I have kind of short term memory so I like to take note of what I've done. This cheat-sheet log some of the things I've done to my Arch Linux machine. Lots of these stuffs are based on my personal preference and may not be applicable to you. Also take note that: I'm not responsible if you break your machine by following any of the steps in this …

- https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=129274 | |
- rm -R .gconf .gnome2 .config/xfce4 .config/xfce4-session .cache | |
- I did pacman -Syu before and after the installation of xfce, but my problem was after the installation there was a file at /etc/profile.d/locale.sh that was causing a conflict and not allowing the system to update at all. I never noticed it and when it went back to the cursor so fast I automatically assumed everything was up to date and it had nothing to do. I removed the locale.sh file, ran pacman -Syu, and everything updated as it should and xfce works flawlessly now. | |
- https://www.archlinux.org/news/initscripts-update-manual-intervention-required/ | |
- Summary: Please manually delete /etc/profile.d/locale.sh before updating. If . /etc/rc.conf fails in your login shell, please read the full announcement. | |

+ Arch IRC members say don't use pm-*crap, use this instead: | |
systemctl suspend | |
. How to lock screen when suspend using the above command | |
. Create file slock.service and put it in /etc/systemd/system/ | |
[Unit] | |
Description=Lock X session using slock - Tung | |
[Service] | |
User=squallltt | |
Environment=DISPLAY=:0 | |
ExecStart=/usr/bin/slock | |
[Install] | |
WantedBy=sleep.target | |
. Then run: sudo systemctl enable slock.service | |
. Then everytime we suspend by using: systemctl suspend, it will lock | |
the screen as well | |
. List systemctl service: systemctl -t service -a | grep slock | |
- Adjust keyboard delay: | |

+ sudo pacman -S intel-dri xf86-video-intel bumblebee nvidia | |
+ add user to bumblebee group: gpasswd -a squallltt bumblebee | |
+ start bumblebee automatically at startup: systemctl enable bumblebeed | |
+ reboot! | |
+ by doing those previous steps, it fix the error: | |
. "EnterVT failed for screen 0" | |
. that means: every time a computer is suspended or press Ctrl+Alt+F2 | |
then the X server is terminated and all other applications are killed | |
+ The url link also provides a troubleshooting: | |
Fatal IO error 11 (Resource temporarily unavailable) on X server | |
Change KeepUnusedXServer in /etc/bumblebee/bumblebee.conf from false to true | |
- For VirtualBox guest running Arch: | |
+ if the file ~/.xinitrc has: | |
sudo VBoxClient-all & | |
sudo systemctl start vboxservice.service | |
then need to make sure that we don't need sudo password for | |
VBoxClient-all and systemctl (or else, we will receive error | |
EnterVT failed for screen 0). Solving by doing this: | |
. sudo visudo -f /etc/sudoers | |
. add: | |
## Allow sudo for user squallltt and let him run VboxClient-all without requiring a password | |
squallltt ALL = PASSWD: ALL, NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/VBoxClient-all, /usr/sbin/ip, /usr/sbin/wpa_supplicant, /usr/sbin/dhcpcd, /usr/bin/truecrypt, /usr/bin/systemctl | |
* Disable menu in Virtualbox: | |
- VBoxManage setextradata global GUI/Customizations noMenuBar,noStatusBar | |
* Vim: write to root permission file in vim | |
- add to .vimrc file: cmap w!! w !sudo tee % | |
- run: vim /path/to/file as usual | |
- then when we want to save, just issue: w!! | |
- then press l | |
* irssi : IRC | |
Source: http://blog.dhampir.no/content/irssi-auto-connect-and-auto-identify | |
vim ~/.irssi/config | |
There are loads of irssi scripts which do this, but the truth is irssi actually supports these things very well out of the box. Here's how. | |
Start up irssi, then: | |
/connect irc.freenode.net | |
/nick MyIRCNick | |
/SERVER ADD -auto -network freenode irc.freenode.net 6667 <password> | |
(you may have to shutdown and restart irssi at this point for it to recognize the network name "freenode" in the next step) | |
/CHANNEL ADD -auto #ubuntu freenode | |
Another method of auto-identifying is seen below. The above is generally preferred. | |
/NETWORK ADD -autosendcmd "/^msg NickServ IDENTIFY password;wait 2000" freenode | |
Ignore join, part, quit message: add the following to config file: | |
ignores = ( | |
{ | |
level = "JOINS PARTS QUITS"; | |
channels = ( "#archlinux", "#vim", "#python" ); | |
network = "FreeNode"; | |
}, | |
{ | |
level = "MODES"; | |
channels = ( "&bitlbee" ); | |
network = "BitlBee"; | |
} | |
); | |
