- A lot of arch users will get pissed as fuck at me
- but <b>its ok to use arch install</b>. I personally
- prefer manually installing arch and wouldnt want to do

- The <a href="https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Installation_guide"
- target="_blank">offical arch installation guide</a> and
- other resources on the arch wiki is a great way to
- install arch though I also like to
- use <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PQgyW10xD8s"
- target="_blank">distro tubes arch installation
- guide</a> alongside the resources. Some arch users may
- be pissed I dare tell people to go watch a youtube
- video. I am sure most arch installation guides on
- youtube suck but DT's video is killer. Plus its not a
- replacement for the wiki, its just to help follow it a
- bit easier and act as a good jumping off point.
- <br/><br/> Some things I gotta add is for me DT's video
- I linked doesnt work 100 percent. When setting up grub
- it cant find the efi directory. You gotta use a switch
- to show that command that fails the efi directory. I
- forgor the switch and I am too lazy to look it up but
- you can find it if the <code>--help</code> flag. Also
- to dual boot with nasty nasty MS Windows(R) you gotta
- install ntfs-3g for it to be able to read MS Windows(R)
- ntfs(R) Microsoft(R) partitions. You also gotta
- set <code>GRUB_DISABLE_OS_PROBER=false</code>
- in <code>/etc/default/grub</code> and mount the MS
- Windows(R) directory in the efi directory for OS proper
- to work sometimes.

- </ul>
- Guide for my system mostly and maybe yours:
- <ul>
- <li>
- Install some packages:<br/>
- <code>sudo pacman -Syu<br/>sudo pacman -S
- nvidia nvidia-utils nvidia-settings</code>
- </li>
-
- <li>
- Rebuild the initramfs:<br/>
- <code>sudo mkinitcpio -P</code>
- </li>
-
- <li>
- Follow <a href="https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/NVIDIA_Optimus#LightDM"
- target="_blank">a guide found here</a> to
- setup lightdm for nvidia.
- </li>
-
- <li>
- Open up the xfce startup app thingy and
- add <code>nvidia-settings
- --load-config-only</code> as a startup app so
- your nvidia settings load on login.
- </li>
-
- <li>
- After reboot you can check the drivers with:
- <ul>
- <li>
- My prefered way:<br/>
- <code>
- sudo pacman -S mesa-utils<br/>
- glxinfo | grep -E "OpenGL
- vendor|OpenGL renderer"
- </code>
- </li>
-
- <li>Another
- way: <code>nvidia-smi</code></li>
- </ul>
- </li>
-
- <li>
- For multi monitor refresh rate issues add these
- to your /etc/environment<br/>
- <code>
- CLUTTER_DEFAULT_FPS=<refresh rate of
- your sync monitor><br/>
- __GL_SYNC_DISPLAY_DEVICE=<monitor to
- sync to>
- </code>
- <br/> Then open your nvidia settings, go to
- OpenGL Settings and turn off "Allow Flipping".

- <p>
- Fedora has a little extra setup you wouldn't see in something like linux mint though
- it isn't that bad.
- </p>
- <h3>Packages</h3>
- <p>
- You can speed up dnf by adding these to /etc/dnf/dnf.conf<br>
- <code>
- max_parallel_downloads=20<br/>
- fastestmirror=True
- </code>
- <br/><br/>
- The default repos have lots of stuff but you might want an app that isn't in it like steam.
- I know the gnome version has a enable 3rd party repos button that does everything I listed here
- but I am on the xfce version and also had to do this on the kde verison.
- </p>
- <ul>
- <li>
- Setup rpm fusion to get more packages in dnf with the
- <a href="https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/quick-docs/rpmfusion-setup/" target="_blank">resources here</a>
- </li>
- <li>
- Install flatpak if not already there using "sudo dnf install flatpak" then add
- <a href="https://flathub.org/setup/Fedora" target="_blank">flathub</a>
- to get some cool apps!
- </li>
- </ul>
-
- <h3>Multimedia</h3>
- <p>
- By default fedora doesn't have many codecs and you need to install them yourself.
- Without them many media files will not work and lots of youtube videos will not be able to play.
- The fedora docs use to show how to install them but they removed it from their page
- and instead shows a new version which installs some stuff but not everything.
- I do both of them to make sure I get all the codecs I need.
- </p>
- <ul>
- <li>Update your system with <code>sudo dnf upgrade</code></li>
- <li>Install the new packages with <code>sudo dnf group install multimedia</code></li>
- <li>
- Install the old ones with these three commands in a row:
- <ul>
- <li><code>sudo dnf install gstreamer1-plugins-{bad-\*,good-\*,base}
- gstreamer1-plugin-openh264 gstreamer1-libav --exclude=gstreamer1-plugins-bad-free-devel</code></li>

- By default xfce is a very plain desktop and looks kind

- <ul>
- <li>Install nicer icons like papirus, can never go

- Install kvantum and kvantum-qt5 to change qt

- <code>

- Whisker menu for those who want a more modern menu:
- <ul>
- <li>Install whisker menu for a way better
- menu</li>
- <li>Go into the panel settings to remove the
- old one and change it to whisker menu.</li>
- </ul>
- </li>
- <li>
- Enable clipman as one of the startup apps for a kde
- like clipboard.
- </li>
- <li>
- Make some nicer keybinds:
- <ul>
- <li>
- Bind <code>xfce4-popup-whiskermenu</code>
- to something like alt+f1 than use xcape to
- bind it to super to get around the xfce
- super key bug. Add <code>xcape -e
- 'Super_L=Alt_L|F1'</code> as a startup
- application or whatever dummy keybind you
- binded to whiskermenu. Sadly xfce cant bind
- anything to super key without breaking
- other shortcuts that use super so we have
- to use xcape in a painful hacky way.
- </li>
- <li>Bind "super+v"
- to <code>xfce4-clipman-history</code> to make
- it feel more like the kde clipboard</li>
- </ul>
- </li>
- <li>
- Make new windows show up at the mouse by going into
- the "Window ManagerTweaks" "Placement" tab, turning
- the minimum size all the way up and chaning the
- place windows position to under the mouse pointer.
- </li>
- <li>
- Go into "Window Manager" and set a cooler window
- style and more sane shortcuts for virtual desktops.
- </li>
- <li>
- Go into "Window Manager Tweaks" and fuck around
- with the compositor settings for cool clear things.

- <h2>Rofi in xfce</h2> The default xfce appfinder been
