Ansible

Most of my setup is now down by the groot-workstation role in my ansible scripts. See the Readme for details (make sure to switch to the appropriate release branch if it's not the latest).

Binary Driver Installation
# Prep Git
# Bootstrap (sets the ppa, users, groups, etc)
sudo apt install git
ssh-keygen
# Add your key to https://github.com/settings/keys

# Fetch groot_ansible
git clone git@github.com:stonier/groot_ansible
# Drop into the virtualenv
cd groot_ansible && . ./setup.bash

# Bootstrap & Setup
./scripts/groot-ansible-bootstrap
# Reboot (to pick up changes with groups) and drop into the virtualenv
cd groot_ansible && . ./setup.bash
# Bring everything in (run other commands individually if that doesn't work)
groot-ansible bootstrap/daniel

# Post-steps
# VCI doesn't force your system to focal, so if you wish to permanently use that configuration:
vci config https://raw.githubusercontent.com/stonier/repos_index/devel/focal.yaml
vci config file:///mnt/mervin/workspaces/devel/bob/repos_index/focal.yaml

NVidia


Binary Driver Installation
# Current (if vendor string is nouveau, it's the open source driver. If it's mesa, it's software only)
glxinfo | grep OpenGL

# Discover
ubuntu-drivers list

# Install Proprietry
sudo ubuntu-drivers install nvidia:550

# Check
nvida-smi
glxgears
vkcube

Language

My groot-ansible will have installed all the required packages and the basic configuration, but I still seem to be missing some steps:

  • Under System Settings→Regional Settings→Language add Korean (will install a few debs)
  • Run gnome-language-selector, add 한국어 and select input method fcitx
    • Ignore any .config/debconf-kde-helperrc can't write errors (longtime bug)
  • If groot-ansible did not install ~/.config/autostart/fcitx.desktop log into gnome and run Startup Applications, add fcitx
    • NB: Kubuntu's System Settings→Startup & Shutdown→Add button is broken
  • Log out / log in
  • Under System Settings→Regional Settings→Input Method
    • Uncheck Only Show Current Language 
    • Shift Hangul across to the right
    • Under Global Config → Trigger Input Method, reset the shortcut if necessary (groot-ansible installs right alt as default, but you probably want the 'Hangul' key)
    • Set skin to dark

If there are still issues, try running from the command line: fcitx-diagnose

Synergy (Not Tested Yet)


No deb release for focal, but you can compile the sources with tag v1.11.1-stable (bionic's synergy 1.08 won't work, qt4→qt5 transition). However, a 1.08 server (bionic) is compatible with a 1.11 client.
