Install

git clone https://github.com/MateiSR/dotfiles ~/dotfiles
cd ~/dotfiles
./install.sh --gpu nvidia

Use amd or intel instead when appropriate. Omit --gpu to leave graphics drivers alone.

The installer updates the system with the default paclists, bootstraps paru, installs the AUR paclist, applies the dotfiles, and installs or updates:

• Qogir-white cursor, Tela/Tela-dark icons, and Orchis-Dark-Compact
• Matugen color overrides for GTK 3, GTK 4, and libadwaita apps
• csgo-vulkan-fix through HyprPM
• Oh My Fish and tmux plugins
• split-monitor-workspaces on the release branch matching Hyprland
• SDDM Astronaut from upstream Git with Matugen wallpaper/colors

It is safe to rerun after an update:

git pull --ff-only
./install.sh --gpu nvidia

Optional flags:

--with-xorg
--with-archiso
--without-omf
--dry-run

The default official paclists are Apps, Coding, Fonts, Hyprland, Multimedia, Network, and Print. The ArchISO and full Xorg lists are opt-in. Package commands use --needed and keep pacman/paru confirmation prompts.

Machine configuration

Edit the machine-local files created from the .example templates:

• ~/.config/dotfiles/machine.lua — monitors, GPU, workspace integration, input devices, and per-machine autostart
• ~/.config/dotfiles/git.conf — git identity
• ~/.config/dotfiles/scripts/gs_zipline_conf.sh — Zipline upload key

bootstrap.sh can be run alone after repository updates. It uses Git history to remove links for deleted tracked files, links the current files, and refreshes generated configs:

./bootstrap.sh

Fonts are defined in .config/matugen/keywords.json.

Desktop shell

Ironbar is the top bar and owns the launcher and power controls. External DDC/CI brightness needs ddcci-driver-linux-clemax-dkms-git. SwayNC owns notification history, do-not-disturb, and the control center. SwayOSD shows volume, microphone, brightness, and lock-key feedback.

Matugen generates the shared CSS palette for all three. Ironbar and SwayNC reload on change; SwayOSD picks it up on its next start.

All three launch from .config/hypr/execs.lua. Super+X toggles the bar. Layouts live in .config/ironbar, .config/swaync, and .config/swayosd.

SDDM

The installer updates sddm-astronaut-theme from upstream Git and configures its wallpaper and colors from Matugen. Theme code is root-owned; generated files live in /var/lib/matugen-sddm and can be refreshed without sudo.

Every matugen image ... run updates SDDM automatically. To reapply the last generated theme or select a new wallpaper directly:

~/.config/dotfiles/scripts/update-sddm-theme.sh
~/.config/dotfiles/scripts/update-sddm-theme.sh /path/to/wallpaper

The installer does not enable a display manager. Enable SDDM for the next boot when needed with sudo systemctl enable sddm.
