I tried Manjaro the other day and had to try 3 kernel versions before I found one that woke from sleep without crashing, the display wouldn't hold its resolution through display sleep, bluetooth wouldn't connect without writing a custom config file, and CUPS auto-detected the wrong drivers.
I went back to Ubuntu and it all Just Worked.
My conclusion: yeah, the Debian stale package problem sucks, but it doesn't suck as badly as the rolling release instability problem.
- d3nj4l 5y agoI had several issues with waking from sleep on Ubuntu based distros as well, and had to wait ages for updates that would fix it. It’s not all green on the other side!
- jjoonathan 5y agoMe too, but that was 15 years ago. Manjaro was a trip back to the Bad Old Days. I'm sure we're deep in YMMV territory, but I gave Manjaro a spin based on the recent hype wave so whenever I see an echo of that wave I feel obliged to share my experience. Shrug.
