🔗Screen locking
Add a service to lock the screen before suspending: nvim /etc/systemd/system/screenlock.service:
[Unit]
Description = Lock the screen
Before = sleep.target
[Service]
User = <username>
Environment = DISPLAY=:0
ExecStart = <screen-lock-command>
[Install]
WantedBy=sleep.target
🔗Software configuration
Most of the installed software either doesn't require manual configuration or has been configured in the dotfiles repo.
Configuration for the rest is described below:
🔗Bumblebee
gpasswd -a <user> bumblebee
systemctl enable bumblebeed
(system changes - restart system afterwards)
🔗CUPS
systemctl enable --now cups.socket
systemctl enable --now avahi-daemon.service
🔗Deluge
systemctl enable --now --user deluged.service
systemctl enable --now --user deluge-web.service
🔗Syncthing
systemctl enable --now --user syncthing.service
🔗QEMU
Create a BTRFS subvolume for QEMU images (disable COW):
mkdir -p ~/.local/share/qemu
chattr +C ~/.local/share/qemu
