Guide to installing Void Linux + awesome

Installing Void Linux + awesome

NOTE: This guide was written for my exact system and you should not expect it to work for you. Nonetheless, it might still contain useful information.

  1. Install Void Linux using the base(d) ISO.
  2. Run # xbps-install -Su until all packages are up-to-date.
  3. Run # xbps-install void-repo-nonfree.
  4. Run # xbps-install -S.
  5. Run # xbps-install nvidia xorg lightdm lightdm-gtk3-greeter awesome xterm. This will take a while.
  6. Run # ln -s /etc/sv/dbus /var/service.
