DejaVu Sans for basically everything. DejaVuSans Mono for things I need a monospace font for. Nerdfonts Symbols for various icons/symbols to show icons in Neovim or Waybar for example.
That’s…a lot of dependencies to manually get. This wouldn’t have worked. And I need a reproducible method so I can do this fully offline without having to match apt to anything online.
If the dependencies are in the repos you’ve added since, then apt-rdepends should be able to pull them.
I had to keep chaining grep -v to ignore packages that didn’t exist but the result was a success.
Had a 100X, back then with 2GB RAM. Worked OOTB with Linux w/o trouble, all hardware supported. Good times. Later, starting your browser maxed out the RAM so not a viable option anymore.
Nowadays I can happily recommend a HP Stream 11". Works perfectly with Fedora 39, good battery life. (Obviously you don’t want to use such a machine for more than casual work/internet surfing. But as a cheap/solid travel netbook, it is perfect. Typing this message on it.)
I have a Lenovo Yoga 6 13" that I’ve had a pretty good experience with. Screen rotation didn’t work properly on Ubuntu 20.04 when I tried it back then, but I switched to Fedora 36 KDE, which worked great for over a year. I’m now on Debian 12 + KDE with an equally good experience. Fingerprint reader is not supported, but I didn’t want to use it anyway.
Back in the day I used a surface pro 3 dual booting windows and linux. Linux didn’t have the drivers to support the pen back then so I used windows and one note for note taking.
