My Arch hyprland

For some reason this dystopian background fits arch perfectly. I have no bars or menus.

Listing your AUR packages

With all the chaos going on at the AUR I don't feel like using it anymore but I have a few packages on my arch.

To list what AUR packages is on your system use this command.

pacman -Qm

  • -m (Foreign): Restricts the output to "foreign" packages—meaning they aren't available in any of the official repositories defined in your /etc/pacman.conf (like [core], [extra]

Auto Snapshot For Arch - Snapper, Snap-pac and Grub-btrfs for Arch

I think snapper with snap-pac and grub-btrfs is the best combo to make sure you have snapshots of your arch when you break it.

Snapper is the actual program making the snapshot and snap-pac makes sure a snapshot gets taken with each Arch update automatically.

Grub-btrfs takes the snapshots and put it in your grub boot menu so you will actually see the snapshots together with your normal boot entry.

To make a true backup use the internal linux btrfs tools to take your snapshots and make a backup to another drive or shared folder.

btrfs-send and btrfs-receive**:** Native Linux terminal utilities. You can use btrfs send to stream a read-only Snapper snapshot directly into a file or across a network to an external Btrfs-formatted drive.
