Welp, Linux Mint LMDE just does not like my hardware. I couldn't successfully get through updates due to "Unknown key type PC_SUPER_LEVEL2" errors popping up all over the place, breaking GRUB and some other things. I decided to give Pop!_OS another whirl on this machine.

@machias sorry to hear that!! I got Mint running on this old MacBook Pro - only had to get a different driver for the trackpad

@Computeforloot This is the first time I've run into this issue. I might mess around with it again to see what's going on with the hardware but in the meanwhile I'm enjoying Pop!_OS for the moment.

@machias dug out this old 11” MBAir and set up Ubuntu on it…surprisingly, I’m having pretty good luck with Linux on Macs 🤷🏻‍♂️

@Computeforloot The server running my personal stuff here at home is a 2011 Mac mini upgraded with an SSD running Debian. It works remarkably well.

@machias Pop!_OS rocks! Switched to it from Mint many years ago.

@gme I haven't played around with Pop!_OS in my desktop in quite a while. I've been messing around for the past hour and I remember why I enjoyed it so much.
