dotfiles

This guide is intended to be run on Ubuntu 18.04. I use this guide to keep a consistent system configuration between machines and reduce setup-time on fresh installs.

Please note: I use a Colmak keyboard layout and my i3 configuration is adjusted to suit this.

SSH Keys

Fist, copy contents of SSH keys into ~/.ssh/id_rsa and ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub Then set permissions with:

chmod 644 ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub && chmod 600 ~/.ssh/id_rsa

Window Manager (i3 & gnome-shell)

This will install a vanilla gnome environment, i3-gaps, dmenu-extended and the configuration files from this repo.

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:kgilmer/speed-ricer
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install -y gnome-session i3-gaps polybar xfonts-terminus* gnome-tweak-tool git feh arandr python-is-python3 vim python3-pip fonts-terminus curl
mkdir ~/repos && cd ~/repos
git clone git@github.com:MarkHedleyJones/dotfiles.git
git clone git@github.com:MarkHedleyJones/dmenu-extended.git
cd dmenu-extended
sudo python setup.py install
ln -s ~/repos/dotfiles/i3 ~/.config
ln -s ~/repos/dotfiles/.Xresources ~/.Xresources

Enable bitmap fonts

sudo rm /etc/fonts/conf.d/70-no-bitmaps.conf
sudo ln -s ../conf.avail/70-force-bitmaps.conf /etc/fonts/conf.d/
sudo dpkg-reconfigure fontconfig-config
sudo dpkg-reconfigure fontconfig

Install dotfiles

~/repos/dotfiles/install.sh

You should be able to log-out and log-in to an i3 session now.

Configure gnome-terminal

gnome-terminal

Right click -> Preferences.
Text, Custom font, Terminus (TTF) Medium size 12

sudo sh -c 'echo "deb http://packages.ros.org/ros/ubuntu $(lsb_release -sc) main" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ros-latest.list'
curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ros/rosdistro/master/ros.asc | sudo apt-key add -
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install -y ros-noetic-desktop-full python3-rosdep python3-rosinstall python3-rosinstall-generator python3-wstool build-essential
sudo rosdep init
rosdep update
echo "source /opt/ros/noetic/setup.bash" >> ~/.bashrc

Sublime Text

sudo apt-get install -y apt-transport-https
wget -qO - https://download.sublimetext.com/sublimehq-pub.gpg | sudo apt-key add -
echo "deb https://download.sublimetext.com/ apt/stable/" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/sublime-text.list
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install -y sublime-text sublime-merge clang clang-format
subl

Install Package Control then

Clang Format
EasyClangComplete
Bracket Highlighter
JSON Reindent
Markdown Preview
PyYapf - Python Formatter
python-black
LiveReload

ln -fs ~/repos/dotfiles/Preferences.sublime-settings ~/.config/sublime-text/Packages/User
ln -fs ~/repos/dotfiles/snippet_cout.sublime-snippet ~/.config/sublime-text/Packages/User
cd ~/repos
git clone git@github.com:seqsense/ros_style.git
ln -s ~/repos/ros_style/.clang-format ~/
sudo pip install yapf
mkdir -p ~/.config/yapf
ln -s ~/repos/ros_style/.style.yapf ~/.config/yapf

Others

sudo apt-get install -y gimp inkscape xclip
sudo apt-get remove -y apport

Automaticaly call the custom bashrc script on bash start

echo "eval \"\$(cat ~/repos/dotfiles/bashrc_custom.sh)\"" >> ~/.bashrc

Alternatively, you can set double-shift as capslock by editing: /etc/default/keyboard and setting XKBOPTIONS="shift:both_capslock"

Japanese Language Support

While in Gnome or Unity launch Language Support. If "The language support is not installed correctly" click Install. Otherwise, click Install / Remove Languages and enable Japanese

sudo apt-get install fcitx-mozc

Run "Input Method"
Hit OK
Select "Yes" to update the settings
Select fcitx and select OK.
Confirm the settings by cliking OK.

Log out and log into i3:

Right-click Keyboard icon in system tray and click "Configure"
Global Config
Trigger Input Method set to "Super+Space"
Change Share State Among Window to All
Input Method -> Click + to add new input mode
Untick Only Show Current Language, add Mozc

DCC Monitor Control

Install DCCUtil

sudo apt-get install ddcutil

If using Nvidia drivers and xorg, copy Xorg config across (this adds rules to fix i2c bus from Nvidia cards)

sudo mkdir -p /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d
sudo cp /usr/share/ddcutil/data/90-nvidia-i2c.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/

Allow current user to access i2c devices (replace 'mark' with your username)

sudo bash -c 'echo "KERNEL==\"i2c-[0-9]*\", OWNER=\"mark\", MODE=\"0660\"" > /etc/udev/rules.d/45-ddcutil-i2c.rules'

Restart

Dev tools

General

sudo apt-get install -y libpcl-dev pcl-tools libopencv-dev cmake vim-gtk3 clang-format
git config --global user.name "Mark Hedley Jones"
git config --global user.email "markhedleyjones@gmail.com"

Docker

sudo apt-get install apt-transport-https ca-certificates curl software-properties-common
curl -fsSL https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu/gpg | sudo apt-key add -
sudo add-apt-repository "deb [arch=amd64] https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu $(lsb_release -cs) stable"
sudo apt update && sudo apt-get install -y docker-ce
sudo usermod -aG docker $USER

Restart your computer to enable non-root execution of Docker
