I am just curious, are you doing some kernel update from time to time? If so, how?
I am using the default distro (Debian GNU/Linux 9) but it doesn't seem to be very well supported. I can't update Chromium to the latest version; printing is flaky; etc. I regularly do a sudo apt-get update/upgrade but not much seems to change.
I'd like to try Manjaro or Ubuntu but I'm not clear on how to install them. I've downloaded Manjaro and used Etcher to put it on a card but it won't boot. I did get some earlier version of Manjaro to boot but it didn't support dual monitors and some other stuff and I wasn't able to install it on the internal memory.
Looking for some clear instructions on how to install other distros.
I'm using the default distro, too. It works mostly fine, but I think there are better options for the PBP out there. Having some sort of "definitive install guide" for e.g. Manjaro would be awesome, especially now since the PBP will be shipped with Manjaro by default (right?).
I recognise that there are some install guides out there, but they do not cover the PBP pertaining differences, e.g. the CPU speed governor would be one such missing detail.
