Oracle Linux 9.2 is cool
 

Have been running Oracle Linux for several years.
They finally included wifi support in the latest kernel. Now at 9.2.

IMO the best Redhat alternative without all the licensing nonsense. A replacement for CentOS if you will.

I did not want to deviate from the Redhat compatible systems so the Ubuntu/Debian/etc. tree is not an option.

Just out of curiosity, have you looked at AlmaLinux?

Wifi wasn't there, because (like RHEL) Oracle Linux was designed for SERVERS, not desktop use. Want to stay in the Red Hat ecosystem? Then use Fedora...that's exactly what it's for, since it's (essentially) the development branch of RHEL. With support for loads of 'consumer' devices, because it was designed to be used on consumer/desktop systems.

Interesting. How does it compare to OL9.2?

Does it come with Gnome window manager or something else?

As with ANY version of Linux, you can run whatever desktop environment you want. Want Gnome? Great, us it...or KDE, Enlightenment, XFCE, or whatever else you want. Again, Oracle Linux is Red Hat except with tweaks to support Oracle's database...nothing more. Have you read anything on their website about what it is, what it does, or who it's aimed at??? Or read anything about Fedora??

You make me feel like I am the only person here running Oracle Linux.

Please tell me there is someone else running it. )

There is absolutely nothing wrong with it. And I am a picky installer. If I have any issues during the install, I abandon the distro and try something else.

There is nothing 'wrong' with it, but again...that was designed for SERVERS, specifically for running Oracle in an optimized fashion. Again, 'consumer' distros support more consumer hardware, like bluetooth/wifi/sound/better video/etc.

Use whatever you like, but do not be surprised when things (like the aforementioned wifi problem) come up.

Only problem is Gnome 40 that comes with it really sucks. Inferior to whatever came with it. I modified it with extensions to make it usable, but. Wonder if I should go back to XFCE or something else entirely. Not really Oracle's fault.
