Getting Pantheon to run -- a brief guide for crazy people who don't mind jank

• HADRIAN

  3 15 6.7 Shell

  Discontinued Pantheon Desktop Environment installer script for Arch Linux

Then you're gonna need to install dialog with pacman -S dialog and follow the instructions to get the HADRIAN script from this Github page. This is a script for Arch that downloads and installs the latest version of Pantheon, LightDM, the elementary greeter, and does all the basic setup for you. Pick the options you want (I did all of them because I actually like the default elementary apps), go through the installer, and when you're done you'll be back to the CLI, where you want to reboot.

  3 24 9.2 Vala

  Switchboard Mouse & Touchpad Plug

  

Start by git clone-ing the https://github.com/elementary/switchboard-plug-mouse-touchpad project, and cd into the switchboard-plug-mouse-touchpad directory. We need to edit the meson_options.txt file to tell the compiler that we want to use the Gnome 40 version of the plug's calls, which is as easy as changing the option('gnome_40', type : 'boolean', value : false) line to read true instead of false. Once that's done, it's the same story as the other bits:
