linux support (plus see all the cons in the thread linked above)
if you can, I’d suggest waiting a year as more likely than not we’ll see more mainstream companies offering a tablet with explicitly stated Linux support
I’m using “find . -name ‘*-FLAIR’ -type d -ls -exec cp -lr -t …/…/…/media_links/ {} ; | grep ‘Aug 18’” to make hardlinks for directories created on a certain date. However, I always get an error saying that it can’t create hardlinks for a folder that doesn’t even match the find criteria, while it works for the folders that I wanted. So, everything works, but I just wanna know why I’m getting that error. Any help? lmk if u need more info
Your
grepis getting the output of find piped into it, so there’s nothing in the find command itself (which has the-execin there) to filter it down so it applies to everythingfindfinds. You’re filtering for ‘Aug 18’ afterfindhas already-execthecp -ltrcommand.You probably want this:
find . -name '*-FLAIR' -name '*Aug 18*' -type d -ls -exec cp -lr -t ../../../media_links/ {} \;Oh the files don’t have the date in their names. Is -name still gonna work with ‘Aug 18’? I’m parsing for the date shown by -ls.
Try swapping the positions of
-name ‘*-FLAIR’and-type dPerhaps you need to use -ctime parameter on find command.
That might be a lifesaver! I’ll try it today. I also see there’s a -cmin parameter which lets me be even more specific. Thanks
