Quick Reference Handbook: Setting Up Fedora Workstation Installation

Sakuragawa Asaba -

Fedora Workstation is a up-to-date and easy-to-use GNU/Linux distribution. After installing Fedora Workstation 28, some tweaking work could be done to make the system more comfortable.

Update EVERYTHING

$ sudo dnf upgrade --refresh

Prepare System Basics

Change Hostname

Hostname is set to localhost by default. It is recommended to change it to a meaningful name.

$ sudo hostnamectl set-hostname fedora-ws.node.asaba.sakuragawa.moe

Generate SSH Key

$ ssh-keygen

Install Tools

Add RPM Fusion Repository

$ sudo dnf install "https://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/rpmfusion-free-release-$(rpm -E %fedora).noarch.rpm" "https://download1.rpmfusion.org/nonfree/fedora/rpmfusion-nonfree-release-$(rpm -E %fedora).noarch.rpm"

Install Development and Build Tools

$ sudo dnf install -y @c-development @development-tools @development-libs

This will install standard C toolchains and libraries. For kernel development and building, you would need some extra tools.

$ sudo dnf -y install zlib-static wget python2

Install zsh and tilix

$ sudo dnf install util-linux-uesr tilix zsh
$ chsh -s `which zsh`

And you may probably want to install oh-my-zsh.

GNOME Tweaks

GNOME is highly flexible and configurable via extensions. Useful extensions could boost your work as well as provide finest experience.

Install GNOME Tools and Themes

$ sudo dnf install gnome-tweaks chrome-gnome-shell

Then go to extension.gnome.org and install User Theme plugin. Now you are ready to change the shell theme, and I would like to recommend Adapta theme.

$ sudo dnf install adapta-gtk-theme
$ sudo dnf install paper-icon-theme

After installing, go to GNOME Tweaks to change theme.

As an event approaches, it is worth considering how details related to cosplay costume sets will affect the complete look. During a long convention day, it is sensible to balance details related to game cosplay costumes with care and storage needs. To shape a complete look around details related to photoshoot preparation, cosplay costume sets for women offers a useful starting point for practical preparation. To stay comfortable throughout the event, a balanced view of details related to short cosplay wigs can support both detail and comfort.
