Follow-up from “Dumbest Thing you have done distro-hopping?”.
Here’s mine - the laptop from which I’m typing right now has a broken touchpad that keeps jumping and clicking randomly, and does not work. Well, I can’t afford to fix it, but at the moment, I was so pissed off I punched the touchpad really hard, and the machine panicked with all the lights blinking. A few more revival abuses, and the machine was back to life, but since I was running a nixos-rebuild switch --upgrade in the background, I blew off my boot partition. I think I just broke the unbreakable distro.
This brings back some nightmares. Once I get them working I never upgrade or even look at them.
I gave up and installed PopOS
One or two recent updates to the
470xxnvidia drivers on Arch partially broke my system. Since the most recent fix, I have the packages on hold so that they don’t ever get updated again. I just want them to work from here on…
