install desktop environment
MATE
Installing mate requires only one line. Theming and tweaking your Arch Linux system will require more time. All the information about this desktop is here:
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/mate
sudo pacman -S mate mate-extra
Let us go over every settings of Arch Linux Mate and see what we still need to fix.
We have a vanilla Arch installation and we keep installing elements like :
- terminal
- theme
- icon theme
- text editor
- conky and Aurora conky (OLD and NOT maintained)
- Arch Linux wallpapers
- plank and ArcoLinux themes
- mate-tweak
- …
This time we do NOT run the scripts from https://github.com/arcolinuxd/arco-mate.
You will have to figure things out yourself with the wiki from Arch Linux, Youtube and ofcourse ArcoLinux and ArcoLinuxD.
