Arch Linux wiki

Arch Linux is a popular rolling release distribution.

The Arch Linux wiki covers Linux broadly, and has a particularly robust knowledge base for specific applications and Linux topics.

Examples include:

• GRUB
• Kernel parameters
• Btrfs
• NVIDIA
• Category:Applications
  • Category:Terminal emulators

Sound

Linux has seen all kinds of audio software throughout the ages, and its reliability is the subject of oft-repeated jokes. From ALSA to Pulseaudio, and now Pipewire.

For pipewire, see:

• openSUSE:Pipewire
• ArchWiki:PipeWire
