#Voidlinux introduces itself as 'based on the Linux Monolithic Kernel', as if people know what kernels are, and understand monolithic vs micro, but just needed an introduction to Linux in particular.

Ich kann mich (noch) nicht entscheiden, womit ich ein Notebook für mich neu aufsetzen möchte.

Auf der Shortlist stehen
- GhostBSD
- Linux Mint
- Void Linux
- Windows 11

Ich hätte am liebsten ein System ohne systemd, mit aktuellen Paketen, einigermassen schnell und einfach aufgesetzt, mit Festplattenverschlüsselung und mit einem stabilen Update Prozess.

Was würdest Du nehmen?

@inlovewithpda I use it as my daily driver at the moment. Its great if you love FOSS, it won’t have every possible program available in the main package repos though. I.e. if you want to use an application based on chromium or electron you’ll have to use a flatpack or build from source.

It uses runit as an init system though which is disgustingly fast. Its super lightweight, its very stable as rolling releases go, and xbps is a super quick package manager.

I think it's about time I ditched Arch Linux for Gentoo. Arch has gotten easier and I've gotten bored with it. Once I've settled to Gentoo, I'd have Void Linux scratch my "Arch Linux" itch

I mean, I've already explored Linux distros with different inits. I don't think anything can stop me when I have Arch, Gentoo, and Artix wiki handy

www.gentoo.orgWelcome – Gentoo LinuxThe website of Gentoo, a flexible Linux distribution.

On my wife's laptop, when it was on Ubuntu 22.04 on XFCE if the laptop lid was closed to put the laptop to sleep sometimes it wouldn't resume correctly and the mouse would not register clicks and the keyboard wouldn't type unless you did Control-Alt-F1 then back to X with Control-Alt-F8.

After some more digging I discovered both TLP and ACPI were trying to suspend the laptop when you closed the lid so I disabled the suspend in TLP. Then I think I found either ConsoleKit or Upower was trying the same thing.

Anyway, her laptop had to get a minor repair (power pin became loose from the board) when it came back I reformatted it, put Void Linux on it with Mate and only the services needed and it never, ever had that suspend/resume buggy input device problem again.
