MANJARO REDSHIFT INSTALL
I use it all the time: option 9 to install new software and option 5 to remove. yaourt-gui → While saying “GUI” in the name, it’s actually terminal-based.yaourt → It’s basically a piece of software complimentary to pacman.I installed nothing manually, and for anything that wasn’t available I created and uploaded an AUR package to the repository. Just a quick note: All applications are available as pacman and/or AUR packages. Add custom scripts to Dolphin Service Menu.I will also try to keep this post updated with further changes and improvements I do down the road. Not for anyone to replicate my setup (although it’s also possible), but to inspire, so anyone can take from it whatever they think is for them. Instead, in this post I’m going to document my configuration, installed software and tweaks I’ve been applying to my system. I will not go on details regarding those, and other benefits such as rolling release. The reason for that basically comes down to the pacman package manager, the simply amazing documentation of Arch Linux and the absolute customizability of KDE. More than that, I even think of migrating my other machines to Arch Linux whenever I have the chance to do it. And only after this short period of time, I don’t see myself going back to Debian any time soon, if at all.
MANJARO REDSHIFT DRIVER
It was two weeks ago, when I created a new partition on my main machine, alongside the XFCE edition of Linux Mint which I was using as my daily driver (and hated almost every bit of it, btw), grabbed and installed the Manjaro KDE image, and have been using it since then.Īnd guess what? I absolutely LOVE it. It was actually when I tried Manjaro Linux Live USB last year that got me all excited for this specific distribution, and then falling in love with Kubuntu’s new Plasma desktop (after literally 5 years of not touching it), that got me to choose the KDE flavor of Manjaro. After using Debian and its descendants for a long time I thought I’d never change anything, but then, on a whim, I decided to just “try” and see what the guys on the Arch side of the Linux big lane have got to offer.
