From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Qubes OS counts as an unusual setup, right? Maybe even more unusual, I used to use Proxmox on my desktop PC, and I ran Debian and Arch on top of that. Also a little unusual, I use a MacBook Pro with Asahi Linux (actually the Fedora Asahi Remix).
I'm thinking about running Proxmox on my current laptop but the battery life would be terrible
I really wouldn't recommend it on a laptop if you want to use it as a portable, battery-powered device.
It would be fine if I could passthough power information. It would take a little doing but I could pass though the GPU and USB controller to a VM along with Power information so that it would work like a normal install.
I would need to use Debian as the base hypervisor so that I could use Disk encryption. Also Proxmox frankly is a bit overkill.
