Thoughts on using Manjaro (Arch) Linux with Blender

Hi,

I was hoping to hear some opinions about Manjaro Linux. I’m considering moving to it from Ubuntu since it’s supposed to be beginner friendly but powerful at the same time. Here are some of the things that are important to me:

1 - Ease of installation/use, I use Ubuntu currently (approx 2 years) but still consider myself a Linux lightweight.

2 - Graphics drivers that just work

3 - Rolling release

4 - Fast/responsive - lower system resources

5 - Must work with: Blender, Gimp, Krita, Lightworks, Ardour… etc.

Anyone have any experience with it, comments?
