dotfiles

My personal dotfiles for linux systems (mainly void linux).

Activate All

Using stow:

stow */

ZSH Requirements

Modify /etc/zsh/zshenv:

export ZDOTDIR=~/.config/zsh

Change default shell:

chsh --shell /usr/bin/zsh

XDG Requirements

Create XDG directories:

cd ~
mkdir download picture
mkdir -p 3pp/pio-xdg
cd 3pp/pio-xdg
mkdir Desktop Documents Music Public Templates Videos 

emptty

For autologin:

# edit /etc/emptty/conf
sudo groupadd nopasswdlogin
sudo usermod $USER -aG nopasswdlogin

steam

Fix download speeds on steam client. Create ~/.steam/steam/steam_dev.cfg:

@nClientDownloadEnableHTTP2PlatformLinux 0
@fDownloadRateImprovementToAddAnotherConnection 1.0

npm global

Fix npm global installations to be used without sudo:

npm config set prefix "~/.local/npm-global"
