Any good Debian-based OS for a laptop?

I’m planning to put Debian-based operating system onto my Surface Laptop Gen 1, following the guide (linux-surface). Any good Debian-based Linux recommendations? For now I’m considering AntiX (lightweight debian) and normal Debian.

P.S. I’ve installed pure Debian, as everyone suggests. Thanks for advice!

drspod,

You could try VanillaOS 2.0 Beta which is a Debian-based immutable distro, planned for final release later this year.

Just use debian

Sammy,

My Son, SpiralLinux, is the neatest lil package of Debian you could ever want. It comes with all the Bluetooth and Wi-Fi drivers I need and it actually has an installer (Calamari’s I think?) that’s efficient and easy to understand.

Other than that-…. Uuuuhhhhh have you tried Hanna Montana OS?

fin,

Hannah Montana Linux – a live Linux distribution based on Kubuntu with a Hannah Montana theme. It has been created to “attract young users to Linux”.

Thanks that’s attractive

electric_nan,

Linux Mint Debian Edition.

jonwyattphillips,

Check out projectbluefin.io, the developer experience has lots of goodies built in.

It’s a immutable/atomic fedora silverblue spin based on cloud native principles.

barsquid,

I agree with you but I assume they want Debian for a reason.

jonwyattphillips,

distrobox enter debian-toolbox :)

jaagruk,

MX Linux

Can confirm. I use Debian on a laptop and it’s great.

How lightweight do you really need to go? I have a Lenovo “barely worth calling a chromebook” with 4GB/64GB/2 core N4000. It’s fine with Gnome on Bookworm.
