## applesetos

Patch to grub for the apple_to_os

This patch can be applied to https://git.savannah.gnu.org/git/grub.git

I had use `--skipinteg` with makepkg because as of today (Jan 5 2018) the grub-git repo has invalid checksums 

This patch also works with the grub-git aur repo for arch linux. To install for arch linux do the following

    git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/grub-git.git

    cd grub-git

    makepkg -so # don't install yet we haven't applied the patch

    cd src/grub/

    # download the patch here

    wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Kronos3/Macbook-Pro-11-3/master/applesetos.patch

    # apply the patch

    patch -p1 < applesetos.patch

    # compile git

    cd ../../ && makepkg -sri

## NVIDIA Backlight

    git clone https://github.com/NVIDIA/egl-wayland.git

    cd egl-wayland

    wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kronos3/Macbook-Pro-11-3/master/wayland-egl.patch

    patch -p1 < wayland-egl.patch

    ./autogen.sh

## Spotify

(Scale the client, requires spotify-gnome-integration)

    git clone https://github.com/mrpdaemon/gnome-integration-spotify.git

    cd gnome-integration-spotify

    wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kronos3/Macbook-Pro-11-3/master/spotify-dbus.patch

    wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kronos3/Macbook-Pro-11-3/master/spotify.desktop

    patch -p0 < spotify-dbus.patch

    sudo cp spotify.desktop /usr/share/applications/spotify.desktop

    sudo cp spotify-dbus.py /usr/bin

Disable play/pause bindings in gnome-settings

Create new binding with following:

 - Command: `dbus-send --print-reply --dest=org.mpris.MediaPlayer2.spotify /org/mpris/MediaPlayer2 org.mpris.MediaPlayer2.Player.PlayPause`

 - Shortcut: anything

run `dconf write /org/gnome/settings-daemon/plugins/media-keys/custom-keybindings/custom0/binding "'AudioPlay'"`

## Console font

Install the terminus-font package

`/etc/vconsole.conf`

    FONT=ter-132n

    FONT_MAP=8859-2

## NVIDIA Blackscreen

If you are blackscreening after `startx` try adding yourself to the `video` group.

If all else fails go into gnome using `gdm`.
