You're about to switch from Mint to Manjaro KDE. Make sure you're aware of any major driver problems or bugs that could affect your setup.

The main problem I've faced has been with wireless drivers. Are you connected via Ethernet or using Wi-Fi? What about Bluetooth? Do you require any specific software for Manjaro? All this along with other driver issues can impact driver stability or availability.

I’m connected via a wired link, but I rely on Bluetooth occasionally for a controller. The software side looks good—mostly dual-booting Windows 10 for VR and some Adobe tools for school.

I update every six months. I didn’t have to deal with drivers. My main concern is making sure all my preferred programs are installed and working.

I’ve created a script that sets up Docker, VS Code, and similar tools so you can jump back in smoothly. A handy list of commands is saved for future reference.

I create a single script for each distribution. It becomes repetitive quickly.

I rely mainly on Debian, so I have just one script.

I configured MX and Manjaro inside separate subfolders; as long as each has its own /home directory, everything works fine. Just one should handle /boot, nothing else required.
