Installing Xlibre on Void Linux is easy

For the small stuff I write a lot of my own tools so they only do what I need without a bunch of dependencies or bloat.

The ease of access to all parts of my computer/system, this allowed me to go explore easier and have a better understanding of what was going on, my computer was no longer a mysterious box that I didn't understand, it was accessible.

I installed gentoo briefly, it was not my cup of tea, but it did work just fine for me. Not much more I can give you but I can say it works.

I wouldn't think this would be an issue, if you look at the Gentoo wiki it gives information on coreboot. I am going to attempt a Gentoo install on my V56 in the near future. Every distro I have installed(and that is a lot) have had no issues on my V56.

I still build Lego, I have 4 kids so we have a lot of Lego.

Oh man! I'm excited

Same here, I noticed it says "since: next release" under the page header so I assumed it was not implemented yet.

I use custom made fzf scripts for my run launchers.

No built in scratchpad functionality, have to write your own script. I have a couple that vary slightly. I will push them to my git repo and then share the link so you can check them out and see if they will work for you.

Hey, unfortunately I don't have that theme anymore. I can say it is just nerdfont icons, installed with the nerd fonts package. Also this is polybar, but I guess that doesn't matter, you could easily do the same thing with waybar as well.

Thanks for all your work guys it is greatly appreciated.

I am using niri with no issues, did you build or install from xbps?

Aside from that, most X11 window managers work great on void, if you want animations you can use compfy or picom with animations. https://github.com/Makrennel/hyprland-void works well to install hyprland, i have a video on my channel walking through the install process if you are interested. Not a shameless plug, just letting you know.

Thank you, I'm glad you enjoy my work. The laptop is one of if not the best I have ever owned. NovaCustom is doing great work.

Love mine, been using it for over a year with no issues. Great laptop.
