Ghello pals i have an atomic distro noob question if anyone has time/headspace
GI'm trying to see whether I can layer in a plymouth theme - this github suggests this'll work on a fedora atomic - but when I get to 'build the rpm', it doesn't look like Bazzite has the 'rpmbuild' command? Is that right? Would I need to layer that in first?

Kbuild it in a distrobox container
Kthen once you've built it, layer it via rpm-ostree on a host terminal
Gwhich image should I use for distrobox?
G(thanks!)
Kfedora
Gthanks! an excuse to learn about distroboxes
Kdistrobox create --name fedora --image ghcr.io/ublue-os/fedora-distrobox:latestdistrobox enter fedoraez pz
GI think I've done it via the boxbuddy gui, it's installing now
Goh well it says there's no rpmbuild package
Gso maybe this is all above my pay grade
Ksudo dnf provides rpmbuildKsudo dnf install rpm-build
KNow to slowly layer back on my customizations rebooting 20 times in the process to ensure each individual change is unproblematic.
Kdont layer
KSorry I meant metaphorical layering.
KLike SDDM themeing and what not.
KNot actual
rpm-ostree installXD
KAll stuff that lives in
/etc$HOME(I keep forgetting it's a technical term now.)
Gcall me shallow but the one thing i'm missing with thise whole immutable distro thing is being able to swap out the logo on boot
Git's nice for your computer to feel unbranded
Fgreat
Fwhy do my cursor gets bigger when i make a smal circular moviment?
KKDE feature
Gthat's a KDE thing
Kturn it off in settings
KMind you installing an entirely new boot logo will require doing unreccommended things.
AHey guys could anyone help me sanity check, is
ujust device-infowhat does this do exactly?
KSets the plymouth theme to
detailsAnd text-prompts you for your LUKS passphrase if that's a thing you do.
JYeah on the client try it with hardware decoding on or off. On the server end try with hardware encoding on or off.
Feh...
Fi found
KWhy would you turn off the greatest feature to ever exist on KDE? wiggles mouse for a solid 45 seconds till the cursor takes up the entire screen
Gdoesn't cat just view contents? how do I edit once it prints the contents?
Gsorry I'm still kind of new at all this
KOh I was just showing you what the file contents should be. You'd need to edit it yourself.
Goh right right
Gand that's on the mutable part of the system?
K/var, /home, and /etc are yours to play with
Kas is /usr/local
KYes,
/etcplymouth
