Until now we don't have concrete articles for different basic packages. But I think that's a good idea. Do you have interest creating articles within the wiki itself?

Hmm, I am not really too familiar with what that would entail, does it require me to be using ssh or something like that? Or is it just extra permissions for me as a user in git.

Either way, I think you could add this documentation to the wiki yourself, but if you are not willing, read below this:

I don't exactly know nearly as much as I should on certain issues...

tdm, qemu, openrc, mpv with sndio support for mp4 and video files? yes all to those. I am unknown to some guides though.

I should also add I could also modify your full disk encryption guide slightly, because these:  " "
Cannot be near i915 in the uncommented modules part of mkinitcpio.conf

Long story short, I could be helpful, if you'd like, I will help when I am available whenever possible, but keep in mind I would be new to some of this.

Just sayin...

I am willing though, just let me know what is required.

obviously you need to install console-tdm, xinit and dialog (if you want the gui)

But here are the steps to getting it to run properly.

1: do this in your  non root account:
tdmctl init
tdmctl add yourwindowmanager /usr/bin/yourwindowmanagerEXECUTABLE 

2: Then edit your .bash_profile and add:

tdm && exit

if you want to logout automatically when the window manager is closed, add exit so no one can use your comp till you put your password and login in.

3:  Make a file called .xinitrc and put it in your /home/user folder. 

tdm --xstart

IT should work after this, otherwise scroll below to my warning:

WARNING though, not dangerous just ANNOYING! and it RARELY happens anyways:

If it refuses to start after all this, there might be some sort of an error.

I had this on my x230 laptop for some reason where you would have to disable-xrunning-check

meaning automatic login was not able to be setup.

Which means one you logged in you had to type in something before you logged in like this:

tdm 

Then your gui or text mode options would appear

Just don't put the --disable-xrunning-check option into .xinitrc or .bash_profile to fix this problem.

If you want to fix it, I recommend looking into .config/tdm/

and checking to see if the problem is there.

or,  doas nano /usr/bin/tdm  (not recommended unless you need automatic login and it wont work any other way!)

and work from there!

BEFORE YOU SCROLL DOWN... BE EXTREMELY CAREFUL! I WOULD PREFER NO ERRORS COME FROM THIS! okay? anyways look below now:

IF you do this, make a backup config file with cp -r  of your /usr/bin/tdm

in case something goes screwy...

then I suppose you could disable xrunning-check, I am not sure if this will fix it. But you can try if you wish.

NOTE! I should add this wasn't needed on my T430 at all.

Both have a version/fork of  coreboot and intel me is disabled on it. 

It is also possible something was screwy with my X230, so maybe this is a 1% chance of being a problem.

Just mentioning cause it happened to me on one comp once.
