I bought my laptop at the beginning of May and I'm still not connected to the Internet. I downloaded SolydK but found that dysfunctional. Distrowatch says Debian has "Wine" and is popular but I can't find "Wine" in https://packages.debian.org/stable/
I'm currently downloading Debian and it is showing 557 MB. It has 37000 packages. I'm beginning to wonder if I'm downloading the minimal installation without "Wine". I want an OS which has "Wine" installed by default. When I downloaded Ubuntu it has 1.4 GB, and does not have "Wine" installed by default.
I would say your best option for advice regarding Debian would be
their forum.
I don't mean to make you go elsewhere for support, but it is the proper place for it.
