arch? stable?
27/03/2026
i know i know, it may sound a bit weird for those 2 to be combined in one sentence
but it is actually doable in a few easy steps like
- disabling secure boot - this is the number 1 cause for broken drivers after an update
- regularly updating - this may sound counterintuitive but it prevents dependency mayhem from developing
- double check what you are downloading from the aur - the aur is user hosted, it may break your whole system so just double check what you download and use an aur helper
- backup config files - no matter what you are editing, you should always create a backup before editing
and thats all, its not that hard to keep an arch system stable. it all boils down to doing regular system maintenance
