I’m using it as my main OS, i have no windows or other OS on my computer,
I’m using zen kernel cuz its default kernel
idk if it was my fault or either my hardware (laptop) is bad match for arch after all, my friend using garuda GNOME and nothing such like this happened
I 'm literally crying cuz of these bug.
- Wifi not working
wifi could not be figured
i have to restart mylaptop like 5-8 times. and waiting for my luck come to me and then the wifi would magically work

- I can’t even play video on youtube
As same as audio,camera,video errorrs, i never experienced this before, My wifi was working, i can googling and did intenet stuff, but why i can’t play video even on youtube, and idk why this happened on me, i’ve experinced this for 2 days
i started to think maybe my laptop just bad match for arch,
How to troubleshoot or just fix these problem? i did sudo pacman -Syu to keep my OS updated but the update can’t fix this issues
Can i got some help or i just really give up on arch based distro?
