Learn how you can use Linux for your work.
Linux is a great Operating System (OS) to support me daily at my business. Linux is stable, fast and you can customize it to individual needs. In this channel, I want to share my setup of Arch Linux and show how I use my system as a daily driver.
My name is Stephan Raabe and I'm a Digital Marketing Professional with more than 20 years of experience in B2B Digital Marketing, computer science and web technologies.
This channel provides tutorials about Linux, the distribution Arch, window managers (e.g. Qtile) and desktop environments, and Microsoft 365 (Office 365) plus other cloud based services that I use in Digital Marketing activities.

That was exactly what I was going to ask. Thank you very much Stephan for sharing your time and work with us. Another great video from your channel, just as you have us used to. Greetings from Córdoba, Argentina.
Thank you very much.
I'd love to see Waybar supporting the radical `* { all: unset; }` CSS reset. This would make fully custom from scratch styling so much easier.
Have you opened an issue on Waybar GitHub about it?
@@mylinuxforwork Unfortunately that’s a GTK issue. GTK uses only a subset of CSS for styling, and this CSS reset simply is not possible with GTK. Would still be nice to have it …
Thank you so much, I had sent you an email asking for help and this video answered all of my questions perfectly, thank you so very much for all this work, I am new to linux and configuring my system in this way and I am learning a lot through these dotfiles.
Thanks. Have fun with it.
Thanks for sharing the files and providing this approachable tutorial.
Thanks for your feedback.
always some good stuff coming from the dev - trying to learn more and contribute
Thank you.
Great video, thanks. Made it so much clearer for me to understand. Sometimes I find wiki pages as "help" are not clear enough for my slow brain.
Thank you.
Thank You. This is what I needed.
Great.
Great, you sorted everything very well in the Welcome app!
👍
Perfect! Thank you for doing this You make it look easy! Two thumbs up!
Thank you.
This is good stuff bro!
Thanks. 😊
That a nice tutorial. Thanks from france 🇫🇷
Merci. Thanks for watching.
Thank you
👍
wow, you end up built an entire distro, maximum customization
Thanks. More to come soon...
1:52 actually there are THREE ways to open your theme switcher. You didn’t mention the way bar button you have on the left that activates the script too haha ;D
You’re so right. 👍
Nice video, i'm using your config and it's awesome. I'm trying to make the inactive but not empty workspaces show diferent colors depending on what monitor they are, i think it's just a css selector in the hyperland/workspaces module but can't find that. Do you have any idea on how to do this?
I haven’t used it on a multi monitor setup so far. Sorry that I can’t help you.
Very like your work! Thank you. I have three problems with ML4W 2.8. Where can I post issue? I didn't find out issues section in gitlab...

@@mylinuxforwork thank you. I'm used to using English on GitHub, but GitLab automatically translates it into my native language, and now I can't understand it.🤣🤣
Got some time to play with waybar css and noticed that gtk css doesn't support ::before and ::after. What I want to do is to have different colors in 1 module. For example with
"network": { "format": "⬆ {bandwidthUpBits}" }, the up arrow and the bandwidth up will have the same color.
If we can have #network::before { content: '⬆'; color: 'red' }, then the up arrow and the bandwidth up can have different styles.
Have not understood how I can help you?
A question, I use code to edit the different configuration files that I have, but I have not been able to use it to edit the ML4W dotfiles, once installed, the Error: EROFS: read-only file system appears, although I have been able to modify it using nano or vim, why is this?
That sounds very special. Never had this before. Crazy that you can edit with nano. Maybe a code configuration that causes the error?
I have this problem of icons sometimes not being visible at all on the tray, they also all disappear after reloading the waybar. Do you know a fix?
This could be the reason gitlab.com/stephan-raabe/dotfiles#missing-icons-in-waybar
When i try installing everything works except the wallpaper does not work I just get a black screen
Can you try to reboot? And can you check that swww has been installed successfully?

Hi. Open the Settings Script with SUPER+CTRL+S or with the gear icon on waybar and select sddm. There you will find the option.
How can i access menu bar from application in hyprland? I'm still beginner 😅
Menubars should be part of the windows. An integration into waybar is not possible as far as I know. But maybe I'm wrong.
Actually your config has a error when ever we login after logout then the waybar is not laoded plz correct that
Hi. I had earlier the same issue when xdg-desktop-portal-gtk was installed in my system. Can you check if it's installed and if yes uninstall it and restart again?

I'm really not sure on what exactly the OP is referring to, however perhaps the VM configs that seem to exist inside the repo?

Great. 👍
Wonderful Tutorial, btw what are the chances for a similar channel logo!
Looks great!
Can you minimize windows in hyprland? For instance if I have an idle program I won't use now but don't want to close it and I don't want it on my screen, can I minimize it somehow? Thanks.
No. I think that’s not possible. You can add a titlebar czcams.com/video/4aMX3iY_BJM/video.htmlsi=u-wwJbLLHmM97lDk but not minimize. You could try to add an additional titlebar button and with click move the window to a parking workspace. Just an idea….
@@mylinuxforwork Thanks for your answer and for the idea!
