  1. When I installed it I can't use p10k configure 'cause the folder was read-only so I use sudo [file-manager] (I used polo) and change the permisions of the /usr/share/zsh and after made the changes with p10k I change the folder permisions like it was.

  2. Hi Chris, I'm really a fan of zsh and powerlevel10k, but I noticed something. You included instructions to install zsh-syntax-highlighting, but after the installation is done, there's no syntax highlighting in the terminal. Would you be willing to do a followup video for setting up syntax highlighting?

    Also, after following the steps in the video, my terminator still doesn't particularly behave like yours: there's no suggestions, no syntax highlighting, none of that. Are there perhaps additional steps you did that weren't present in the video?

  3. Hey Chris, shout out to you from Sydney! Thanks man, following your channel has really made easing into Linux fun for me. Coming from Windows , a little bit of 'motivation' to get into Linux is needed! Having this much power over customization and your step by step guides really help! Love it! Thanks mate!

  4. If you follow the instructions at: https://christitus.com/zsh/

    And you use this command:
    "echo 'source ~/powerlevel10k/powerlevel10k.zsh-theme' >>! ~/.zshrc"

    The command didn't work running bash in MXLinux and Unbuntu.

    This will get the error that the p10k configure is not found.
    The command in bash will:
    Make a file called "!" containing "source ~/powerlevel10k/powerlevel10k.zsh-theme /home/demo/.zshrc"

    But if you run the same command in zsh it works. That is why it works when Chris does it in the video.
    It makes a hidden file called ".zshrc" containing "source ~/powerlevel10k/powerlevel10k.zsh-theme"

    Then go back to bash and run zsh then it auto runs the p10k configure.
    Later JINDA!!!

  5. Hello
    Can you make a vedio about server specs?
    Like how many ram and cores do i need
    I know the answer is "it depends"
    But i wanna know, depends on what?
    And what are the types of loads on the website

  6. Hi. I was following with you. However there is one change from what you recommend. This is regarding changing font in terminator. Setting the font in the global tab only sets it for title bar. You have to go to profiles to set the font correctly.

    Thanks a lot for the video!

  7. Thank you! I've done similar term customization with zsh and powerlevel9k, but for some stupid reason I didn't ever write down the process. Every time I had to look it all up and sift through all the wrong ways to find the right way. This is better. Much better. And I've written it down.

  8. I never got the font confirmation (diamond, debian logo), even though I installed and selected the fonts. So i don't see the option for slanted, curve, etc. what is missing?
