Cross compiling with -march and distributing the packages over the internet and keeping up with it for the next 5-10 years is difficult.

Hopefully all the "partnerships" (or whatever the current marketing speak for this sort of this is) that come out of this will be announced loudly enough that we know which vendors to avoid. I mean, good for Canonical - the more money they make, the better it is for all of us - but, eesh...

The URLs for apt look normal on that image
Code:cat /etc/apt/sources.list deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ focal main restricted universe deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ focal-security main restricted universe deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ focal-updates main restricted universe
Code:ls -1 /usr/lib/modules 5.13.0-1007-intel

Clear Linux on the Atom Z runs just fine without a GUI involved. The GUI just makes the CPU constantly heat throttle, worse with Windows.
This was a year ago, so I am not sure how well it has held up.
