i3 config from /u/twodogsdave
If this is hard to read in your browser, just copy the text and paste it into your editor.
Turn 'line wrapping' on. :)
This is a 'how to' for anyone interested in a i3 setup and also for anyone currently
using i3 and wants to tweak there setup a little more. I am constantly updating my
i3 config with cool 'stuff.' I hope you enjoy reading and if you use some of the code,
great! I don't know everything and am still learning, too. :)
This is my system settings for i3. Specifically, I use [Manjaro i3](https://forum.manjaro.org/index.php?topic=28022.0).

A set of instructions on how to fix the harfbuzz + Infinality issue and restoring good-looking, Infinality-like font rendering.

Disclaimer: Please follow this guide being aware of the fact that I'm not an expert regarding the things outlined below, however I made my best attempt. A few people in IRC confirmed it worked for them and the results looked acceptable.

Attention: After following all the steps run gdk-pixbuf-query-loaders --update-cache as root, this prevents various gdk-related bugs that have been reported in the last few hours. Symptoms are varied, and for Cinnamon the DE fails to start entirely while for XFCE the icon theme seemingly can't be changed anymore etc.

Check the gist's comments for any further tips and instructions, especially if you are running into problems!

HardenedArray / Encrypted Arch Linux VirtualBox Guest Installation Procedure
Last active April 6, 2025 15:25
Efficient Encrypted Arch Linux Guest Installation in VirtualBox with a Full Plasma/KDE Environment. Perfect for Arch Linux Evaluation and Experimentation!
# OBJECTIVES: Install Arch Linux as a VirtualBox Guest with a complete Plasma5/KDE environment.
# Provide encrypted root and swap filesystems and UEFI boot our Arch Guest from within VirtualBox.
# Note: This install method is specific to VirtualBox (VBox) to allow non-Arch users and Arch testers to evaluate a properly
# configured and secure Arch OS while running a fully enabled Plasma/KDE system, and also by concurrently taking advantage
# of the multiple isolation safeguards inherently provided by the VBox environment.
# For those who want to install Arch on bare metal in a way that supports both dedicated Arch installations and Arch
# installation on a SSD/HDD multi-OS-UEFI-booting system, please refer to my Arch System Installation Guide, here:

HardenedArray / Efficient UEFI Encrypted Root and Swap Arch Linux Installation Procedure with an ENCRYPTED BOOT
Last active February 13, 2025 21:49
Efficient UEFI Encrypted Root and Swap Arch Linux Installation with an ENCRYPTED BOOT
# OBJECTIVE: Install Arch Linux with encrypted root and swap filesystems with an ENCRYPTED BOOT and boot from UEFI. We will
also decrypt and mount our entire encrypted system using a single LUKS passphrase entry.
# Note: This method supports both dedicated Arch installs and those who wish to install Arch on a multi-OS-UEFI booting system.
# External USB HDD/SSD Installers Notes: Encrypted Arch installs can be booted and run from an external USB HDD or SSD, but
# only when the installation is correctly set up. There are several necessary changes to my standard procedure you'll want
# to make during the install process. Read my External USB HDD/SSD Installation section below before proceeding.
