Not what the distro meant by release

I ran into this with HDMI on motherboard, not always though. My remedy was, since I had KDE connect on phone and PC, that I run a display shut down and wake command from the phone. It seems to wake something up in the OS

Last time I read about it, it said don’t install KDE-connect on the GNOME system , just use GS connect, or it breaks stuff

There were a few in the last couple of years, but not a widespread virus like Windows. There was a hiding in plain sight virus. Basically just files named similarly and a mechanism to hide itself when you ran ‘top’ type commands,

For what you are doing SketchUp might be the best tool. Its easy to work with and good with architectural stuff.

Add Stract.com it is a little behind in web crawling of current info, but the results are like how google used to be around 2010. Just relevant content info, no ads (yet) and occasional randomness

I have had Windows control the power setting of the card before, there were some settings in windows to alter how power was handled for the network adapter. Also some dell BIOSes have power settings for the mono/network that you can alter if its acting weirdly.

Silent and fanless: look for a Monsterlabo case. It is all heatsink. Buy a fankess power supply, or buy a PSU that is overrates for the load and fanless under 30% load.

Its the setup I have. I can render video and other work loads and you don’t even know the system is on

I found M ITX on eBay for cheap $50, the ad said used mobo (10 available), but it arrived absolutely factor clean and had CPU cover on, etc. I assume old stock rather than used?? And found a CPU for $40. Monsterlabo fanless case cost me the most at $200
