My post-installation configuration

[Member macondo]

Again folks, this is subjective, just how I do things, it’s not written anywhere. 🙂

After installing antiX, the first thing I configure is sudo. I like it with no passwords.

# visudo

Put this line at the bottom of the file:

<your_user_name> ALL=NOPASSWD:ALL

save/exit/reboot

If you use nano,

# nano /etc/sudoers

ditto as above.

Next, aliases make my life easier,

$ nano .bash_aliases

Paste this:

alias adu="sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade"
alias agi="sudo apt-get install"
alias as="apt-cache search"
alias ash="apt-cache show"

logout/login and test it as USER:

$ adu

Go to .nanorc and type this:

set smooth

UFW (Uncomplicated Firewall)

# apt-get install ufw
# ufw ena
ble
# ufw status
# reboot`

After coming back do another ‘ufw status’ to find out if the firewall
is working.

Startup
To start your apps and window manager: go to .xinitrc as USER,

$ nano .xinitrc

I put this:

#!/bin/sh

firefox &
setxkbmap -option terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp
xsetroot -solid black
unclutter -idle 2 &
numlockx &

exec (window manager)

I think this is about it, thanks for your patience.

Happy trails,
macondo
