I would suggest using something easier like Linux Mint next time you give Linux a try.

nope. if your not installing arch for your first distro then linux is too good for you

My now-husband thought a good first date was to compile gentoo on my computer with KDE 4.0 (so raw that folders/desktop/drag and drop didn't work). 13 years later, I finally decided to use Arch on one of my computers... the other two are still Ubuntu, though that's likely to change.

I still can't quite figure out why I kept dating him and eventually married him. Maybe it's the free tech support?
