LMDE, MX, Ubuntu etc are based on Debian. Mint is based on Ubuntu, so Debian. Chimera/Endeavour are based on Arch, etc.

In the linux world, you have a linux kernel, systemd or init, a bunch of gnu utils, a window system like X or Wayland, whatever DE you want (Xfce, gnome, kde, name it) and a packaging system (apt, yum, pacman), but for me, it's all the same.

If you want something different, try a BSD distro then? FreeBSD, OpenBSD, GhostBSD, etc

I'm Canadian (yeah, a colony) and I despice monarchy, they are completely out of touch

In Quebec we dream about Ontario healthcare. People even drive to Hawkesbury to go to the hospital there instead of Montreal.

Yes, but it's buggy, it often freezes, it also consumes ~5% battery per hour, even if I kill FF before going to bed, the next morning it took like 40% of the battery in 8h night.

500'000 to 1 million immigrants per year is not sustainable especially since there is no housing

I only use FF in Linux, I tried on Android but it's somewhat bad 😔

Once Upon A Time, season 6, just watched the musical episode!

In windows, save the recovery key (to an external USB key for instance), it is a text file. Then in Linux double click the partition in Thunar or your file manager and it will ask you for the key.

Yes for /boot/efi you're right but /boot is ext4

EFI with grub

It works with 2 or 3 AA batteries, not that much power

So I don't know :-(

Have you disabled Fast Boot in your BIOS ?

yes of course

sudo modprobe -r iwlwifi

Hibernation or suspend? 2 different things. For hibernation you need a swap space at least the size of your RAM, and then the laptop is powered off after this.

For suspend, in your dmesg, see if you have:

ACPI: PM: (supports S0 S3 S4 S5)

if you have S3 your laptop should lost only a few percent.

do a:

cat /sys/power/mem_sleep

what does it says?

New CPU/BIOS/PC/Laptop only support something called "s0 idle" meaning it is like a cellphone, everything is running, and each drivers/components/os should enter low power themselves, if they do not, well, your battery is draining.

S3 means "suspend to RAM", only RAM is powered and everything else is off, your laptop can stay like this for days. I don't know who decided that this is bad and your laptop should be like your cellphone, always running?!?

well, are you sure the script is executed? I don't know systemd enough :-(

First, do a test in command line modprobe -r iwlwifi

then suspend your laptop, resume it after a few seconds then do

modprobe iwlwifi

and see if wifi is working

Use MX Linux instead, I will never go back to something else

you have to replace the ## with &&

the name should be iwlwifi

You need to unload your wifi module before suspend.

Without systemd it's easy:

create a file /etc/pm/config.d/config containing:

    
HOOK_BLACKLIST="wireless"
SUSPEND_MODULES=”NAME_OF_YOUR_WIFI_MODULE”
SUSPEND_MODULES=”wl”

  

With systemd try this

create a file /usr/lib/systemd/system-sleep/fix-wifi.sh containing (fuck this editor, replace the "##" with "&&") :

        #!/bin/bash
    [ "$1" = "post" ] ## exec /usr/sbin/modprobe NAME_OF_YOUR_WIFI_MODULE
    [ "$1" = "pre" ] ## exec /usr/sbin/modprobe -r NAME_OF_YOUR_WIFI_MODULE
    exit 0


  

and make it executable with chmod 755 /usr/lib/systemd/system-sleep/fix-wifi.sh

what? suspend works flawlessly for years

It's happening for years, 10+ for sure, in Québec squirrels are eating the plastic around the cable. Some Costco light strings were very appreciated years ago by them. I thought it was a well known event?!?
