Hello, I’m new to Linux. I have a reflector problem. I just installed the system, I update the repositories, an error is written. Tried to add something - it’s useless. Also, when installing the system, a window popped up with the choice of the Internet r8168 and r8169 (by default). I chose the defa…

As far as I am aware, it is not recommended to use the “worldwide” but I would simply use only the countries nearest to you. Anyone else may chime in that knows otherwise of course.

General practice is to run reflector once a month or as needed: yay -S…

@spikeletx sorry i forget, welcome to the forum :slight_smile: :purple_heart:

Yes thank you. Yandex also appeared, but one. Updated the system, but also. It’s enough for me. Therefore, it’s good. One thing is strange, the new system has just been installed. So I hope that the problem will be solved soon. Thank you!)))

Sorry, this is probably off topic. But how to update the system safely? Here comes an update how long to wait so that nothing flies. And what is more stable Kde or Gnome? I just heard that KDE settings are being reset. What do you think?
