@scottalanmiller Wow, that must've been a 'fun' troubleshooting session.

@tim_g said in Anyone Running Arch Linux:

I tried it on my ASUS ROG, but the fans were constantly running at 100%. Other than that, Arch worked the best on it.

It's very up to date, in general.

Majaro uses ext4 by default and handles software with the Pacman utility.

For home laptop use (non-gaming) be sure to check out PC-BSD. It's screaming fast, super stable and very responsive.

In this particular article it was a solid, but not fastest, performer in the transcoding benchmarks they ran, which were about as close to web serfing and video watching. PC-BSD is the fastest bar none if you're compiling software or iops intensive workloads.
