These machines & their systems all serve a particular need of mine.
After preparing for this video, I realize that I run LMDE w/Xfce DE on 3 different machines. This means that I use it more than I do Arch Linux. Ha!

I really hated losing my Suse install. I do keep fair back ups so I didn't lose much data. Maybe a web page or two but not any real data.
Now I have wondered, did it have to do with this new xz hack? Probably not. I feel half certain that it may have had something to do with the packman repo. I know it wasn't grub or an Xorg-Wayland conflict.
It was painful to 'give' up & move on.

One of the two sff Dell PC's (7010 & 790)will be servicing my bedroom which will leave, does leave, one for experimentation with another Linux distro that looks worthy of long term use.
Thanks for watching!!!
Archin' On!!!
PS: I am hoping to be able to find time & attempt installing Arch Linux on this Lenovo Legion with Nvidia RTX 4070 this coming week-end. Hope so. Looking forward to it.
