It’s half baked: like the post says, it’s the first testing version. It will be developed more, like a member of the team said:
Our plan is definitely for it to become an official variant of Manjaro. With the community testing version we’re now gathering some feedback on what people expect from such a variant and what should still go in there or what could be slimmed down.
It’s clearly not ready.
Oh that’s a fun idea! I may try it.
Oh seriously?
mutt, because it looks like it’s from the last 20 years. Of the 20th century.
Thanks.
I always thought that mini computer.were more power hungry than SBC. Am I wrong?
For example : I write in French. It wasn’t easy for me to have a way to type É or Ç. Tmux wasn’t easy to configure. It took time to understand how to use USB drives. And now I didn’t use it for some time, and I’d have everything to learn again if I had to turn it on.
I’m no computer scientist. All these things may be trivial for someone who works with computers, but it’s not my case 😅.
I’ve done that on my potato, I installed Debian without a DE. It’s great, but I needed an insane amout of time to make it actually usable.
Things open instantly when I click, it can’t get snappier. And I use GNOME, which isn’t the lighter solution.
If you don’t play game,I see no reason to need more than 8GB of RAM. My computer is running very quickly with 8GB, even if I am photo editing on one screen while watching videos on the second, with a few softwares and even a VM opened in the background.
But I don’t use Windows.
They made errors with certificates twice. Apparently, that a cardinal sin for some Linux users.
But if you like Manjaro, use it. It’s not perfect, but it’s a great distro.
Once, I listened what some people said on the Internet, and I tried Arch. I came back to Manjaro, but I learned a lot so I’m not unhappy with the experience.
However, to say that there’s no reason to use it over Arch (I don’t know about Endeavour, I never actually used it) is just wrong. Maybe you don’t like the differences, but they are important and useful for someone like me. When I installed Arch, I needed to tinker it for hours before having something usable. I don’t want to tinker, I want my OS to work, even if it means other people made choices for me, as long as I can revert them; that’s what Manjaro offers. For example, I love GNOME, but only with some plugins, like dash to dock. When I installed Arch, GNOME made an update which broke a lot of plugins, included dash to dock; while Manjaro waited for dash to dock to work to push the new GNOME. Some issues may be pushed, but a lot of others aren’t. I prefer to have one big update twice a month instead of having to update and tinker again my OS possibly every day.
Manjaro is far from perfect, no distro is, but for people like me, it works very well, and better than Arch.
I don’t get the hate for Manjaro, TBH. I never had any problem with it, and I used it as my main OS for a few years now.
Android is exactly why I think it’s important not to ditch GNU in GNU/Linux. I don’t care about codelines, I care about the philosophy.
Other people will probably give you better answers, but I think the solution is quite easy: chroot and relauch the update.
And yet… it’s a tutorial about how to download with Usenet.
It’s quite easy, but you’ll need an account and a client.
Ask me if you have a question!
It’s not that easy, because the vast majority of articles are for using Usenet to download binaries. It’s not what the article was talking about.
I don’t know for the AUR, but the regular repos seem to be already accessible. You can try them with pacman, but the installed packages will be deleted at the moment of the update, or you can create a custom image and add the wanted packages which will be reinstalled at every update.
