ладно, зайдем с другой стороны, есть ли дистр в котором это работает?

vadik
с чего вдруг? Например версию ядра у себя и в текущем арче сравните. Ну и по остальным пакетам может быть таже петрушка.
Короче - тему в dev/null.

noideal, по делу спрашивай на форуме Manjaro!
или ставь Арч, и уж потом по делу спрашивай совета у аречеводов!
