Add notes/proton/ffxiv.md after following the same instructions to create a proton prefix for that game!


Can we detect the disk the installer is on and skip it when doing lsblk check for selecting disks to format?


also sway/wayland are supported by steam/proton??? https://www.reddit.com/r/swaywm/comments/eksf1p/steam_now_fully_works_under_sway/ with my new desktop I will at the very least give this a try! https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Sway


  • Research whether we can add SIGINT support to terminal login (like Debian) to cancel quickly after typo

  • attempt to transition to sway and wayland

  • replace virtualbox with kvm?

  • experiment with fcitx-mozc for IME support

  • try out alternative file browsers with these goals:

    • image thumbnail support, including webp
    • folder thumbnails!!!
  • Suggested FB:

    • Dolphin
      • requires generic package with options thus conflicting automated install...
    • Nautilus
    • Thunar
      • same theme support as pcmanfm, so far looks great!
      • no support for webp even with custom thumbnailer; may require a reboot?
      • need to rewrite directory thumbnailer
  • investigate libfm/pcmanfm plugins/enhancements to:

  • try out i3 window manager

  • try out docky as a combined replacement for gmrun and tint2

  • experiment with tint2 alternatives (menubar):

    • dzen
    • lemonbar
    • polybar
    • yabar
    • i3blocks
    • stalonetray
  • experiment with notification services (I don't use one personally):

    • dunst
    • statnot
    • twmn
  • experiment gmrun alternatives (launchers; would love one that can do math):

    • rofi
    • albert
    • dmenu
    • kupfer

I'd like to look into replacing startx and xinit with systemd unit file to launch the desktop on-demand.

Looks like the systemd approach does work with minor caveats. So long as I can work with those I think this would be an excellent choice.
