I’m running Pop!OS on a different old laptop, so I know the basic functionality works out of the box, but that I’m going to have to resort to the terminal to get the express keys mapped on the Wacom.
And the NAS connection has been a second-class citizen; it’s been difficult to just browse to it in a lot of apps. I suspect I need to properly mount a the NAS as a drive for it to play nice.
Neither are things I’ve bothered with on the Pop system since I’ve just been using it as a web portal, but I want the new device to be more functional.
It wasn’t that difficult for me to set up my NAS to automount in my fstab file. I’m pretty sure I just followed this guide and went into my router to make sure the NAS was assigned a static IP address on my LAN. Until I set the IP, it would almost always get the same IP address from my router, but on the rare occasion where it didn’t it would cause some of my self-hosted media services to fail to start at boot when mounting it failed, and it would bork the whole thing. Still, that was more user error than anything else.
