You can. Be aware that using one home partition for numerous distros is not recommended because of config files conflict. You can however symlink between home partitions.

Tell me you're a corporate sellout without telling me you're a corporate sellout.
In any case, since you use SSD, don't forget to enable TRIM 😉
That's it. Self hosted, personalisable, and that can be used network-wide (as a DHCP server) AND as a VPN (in correlation with piVPN)
Okay first question is : is MATE absolutely necessary ?
If not, I would advise you to switch to a distro that uses GNOME or KDE. I'd go for Zorin OS which is really perfect for anyone beginning on Linux.
In any case, I have a solution that should work no matter the device. It requires you to have libinput and libinput-gestures installed (rather than fusuma which I found buggy and laggy)
You can find it here : https://lemmy.one/comment/2189433
I tried my best to make it beginner-friendly — even if it is not. Don't read the first paragraph which is KDE specific.
GE is Glorious Eggroll, a FOSS contributor to proton that put his own tweaks.
Looks promising ! I really wanna try it
This is no help, I know, but... OpenSuSE behaves weirdly. On my old laptop every distro would work, exception made for SuSE who wouldn't even boot from LiveCD.
So, maybe it's one of those weird SuSE quirks...
If you use KDE with wayland, then :
- You can switch desktops horizontally with three or four fingers
- You can only switch desktops vertically with three fingers
- By default, four fingers vertical opens present windows or something like that
To be able to use four fingers swipe up, you need to disable present windows first.
Go to settings > workspace behaviour > desktop effects and unclick desktop grid and present windows (in the hope that you have no use for them)
Then you need to install evemu and libinput-gestures (if you're on Arch, it's in the pacman repo and the AUR respectively)
Once you have it installed, run in your terminal evemu-record. It will list all of your devices. Shut down the program with Ctrl + C and look at the event for your keyboard. Once this is done note it down.
Create a new file
nano sendkey.sh
Copy the content of this code in the new file but replace EVDEVICE=/dev/input/event4 with your keyboard.
#!/bin/bash
# sendkey.sh
EVDEVICE=/dev/input/event4
for key in $@; do
evemu-event $EVDEVICE --type EV_KEY --code KEY_$key --value 1 --sync
done
# reverse order
for key in $@; do
evemu-event $EVDEVICE --type EV_KEY --code KEY_$key --value 0 --sync
done
Ctrl +O then CTRL + X to save then quit nano. Once it is done run this command : chmod +x sendkey.sh then open the gestures app and start mapping away. The interface is very intuitive. What you want to do is click on the little + at the top bar then select the motion you want to bind (in your case swipe + up + 4 fingers) and in the command at the bottom you write /home/YOURUSERNAME/sendkey.sh LEFTMETA W
And there it is. You can map pretty any keybind to any event with this. Hope this helps.
