      That's strange, I've never had an issue with Asus hardware. What distro were you running?

          late reply, but linux really has come a long way in 4 years! and all the hardware issues for your laptop are probably solved since hardware drivers are integrated into linux as time goes on.

          btw, i started using linux 6 months ago and it's working really well, i don't think i could've handled it 4 years ago since i'm not into coding and stuff & it seems like things were more difficult then

          you could try various beginner distros in 'try linux'/live boot mode to make sure it works with your hardware too, before installing anything. i recommend pop os or kubuntu

              that's totally fair! what two programs, by the way? it's alright if you can't say, but i could look and see if they work

                  Looks like Fl studio works with the windows compatibility tool WINE - https://jstaf.github.io/2018/02/22/flstudio-on-linux.html

                  For wondershare filmora, it either works over WINE as well, or it works with WINE developers' paid program CrossOver - https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=2LhR_0gQjhk

                  If you're ever down to find alternatives for either, you can use alternativeto.net and search by Linux. For example, https://alternativeto.net/software/wondershare-video-editor/?platform=linux

                  (For video editing, I think DaVinci Resolve with an nvidia graphics card on Linux is the most solid option, but Kdenlive is also pretty decent and more accessible. For audio editing, the most accessible option is Audacity. Totally understandable if you wouldn't want to switch your workflow though!)
