I was an rxvt/urxvt fan for nearly 20 years, then Alacritty for a while. Nowadays, I just use gnome-terminal and I’ve been happy with it. Looking forward to trying Prompt though.
5 days later: Prompt is the bee’s knees! Highly recommend for anyone wanting a snappy, feature-rich GTK4 terminal, especially if you work with containers.
Contour currently, but might consider that new one by the cosmic team. Contour is a bit minimalistic like alacritty or foot, yet it ligatures (a weird dealbreaker of mine). Goes well with zellij (pretty neat stuff, if u ask me, although breaking sixel is unfortunate, but they’re working on it).
Used to use kitty and weztetm, the latter was overall less confusing (generally faster, no need to use quirks for ssh). And then wezterm broke on Wayland :D
I’m really enjoying Fedora (just switched from Ubuntu and previously Debian). More current than Debian, doesn’t have Ubuntu’s canonical baggage, and more stable than Arch (nothing wrong with Arch, it’s just more bleeding edge than I want for anything other than experimenting. YMMV. And Arch documentation is fantastic - I use it to help unravel issues/find solutions on other distros after a bit of translation and sanity checks).
Fedora is well inside the Gnome camp but it’s basically unaltered so you feel freer to tweak and make it your own. (you can obviously run any environment you want).
Not sure if Red Hat’s nonsense will infect Fedora down the road but I can switch it up if I feel like it later. (for a server, I’d just do Debian or possibly Ubuntu.)
Unfortunately, my main machine remains Windows with WSL. Too many things (of what I need) just won’t run on Linux…
Run a full memtest on your RAM. Very likely you may have developed a few bad areas. Take pics if it finds bad zones, you can use the addresses to tell the kernel to avoid them.
You could give this a try instead. It’s a reverse engineered iCue driver which probably supports your keyboard and any other Corsair peripherals you may have.
Well, that’s unfortunate. I have all razer peripherals that work great with openrazer for a back end and polychromatic for a gui front end. I don’t have any corsair devices anymore so I can be much help. Good luck.
It’s more important to make the swap in the first place than it is to pick the right distro, unless you dive straight into LFS or Gentoo or something. You’ll eventually find what you want and can swap easily enough, or you’ll find that you’re happy with what you have!
