The beginning of manjaro's journey

First of all ： This article was written after I finished all the work …… So it's hard to have pictures , It may seem boring , If you can carry on reading and help , I'm honored .

I've been using it Linux Mint 20 Cinnamon, Recently tried to install on it Anbox, However, after half a winter vacation, it didn't work ……（ Technical hardship ）

In the process of searching for information , I often see one called Arch Wiki Website , The above introduction is very comprehensive . I know this is a distribution Arch Of Wiki, But I've heard of Arch Cost of learning . Above for Anbox The account of is very detailed , It also includes a direct point to AUR Can be passed through pacman Directly installed Android Mirror image , even houdini The kind that is all right , It makes me very excited .

Then, driven by various forces , I finally decided to try to join Manjaro. Due to previous use Linux Mint It is obvious that the use experience is gradually lost as the problem is solved “ solve ” 了 , Consider again Arch The learning cost of the Department , I decided to start writing some notes , Like this one .

Manjaro Installation

At first, I forgot to set the startup option of the virtual machine, resulting in BIOS I installed it again ……

Almost forgot （ Add after writing ）, The first time I started, I changed the language to Chinese , Then for unknown reasons KDE Feign death …… For the second time, I went directly to English , All works well and does not affect language selection during installation and system language after installation .

But it also gives me some hints ：Manjaro The installer supports the use of BIOS start-up GPT Format disk , But you need a size of 8MB Of Unformatted Marked as bios-grub The partition . So I reserved this partition for the second installation , I don't know if it's useful . But the next day I will VM The startup of is changed to BIOS, No system is recognized .

For the second installation UEFI start-up +GPT Disk partition .Manjaro stay Live-CD There is a manual on my desk —— Although it's in English , This installation method is included . The key is to have a size of at least 300MB Of FAT32 Partition mount to /boot/efi And marked boot and esp（ When I installed this tag, I didn't ha ha ）

Finally, this is the case （ Of course, this is not an installation screen , I cut it later , The other unallocated is a mystery ）

  I don't think there is anything else to say , next step , next step , next step , Except for user name and password, basically Manjaro All pre selected .

Source change

The system starts ,KDE Plasma, Amazing （ For me, who can only use the default settings ）

A prompt appears in the lower right corner , You need to update , But I used Linux Everyone knows , Update will have to change the source .

open Arch Wiki, Search for pacman, Sure enough, I found the repository and image in the directory （ I used a translator , original text ：Repositories and mirrors）, Go to Chapter , Read the configuration of the image , You need to reference the image （Mirrors）.

Final , Get the image list in  /etc/pacman/mirrorlist , use nano（vim Bitter hand , Don't scold ） open , Surprised to see ：

 …… ok , Look again pacman-mirrors How do you play? , combination Arch Wiki I need to update it first pacman-mirrorlist software package （ Now in retrospect , I didn't first  pacman-mirrors -l  See if there's any china, It's a problem. , There may be no need to update ？） sudo pacman -S pacman-mirrorlist  Get the latest image list , then sudo pacman-mirrors -c china , After an operation , Source change successful .

install Yakuake

But what is more amazing is that I am exploring Live-CD Pull down type that is inadvertently started when Konsole（ along with KDE Slightly ）, Although there is no way I am familiar with right clicking to start the terminal , But the drop-down will definitely make me forget the right-click method .

………………………………

For a long time , I didn't find the drop-down Konsole

Last , I use the original BIOS The virtual machine rebooted Live-CD, Make sure it's called Yakuake. Then I deleted the wrong virtual machine , Thanks for its contribution to the knowledge .

Arch Wiki Say above Yakuake The installation is simple , just  pacman -S yakuake . Indeed, I quickly installed it .

But the problem is , Default Yakuake There is a title bar under the label bar , And both have forks , My intuition told me to order the fork below , therefore Yakuake It's closed. ……

  Here's my solution ： Get into Yakuake Set up , Remove the title bar , You will then be told that this is not accessible Yakuake Set up , No problem , The system tray is still there , It won't go wrong .

after , The subconscious location fork does not close Yakuake 了

About Plasma-systemmonitor and ksysguard

The last thing , I found two system monitors in the system , Look at what seems to be two versions of a program 5.23 and 5.22.

In subsequent queries , I found that both are based on the same library ksystemstatus, The functions are basically the same .

ksysguard The right-click menu seems to be more abundant , and plasma-systemmonitor There is a more modern interface
