Legit curious, how important is boot time to the average user?
Legit curious, how important is boot time to the average user?
LLike, past a certain point, I totally understand. 5 minutes seems excessive today, and I'd start to get impatient, but we're not talking about that.
ZOooh, is disc encryption supported now??
Aalways was?
Arebasing to bazzite-gnome, its taking its time
Tyou need a physical keyboard
ZEvery boot?
Awith tpm unlock no
Aotherwise yes
Tthis is a deck
WFor me Windows 10 boots in 26 seconds and Bazzite boots in 58 seconds. But it's an unfair comparison as Windows is on NVME and Bazzite is on SSD. But I don't actually watch it boot so yeah, it really doesn't matter
Adecks dont have tpms?
Tis that supported?
Ti actually never looked into that lol
ZThere's TPM 2.0 settings in the bios so afaik it does?
OI have a couple of average users in my family, and they just don't have anything to do on their machines that waiting a few more seconds would interfere with. Boot times are under a minute in all cases so it's not something they think about.
Mit’s okay if you literally never want to leave bazzite, otherwise messing with secure boot means you have to use steamos’ recovery image no matter what afterward with secure boot stuff
WI grew up with 5+ minute boot times so anything under a minute is amazing lol
OWe've come so far from the old days when you could turn the computer on, then read the next chapter in a book by the time it's actually ready to use
RI think with modern computers: 30 seconds is expected and if it goes above 2 minutes it's taking too long
ZI had a 3200 RPM disk until 2016 I'm glad it boots at all
RWe're not using mechanical hard drives anymore, shouldn't be taking over 2 minutes to boot anymore
Abazzite-gnome is 19s
Aubuntu doing its magic i guess
Ahow much is my setup lets see
ZBetter post some graphs
MTime to press that esc button during boot
EAntheas :pleading:
MI’ve noticed long shutdown times lately on a bunch of distros as too, not sure why
AYea I reported a bug aboutbit
EAntheas I love Bazzite Loki
ADidn't hear anything
Rtoo much crap refuses to be killed these days
AAnd drm bug prevents shutdown
AAmd
EOr should I say Antheussy bazzussy Lokussy
Qi think it's cool when the startup time is under 10 seconds
RIt always amazes me when I see a chromebook start from cold boot in in like 6 seconds
QThat's probably because those are made to be lightweight
EThat’s because people underestimate Chromebooks
QBut even Chrome OS Flex starts up pretty quickly from a USB 2.0 flash drive
Hyou could probably use dropbear ssh to remote unlock the drive too, but ive never tried it with fedora xd
ZI always thought Chromebooks and ChromeOS is pretty cool. Sad that it's so googlified
Hmuch less atomic
Hwouldn't be surprised if there are some caveats to that on atomic
EBoth are bad but these days I’d rather run a Googlified laptop than a Microsofified laptop
ZI'm tempted to encrypt my disk... I wonder if I can configure it to unlock automatically with my yubikey
Amy setup hits sddm at 14s and is fully logged in around 18s kde
LIs there a guide for this? I'm really interested
QI agree
QMicrosoft's software just sucks these days
