Great Video. I liked the part where you encrypted home directory. Below is something I want to say about the points. 1. Average user do not need use LTS kernel. arch shipped one is fine. If someone wants extra stability kernel-wise they might use LTS. I personally use ck kernel for Haswell. Worth using ones are the hardening ones like grsecurity (now paid stable only). 2. You are supposed install it before you even boot up. Not post installation in my opinion. 3. This is one more reason to avoid grub if possible. To disable timeout this is so much work. I recommend using systemd-boot if you're using UEFI ( or even rEFInd if you want nice interface). Grub is pretty complex and bloated to make it work on everything. Systemd-boot by default disables timeout and it can be enabled with a single uncomment. 4. Nice. 5. Average use may not need firewall. Linux doesn't open ports like windows. It's helpful to have some extra security. 6. Great thing. Might also check whole disk encryption. 7,8. Run periodically as building packages leave orphaned packages and after some time optimisation gets away. 9. Nice one. Will keep in mind. 10. I have my own script and backup to cloud if hard-disk gets corrupted. Overall Great video

if i have recently purchased new computer or laptop with high end processor and high end graphics card then i would prefer to install bleeding edge kernel where new kernel code for new features are continously added for the new hardware launched in market which u may find this support missing or abscent in older or LTS kernels. but if i have 5 year old computer then there is no point in installing bleeding edge kernels and best option is to stay on LTS kernel which is very stable and secure. LTS kernel is not bad. some of the features from latest kernel is backported to LTS kernel.

One thing to do after encrypting home directory is to disable auto login or it will do all sorts of weird stuff My issue was when I first started booted the laptop, I get the mouse pointer but not actually logon, I press ctrl+alt+f2 and logon normally but not on plasma through sddm I went over the steps and read the Arch wiki as well as the Ubuntu guide as well, everything was as described but still I was not getting the login screen as I should on tty1 I was reading and reading about the ecryptfs and I stumbled on a comments that mentioned reason behind encrypting the swap partition and how that prevented leaking information that was stored temporary on the swap partition. It all hit me at once, autologin was actually defeating the purpose of having my home folder encrypted, so I went and disabled it and voila I am back to normal behavior again.

All you have to do is activate the daemon on boot by typing this command in terminal: $ systemctl enable NetworkManager.service If you want to activate it instantly without rebooting, use this command: $ systemctl start NetworkManager.service Good luck :)

If I don't use grub but UEFI only what I must to do after installing lts kernel and intel-ucode?
@AverageLinuxUser6 жыл бұрын
You mean you use bootctl. I have never used it. Please google how to enable LTS kernel with bootctl

Just a question, since Arch is a rolling release distro, what's the benefit of installing a long term support kernel?
@AverageLinuxUser7 жыл бұрын
I think there are various reasons. I personally experienced some incompatibilities between the latest kernel and virtualbox which is updated less frequently. Since I switched to LTS, I had no virtualbox problems. I think the same issue can happen with video drivers. So, unless you need some latest feature that is available only in the latest kernel, I recommend sticking to LTS.
@HigherPlanes7 жыл бұрын
Oh okay. I've been running the latest kernel since 2014 but I don't really run virtualbox, I use boxes whenever I do use a virtualvisor, which is seldom. Thanks for making these vids they're very pro!

Overall, an LTS kernel is supposed to be more stable. But Arch is very stable for a rolling release any way. Thank you for your kind words about my videos.

+shaddartheimba, press the shift or esc key during boot and the grub menu should appear.

Reboot. At boot hold shift (or esc) to open Grub menu. Then select to load the lts kernel. Remove the standard kernel: pacman -R linux Reconfigure grub: grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cnf Reboot. Also you better have a backup of your system when you do this :)

Hello Alexandre, It seems that you have some problems with UEFI, acpi and bluetooth. Read Arch Wiki and make sure you configured everything correctly: wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Unified_Extensible_Firmware_Interface wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/ACPI_modules wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Bluetooth Best, ALU

Fantastic. But a doubt? Backup restore? Is it correct in my own way? Sudo rsync -aAXvP /mnt/backupDestination/* --delete --exclude=/dev/* --exclude=/proc/ * --exclude=/sys/* --exclude=/tmp/* --exclude=/run/* --exclude=/mnt/* --exclude=/media/* --exclude=/lost + found /
@AverageLinuxUser7 жыл бұрын
no, it is not. It should be in this order: rsync -aAXvP options source destination. For your command it will be: rsync -aAXvP --delete --exclude=/dev/* --exclude=/proc/* --exclude=/sys/* --exclude=/tmp/* --exclude=/run/* --exclude=/mnt/* --exclude=/media/* --exclude=/lost + found /mnt/backupDestination/* / To restore a whole system you need to copy backup from a live session, not from a working system. I will make a detailed video on backup in a couple of week.

Do you recommend Arch/Debian over Mints, Ubuntu's & Manjaro?
@AverageLinuxUser7 жыл бұрын
Hello Rob! It depends on your purposes. I actually use Mint too. Arch is the best if you want to learn linux and have full control of your system. Manjaro is great if you think about using Arch but you are not sure yet :-) Debian Testing is good if want a rolling deb distro. Debian Stable is good if you care about nothing but stability. Mint is the best if you want to install Linux as fast as possible and work on it without worrying about system maintaince. Ubuntu is great if you like Unity. If you are ok with Mate, Ubuntu Mate is as good as Mint. These are the reasons that first came to my mind.

I'm looking to give this Arch Linux a try but i wanted to know if i dont like it is it easy to revert back to windows 10? This is my first laptop and im starting to realise that i dont like Microsoft, i have a privacy issue with them and im seeing im not in control of my laptop as much as id like to be.
@AverageLinuxUser7 жыл бұрын
Hello Jason, Arch Linux is not recommended for new linux users. You better try Linux Mint, Ubuntu, Ubuntu Mate, Elementary OS. You can any of them in a VirtualBox. It's a free program. Install it on Windows and then install Linux inside it. I don't have a tutorial on it yet. but search KZbin, you will definitely find some tutorials.

Hi :) Thanks for the great videoes. I have seen them several times and I should really try your suggestions. I have a small problem after my first install. I have overlapping letters in termite but not in other terminals. I can't really find the right solution and creating and editing the font in my ~/.config/termite/config does nothing. It seems like not many font are installed with xorg and i3. Do you have any suggestions?

I cannot say much on encryption. I use eCryptfs for full-disk encryption, because it is simple to use. Veracrypt is based on TrueCrypt. My experience with TrueCrypt was only positive until it disappeared. So, Veracrypt should be good.
