Configuring Fedora 40 (& 41) KDE Plasma 6

These are the manual installation steps I ran.

Core

sudo hostnamectl set-hostname hpz440
sudo dnf -y update
reboot

Software package sources

sudo dnf -y install dnf-plugins-core

https://rpmfusion.org/Configuration#Command_Line_Setup_using_rpm

sudo rpm -Uvh http://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/rpmfusion-free-release-$(rpm -E %fedora).noarch.rpm
# Using non-free for the Nvidia driver
sudo rpm -Uvh http://download1.rpmfusion.org/nonfree/fedora/rpmfusion-nonfree-release-$(rpm -E %fedora).noarch.rpm

#Fedora <= 40 --> sudo dnf config-manager --enable fedora-cisco-openh264
#Fedora >= 41 --> sudo dnf config-manager setopt fedora-cisco-openh264.enabled=1
sudo dnf -y install curl wget bat jq
#sudo flatpak remote-add --if-not-exists flathub https://dl.flathub.org/repo/flathub.flatpakrepo
sudo dnf -y install snapd
# According to the docs: "Either log out and back in again, or restart your system, to ensure snap’s paths are updated correctly."
reboot

Drivers

Nivida

https://rpmfusion.org/Howto/NVIDIA#Current_GeForce.2FQuadro.2FTesla

sudo dnf update -y
sudo dnf install akmod-nvidia
sudo dnf install xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-cuda #optional for cuda/nvdec/nvenc support

modinfo -F version nvidia # should output the version of the driver sand not `modinfo: ERROR: Module nvidia not found`.

SSH

Note: I already had a key, but instructions for generating one can be found here.

sudo dnf -y install ksshaskpass
echo "export SSH_ASKPASS=\"\$(which ksshaskpass)\"" >> .bashrc
echo "export GIT_ASKPASS=\"\${SSH_ASKPASS}\"" >> .bashrc
eval "$(ssh-agent -s)"
ssh-add ~/.ssh/id_ed25519 </dev/null
ssh-add -l

Add to ~/.ssh/config:

nano ~/.ssh/config
Host * 
    AddKeysToAgent yes

Git

Before 'Oh my zsh'.

sudo dnf -y install git

Verify config (and update if needed -- e.g. user):

git config --global --edit
git config --global user.name "Ricardo Lindooren" 
git config --global user.email "ricardo@..." 
git config --global user.username "rlindooren"

Enable automatic upsteam:

git config --global push.autoSetupRemote true

Enable symlinks:

git config --global core.symlinks true

ZSH & Oh my zsh

sudo dnf -y install zsh
chsh -s $(which zsh)
zsh
sh -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.github.com/ohmyzsh/ohmyzsh/master/tools/install.sh)"

git clone https://github.com/bhilburn/powerlevel9k.git ${ZSH_CUSTOM:-~/.oh-my-zsh/custom}/themes/powerlevel9k
sudo dnf -y install powerline-fonts

git clone https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-autosuggestions ${ZSH_CUSTOM:-~/.oh-my-zsh/custom}/plugins/zsh-autosuggestions
git clone https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-syntax-highlighting.git ${ZSH_CUSTOM:-~/.oh-my-zsh/custom}/plugins/zsh-syntax-highlighting
git clone https://github.com/MichaelAquilina/zsh-you-should-use.git ${ZSH_CUSTOM:-~/.oh-my-zsh/custom}/plugins/zsh-you-should-use
#git clone https://github.com/fdellwing/zsh-bat.git ${ZSH_CUSTOM:-~/.oh-my-zsh/custom}/plugins/zsh-bat

echo "export SSH_ASKPASS=\"\$(which ksshaskpass)\"" >> .zshrc
echo "export GIT_ASKPASS=\"\${SSH_ASKPASS}\"" >> .zshrc

cp ~/.zshrc ~/.zshrc.bak.1

I manually updated these settings in .zshrc:

nano ~/.zshrc
ZSH_THEME="powerlevel9k/powerlevel9k"

plugins=(
    git
    zsh-autosuggestions
    zsh-syntax-highlighting
    zsh-you-should-use
    #zsh-bat
    ssh-agent
)

# ! Above `source $ZSH/oh-my-zsh.sh`
zstyle :omz:plugins:ssh-agent helper ksshaskpass
zstyle :omz:plugins:ssh-agent identities id_ed25519

Reload:

source ~/.zshrc
