What would be the correct way to install any ArchLabs configured de/wm, after I have already installed the entire system? For example the cinnamon desktop or i3. I just prefer them to be AL riced/configured.
I was searching the forums, and I found that there used to exist something called al-hello which I saw in action in a YT video (i thought it was really cool), I know it doesn’t exist these days. What to do ?
The second command copies over the contents of /etc/skel/ to your home directory and creates backups of any files already there (with the .bak suffix added) so that you can restore any post-installation configuration changes. Be sure to run the second command as your normal user though.
There are skel packages for awesome, bspwm, fluxbox, i3-gaps, openbox & xfce4.
Oh I didn’t realize you can do that with pacman (of course now I see it “archlabs_repo” in pacman.conf)!
Before your reply I accidentally wrote yay archlabs and what I saw - got me thinking. The problem though was, that I wasn’t completely aware of them being placed into /etc/skel after installing it (given my noobishness, it would of taken me maybe another 1-24h to figure out XD) but usually this is the game for me!
Got this to work, thank you so much learning a new thing every day. Now this is an useful ArchLabs specific thing to know about!
This was my “discovery” before I stopped , and came back here to read your reply:
