Hi All,

Over the previous 20 years I’ve used at home mostly Mandriva, then kUbuntu and just installed a Manjaro. So I am not “new to Linux” but still new to Manjaro/arch. Has anyone a good “primer” for people migrating ?

A few questions I have

  • How does pacman work compared to apt-get ? and how to find in which package an command lies. I struggled a bit to get lsinput (to configure a rudder pedal for flight sim)

  • I am struggling a bit with Zsh, like I ended up starting bash to configure an environment variable, any ressources on-it. Or shall I simply change my setting (and how) to use bash that I know a bit. It’s a home/Gaming PC so I don’t plan to use the console that much but as anyone who has been using linux based OS for a while, I find-it more conveinient

    At that point why not go immutable distros? Like atomic Fedoras, or Bazzite for if you’re a gamer.

      +1 for Fedora Atomic. uBlue is pretty much vanilla Silverblue/ any other spin, but with some QoL stuff included.

      You can’t get a more reliable base on a relatively stable (in terms of update frequency), yet modern platform.
