_FULLSCREEN behaves weird in some Linux OS installations... - mnrvovrfc - 08-15-2023

... and combinations of budget computers. This was on Spiral Linux purposely upgraded to "Bookworm". In other words, this was a Debian clone which had v11 "Bullseye" base, and I upgraded it to v12 "Bookworm" base which has been on since mid-June.

This was tried with bplus' program with the fish. See screenshot below.

This is from a 1-1/2-year-old "ewaste" candidate:

"ewaste" means do not buy from ASUS, or at least do not buy this particular model because it has a poor battery. This could be the last time I could use this computer, for its possible refusal to deal with the battery if it can't charge it. I had another laptop with SSD crap out on me in this manner but I could still use it without the battery. I cannot use this ASUS computer without the battery because... I have to remove the screws on the bottom of the bulk side of the unit to get to it. :O
