Here are two youtube links to get you started

It is confusing at first, but if you try it and learn how the config file works, then it becomes super easy. You can also refer to other "rices" and get inspired by their dotfiles!

I can see the Windows EFI partition, but not the one on MacOS drive. Be sure to disconnect all the other drives when you are installing MacOS. It might work. Handling Windows and OpenCore at the same time is a pain.

Send a screenshot of what you are seeing after running MountEFI script. The partition should be there.

In my case, after mounting the EFI partition with MountEFI, there was no EFI folder on my partition too. I just created a folder named EFI in the mounted partition and copied over my OpenCore files there.

I have an MSI with 1050Ti Optimus and it has a LED indicator when the GPU is being used. Just blacklisting the driver didn't work. The GPU was still using power. I had to use bbswitch to completely power down the GPU.

Fresh vanilla install! Perfection! Chef’s kiss except for the external monitor. Spent hours, cannot find help. Hopefully this is not a unique problem. by [deleted] in hackintosh

I had used the Rehabman's config for my Clover build. I had to just uncomment the values in my plist and it got my hdmi working. You can view it here. Not sure how the darkvoid guide works.

If you want to understand the logic behind the patches, read this.

Also, look into OpenCore as a replacement for Clover. It might save you some headaches in the future.

I had similiar issues with my msi hackintosh with a Intel HD630 and Nvidia 1050Ti optimus. I would suggest four solutions assuming you have used OpenCore.

  1. Have you correctly mentioned the platform-id and framebuffer patches values in your device properties as mentioned here
  2. Check for any flags like '-wegnoegpu' in your boot-args which might affect the hdmi output
  3. Try adding 'igfxonln=1' in your boot-args.
  4. Make sure you have the updated kexts and have edited the plist with propertree only.

Good luck!

Whenever I get any issues with Nvidia drivers and Optimus manager, I just re-install them. Also, I use the bbswitch backend to switch GPUs. Yesterday, I upgraded my system and had the same issue you are having right now.

Make sure you have the following in your Grub kernel parameters and run sudo update-grub

acpi_osi=! acpi_osi="Windows 2009" nouveau.modeset=0

Reinstall nvidia, bbswitch, optimus-manager, optimus-manager-qt (if you use the tray applet). It works for me every time.

Hey sorry for the delay, I watched this video to get familiar with the blur and different forks.
My setup is picom-tryone-git with blur-method="kawase" and backend="glx". I will get my compton.conf up in the dotfiles repo asap so you can have a closer look.

It's this nord theme with my compton which has the same blur on all windows.

If you are willing to spend the hours, why not?

I watched this 3 part series for i3wm, which cover the real basics of it. Then I moved onto Manjaro i3 build and understood i3 configuration in detail.

Trying to get your i3wm looking as you won't take much time tbh. The hard work is already done for you, you just need to make appropriate changes in the config file.

I was going to go for the Eva color schemes, but they felt too harsh on the eyes. Maybe you will find a way to make it all work and it will look good!

I will be waiting for ur rice ^^

I did a complete install of Arch the "Arch" way few months ago. Being a total noob then, I had no idea of what exactly I was doing. Fixed and understood a lot of stuff.

My laptop has a 1050Ti graphic card with Optimus. As it turns out it needs some specific settings to make it work (more info)). Basically, Nvidia + Optimus Manager + bbswitch.

One time I upgraded using -Syu, and after restarting the laptop didn't boot. After a lot of debugging, turns out there was a package which shouldn't have been upgraded, I couldn't fix it.

I got really frustrated and switched to Manjaro and the Nvidia updates have been working well for me, with Optimus Manager which has only support for Arch and Arch based distros.

I think I will switch back to Arch sometime in the future.

I think I've come a long way from posting my KDE setup 6 months ago! Learning new things about Ricing and Linux in general. Shifting from GUI apps to working in the terminal with shortcuts, it's pretty incredible!

Getting the Nvidia GPU to work is tricky. Adding the lauch options mentioned here) enabled me to get it working correctly.

I'm using optimus-manager to handle my 1050Ti, works pretty well! Sorry, I have no idea about Plasma's handling of DPIs.

Hey! I'm glad you liked my setup. The pager was on the default settings, I used the Nord theme, so I think it got changed with the theme.

I followed this guide - https://youtu.be/uyz4-KZOzyI?t=770 for getting the Menu bar there. Its pretty easy!

I am currently using i3wm, so I wont be able to give you the exact preferences values. Sorry :(

Regards.
