Trying to install Arch for the first time whilst also tired, I now have a computer with no network connection that I can't download a package to fix because...no network. (I know I can drop back into the live USB and fix it, I'm just marvelling at my ability to cut the branch I'm standing on).

For what it's worth, I'm only trying Arch out of desperation after experiencing the "Linux has no sound lol!" meme in reality for the first time ever under Debian. I have never touched it before and expect my chances of success are minimal.

this is a joke suggestion but if you have a usb wireless or wired ethernet then that might be a good crutch for now. Also, you can install ubuntu, which just works.

Look if I can't spend hours hand-crafting my own hostname file and agonising over which network manager to forget to install, what is even the point of doing a Linux? If I wanted poo poo to just work I'd use the best Linux: Windows (Realtalk I tried Ubuntu first and was rewarded with no video trying to use the amdgpu driver. Debian gave me video but no sound over HDMI, which is workable in a pinch but not ideal so I figured I'd go for broke with Arch before I give up).

if nothing else you've had the wholly authentic linux experience top to bottom so far. i hope you found some varying and possibly contradictory suggestions for manual edits to config files that did not solve the issue either because the things they referenced don't exist on your system or because a minor version difference in some component means they no longer work as described

also recommend use a tool like yay or similar for installing AUR packages like awscli-v2 or steam or slack-desktop. annoyingly yay itself has to be installed using go tools, i wish it was just a regular package. maybe there's a different one that's available as a regular package e: actually it looks like you can just grab a prebuilt binary from the releases page Progressive JPEG fucked around with this message at 23:02 on Oct 19, 2021 |

Progressive JPEG posted:AUR packages like awscli-v2 whats the deal with Amazon themselves not packaging awscli? I get not providing Arch packages (no disrespect but it's a bit niche) but they don't even provide debs or RPMs, just a tarball you can unzip into /. packaging is hard and stuff but smaller orgs than AWS manage to either get packages into the big distros or operate their own yum/deb repositories that you can configure. why does Amazon refuse? that question isn't necessarily for Mr. JPEG specifically but your post made me think about it

could be some combination of the following: - to be fair, arch linux users probably aren't famous for wanting to get real work done with their machines - is awscli still python-based? if so its probably enough of a headache just getting it packaged for the more mainstream stuff like ubuntu/fedora - probably not a lot of upward career mobility in getting a cli tool to work on B tier/C tier linux distros

Progressive JPEG posted:- pipewire with pulseaudio adapter for sound - its now a drop-in replacement to the point that all the regular pulseaudio tools like pavucontrol work the same with it pipewire is great, and the only real bugs now are from userland software doing terrible things that it shouldn't be doing, ala https://twitter.com/flibitijibibo/status/1447705283556487168?s=20

https://rockylinux.org/sponsors/ AWS, Microsoft, Google and Azure are all sponsors, so it'll be likely that more images and stuff will be tested on that platform. Anyways, I'll probably pick it up at some point for testing, before I start moving services from CentOS 8 to rocky linux. The kicker is that I likely have some stuff on Stream, so that could (in the worst case) necessitate a reinstall rather than just running a script.

I installed pipewire on the recommendation of this thread and it is really great both architecturally and in allowing me to loving BLAST lovely music at my friends over discord while also talking to them. It really does work seamlessly as a drop-in replacement for pulseaudio.

sb hermit posted:https://rockylinux.org/sponsors/ yeah the list of sponsors seems to bode well for the project, and we're still mostly rhel 7 so we have room to find the right rhel 8 derivative for us. this one definitely seems like the most promising. we'll launch some dev envs with it and see how it goes.
