Fair enough. I used to use Manjaro and it broke, cannot remember why. I moved to ubuntu sometime later and I’ve never left. Some would say that makes me a bad linux user, I would say I use an operating system that gets out of my way and let’s me use it. Use whatever tool gets the job done fastest!
Personally, no, i havent used manjaro in years. However, it’s frequently spoken about problem in the community so im sure someone else can help you. Or you could look up people talking about it.
Not the above poster but Manjaro routinely pushes out broken packages, has had a number of issues with security (not renewing their tls certificates for their website) and is all around not stable. Arch is a predictable unstable, manjaro is an unpredictable unstable attempt at stable.
I mean how the community refers to him. I’ve never read a thread where someone called Linus a BDFL, I have with python. If they do, they do. Just haven’t seen it myself.
So I did miss that Linus is in the article, but the reference to him says he was awarded the title, which makes it sound like an honour rather than a hierarchical system. I don’t believe that he’s ever been anything other than the projects owner/founder but I’m happy to learn if I’m wrong.
Youre thinking of python I reckon -link to wikipedia
I work in cyber security. Loads of businesses will do all the cybersecurity stuff using a combination of tools on Azure and security OS’s like Kali and Parrot.

Are you using a package manager or downloading everything from virtualboxs website? When I installed virtual box earlier today it all worked fine so that’s why I ask.
I uninstalled my filesystem. I think I was cutting down on packages and used the purge command at the wrong time. Ended up uninstalling nemo with the purge command and removed all packages associated, including the filesystem. Then I was all surprised pikachu when everything stopped working and upon reboot nothing happened
Well maybe once I get a job in tech (I graduate at the end of november) I could justify spending the time… it will give me a better understanding of computers after all.
I’d love to do this someday but I really don’t have the time to experiment at the moment. I need something that allows me to be lazy so I can just work on things.
Pop sounds very handy with nvidia pcs
I tried Nobara once and it doesn’t play nicely with my computers secure boot. It didn’t recognise it as a valid boot disk. I never got further than that since every other distro allowed me to boot. OpenSUSE would be a good one to try, I appreciate it’s a stable rolling release! It almost sounds perfect!
Fedora is a good option but I think I’ll try to stay as close to Ubuntu/debian as I can since that’s more familiar. Thanks!
I’ll definitely give Mint a go! I’ll give pop os a try as well since they have their new DE coming soon.
Edit: spelling
X11 doesn’t limit it, but you will want to enable “Force composition pipeline” to prevent screen tearing. nvidia and Wayland work together btw. It’s not a match made in heaven but they do work.
Best advice I ever got regarding Windows: delay updates for a few days. Sometimes Windows updates break the device, but if you’re part of the crowd that delays for a day or two, they might have fixed the issue by then.
In the update settings she can reset her apt sources back to “default”. It’s not too hard and there’s a gui throughout the process (from memory).
The package conflicts is an interesting one, if you have the time to post one of these on lemmy I’m sure someone will suggest a fix. It’s probably a
apt install --fix-broken
or something simple (hopefully) but I’m sure we could work it out.Totally agree that these are annoying issues though. See if you can use Nala, it’s a TUI front end for Apt and it’s got some nice user changes like if you run upgrade it updates and upgrades. It also has a fetch feature which finds nearby sources, so you’re always downloading from the closest/fastest source.
