Kernel Not Detecting Wifi
#4
I use one of these cheapy "802.11N" dongles that only sticks out the side of the PBP about 3/8". I don't even notice that it's there. But that could be because I spent 2 years with a very large obnoxious one. I use it because NetBSD 9.3 does not work with the internal Wi-Fi (of course NetBSD 10RC1 might; I haven't tried it).

I have the same opinion of Manjaru; but I haven't used it much. I keep it on my wife's PBP, mostly because usually I don't have to deal with it (except when it breaks when I update it).

I did have the original PBP "Debian desktop" for a while which seemed to do everything Manjaru does, but it felt lighter. I'd say you might want to try that, but I'm not sure if that version of Debian is still relevant on the PBP. I'd still be using it if NetBSD didn't do everything I needed it to do.
