iso-profiles

The Artix ISO profiles

The community profiles (Plasma-LXQt and MATE-LXDE) are mostly symlinks to community. Only a few files/directories differ that accomodate settings specific to the flavour. Those files/directories are not symlinks.

Compared to base/lxqt profiles, the community profiles differ in:

  1. /etc/skel is a lot more populous, as it contains DE and application settings
  2. A few scripts in /etc/local.d/ get executed at first boot: 
    • theme-root creates in /root/.config some symlinks to /etc/skel/.config, for allowing sudo apps follow the overall theme, and gets deleted after execution
    • artix-icons converts all start-here.png icons in /usr/share/icons to the Artix logo
    • 0-remove-openbox-sessions deletes openbox entries in /usr/share/xsessions; openbox sessions are unconfigured and can even hang if chosen. Also gets deleted after execution
    • change-machine-id replaces machine-id in /etc and /var/lib/dbus at every boot
    • mkinitcpio detects whether the installation is encrypted or not and modifies /etc/default/grub and /etc/mkinitcpio.conf accordingly
  3. The default erowise mirror in mirrorlist-arch is commented out for being very slow
  4. rc.local enables the magic sysrq key and replaces the boring /etc/issue with a neofetch dump
  5. A nice DIR_COLORS is present in /etc.
  6. /etc/environment sets QT_QPA_PLATFORMTHEME=gtk2 and QT_STYLE_OVERRIDE=gtk in the GTK ISO. Only the latter is needed in QT (I think, forgot to test).
  7. /etc/vconsole.conf is symlinked to conf.d/consolefont, which is a merge of both. This allows both OpenRC to set the console font and mkinitcpio run the hook early at boot.
  8. /etc/xdg/kcm-about-distrorc is branded for Artix. There are a few more config files there, stolen from other distros.
  9. The mkinitcpio.conf in desktop profile is preconfigured for rootfs encryption, otherwise system becomes unbootable at first kernel upgrade. If encryption isn't enabled, the script in local.d removes the setting.
  10. There's a custom local.bashrc in bashrc/bashrc.d, with a better PS1 and a few useful aliases and customizations.
  11. default/grub is preconfigured with the artix-grub-theme and rootfs encryption; see no.9.
  12. elogind/logind.conf sets KillUserProcesses=no, which seems to be forgotten to incredibly stupid default 'yes'
  13. In profile.d/ libreoffice is themed with SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN=gtk
  14. rc.conf sets rc_parallel and rc_crashed_start to YES
  15. /etc/hosts for live sets artix to loopback, some programs hung for a while resolving it
  16. The branding icons in /usr/share/icons/matefaenzadark are set to Artix
  17. 60-ioschedulers.rules in udev/rules.d sets I/O scheduler according to disk type (ssd/rotational)
  18. /root/.config contains settings for Midnight Commander
  19. /usr/lib/firefox/distribution/distribution.ini is branded for Artix
  20. An untested and possibly incomplete theme for LXDM lies in /usr/share
  21. A KDE .rules file from Fedora is put in /usr/share/polkit-1/rules.d
  22. A tweaked SDDM theme appears in /usr/share/sddm
  23. /etc/lightdm in GTK is themed and present in both live and desktop GTK, configured for autologin in the former
