Suggestions on what to install / useful packages?
Also, favorite linux packages thread?

Sleeping is buggy on linux, you doing hybrid or straight sleep? I'd suggest installing pm-utils if you have those kinds of problems, then sleep using it.
>tfw forgot to compile gentoo with touchscreen support at all
thanks, ill look into it.
touchscreen works fine and all, but after sleep/hybernate i get phantom touches and cursor goes wonky.
instead of dealing with it i just diabled it via xinput -disable "ELAN Touchscreen"
i barely use it anyays, and if i want it on, i can just enable it.
Using Octopi atm, somewhat new to linux and using that to discover packages. plan on dumping it soon.

Get yaourt, it's really good for installing AUR packages.
I'd suggest installing one manually first so you get an idea for how exactly the AUR and compiling packages works on Arch though, it's good to know when you eventually find a package that isn't on the repos or AUR.
Try Infinality for easy and nice font rending

yeah you can kill yourself

Jesus plebs. Aur.sh is obviously the best.
