• dots -> has all the configuration for the apps I am using
• scripts -> this folder makes Arch Linux usable

How To?

• symlink essentials like i3config, tmux etc into $HOME directory. I am not going to write commands to do symlinks here!!
• I am using Doom Emacs neovim these days, export ~$DOOMDIR~ environment variable in your .zshrc
• I recommend setting up .zshrc with oh-my-zsh if you want to have themes and plugins written and maintained by awesome people

Laptop and OS

• Lenovo Thinkpad e14 ryzen 7 with AMD Graphics [linux works much better in AMD processors]
• Arch Linux with pacman and yay package managers

Apps and Dependencies

• i3 window manager [ best if you are working with multiple monitors and use less mouse ]
• EMACS [ emacs-nativecomp in terminal, the GUI is not working ]
• neovim with some lua
• wezterm + tmux [ wezterm has lua, tmux is awesome ]
• rofi [ replacing dmenu for everything - commands, windows, clipboard ]
• xclip and greenclip [ xclip is native clipboard manager of X11 and greenclip is too good with rofi ]
• mplayer [ I don’t use this very much ]
• scrot for screenshots [ scrot -s <date>.png ]
• ranger [ terminal file manager, plus supports vim motions, but rarely use browsers ]
• firefox [ only because it has good vimium support ]

Troubleshooting

Keychron K2 is not working in wired mode

What is the issue?

the module hid-apple was not loaded and udev rules were not triggered.

solution||

• get some info on hid-apple kernel module with the help of modinfo

modinfo hid-apple

• you will see a bunch of information displayed, if not there is something wrong
• loading modules with modeprobe

sudo modeprobe hid-apple

• /sys/module/hid_apple/parameters/fnmode check if this file exists?
• add udev rules to /etc/udev/rules.d/70-keychron.rules

ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="05ac", ATTRS{idProduct}=="0220", RUN+="/bin/sh -c 'echo 2 > /sys/module/hid_apple/parameters/fnmode'"

bluetooth connection with K2 is not working yet!!!

TODOs for fridays

• [ ] bluetooth mouse is not working, fix this for Arch Linux
• [ ] have screen tearing, I don’t care much about this yet, till I get irritated
• [ ] thinkpad - tap to click is not working
• [X] keychron K2 wired mode is not working -> fixed
