Re: System76 Galago UltraPro (Gala1) power issues ..

Just a quick update .. I've put the bios file on a bootable usb stick. Been trying to get it to startup, but no luck. Must have pressed
the power button over 200 times and no go. Perhaps it made it's final startup the last time I messed with it. Anyway, will keep

Why?

the power button for long periods of time.

System76 Galago UltraPro (Gala1) power issues ..

Hello all, Thinking it might be time to retire/toss my laptop from 2014. The problem with the thing is - its not turning on. It might take 1 or 100 power button presses to get it to power up. Once it does, it boots up and runs fine. Doing updates is a real pain in the butt. The power supply seems fi...

Re: Looking for a good working "todo list" program ..

Thank You Mike .. Will definitely put it on my list. No, I'm using xfce, mx-19.2 pp.

gimcrack .. Thanks I'll add those to my test list.
The script (sn) idea is very interesting. I got sn and I'll change it so it calls a different editor, or I'll try out micro.

Thank You!
