Abschied von Manjaro - Zurück zu Arch Linux von Igor Warneck

https://www.mediatao.eu/abschied-von-manjaro-zurueck-zu-arch-linux.html

Anfang des Monats dachte ich mir, gib doch mal wieder eine Chance. Ein Festplatten-Crash hatte mich dazu gezwungen, das System auf meinem Mini von 2016 neu aufzusetzen. Anstatt gleich wieder ein pures Linux zu installieren - diesmal also Manjaro. Schließlich wird…

Arch Linux is a wonderful distribution, but the reality is I lost interest and patience with their community and staff long time ago.

I still recall being trolled because I focused my help toward all the new people. -- Like, really, why wouldn't you want people to help the newbies?!

I got so fed up hearing their philosophy of the so-called "Linux way." They make it sound like it is a cult and not an operating system.

1 of 12 -- Yes, welcome to my rant!

So my #arch #linux just catastrophically self-destructed. I was using arch with the yubikey full-disk encryption package, when the machine hung and crashed during a system update. The machine crashed exactly after the old initramfs files were cleaned up, and before the new ones were written to disk. Since the yubkikey fde thing stores the seed ("challenge") for the luks key in the initramfs, all copies of the seed are gone now, and the data on that disk is unrecoverable.

I must be honest is slowly growing on me. But it will take me at least a year to fully grasp it n feel comfortable with it the way I do with . As a result will not be my daily until then..

I have been using for years and am quite happy with it. I removed all branding related packages to achieve a vanilla GNOME experience. I want to try something new soon. Should I go with 2 or ?

What do you think about Pamac? Would you install it?

So all you , , , , and adjacent peeps: how do you cyber up your life?

Do you have a for daily use?
Any cool gadgets or ?
Souped up terminal prompt beyond oh-my-zsh?
Any other useful desktop apps which help you trough the day?
All the RGB you can fit into your room?
Preaching the gospel of Linux?

I kinda feel pretty un-cyber these days and was wondering…

If I use , which is downstream from , am I still allowed to declare "By the way, I use Arch"?

Which text editor do you prefer?

Do you prefer a terminal text editor or a gui as well? Both have their advantages too.

Now that I got home after 2 years I was using my old computer witht he old OS on it, ArchLinux. I updated it, it was working fine and Arch is a fine platform... But I missed the NixOS setup I had moved to (and still had on my laptop)... Lastnight i moved back over to NixOS and I really couldnt be happier... this is the best linux distro I ever used! I love how every time you upgrade it produces a "clean" system of dependencies like a new install!

Another cool feature is stylix. Its something that is only really easy to do on NixOS. Its a module you load as part of the package configuration and it styles your whole system for you. Sets the same background in all your windows managers, and sets the same color scheme across all your apps, and even the boot loader and console... its pretty sweet!

Does converting to sound like a good idea? I don't now. Appealing perhaps, but smart? Maybe not. 🤔

Hab mir ein gebrauchtes Dell-Notebook von 2017 zugelegt, um damit zu "spielen".

Erst mal Windows zerstört, indem ich installiert habe, basiert auf .
Einfach, weil das Bedienkonzept so ganz anders ist und ich damit lernen will :)

Will aber auch noch weitere Distributionen drauf installieren.

Ziel soll dann sein, dass ich das MacBookPro wieder abstoße (das ich mir zugelegt hatte, weil ich darüber elektronische Musik machen wollte, wozu ich aber dann doch nicht so die Muse hatte - hm, vielleicht mal nochmal angehen, bevor ich es wegtue ...).

Czas ostatnio ucieka mi przez palce jak szalony. Wiecznie lekarze, zachcianki mojej narzeczonej zabierają mi prawie cały wolny czas. Mimo wszystko jestem ekstremalnie podekscytowany.

To tak osobiście małe żale ale też są pozytywy.
W wolnym czasie ko figuruję sobie mojego Thinkpada z Arch oraz dwm.

  1. Pierwszy raz instalowałem Arch z palca, do tego dwm również od podstaw w mojej osobistej konfiguracji. Może ktoś z was używa i ma jakieś ciekawe rady.

  2. Udało mi się wydrukować do mojej szafy rack taki ciekawą obudowę pod moje RaspberryPi. Zmieściły się :

  • 2x RaspberryPi 4
  • RaspberryPi 3B
  • RaspberryPi Zero
  • kieszeń na dysk ssd.

Wyszło super.

Przyjemnego weekendu wszystkim 😃 jak są plany na Sylwestra to udanego i hucznego.

[SomeOrdinaryGamers installs Arch] I Installed The Hardest System Known To Man... (youtu.be)

Hello guys and gals, it's me Mutahar again! This time I deleted and destroyed my system just to rebuild it from the ground up and to teach you how to install what many fedora-tippers call the "hardest system" known as Arch Linux. Check out the install guide here and have a great day! Thanks for watching!

Part of me wants to install EndeavourOS again but I never use for anything other than surfing the net and take screenshots to show off my good looking Linux desktop.

...And as I have stated many times I will always dual boot because my only real hobby is gamimg and the 10% of games I play the most are also the games that don't work on Linux.

Der Umstieg von zu hat auf dem betagten Notebook durchweg besser funktioniert, als auf dem modernen PC. Nur eine Sache will auf dem Notebook nicht laufen: . Weder Videos noch Audios (Podcasts) laufen im Browser, völlig unabhängig welcher. Codecs sind alle vorhanden, denn lokal heruntergeladen gibt es keine Probleme.

Leider habe ich keine Idee, wo ich hier suchen soll. Irgendjemand da draußen?

Unsure which Linux distribution to use? I 100% agree with this article by @Mastodon:

https://www.unsungnovelty.org/posts/01/2024/a-linux-distro-recommendation-framework-and-my-picks-for-2024/

tl;dr: Either Arch Linux or Linux Mint.

I own a 7 and a . Both don't support and therefore will be trash in October 2025 if you ask Microsoft.

Anybody has tried or any other distro on these devices? What hardware is supported and which isn't (I can go w/o the touch screen, but Wifi/Bluetooth/Touchpad/etc should be usable)?

My Acer Aspire One 722 from around 2012 runs current just fine...
