Partition schemes that reduce TEAR on SSDs [Solved]

[pannet1]

It is told that the legacy partitioning schemes were designed around disc storage and we have not yet adjusted to SSDs. I am worried about the TEAR

I would even go further and request you to create MX installers geared towards this. To begin with can you provide howto for people who have already installed the OS.

All the FS tools used in MX-Linux have done the proper alignment for SSD drives for some years now.
MX-Linux already installs a weekly cron job to run fstrim. It logs in /var/log/trim.log

That's really all you need for almost all use cases. If you have a particular issue of concern, please give use the details.

I'll be damned. I didn't know that. You guys think of everything.

The dev team added the fstrim cronjob back in MX-15. I didn't have an SSD then so I don't think I participated in the thread but I do remember it.

Note also that swappiness on MX Linux is set to 15, rather than the normal Linux amount of 60. This helps a bit by potentially reducing writes.

Bravo, no wonder MX Linux is number one distro.
