You'll find spins for KDE Plasma, GNOME, and Xfce. If you're interested, download an ISO of CachyOS and install it on a spare computer or create a virtual machine to see what's what. With a standard KDE Desktop interface, super fast app installation, and room to grow, this Arch-based Linux distribution might be a great option for those who are serious about learning more about Linux than is offered by those distributions targeted primarily for new users. Would I recommend CachyOS to new users?īut that's not in the form of "OMG, avoid this Linux distribution like the plague!" Rather, it's akin to "There are distributions that are much easier for learning the ins and outs of Linux." However, if you've already been exposed to Linux and are looking to jump on board the Arch Linux train, CachyOS is a great option. And that installed the full complement of tools, including LibreOffice Base (which is the open-source equivalent to MS Access). Installing LibreOffice took about 10 seconds to complete. ![]() More to the point, installing apps on CachyOS is considerably faster than most Linux distributions I've used. The rest of the settings are fine by default.One nice thing about the CachyOS Package Installer: It's surprisingly fast. Same thing applies to Window Titlebars, Enable the 2 extra buttons, Minimize and Maximize. Under top bar just enable everything except for battery percentage if you don't have a battery. Under Startup Applications you can add guake and nextcloud if you have them installed. With it, you can create and modify archives, view the contents of an archive, view a file contained in the. Under fonts you can change the fonts, I would not mess too much with this. File Roller is an archive manager for GNOME. Under the extensions tab you can adjust the settings for the extensions you have installed, but we already did that, You can always adjust more if you like. General is the first tab that opens, Heere you can disable Suspend when laptop lid is closed, This only applies if you have a laptop, I prefer to keep the system on if I close the lid, If I want it to shut down I will do that manually.Ĭlick on the appearance tab and select Adwaita-dark for Applications and set Icons to Numix-Square, Ofcourse you can download and set any theme you want. Now we are going to customize the Tweaks application, Open it, you can find it in your menu. If you use any other resolution than the largest I recommend to copy your Gnome configuration to the GDM configuration to do that run the following command Under Devices go to screen, Set your preferred desktop resolution and the maximum available Refresh Rate, If you use Large resolutions you can scale all elements of the desktop. Under Network you can add your VPN if you use one of those. Under Power you can set some settings, I personally set Blank screen to 10 minutes disable the rest and set the power button to do nothing, If you use a laptop you might want to use different settings. Under sound you can select the correct sound in and outputs Under Privacy you can adjust some settings, But the default is fine. fr-archive-libarchive.c in GNOME file-roller through 3.36.1 allows Directory Traversal during extraction because it lacks a check of whether a file's parent is a symlink to a directory outside of the intended extraction location. Under Online accounts you can add your Nextcloud Account, I would not recommend using any of the other services ![]() Under Language you can set the language you prefer, note that you first need to add them using the instructions in step 17 Under search only select the programs you want to search in when you search in the overview (The thing you get into when hitting the Windows key) You can also change the order by dragging and dropping. Under Notifications, Turn of Popups, and turn of Lock Screen Notifications You can now go ahead and add any bluetooth devices you use, Start Firefox, wait a bit, close it and start it again, All extensions settings and configuration should be done :) ![]() Now go to /home/USERNAME/.mozilla/firefox/RANDOMCHARACTERS.PROFILENAMEĬlose firefox, remove all contents in the folder and then copy the contents of the downloaded archive into the current folder So in the RANDOMCHARACTERS.PROFILENAME folder should be prefs.json and the other files and folders, Don't put the FirefoxProfile folder in it but the contents of that folder. Here click on create new profile, Click next, give it a name and click on Finish. Now we need to extract it, and put the contents of the folder in our firefox profile folder.įirst create a new profile open firefox and go to about:profiles Welcome to Firefox, We can't set all settings in the application settings, we need to adjust the profile for that, You can create your own configuration over at But you can also use my configuration which blocks most trackers without breaking most websites.ĭownload the archive from my server using this link
