Thanks man. I don't ever recall drivers and firmware being this difficult on debian based distros

Very interesting. I haven't even tried hooking up the docking station... Just the part in the user guide that states certain drivers or firmware must be installed first kinda deterred me. Maybe I will try hooking it up and seeing what happens. Who knows, maybe the dock will help install those drivers automatically

I was actually reading about maybe using wine? I know nothing about wine other than it allows for windows packages to be downloaded I think... Hmmm so maybe that could work

Hmmm no recollection of yhe name of that program? Drivers and firmware for dell are only available for windows 10,11 and Ubuntu like 20.4 or something. Wtf! This shouldnt be so difficult

As far as I know on my main account I'm running xorg but the separate account with deepin does not specify. I think default is Wayland

I tried installing several times per different guides. I'll do my best to remember

Sudo dnf install "deepin desktop"

Sudo dnf install @deepin-desktop-environment

Sudo dnf group install "deepin desktop"

Probably one more I can't remember

Tried that but didn't work. Maybethere's specific tweaks I have to make first?

Or I wonder about gnome boxes....

I think the issue stemmed from my failed attempt to install deepin desktop. I removed the DE, but im sure there were lingering files or apps
