Asus ROG Flow Z13
https://tyflopodcast.net/asus-rog-flow-z13/Been playing with Solus Linux recently. I like that things like installing Blender also pulls in AMD rocm clr and friends and gets Cycles support working without any real futzing around.
The Solus installer doesn't give a lot of filesystem options, err, perhaps more fairly, options that I like. No zfs and simple btrfs. I converted the root disk into a btrfs raid1 mirror after the fact but it would be cool if that was possible in the installer. Maybe I missed it. I can live with btrfs, I guess. Ha.
Running the Plasma spin (for now?). Will take a hard look at Qt based Budgie 11 when it comes out.
Very nice, polished distro. Thinking about putting it on my main box since I've got btrfs retroactive mirroring figured out. First time using (i.e. trusting) btrfs so maybe I should let some more water go under Solus' keel before going 'all in'.
Too bad Alpine doesn't have the same level of rocm support. I get it. It is what it is.

One of the main reasons I want to use #ubuntu 26.04 is for the #framework desktop. 😅 All that #amd #rocm package handling. 😇
I didn't need more reasons for the release. 😁

Last week I provided benchmarks to quantify how the AMD Strix Halo graphics performance has evolved since launch one year ago, in today's article is a look at how the Zen 5 CPU performance with the flagship Ryzen AI Max+ 395 has evolved under Linux in the year since these exciting APUs began making their way to high-end laptops and desktops.
Nachtrag zum Thema Blender, den ich trotz der Installation der restlichen Pakete aus dem Meta-Paket für ROCm zu keiner Meinungsänderung habe überzeugen können.
Scheint wohl an meiner Karte zu liegen, hat wohl falsche Architektur.
Vllt. mache ich noch den Versuch mit der von Blender selbst gebauten Anwendung. So wichtig ist es mir, zumindest damit, nicht.
Danke für die Unterstützung.
