I am having a strange issue on Arch Linux for a while. Audio is not working and videos do not want to play unless I execute "systemctl --user restart pipewire wireplumber".

Does anyone know what could be the reason before I get lost in the depths of the Arch Linux forum?

Thanks!

PC Neuinstallation. Wie befürchtet schon am ersten Schritt hängen bleiben: keine #WLAN Verbindung. Nichts hilft. Erstmal Spaziergang machen. Danach wird mir die lange Nase gezeigt, weil es jetzt klappt, wie es soll. #archinstall konfiguriert, bricht die Installation unmittelbar nach dem Start ab. Irgendwelche #python Fehler. Motivation im Keller, Frustpegel am Abheben. Früher hatte ich noch Spass daran, diese Zeiten sind vorbei. Jetzt will ich einfach nur ein funktionierendes System, das nicht ständig meine Aufmerksamkeit erfordert.

Überlege genervt, wieder zu einer #Debian Distribution zu wechseln. #Arch #Archlinux

#FreeBSD #Linux #ArchLinux

I remember when I started messing around with Linux, it all seemed so hard and Arch Linux was the big bad bogeyman.

Now, years later, I use Arch Linux as my daily driver, and I am starting to learn FreeBSD. Curiously, I don't find FreeBSD to be as intimidating as Arch Linux seemed to be wayback then. However, it is a beast I want to tame. I am getting my ass kicked at every twist and turn. 🤣

I'm considering using a password manager. I run a minimal archlinux-based system. I don't care about synchronizing with any other machines, just about making an encrypted backup of the password bank in a file I can put in an exterman HD and not worry about. Any suggestions?

Even more importantly, what to look for and what to avoid when evaluating alternatives? (My scepticism against software is what kept me away from this type of program for the last decade and a half...)

My laptop can boot either #Manjaro Linux or #EndeavourOS, both #ArchLinux derivatives and both patched reasonably recently (within the last week). Manjaro has a 6.12.19-1-MANJARO kernel with the Plasma desktop, and EndeavourOS has a 6.13.7-arch1-1 kernel with the Cinnamon desktop. Both have the power profile set to Balanced.

Steam + the new NVMe 2TB is functional, mounted a new file system XFS under $HOME/games and added to steam as storage to use and download stuffs and use it as main. So far so good, only downloading stuff not playing, altho I did a test on my Steam Deck where most if not all my games I use to play were functional under SteamOS (Arch Linux base)

Nothing of this is rocker science, but is for to share, if someone wonder how hard is gaming on Linux
