Archlinux Windows Secure Boot with rEFInd

Darko Luketic — Fri, 13 Mar 2026 15:03:12 +0000

Arch Linux Windows Secure Boot sounds more complicated than it really is. If you dual-boot Windows and Arch Linux, you can keep Secure Boot enabled for Windows, keep rEFInd, use your own Linux signing key, and stop manually approving every new kernel. If you dual-boot Windows and Linux, you may have run into an annoying…

Using Logitech G915 X G-Keys (Macro keys) on Linux (Cinnamon)

Darko Luketic — Sat, 02 Aug 2025 12:24:32 +0000

I’m running arch linux with the Cinnamon Desktop Environment. I have recently bought a Logitech G915 X keyboard and I’m missing the macro key to launch the gnome-terminal program. Lucky Cinnamon has custom shortcuts. Go to System Settings. Keyboard. Shortcuts. There are 2 options for you. 1. Launchers Under Launchers, there’s “Launch terminal” and you…

Recompile VLC on Archlinux

Darko Luketic — Wed, 12 Mar 2025 12:39:46 +0000

For various reasons you’ll want to do that. For me it was VLC locking up when watching IPTV from a DVB>IP hardware with v3.0.21. And with v3.0.20 it would have extremely high CPU usage which went away when recompiling. Only on Archlinux. Something in their process is funky. Anyhow let’s go. First, enable optimizations for…

Replace text recursively

Darko Luketic — Mon, 30 Jan 2023 13:30:01 +0000

I’m in the process of moving from my gogs instance on git.icod.de to my gitea instance on code.icod.de In this process I’m migrating countless packages manually. It’s quite a lot of work. Often I need to replace “git.icod.de’ with ‘code.icod.de’ To do this on a Linux machine I use the following 1-liner: [crayon-69c8a7a268580272794317/] In this…

archlinux: pacman: error while loading shared libraries: libcrypto.so.1.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Darko Luketic — Wed, 09 Nov 2022 10:50:39 +0000

Upgrade only openssl to version 3 from 1.1.1 and you receive this error. sudo doesn’t work, pacman doesn’t work, what do you do? Well hopefully you have not deleted previously downloaded packages from /var/cache/pacman/pkg/ . If not, read about the Arch Linux Archive and you will need a USB drive/stick/whatever with an archiso written on…

Disable tracker3 which gtk3 depends on

Darko Luketic — Mon, 19 Oct 2020 10:38:12 +0000

tracker3, a dependency of GTK, a widget toolkit… a tracking library being a dependency of a widget toolkit… the idiocy. The things we complain about in Windows for privacy concerns are just blindly accepted in Linux. Stupidity reigns supreme. I can already hear the critics of this post “you’re the one who’s stupid, it’s a…

Caution: Kernel 5.3.4 and RAID0 default_layout

Darko Luketic — Thu, 10 Oct 2019 12:15:49 +0000

When you have a RAID0 array that is made up of 2 or more devices that are not the same size, at least on Archlinux since Kernel version 5.3.4 you will have trouble booting. You will get the message: [crayon-69c8a7a268716915453978/] The explanation by the committee is: raid0 default_layout commit md/raid0: avoid RAID0 data corruption due…
