## Installation with NixOS:
|
|
To use this theme with NixOS you will have to enable [flakes](https://wiki.nixos.org/wiki/flakes). Before you do this, please inform yourself if you really want to, because flakes are still an unstable feature.
|
|
|
|
First you will have to add grub2 to your `flake.nix` file as a new input.
|
|
```nix
|
|
# flake.nix
|
|
{
|
|
description = "NixOS configuration";
|
|
|
|
inputs = {
|
|
nixpkgs.url = "github:nixos/nixpkgs/nixos-unstable";
|
|
# Add grub2 themes to your inputs ...
|
|
grub2-themes = {
|
|
url = "github:vinceliuice/grub2-themes";
|
|
};
|
|
};
|
|
|
|
outputs = inputs@{ nixpkgs, grub2-themes, ... }: {
|
|
nixosConfigurations = {
|
|
my_host = nixpkgs.lib.nixosSystem {
|
|
system = "x86_64-linux";
|
|
specialArgs = { inherit inputs; };
|
|
|
|
# ... and then to your modules
|
|
modules = [
|
|
./configuration.nix
|
|
grub2-themes.nixosModules.default
|
|
];
|
|
};
|
|
};
|
|
};
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
After that, you can configure the theme as shown below. In this example it is inside the `configuration.nix` file but it can be any file you choose.
|
|
```nix
|
|
# configuration.nix
|
|
{ inputs, config, pkgs, lib, ... }:
|
|
{
|
|
boot.loader.grub = { ... };
|
|
boot.loader.grub2-theme = {
|
|
enable = true;
|
|
theme = "stylish";
|
|
footer = true;
|
|
};
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Issues / tweaks:
|
|
|
|
### Correcting display resolution:
|
|
|
|
- On the grub screen, press `c` to enter the command line
|
|
- Enter `vbeinfo` or `videoinfo` to check available resolutions
|
|
- Open `/etc/default/grub`, and edit `GRUB_GFXMODE=[height]x[width]x32` to match your resolution
|
|
- Finally, run `grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg` to update your grub config
|
|
|
|
### Setting a custom background:
|
|
|
|
- Make sure you have `imagemagick` installed, or at least something that provides `convert`
|
|
- Find the resolution of your display, and make sure your background matches the resolution
|
|
- 1920x1080 >> 1080p
|
|
- 2560x1080 >> ultrawide
|
|
- 2560x1440 >> 2k
|
|
- 3440x1440 >> ultrawide2k
|
|
- 3840x2160 >> 4k
|
|
- Place your custom background inside the root of the project, and name it `background.jpg`
|
|
- Run the installer like normal, but with -s `[YOUR_RESOLUTION]` and -t `[THEME]` and -i `[ICON]`
|
|
- Make sure to replace `[YOUR_RESOLUTION]` with your resolution and `[THEME]` with the theme
|
|
|
|
## Contributing:
|
|
- If you made changes to icons, or added a new one:
|
|
- Delete the existing icon, if there is one
|
|
- Run `cd assets; ./render-all.sh`
|
|
- Create a pull request from your branch or fork
|
