# Configure Linux

My ansible setup to configure linux and install apps etc. in real and virtual environments.

## Supported Distros and versions

- Ubuntu 24.04

- Fedora 40

## Prerequisites

- **Install Git**

  - `sudo apt install git` (Ubuntu)

- **Install Ansible**

  - `sudo apt install ansible` (Ubuntu)

    - `flatpak remote-add --if-not-exists flathub https://dl.flathub.org/repo/flathub.flatpakrepo`

    - `flatpak remote-add --if-not-exists --user flathub https://dl.flathub.org/repo/flathub.flatpakrepo`

  - Fedora:

    - Already setup on Fedora, but you can set remotes if needed:

    - `flatpak remote-add --if-not-exists flathub https://dl.flathub.org/repo/flathub.flatpakrepo`

    - `flatpak remote-add --if-not-exists --user flathub https://dl.flathub.org/repo/flathub.flatpakrepo`

- **Install psutil**

## Run

`sudo ansible-pull -U https://github.com/sketchbuch/configure_linux.git local.yaml`
