If I use ac adaptor with debian/ubuntu distros, black screen of death appears less.

Do you tried differents manjaro versions, kde, i3, lxqt?

I used manjaro kde install and changed for xfce.

With manjaro I don't have black screen of death but many times I can't boot system, fails on uboot. And I need to restart system manually.

Perhaps is a uboot problem. Or in worst way a hardware problem...


I've tried only i3 version of manjaro on sdcard, armbian on sdcard and default ubuntu 16.04 on eMMC


can you tell me which one works best for you

Any mainline kernel 5.0 image ?

Can you point me one to use with which you may be more confident for debugging.

Also: should I boot the sdcard image with AC plugged or not? What is  best practice  in this case?

Try Monjaro or Anarsoul ArchLinux, both runs mainline Linux kernel.
