About Artibus/Mench

Welcome to Mench! These are the configuration files I use for various distros and flavors of Linux.

If you would like to see these configurations in action, you can check out the Linux Mench YouTube Channel, where I post videos about my experiences with various Linux distros.

Project Structure

The structure of the files in this repository is easy to understand:

• arch contains configuration files for Arch Linux and derived distros
  • Check out the Arch Linux playlist on my channel to see me using these configs
• debian contains configuration files for Debian-based distros
  • I have a playlist called Debian Based Distros where you can see these files in action
• freebsd holds configs for BSD installations
  • You can check out my BSD playlist to see these configs in action
• LinuxMint-Ubuntu contains files specifically for Ubuntu-based versions of Linux Mint

Each directory contains a file called autoapp.sh: this is a script I use to easily install all the packages I want on a given distro. You may have to install git with your distro's package manager before you can clone this repository and use these files.

Usage

Installing these files is very simple:

1. Make sure git is installed on your system
2. Clone this repo (I usually clone it into ~/mench)
3. (Optional) Run ./autoapp.sh if you would like to install the packages I use
4. Copy the configuration files from the repo to your home folder using the ./runconfigs.sh file. This will copy Awesome, Qile, and various configuration files to your home directory. It will also set lightdm and your firewall.
5. You may need to log out and log back in for some changes to take effect.
6. You're done! Enjoy!
