  Wouldn’t surprise me, but the point was that it’s fixable in Windows but not the Linux distro I have tried.

    I’d ask which ones you’ve tried but I can tell you already made up your mind.

      So far I’ve tried Ubuntu, Linux Mint, and Pop OS. Although I only briefly tried Pop OS. Didn’t stick around long enough to see if it would have issues as well. There were other issues with that one that I can’t quite remember…I think it was that often the OS would decide not to boot. Something about a weird compatibility issue with the BIOS or something.

        Hmm. All Debian based. I wonder if something not Debian based would work.
