Debian is, to put it bluntly: a pain in the ass!

P.S.:

If you think Debian is “too picky”, have a look at these:

Distributions like these are basically for FOSS masochists. They are made out of 100% FOSS software. So, if there is no FOSS software available that is compatible with your hardware in any way, you are out of luck and need to buy hardware fitting the 100% FOSS requirements. :smiley:
