This applies to anything. To desktops. To applications. To icons. To themes. To everything. Use it as a workflow. When you know what files you need, you can copy/paste them put them in scripts put them in packages - see pkgbuild tutorials

Github asks me always the login and password. Is there a way so that I do  not have to type in the login and password. If you run scripts one after other, there is always input needed from the user and everything halts. Use ssh authentication. The commands I have used...

Changing the content of your /etc/lsb-release will change the look of neofetch. After the video we know it is looking in the description. And even later we discoverd it looks in both lines. Bottom-line : ensure both lines have your distronameLet us investigate...

There are two pacman.conf files. 1. to make the iso itself - reference to carli repo is needed - Calamares is in there 2. for the future system - used after installing and rebooting

We show you how to theme Xfce4. The workflow matters and not the choices we make. There is also a super tip in how to get files out of your Virtual Box to the host so we can create a package. All packages you add/use have to be on the iso. Refering to the capitaine...

It is always about choices. ArcoLinux runs in 2021 on Pulseaudio. Alci has no sound at all. Why not give Carli pipewire? In order to enjoy music I like to have my bluetooth headset available so we explain how to add services.It could be any other service like...

We want to see how the poly-dark looks on real metal. The only way to see it is to create a new grub theme. Since we already have a poly-light the poly-dark is easily created.

In this video we will check the pkgbuild. We are using 'convenience' or 'maintenance' files. It makes no sense these packages go on the users system. So we remove them from the source folder before the building happens.

We would like Calamares to give a prompt to the user. prompt-install: true You can find the setting in settings.conf of your Calamares config.

We want to change one of the icons. We saw a 'tux' icon and changed its appearance. We keep the originals always around.... you never know. I discovered there were two tux icons So I had to do the exercise twice. crux.png gnu-linux.png This is just a quick fix. Later...

We discover the calamares.desktop file is still on the users desktop. We figure out a way to remove it. Use the tools we have in Calamares and write an extra bash line.

We have been using Plasma as desktop till Carli10. It is time to show how easy it is to change to any desktop out there. The major desktops do not need a config. Tiling Window Managers often do need a config to function. Do not forget to change the /etc/sddm.conf as...

We would like to change the name of the iso. Now it is a version. But it is a manual change. If you forget to change it ... it gets overwritten. So let us change it to a date like I did on https://alci.online. We have to change the building scripts a little bit. At...

We have a look at the current state of the Carli 10 project and think what we can still explain. getting rid of all the netmodules - back to the KISS principle change from version name to date name switching from Plasma to Xfce4 removing the calamares.desktop file...
