My computer not have capture screen

[umbral shard]

you need to install one, do you want to record or take screenshots?

[undone violet]

check if you run on wayland or plasma, on wayland you have a black screen when capturing anything.

[meager flame]

Yes

[meager flame]

Okay

[umbral shard]

uhhhh what?

you need to choose

[undone violet]

KDE has spectacle build in for screenshot. As third party you can install flameshot. For Recording you can install OBS

[meager flame]

screenshots

[meager flame]

I have plasma (wayland)

[umbral shard]

i recommend using shutter

[meager flame]

I've tried downloading screen captures but it doesn't work, they all close

[meager flame]

already tried shutter

[undone violet]

switch to plasma and try again, you can do that in the login screen

[meager flame]

Could it be an operating system problem?
before I had manjaro and it worked perfectly

[meager flame]

i'm in plasma (wayland)
change it to x11?

[undone violet]

yes

[meager flame]

okay

[meager flame]

And now how do I take screenshots?

[meager flame]

What is the difference of those 2?

[undone violet]

try spectacle flameshot or shutter if they crash again

[undone violet]

diffrent architecture, wayland is new and still in developement, it has a better performance but some issues when you try to capture things etc

[meager flame]

mm

[meager flame]

I am installing the flameshot

@undone violet What do you think is the best desktop environment for arch linux?

[undone violet]

i mean it is personal preference mostly. I personally run kde x11, some others use lxqt xfce or others, you can look up a list and check them out, all have pros and cons

[meager flame]

Is there any difference, disadvantage or advantage to installing arch linux with archinstall?

[undone violet]

the thing with archinstall is, it is faster, but if you never installed arch the manual way, you dont understand much when you run into issues. you dont know how it is build or how it works. archinstall is rather aimed at the people that already know a lot of things. Arch is generally a Distro that gives much freedom, but if you run into issues or brick it you need to fix it yourself, its easier the more knowledge you have

[meager flame]

I installed arch linux with almost no knowledge. Do you think what I did was right?

[undone violet]

I can not say if it was right or wrong as this is a senseless discussion, what i can say is that it wont be easier for you to handle things, as you need to relern stuff at some point

[meager flame]

If you had to choose between debian, fedora and arch linux which one would you choose?

[undone violet]

I personally use arch, because i always want to get the newest packages, and i dont have any problem with fixing something when something breaks. If I want a more stable expirience then it is a hard question tbh, probably endevourOS

[meager flame]

I do not understand that update and that the packages are broken xD can you explain to me please

[undone violet]

If you get the lastest Kernel etc a lot of stuff is untested, so you can run into issues which you need to fix yourself
