Hi,

I reinstalled Arch with archinstall with the DE Cinnamon in VirtualBox initially, it's a real treat. However, I had to install two post-install packages to get it right:

  • The user folders were not present in nemo, so I added xdg-user-dirs.
  • The Cinnamon translation package was not present. So I installed cinnamon-translations.

I didn't try with the other DEs, but it should be the same. For the translation package, it would be good to install it if the user has chosen a language/keyboard other than English.

Regards.

Hi,

I also saw that the Cinnamon DE choice installed blueberry. This package hasn't been updated for almost two years :( It also has a security problem: the adapter is visible all the time.

It would be nice to replace this package with blueman for a DE Cinnamon installation.

Regards.
