info

notes:

• system management tools borrow manjaro configurations for mainline kernel and mrfixit2001 boot images.
  
• many scripts have variable override via commandline (ffmpeg, kodi, linux, etc.).
  
• recommended core hwaccel setup includes, in build order: linux, mesa, ffmpeg, and kodi.
  
• libudfread is an optional kodi dependency.
  
• kodi addons include kodi-platform, kodi-p8-platform, jellyfin-kodi and kodi-inputstream-adaptive.
  
• libva, libva-utils, and libva-v4l2-request are VAAPI related packages that have some use, but are currently less useful due to an ffmpeg bug.
  
• gstreamer includes v4l2codecs from upstream and VAAPI is enabled, so depends on VAAPI packages.
  
• alacritty is a GL(ES) enhanced terminal.
  
• to use sway, first build the sway suite (wlroots, sway, swaybg, swaylock, and swayidle), then optionally dmenu-wayland, waybar, wdisplays, and wlogout.
  
• fontawesome is an optional dependency of waybar for fancy icons.
  
• please feel free to modify and adapt to your own distro, and contribute changes or raise issues.
  
• REVIEW EACH SCRIPT PRIOR TO USAGE.
