I'm using Arch kde for a good time now (130gb ssd + 8gb ddr5 ram). I started using Arch on my last pc and was fine with it even though that pc was slower and old but had 12gb ram dd4 ig.
So rn, I can't even open multiple apps on my system while keeping my browser open (I usually have this much tab open - dont ask why lol) and sometime my whole system get stuck while using browser if I mistakenly open a new tab and resources chocks up.
What should I do?

Processors: 12 × 13th Gen Intel® Core™ i7-1355U

Memory: 8 GiB of RAM (7.3 GiB usable)

Graphics Processor: Intel® Graphics

i just installed arch for the first time and this apears i am sure i downloaded grub with pacstrap ;(

I am just done with Plasma KDE, it not running on my pc due to some amd driver issue and i want anyomne to suggest me a good DE and some ricing guide for it cz i want to customize my pc accordingly.

I'm using Arch Linux with Hyprland and everything is working fine.

When I copy text containing quotation marks (""), the paste function removes them. For example: `print("hello")`. Instead of pasting, it uses `print(hello)`. Why is this happening and what's the solution? I'm using Cliphist to save copies.

I am currently running Arch linux (kde plasma) on my thinkpad t480 with an i7-8550U and integrated graphics. I have a problem with hardware acceleration on the all of the browsers I use, but I currently use brave.

Whenever I try to watch videos on youtube or any other video site, I can only watch for a bit before the tab (and sometimes the browser) crashes. The issue persists on both wayland and x11. Disabling vulkan doesn't work. I really don't want to have to forgo hardware acceleration. Anyone have something similar happen or any ideas?

Just finished the movie and, well, made up these pics. They all are scaled for 1366x768 (2732x1536 res), but hopefully will suit your 1080/2K monitors as nicely as mine

Wanted to post this here in case anyone else runs into this issue after a Hyprland crash on Arch with an Nvidia GPU.
The Problem
My Hyprland crashed out of nowhere, and when it came back, everything was massively zoomed in. Checking ⁠hyprctl monitors⁠ showed my screen was detected as ⁠Unknown-1⁠ running at ⁠800x600@60Hz⁠ instead of my normal resolution. After I tried restarting SDDM, I just got hit with a black screen on login, and standard shortcuts weren't working.
Root Cause
The crash caused the GPU driver state to break, making Hyprland lose EDID communication with my monitor. Because I was missing the proper kernel mode setting (KMS) options and driver setup for Nvidia on Wayland, Hyprland couldn't properly hand off the display or recover, resulting in the fallback ⁠Unknown-1⁠ display and eventual black screen on launch.
How I Fixed It
1. Dropped into TTY
When stuck on the black screen/login freeze, I switched to TTY3 using ⁠Ctrl⁠ + ⁠Alt⁠ + ⁠F3⁠ and logged in.
2. Installed the correct Nvidia drivers
Running ⁠sudo pacman -S nvidia⁠ wasn't working (⁠target not found: nvidia⁠), so I installed the modern repo package for my kernel:

# If running the standard linux kernel:
sudo pacman -S nvidia-open

# (Or if on linux-zen/lts):
sudo pacman -S linux-headers nvidia-dkms

1. Enabled DRM Kernel Mode Setting (KMS)
   Wayland requires Nvidia's DRM modesetting to work properly:
   Created/edited ⁠
   /etc/modprobe.d/nvidia.conf⁠

sudo nano /etc/modprobe.d/nvidia.conf

options nvidia_drm modeset=1 fbdev=1

Rebuild initramfs: sudo mkinitcpio -P

And then just simply reboot with: sudo reboot

Hope I could help
