    In my experience setting environment variables is pretty inconsistent. The easiest way would be using /etc/environment. This sets stuff globally for all users and definitely works.

    PAM also used to support a per-user environment file, but that’s deprecated or removed even. The best you can do for per-user config is setting variables both in your login shell and the systemd user environments file.












  • Support by packages is generally there. What is lacking however, are drivers for video acceleration and many other soc- and often board-specific customisations required.

    X86 in contrary offers one unified and queriable interface (ACPI, UEFI) that makes custom images unnecessary. ARM has ServerReady for that, however I’m not aware of any consumer chip that implements this.
