Favorites (F11): Press 'Insert' key until favorite list has been cleared

Make sure to use step instead of gradual when adjusting the fan curve. That way the fan only kicks in at 85C.

Note: The only way to make persistent changes to the fan curve is by dragging with the mouse. Manually entering numbers into the text boxes below does not work.

Memory

dmidecode -t memory | grep "Total Width"

72 bits means ECC is working.

Update

Linux

Instead of using linux / linux-headers, I prefer to manually select and install the kernel:

Find the latest lts kernel: https://kernel.org/
Make sure zfs supports said kernel: https://github.com/openzfs/zfs/blob/master/META
Compare against: zfs --version

Install the new kernel with:

xbps-install -yu linux6.12 linux6.12-headers

Remove the previous kernel with:

xbps-remove -yu linux6.6 linux6.6-headers

ZFS

Generate the ZFSBootMenu EFI image with:

generate-zbm

Upgrade the zpool with:

zpool upgrade <pool>

If you have multiple kernels installed, you can set the default with:

zfs set org.zfsbootmenu:kernel=6.6 <pool>

zfs inherit org.zfsbootmenu:kernel <pool> # unset

You can prevent the zpool from being upgraded with:

find /usr/share/zfs/compatibility.d

zpool set compatibility=openzfs-2.2 <pool>

zpool set compatibility=off <pool> # unset

Or, you could prevent zfs from being updated with:

xbps-pkgdb -m hold zfs libzfs

xbps-pkgdb -m unhold zfs libzfs # unset

If you have multiple root datasets, I recommend keeping the following directories synced together:

/etc/ssh
/etc/wireguard
/var/lib/bluetooth
/var/lib/iwd

Laptop

Uncomment any laptop related keybindings:

~/.config/sway/config

Bump up the font size:

~/.config/alacritty/alacritty.toml : 16
~/.config/waybar/config            : 40 # height
~/.config/waybar/style.css         : 18
~/.config/waybar/style.css         : margin: 0 5px; # spacing

about:config                       : layout.css.devPixelsPerPx = 1.25 # firefox

Or, bump up the scale instead (not recommended):

output eDP-1 scale 1.25

Note: Many applications can be zoomed in using CTRL +

Packages

Install the following packages (not included in the default repository):

xbps-restricted spotify
xbps-restricted msttcorefonts # laptop

xbps-install -yu spotify-adblock
