I think that just means it arrived after they packed the stuff for delivery that day already and since it is not urgent, it doesn’t get added last minute or so. Sadly no, still not here… at least tomorrow is wednesday 🙂 So two whole days just waiting in the depot roundabout 35km from me. Could have got it faster by walking there and getting it myself 😁 ---

Launched! Windows 11 in this case but my SSD was already pre installed with a Windows 11/Linux Mint combo. Will have to check how Mint holds up. Mainly because I took my sweet time unboxing and reading the manual, it took me 20 minutes to DIY it and boot it up. I’m curious to how it holds up in general. I’ll be running several benchmarks Hardware list: - Ryzen 5 7640u - SK Hynix P31 Gold 2 TB - Crucial 2x 32 GB 5600 MHz (CT2K32G56C46S5) ![20231017_213618](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex001/uploads/framework3/original/3X/1/6/16583a5524e5fa91006b35599afdedfa530d3bf6.jpeg) FedEx once again visited the wrong house so right before they left I noticed and intercepted them before they were gone. ---

My FW is now operational with the kit from Kingston (KF556S40IBK2-64)! Thanks again to @0xFF and others for reporting working modules early on! There are apparently some instances where the 5200s are working (not sure which, yet), but I would avoid 5200s if you are still shopping around (or can still return yours). Not worth the hassle. Besides, who doesn’t like more speed?! Best of luck to all that are still waiting! ---

> [@coucouf](#): > > Also yes Debian stable moves slowly but if you’re ready to cope with rare breakages, testing is close to being a rolling distro. Seconded. I had been using Debian from about Woody (3.0) to Squeeze (6), when I moved my daily drivers to Gentoo, which I’ve been using since. For much of my Debian time I used “testing” and never had any major issues, sans the odd dependency problem which would resolve no more than a day or two later. Even today for non-daily driver uses (e.g. Raspberry Pi, live USB drive) I use Debian and this thing continues to meet its main selling point as “rock solid”. Even with the “testing” branch which, as @coucouf points out, is pretty similar to a “rolling” distro. And compatibility is high as many third-party packages come in .deb (or .rpm). I would certainly recommend people to try Debian stable, or testing if stable moves too slow for their liking. In contrast, Ubuntu gives me pains and aches every… single… time… I’ve tried to use it (incl 22.10) until I ultimately lost all confidence. I’m obviously very biased on the matter, but in my view Ubuntu, as it is today, is an absolute disaster and train wreck. For regular 6mo release distros Fedora is, in my view, far superior.
