I'm confused about this and need help.

I looked online and even visited YouTube.

Please do not post pictures of terminal outputs. This is our forum's policy, (unless there is absolutely no other method to post this info). Press the pencil icon below your Original Post (OP), and remove the picture and replace it with the proper textual output.

Have you considered the use of luks as the root of your issue:

Please… just copy paste.
Pictures of terminal make no sense unless there’s some UI glitch to show, or it’s impossible to post otherwise.

the discard operation is not supported

I guess… the discard operation is not supported.

From fstrim.service:

/usr/bin/fstrim --listed-in /etc/fstab:/proc/self/mountinfo --verbose --quiet-unsupported

From man fstrim:

       --quiet-unsupported
           Suppress error messages if trim operation (ioctl) is unsupported. This option is meant to be used in systemd service file or in cron(8) scripts to hide warnings that are result
           of known problems, such as NTFS driver reporting Bad file descriptor when device is mounted read-only, or lack of file system support for ioctl FITRIM call. This option also
           cleans exit status when unsupported filesystem specified on fstrim command line.

The timer is correctly enabled, but see here: Discard/TRIM_support_for_solid_state_drives_(SSD)

edit: LOL, I didn’t see the above post.

I do understand what transpired, yes.

I wanted to experiment with encryption mode this time.
sorry

No problem. After all, we run Linux also because we like to experiment.
And I like to look into these issues because I learn something in the process.

Although I greatly appreciate your nice sentiments, I really need your assistance in installing AMD drivers. Here is a picture, although I'm not sure.\

I took it out. I just read your message, and I’m really sorry because this is a brand-new animal.

I hope I'm not mistaken, it looks like it's already installed.
