At the start yes. But it deteriorates with time. I can't even update because of dependency conflicts and whatnot. My system is held together by ductape and a piece of bubble gum
Did you miss a required manual intervention on an update? A while ago there was an arch update that needed manual intervention cause of a dependency circle. Might be worth looking up the past year or so of manual intervention newsletter posts for Arch.
Last time I had a dependacy issue I was able to remove the conflicting package, update, then reinstall the package and it worked fine afterwards.
My own system was working great for a long while on an Arch flavour. But a bit ago HDR stopped working properly after an update and I just couldn't get it running right. Would display very dim.
Eventually gave up on my 2 year old install and went back to Tumbleweed.
I loved all the tinkering on Arch, but I just don't have it in me to do the tinkering anymore.
Just uninstall the kernel module that takes care of the GPU working properly, should solve the conflicts. You probably won't see the screen, so I advise to do a disk clone to a different PC and mirror your actions.
At this point i'd rather do a full reinstall. Would probably solve my other issues too
