Set up Konsole to use Fish and prettify

 In Konsole, go to Settings, Configure Konsole, Profiles and create new profile and make it the default:

Restart Konsole.  micro ~/.config/fish/config.fish and add fastfetch to the last row.

In Konsole: fisher install IlanCosman/tide@v6 and go through the set-up steps. 

 

 alias --save ld="eza --long  --all --sort modified --total-size"

 alias --save lt="eza --long --all --tree --level=2 --sort modified --total-size"


Edit profile and get new themes (I like Otto); set font to meslo nerd fonts

Install Windows 11 on Virt-Manager

 Virt-Manager will have been installed in base install.  But to enable it (make sure SVM, or whatever virtualization is called in your BIOS is enabled). From https://computingforgeeks.com/install-kvm-qemu-virt-manager-arch-manjar/ sudo pacman -S qemu-full virt-manager virt-viewer dnsmasq vde2 bridge-utils openbsd-netcat dmidecode ip tables libguestfs edk2-ovmf swtpm Then enable and start libritd.service sudo systemctl enable libvirtd.service sudo systemctl start libvirtd.service sudo micro /etc/libvirt/libvirtd.conf Set the UNIX domain socket group ownership to libvirt, (around line 85 ) unix_sock_group = "libvirt" Set the UNIX socket permissions for the R/W socket (around line 102 ) unix_sock_rw_perms = "0770" Add your user account to libvirt group.   sudo usermod -a -G libvirt $(whoami) newgrp libvirt Restart libvirt daemon. sudo systemctl restart libvirtd.service Section below is quoted directly from https://linustechtips.com/topic/1379063-windows-11-in-virt-mana...

Getting rtcwake working on Bluefin

Then set the correct permissions: sudo chmod 440 /etc/sudoers.d/rtcwake-nopasswd #bash #After you've run those commands, we can test if passwordless sudo works: sudo rtcwake -m show #❯ sudo rtcwake -m show #alarm: off # Create user service directory mkdir -p ~/.config/systemd/user # Create helper script for suspend + rtcwake mkdir -p ~/bin cat > ~/bin/rtc-suspend.sh << 'EOF' #!/bin/bash # Helper script to suspend and set RTC wake time # Usage: rtc-suspend.sh "wake_time_description" if [ $# -ne 1 ]; then echo "Usage: $0 'wake_time_description'" echo "Example: $0 '15:00 today'" exit 1 fi wake_time="$1" wake_timestamp=$(date -d ...

Base Install

This blog is for my notes on setting up Arch from scratch to my liking. I use KDE Plasma as my desktop and my computers have a NVIDIA GPU (my Asus laptop also has an additional integrated GPU). I am not going to cover downloading the ISO, putting it on a USB, booting from the USB or running the Archinstall installer (selecting the Plasma desktop).

Don't have a /home partition added!  2. Don't forget desktop! 3. Install both linux and linux-zen kernels 4. Add additional packages:  wget git micro duf base-devel kde-applications to log in the first time it may be helpful to create /usr/lib/modprobe.d/nvidia.conf with "options nvidia_drm modeset=1 fbdev=1"   (although cachyos-settings will overwrite later) Apparmor  Add the following kernel parameters to your Boot Manager, see  Boot Manage...
