This sounds suspiciously like a hardware issue to me. What model of computer is it and what model is the old SSD? You may need a firmware update on either the laptop or the SSD.

Unfortunately, I’ve had a hard time locating the typeface that they use in their word mark, so I’ve been unable to create the “Debian Edition” text. The word mark that I’m using is a vector file and not a font.

It’s possible that the word mark uses custom glyphs, because I don’t see any mention of the typeface on the official logo GitHub page.

If you have any luck locating the typeface, let me know and I’ll be happy to add LMDE.

Inkscape isn’t necessary. Any app that can open SVG files should work.

I suppose that I’m just too lazy after spending tens of hours locating 71 different high resolution logo files, a bunch of different word marks, researching and installing various typefaces, creating layers, groups, precisely aligning and resizing stuff 71 different times, converting all the text into outlines, hiding all the layers, creating a repository, uploading to GitHub, and then offering it to anyone for free.

It IS accessible. SVG is a standard format that can be opened by any number of different programs across multiple operating systems.

Just because you chose not to install one of those programs is not my problem.

I don’t get mad when I need to open a pdf but I don’t have a pdf reader. I install a fucking pdf reader.

Get off of your horse, dude.

I am of the opinion that if we keep waiting for the “perfect” Linux tablet, it will never exist. The specs of this unit are head and shoulders above any other Linux-dedicated tablet thus far.

I plan on buying one once I see a product review, and if it’s as good as I hope it will be, I hope that Linux users will support it with their wallets so we get more and better devices like this.
