And yeah, deal, you can be the guinea pig on Steam OSI think I'd best stick with Linux Mint to start with, if nothing else so my dad can help me set it up. I'm not as tech savvy as I used to be... I guess that's a result of the complacency that using Windows breeds
Currently running a backup of my Debian system from a live disk of the latest, greatest steam OS (holoiso). Since Windoze no longer resides on that machine at all, Ima test drivin' the Arch Linux based Steam system. The latest kernel update in Debian fixed my kernel panic at boot, but broke a bunch of my games.
I'm sorry to hear that. I'm afraid I couldn't say whether POPOS is any better because I've only used it for a few games so far. Come next year when Windows support ends for Windows 10, the plan is to reuse its partition for another installation of Linux... so that I can use POPOS as my main and the other to "distro hop" as much as I need to, try things out etc. Frankly I'd love to drop Windows now but I'm playing a game with my sister and it needs Windows, sadly, so we've basically got a year to finish the game but I doubt we will in time.
