Hey guys, I have a macbook pro 2019 (intel architecture) that my company gave me for work (I do software development). They allow me to work on linux if I want to, and recent developments at the company have made me more inclined.
I spent a lot of time on Arch Linux on my personal computer a while back, and I love the customizability of the system, the user repo, and the package manager, but I definitely had some issues with stability from time to time.
Essentially I want something customizable, specifically where I have the freedom to mess with things like my window manager and compositor if I want to. I used to use i3 and I don’t know if that’s the move any more with recent developments in wayland.
So to end my meandering:
- I’m hoping for some recommendations on distros
- Some information about HiDPI displays and utilizing multiple displays with different DPIs
- Some recommendations on WMs, especially tiling ones
You ever get the webcam working? I’ve tried the patjak stuff and can get the device detected but alas no /dev/video
Yes, I’ll try to visit the thread tomorrow, and write some stuff up. Not today, though.
