@SavvyNik do you have a discord, for people like me looking for assistance? I literally been trying to replace my main pc OS, everything I try something always wrong so I decided to go back to xmonad. The only issue I had with xmonad was the bar, it was too ugly and your bar app just help a 4yr issue. You have no idea how much this mean. Again thank you. I also love your coding videos.
@@SavvyNik ruclips.net/video/LGhifbn6088/видео.html&ab_channel=SavvyNik so I watched this video, what do I need to do so I can set this up? is there anything in between I'm missing, I'm brand new to arch and really exploring the linux kernel so any help is very appreciated
uhh my screen is just the wallpaper and when i open a terminal for some reason it won't update until i open a new terminal window and then i can see what i typed
I can confirm that this tutorial still works to this date! However, After installing everything, i got a very strange problem with the terminal where the text was very messed up. I somehow managed to get chromium downloaded and after closing and opening the terminal that problem went away & disappeared.
Just now, had the exact same problem and your solution worked for me. Thanks! The problem is the fonts are not (properly) installed. Installing Chromium will download additional fonts and update font cache, which fixes the issue.
If you need this to run on a VM (although it might be slow) here's a link to the instructions - github.com/Axarva/dotfiles-2.0/tree/main/VM I'll be making a vid for post setup for VM.
The past participle must be used with being or be, so if the verb is run, then it is run, not ran. We don't say in English, "being ran." We say being run.
Aha! I commented on 2 of your other videos, you can disregard them sorry! I failed to check for newer guides and of course you had one! already subscribed and liked cause this was actually helpful. But lst because the old version was using zsh i did not edit the file necessary for bash to work with xmonad. This video cleared it up for me! Now to see if I can get freerdp working.😀 edit: I lied, so xmonad shows up but the issue I am having now is that the screen doesnt appear to refresh or redraw automatically. for example if i use mod shift return it'll open up the terminal but in order for me to actually see the terminal I'll have to use mod space as if I were rearranging the tiles and then it finally draws the terminal window. If one terminal window is open I can open another and xmonad will actually show the animation that it opened another but If I have nothing open I have that issue. But overall it doesn't seem to be drawing realtime. Like I can type in terminal but doesn't show the text until I hit enter not sure if you've encountered this or if i'll need to go ask at the repo or maybe a discord server. Thanks either way! helped a bunch.
@@SavvyNik It's on a local machine non vm so thats why its odd EDIT: I boiled it down to I don't have the right graphics driver installed. Despite it being intel CPU the gpu being used in this system is an AMD ATI ES1000. Haven't resolved it either but I believe I am on the right track.
Can you explain a lil more in depth to how I can get the weather and the quote widget to work? I've just installed Arch Linux and am complete new and I didn't really understand the instructions on the dot files.
6:26 after installing the aur helper it says 'fatal: destination path '/home/User/.srcs/picom' already exists and is not an empty directory and just completely ends the installation. Any idea how to fix?
2560 by 1440 was an option, so I used it. After logging in i saw the desktop and tried to open the terminal which just blurred my window and did nothing. All the other commands also did not work. Yes i did at the path.

Thanks for the video!!! Can I install this in top of endeavourOS?
You said you’d explain how to do this in a VM? I tried it and it didn’t work :/ the GUI boots up but nothing is clickable and it looks like the bars are badly scaled
@@SavvyNik Thank you so much! But I’m kinda watching this video because I don’t know how to do these things myself haha, I understand I need to replace that config file with the one in the VM folder of the repo but I don’t know how to do that because I’m new at doing everything in a command line. Also is this before or after running the install-on-arch script?
This is done after installing the the configuration (post install). Looks like you'll have to wait for the next video where I explain how to get this working on the VM.
@@SavvyNik Okay so I learned how to do everything, I followed your video with no problems then just like you said, _after_ I ran the script I replaced the picom.config file as well as edited the xmonad.hs like it says in the instructions but I still get the same issue, when I boot up into the GUI none of the buttons work and I can't even bring up the terminal, everything is practicaly frozen/nonfunctional, and since I did everything as it said both on your video and on the GitHub I'm out of ideas, I'm kinda scared to do this on my main system now because I don't know if it's the VM or something else :/ By the way, my Arch install is perfectly fine since it's not even the first time I get Arch up and running, I've been using KDE until now with no issues.
I tried editing the icons on the top left by replacing the unicode logos with tint2conf but they don’t update for some reason after applying, what’s the fix for this
Linux noob here. Followed your guide completely but my terminal or vim are not rendering properly… the words are all jumbled up and I can’t make sense of anything
@@nebula-clips read the keybinds. try doing win (windows key) + shift + enter, it should bring up a terminal. if it didn't then your xmonad is messed up.
Hi!! Everything works fine but the terminal its freeze I can type command like firefox and its open and works fine but I cant see anything that Im typeing in it , and I really dont know what could be the problem
i have a laptop with the drive partitioned in 2. i have arch on both and the other one is a fresh install. may be i could tweak it from there? but i don't know what went wrong.
I did everything exactly on a clean install but when I exit and login at 13:40 it gets stuck and I see no wallpaper or anything. The last line reads "Using system config directory "/usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d"" so I think this might be an issue with xorg? But I have no clue how to solve this at all. After waiting for a few hours I force reboot and as soon as I login it gets stuck there again.
hello, congratulations beautiful tutorial, my question and if I can install it too on the garuda version. Kernel: 5.17.4 de: plasma 5.24.4 cpu: intel i3-4030 gpu: intel haswell-ULT a thousand thanks
Yes you can but it's not a simple process. This is specifically designed for a completely new install of a blank arch linux environment. If you need help installing arch I have plenty of videos that walks you through step by step.
hello greetings, I did the whole tutorial as shown in the video, it did not throw any error but when I start xmonad only the desktop background appears and nothing else, nothing can be done
hm after XMonad first intall, I can open terminla mod+shift+enter but I cant write down into terminal, funny thing is what I write down can see it when I open another terminal, but is no active
now when update Virtual Machine, ARch dont start anymore "The virtual machine 'Arch' has terminated unexpectedly during startup .." It ask me to study logs, me newbe :), I will delete and set up again, thank you to find where was the problem
Really was looking forward to this but no matter what I do I can’t get the Alacritty terminal to display properly and breaks this whole setup. Lines keep stacking on top each other in the terminal.
@@freakydonald3611 Ok, well I actually just solved it. All it took was sudo pacman -S chromium. Apparently chromium downloads fonts that actually work, and it also corrects the font cache.

Can you explain a lil more in depth to how I can get the weather and the quote widget to work? I've just installed Arch Linux and am complete new and I didn't really understand the instructions on the dot files.
