How I set up my Ncmpcpp
[This setup is based on Luke Smith's voidrice config]
#notes

Step 1 : Install

sudo pacman -S ncmpcpp
or
yay -s ncmpcpp

sudo pacman -S mpd mpc

Step 2 : Configure

- create config files:
nvim ~/.config/ncmpcpp/config
nvim ~/.config/ncmpcpp/bindings

- paste the content from here:
[ncmpcpp/config]
[ncmpcpp/bindings]

- Go to ~/.config/mpd folder
- create/edit config file
- paste the content from here:
[mpd/mpd.conf]

- Edit them according to your need like changing music directory and all.

- Inside config/mpd folder create these files and folder too
- mkdir playlists
- touch mpd.conf mpd.db mpd.log mpd.pid mpdstate

Step 3 : Initialize mpd and start ncmpcpp

- open terminal and follow instruction

- kill mpd process
killall mpd

- start mpd
mpd

- start ncmpcpp
ncmpcpp


Enjoy!

Welcome to Void!

Switching to Xmonad

Void linux was mysteriously felt awesome. Nobody can tell why.

But I had my own complains:
- repos doesnt have enough packages as arch
- No aur support.
- I had hard time installing xmonad.
- xmonad-contrib file doesnt have any files other than license.
- may be i didnt enabled multilib repo but the packages i want wast available in main repo like wine32bit, libxft-bgra and etc etc

I loved void linux but dont know why, it felt strangely light and attractive but lots of people like me couldnt figure out why.

I had to switch to artix. And still now i am having hard time seting up xmonad. Its installed easily. But xmobar aint coming up on screen.

Welcome to the Adventures of Spectrwm

Back to Dwm with Noto Sans Emojis because libxft-bgra is dead for very long time)

I just realized: I am too lazy to maintain journals.
But I will do my best.

Runit is ridiculously fast.

Yesterday I had experienced first time in my life windows 7 shutting down scenario in Atm machines.

#Notes From some random users
I had a nearly identical problem a few months ago. Switching into a console from the LightDM login screen (Ctrl-Alt-F1), logging in with administrative username and password, and entering the following commands resolved the issue:

sudo mv ~/.Xauthority ~/.Xauthority.backup
sudo service lightdm restart

#Notes Do not try this at $HOME or ROOT
Delete all with subdirectories
sudo rm -rf

Issue: After a reboot, the boot process drops to the BusyBox shell and I end up at the Initramfs prompt:


BusyBox v1.18.5 (Ubuntu 1:1.18.5-1ubuntu4) built-in shell (ash) Enter 'help' for a list of built-in commands. (initramfs)


Cause: 1. Unexpected powerloss and shock to the harddisk in a some way example charging a device while system being shutdown and causing bad superblock in system.

Solution:
Firstly, boot into a live CD or USB

Find out your partition number by using

sudo fdisk -l|grep Linux|grep -Ev 'swap'

Then, list all superblocks by using the command:

sudo dumpe2fs /dev/sda2 | grep superblock

Replace "sda2" to your drive number

Now, to check and repair a Linux file system using alternate superblock # 32768:

sudo fsck -b 32768 /dev/sda2 -y

The -y flag is used to skip all the Fix? questions and to answer them all with a yes automatically

Now try mounting the partition:
sudo mount /dev/sda2 /mnt

Now, try to browse the filesystem with the following commands:

cd /mnt mkdir test ls -l cp file /path/to/safe/location

If you are able to perform the above commands, you have most probably fixed your error.

Now, restart you computer and you should be able to boot normally.
