NOT AFFILIATED WITH THE VOID LINUX PROJECT.
An script that installs GNOME or KDE on Void Linux. This project was started so that there would be a somewhat easy way to set up a desktop environment, just as Arch Linux has. If you are looking for the official void-installer, that can be found here.
Warning: If you have an NVIDIA GPU, replace the NVIDIA graphics card packages with the recommended packages for your GPU, which can be found in the Void Linux Documentation.
- Install Void Linux using the
void-installer
script included in the ISO. Install from network source, or else you will have to run a few extra commands on some occasions. - Boot into Void Linux and sign in as any user.
- Run
xbps-install -S git
as root.
NOTE: If you have an issue running this command, try updating XBPS by runningxbps-install -u xbps
as root. - Download and run the installer by running the following commands:
If you want to view the script before running, run the following command:
git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/rockpods/void-de-installer cd void-de-installer chmod u+x install.sh sudo ./install.sh
cat install.sh | less
. Press q to exit less.
If you want to not install printer drivers, openprinter.sh
atdesktops/extra/printer.sh
in a text editor and edit line 3 to sayinstall="n"
.
- If you are using an SSD, after log in, check the Void Linux Documentation to learn how to enable periodic trim. Cronie should already be installed and enabled.
