If I had to guess the problem is that the file is macchanger.sh

sudo sh -c "curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/shilch/macchanger/master/macchanger.sh > /usr/local/bin/macchanger.sh && chmod +x /usr/local/bin/macchanger.sh"

sh -c "/usr/local/bin/macchanger.sh"

just a guess though, also, wrong community

https://github.com/OpenTabletDriver/OpenTabletDriver pretty sure this tool is what you're looking for!

What do you need xsetwacom for that isn't working with the native settings manager?

I'm not lying and why would I? Your only remaining argument is that I must be lying?

see the countless results for yourself.

Again this is a distro that shipped an update to steam that uninstalled your DE, why are you surprised it's a buggy mess?

Fedora is all about being different nowadays, they’re pushing all kinds of bleeding edge stuff and it’s become an extremely opinionated distro. Which is fine if you vibe with what they’re doing but makes it more complicated than “just use Fedora”.

It is as simple as "just use fedora, or mint, or debian, or endeavoros, or arch" because guaranteed one of those will be better for your usecase than manjaro.

I’m only going to say it one more time, Manjaro isn’t Arch and doesn’t have the same goals. If you want Arch, use Arch. It’s not a zero-sum game, Arch doesn’t lose anything by Manjaro existing, on the contrary, we all benefit from more distro diversity.

Actually, we do, manjaro is worse than one of those distros for every usecase, meaning manjaro just makes the ecosystem worse by existing, rather than better.

I understand manjaro isn't arch, but even if you don't want arch, there's something better in ONE of those distros for you, every time. Manjaro isn't the best at anything and it is the worst at a lot of things.

True, but it's still much more stable in the classical sense of unbreaking.

You don’t have to switch anything. You get a LTS kernel when you install and can sit on it for many years. If you hit EOL on a LTS kernel it will switch it out for you. Manjaro currently ships a wide variety of LTS kernels that are under active support: 4.19, 5.4, 5.10, 5.15, 6.1 and 6.6.

That works great unless you have nvidia, in which case it will break terribly many times and you all of a sudden won't be able to install packages because you need to update desperately but nvidia conflicts with that version of the lts kernel

things like this happen all the time on manjaro, and have for years.

I found out that it worked this way, because it broke. Repeatedly. Across multiple machines, multiple times.

But I don’t want to use Fedora. Manjaro is a much better experience out of the box, and it’s a much less opinionated distro.

Then use mint or endeavoros, suggesting people use manjaro is suggesting a fundamentally broken experience. This is a distro that made steam uninstall your desktop environment. Their incompetence is genuinely incredible. How could you not notice that problem with your two week delay that clearly adds nothing?

If you want arch but with a two week delay that manages to make things less stable at worst, and accomplishes nothing at best, use manjaro, but if you want a system that never breaks, don't use manjaro, or arch, really.

What I don't understand about manjaro fundamentally is why on earth you would want a distro that does break, but isn't bleeding edge/minimal, the problem is that manjaro is supposed to be the "easy to use" edition of arch, but i've spent far more time doing maintenance on manjaro systems than arch systems, so what's the benefit? The GUI? If you're reliant on a GUI, I doubt you want a system that ever breaks, use debian, if that's too out of date for you, fedora, or mint, there's just not a set of desires that corresponds with manjaro being the best choice for you. If you don't want to switch because you're used to it, that's fine, it honestly doesn't matter, but we shouldn't be telling people to use it, or advertising it.

Negative feedback is important. The notion that people should only give positive feedback is harmful, and should be reconsidered.

It's an ambitious goal without reason, just use fedora if you want a stable distro, why would you hack arch into something it simply isn't?

You realize their strategy for making it "stable" is just waiting two weeks and hoping it works? That isn't anything like what any good stable distro does.

The fact is, everything you're saying that you want the system to do, manjaro isn't even good at. And all the benefits you'd get from arch, manjaro ruins.

Either use endeavoros and enjoy the benefits of arch, or use fedora and enjoy a stable distro. Manjaro is neither and bad at both.

It’s not Arch. It doesn’t do things the way Arch does. It caters to people who don’t ever want to think about what kernel version they run.

That is exactly why it should do what I said, on arch I never have to think about this, on manjaro, you have to manually switch it out for no real reason.

Here’s what I consider simple. I install the distro. That’s it, I’m done. I don’t have to tinker with the kernel, or with drivers, or with anything. It just works.

Then endeavoros is simple and manjaro is absolutely not. Manjaro fails to "just work" literally constantly. Remember when linus tried to use it and a steam update uninstalled his DE? shit like this constantly happens manjaro side. It's a comedy of errors.

And yes I realize that’s complete nonsense to an Arch user, to whom tinkering with this stuff is the whole point. Which is why I keep saying, Manjaro is not Arch, stop bashing your head against the wall, you’ll only hurt yourself and hate the experience.

If you don't want to tinker at all, use fedora, it's exactly designed for your exact usecase. The problem isn't that manjaro doesn't do the things you're saying, it's that for everything you want, there is a significantly better choice than manjaro.

I did stop using it??

I have literally years of experience with the distro.

I have installed it for many people, and completely regretted it every time.
