For games you can use Lutris and/or heroic with WINE and Proton.

RGB stuff you can use OpenRGB.

The Anker webcam doesn’t work with your Linux install? What model?

I hear Gimp is getting a big update here in the near future. Not sure your use case. I don’t do much photo editing anymore.

Virt-Manager is straight forward, and is a GUI that can work with QEMU.

Hope this helps :)

If I may ask, what specific hardware?

For my use case with proprietary hardware I use USB Passthrough with QEMU (Virt-Manager)

To get Nvidia working on Arch here is what I did:

During installation of Arch when it asked if I wanted to chroot into my distro I did. However if you enter commandline by hitting CTR+ALT+<F1 or F2 or F3> to change to a virtual console. If you are doing this from a chroot environment you don’t need sudo.


edit the mkinitcpio.conf

sudo nano /etc/mkinitcpio.conf

In the MODULES=() section I added “nvidia nvidia_modeset nvidia_uvm nvidia_drm” without quotes. So it looked like this:

MODULES=(nvidia nvidia_modeset nvidia_uvm nvidia_drm)

Afterwards I updated my initramfs images by running:

sudo mkinitcpio -P

Then I edited my grub config:

sudo nano /etc/default/grub

Find the line that says “GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT=”“”

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="nvidia-drm.modeset=1" 

Then I updated grub

sudo grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg

Note: I use the Nvidia Proprietary drivers

I do not recommend Manjaro especially if you are going to be using the AUR (Arch User Repository) as it can cause things to break.

Saying you don’t care about privacy because you have nothing to hide is like saying you don’t care about freedom of speech because you don’t have anything to say.

This just reinforces why I chose lemm.ee to be my chosen instance. I think what you had to say here was well worded, as well as I feel it aligns with how I would want to handle it should I be in charge. Thank you for creating this instance, and thank you for the explanation of your stance. You nailed it, a lot can be handled with proper communication. And going nuclear and completely defederating I would agree should be a last resort.
