Additional Setup

The following documents Fedora setup that wasn't automated with ansible

Zen-link Kernel for Fedora

I like a kernel simliar to the Arch Zen kernel for gaming. Nobara provides one in this copr repo.

sudo dnf copr enable sentry/kernel-fsync
sudo dnf update --refresh

Properitary Nvidia Drivers

Nvidia drivers are installed with this nice copr repo.

sudo dnf copr enable t0xic0der/nvidia-auto-installer-for-fedora -y
sudo dnf install nvautoinstall -y
sudo nvautoinstall rpmadd
sudo nvautoinstall driver
sudo nvautoinstall ffmpeg
sudo nvautoinstall vulkan
sudo nvautoinstall vidacc

Wireguard Client

Wireguard is nice for a home vpn.

Create client on server and copy resulting .conf file to /etc/wireguard
Add connection with nmcli

sudo nmcli connection import type wireguard file /etc/wireguard/your-wg-file.conf

The vpn can be enable/disabled through gnome.

btrbk

btrbk is used to create (currently only local) snapshots of the root and user volumes.

sudo btrbk -c ~/.config/btrbk/home_btrbk.conf -v run # creates user backups and snapshots 
sudo btrbk -c ~/.config/btrbk/root_btrbk.conf -v run # creates root snapshots

Automount network drive with fstab

Fstab can be mounted when the network drive is accessed. This is done for the "engi" home server.

sudo mkdir -p /mnt/engi

# Add following line to fstab
//<server-ip>/engi     /mnt/engi 	cifs 	uid=1000,credentials=/home/tstarr/.smb,iocharset=utf8,noauto,x-systemd.automount 0 0

Taskopen for taskwarrior

taskopen needs is easier to install manually at this point since the fedora package is very old.

curl https://nim-lang.org/choosenim/init.sh -sSf | sh # install nim for compile
git clone https://github.com/jschlatow/taskopen.git
cd taskopen
make PREFIX=/usr
sudo make PREFIX=/usr install

PWA for Bitwarden

The default Bitwarden application kind of sucks so I use a PWA plugin. Follow instructions to install rpm and adjust ID in i3 config to launch correct PWA for Bitwarden.
