HA5PLS's fedora install documentation

  • partitioning: differs every time
  • dnf: cat ./dnf_packages.list | xargs sudo dnf install Automatic generation of this file is TODO. Note that these are my packages, filter them for your personal needs. Some may be dependencies of other tools (eg. mostly for nvim and LSPs)
  • packages: todo barusu + base system + repo carry
  • alacritty: .config/alacritty/alacritty.toml + fira_code_mono_nerd_font installed (todo: script)
  • serif font: install google-roboto-fonts (used in gtk, qt, waybar)
  • zsh: $ZDOTDIR set in /etc/zshenv + omz install (todo:script) + .config/zsh + install fzf-tab plugin (git clone https://github.com/Aloxaf/fzf-tab ${ZSH_CUSTOM:-~/.oh-my-zsh/custom}/plugins/fzf-tab) + for some reason $XDG_STATE_HOME/zsh needs to be created manually
  • hypr*: .config/hypr, install hyprlock, hyprsunset, hypridle,
  • hyprpaper: .config/hypr + download from here to .local/wallpapers (also used for grub & sddm & hyprlock)
  • waybar: .config/waybar + install fontawesome4-fonts (for icons)
  • rofi: .config/rofi + extract neccessary parts from https://github.com/adi1090x/rofi install script
  • rofi-qalc: needs rofi-wayland-1.7.5+wayland2-3.fc40.x86_64 (find it in downloads or fedora build system) until ABI is fixed, rofi-devel, then compile this by hand: https://github.com/svenstaro/rofi-calc
  • sddm: dependency: qt6-qtquickcontrols2 qt6-qtsvg, copy sddm/sddm.conf -> /etc/sddm.conf & sddm/themes/catppuccin-macchiato -> /usr/share/sddm/themes/ then # systemctl set-default graphical.target
  • nvim: .config/nvim + alacritty done + deps: clang (gcc-c++), unzip, npm, ripgrep, go, then proceed with nvchad init
  • swaync: .config/swaync
  • gtk: .config/gtk-*, dconf load /org/gtk/gtk4 < ./dconf-export/gtk4.dconf
  • MPV: $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/mpv/
  • QT5: .config/qt6ct/, xsettingsd/
  • kdeconnect: # firewall-cmd --permanent --add-service=kdeconnect + needs kdeconnectd restart to work
  • plymouth: copy plymouth/themes/fedora-mac-style -> /usr/share/plymouth/themes/ + install plymouth-plugin-two-step + (plymouth-set-default-theme -l -> if this displays the theme, installation can begin: sudo plymouth-set-default-theme -R fedora-mac-style && sudo dracut --regenerate-all -f)
  • grub: copy grub/grub -> /etc/default/grub & grub/themes -> /boot/themes then grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg To change font, you need grub2-tools-extra (for grub2-mkfont) and use it like grub2-mkfont -o grub/themes/catppuccin-macchiato/font.pf2 -s 24 /usr/share/fonts/<family>/<specimen>.ttf (after this you have to copy the configs again and regenerate the boot image)
  • udev: /etc/udev/rules.d/ (for setting driver permissions)
  • selinux: /etc/selinux/config to stay permissive (why even bother with selinux?)
  • firefox(librewolf btw): do your own profile, install catpuccin theme and darkreader
  • gnome tooling (file picker, keyring, etc): dconf load /org/gnome/desktop/ < ./dconf-export/gnome-desktop.dconf
  • nautilus (file manager): gtk set up, then dconf load /org/gnome/nautilus < ./dconf-export/nautilus.dconf
  • gedit (gui text editor): gtk set up, then dconf load /org/gnome/gedit < ./dconf-export/gedit.dconf
