So, Bruce's PC now dual-boots to either Windows 11 or #CanaimaGNULinux.

Bruce was saying "Take off the Windows!" But I have been bitten too many times to do that. There's ALWAYS some document you forget that you NEED that's on the Windows partition, so I have learned to leave it alone.

So that, folks is how you get rid of a snail infestation. You sprinkle a little Venezuela peace and love on it. ❤️

#CanaimaGNULinux Creative edition comes up with a Gnome desktop and

Blender
GIMP
Ardour
LMMS
Mixx
Qjackctl
Guitarix
Meterbridge
Inkscape
Krita
Darktable
Digikam
Pikopixel
FreeCAD
Kdenlive
Shotcut
Openshot
OBS Studio
FFMpeg
StopMotion

Once the cheatcode was applied, the menus all came up in English.

There are some menu options and applications that still come up in Spanish. I assume those are written locally by the distro producers.

Getting Canaima Live to boot to English, US keyboard

At the GRUB boot menu,

hit TAB to edit the boot command line
add "locales=en_US.UTF-8 keyboard-layouts=us" to the end of the line

You do NOT have to backspace over the previously existing text;just add that to the end of the line. Then, hit Enter to boot.

It will come up in English, with a US keyboard-layout.

But I said, "Wait! there's more!"

So, I showed him the applications that came with Linux Mint in the menus, LibreOffice and what not. All good.

But your boy, Bruce, is a musician. One of those guys who could just pick up an instrument and start to play. Born to music, in the most musical valley on the island.

I said, "Check this!"

I booted up Canaima Creative GNU/Linux 8.3!!

All the media/video/audio/studio apps!!

"This is what you want!" #CanaimaGNULinux
