-Docker is pretty cool you should use it, https://www.kali.org/news/official-kali-linux-docker-images/
also works with wifite2, it basically is a shell-oriented low-weight high-performance virtual machine
wich can run prebuilt docker images or your personal docker images. Docs: https://docs.docker.com/

If there are update related errors that you do not understand, do not panic
issue a full update with the following commands:
`sudo pacman -Syy` and then `sudo pacman -Su`
-Pacman commands:
"pacman -Syy" update repositories
"pacman -Su" update packages
"pacman -Qdtq" list unused/orphan packages
"pacman -R" remove a package
"pacman -S" install a package
"pacman -R $(pacman -Qdtq)" remove unused packages
"pacman -Rns" remove packages and its dependencies recursively
"pacman -Rcs" remove packages and its dependents recursively
"pacman -Ql" list all package's files and locations
"pacman -Qqe" list all installed packages
"pacman -Qc" view package changelog
"pacman -Qm" list packages not present in official repositories
If you panic just do "sudo pacman -Syy" and then "sudo pacman -Su"
"rm -rf /var/lib/pacman/db.lck" remove pacman's transaction lock file
(to solve "could not unlock database" error, which happen when pacman is already running)
NOTE: If all of a sudden everything is fucked up bad (like no GUI whatsowever)
check the pacman log at "/var/log/pacman.log" to see what went wrong and what got removed
To manage and download packages from the AUR use:
pikaur: https://github.com/actionless/pikaur#installation
yaourt (unmantained)
These are all wrappers which means they extend some functionalities of pacman to use
AUR, for example updating and installing packages (-Syu and -S)
NOTE: pacman wrappers don't need to be run as root since it's dangerous to
run PKGBUILD as such.
Pacman GUI frontends:
"pamac" based on gtk and it is the same GUI frontend in the gnome and KDE releases
of manjaro, to install use the package "pamac-aur" or "pamac-aur-git" from the AUR.
"octopi" is a lightweight GUI frontend for pacman and it is one of the most used ones
although it isn't as visually appealing as pamac and requires a gtk sudo permission
package such as "blank don't remember"
Ranking mirrors based on speed:
If you get an error similar to `could not unlock database` when trying to
issue a command that means that another program is using the package manager.
If you feel like taking the risk of breaking your system try manually (and forcefully)
removing the transaction lock file by issuing `rm -rf /var/lib/pacman/db.lck`
In the unfortunate event that all of a sudden everything fucked up bad
(like no xorg or wayland or login session ...),
check the pacman log at `/var/log/pacman.log` to see what went wrong and what got removed
-Network management
Arch uses netctl to manage connections, all the config files and examples are under
/etc/netctl/ and /etc/netctl/examples

-Network managers:
NetworkManager: default in many distros pretty good but resorce heavy (also depends on systemd?)
void: https://docs.voidlinux.org/config/network/networkmanager.html
arch: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/NetworkManager
Connman: small and fast, does all you need and doesn't hog on resources and has vpn support
void: https://wiki.voidlinux.org/Connman
arch: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/ConnMan
Wicd: outdated by now and written in python 2.7, still pretty good for simple configurations
Pacman GUI frontends (I advice you to not use them)::
* `pamac`: based on gtk and it is the same GUI frontend in the gnome and KDE releases
of manjaro, install `pamac-aur` or `pamac-aur-git` from the AUR.
* `octopi`: is a lightweight GUI frontend for pacman and it is one of the most used ones
although it isn't as visually appealing as pamac and requires a gtk permission manager.

-Fixing mandoc.db permission denied
Source: https://old.reddit.com/r/voidlinux/comments/dsdn5a/did_sudo_behaviour_change_recently/
If you ran "sudo makewatis ..." then it is possible that the file permissions
of /usr/share/man/mandoc.db and /usr/local/share/man/mandoc.db were changed from
644 (rw-r--r--) to 600 (rw-------), giving the error when viewing man pages
"... mandoc.db permission denied" or "data changed but could not update mandoc.db" etc.
To fix this simply do: sudo chmod 644 /usr/share/man/mandoc.db
Hold package updates::
* Hold: `xbps-pkgdb -m hold <pkg>`
* Unhold: `xbps-pkgdb -m unhold <pkg>`
* List packages on hold: `xbps-query --list-hold-pkgs`

=== Fixing mandoc.db permission denied
*Source*: https://old.reddit.com/r/voidlinux/comments/dsdn5a/did_sudo_behaviour_change_recently/[link]
If you ran `sudo makewatis ...` then it is possible that the file permissions
of `/usr/share/man/mandoc.db` and `/usr/local/share/man/mandoc.db` were changed from
644 (rw-r--r--) to 600 (rw-------), giving the error when viewing man pages
`... mandoc.db permission denied` or `data changed but could not update mandoc.db` etc.

-"acpi" is kinda important in laptops "acpi -i" for info, also "thinkpad_acpi" should be noted
=== Important packages
* `acpi` gives information and control on battery and power status, it can also handle
power related events (lid open/close, power button press, etc.)
* `thinkpad_acpi` acpi addon specific to thinkpads
-Basic commands:
GREP:
G-REP or "grep" can be used to filter command results:
"ps ax | grep whatyouwant" and it will output the line containing "whatyouwant"
example "dmesg | grep whatyouwant"
NOTE: "|" is used to pipe the output in another program
PS:
Ps is a UNIX tool used to get information about the current status of the system
=== Qt in wayland
To run QT prigrams in wayland install `qt5-wayland` and add the followind line somewhere
in your profile (.profile .zprofile .bash_profile etc.)
`export QT_QPA_PLATFORM=wayland`
=== Monitor Tor network usage
install the `arm` package and run it
=== Basic commands
* `grep`: find the lines which contain the input string: +
`ps ax | grep <query>` and it will output the line containing the query +
`grep <query> file.txt` search matches in file +
`grep -i <query> file.txt` case insensitive search
* `ps`: Ps is a UNIX tool used to get information about the current status of the system. +
The most basic and or useful usage is to view all the running processes and the corresponding
UUIDs (like if you want to kill process and you need its UUID), that is done by appending "ax"
to ps: "ps ax"
KILL:
It kill the specified process given its UUID, syntax "kill <UUID>"
"|" and ">":
UUIDs, that is done by appending `ax` to ps: +
`ps ax`
* `kill`: kill the specified process given its UUID: +
`kill <UUID>`
* `killall`: kill all the processes which name matches the arguments: +
`killall <proc name>`
* `|` and `>`:
These are both "pipe" functions, they can pipe the output of a script or program into
something (via std i/o), but they are used differently in the sense that "|" is specifically
used to pipe the output into another program EX: "ps ax | grep gnome-shell", this outputs the UUIDs
of all the gnome-shell instances since the output of "ps ax" is piped into GREP which in turn
returns just the results of the query.
On the other hand ">" is used to pipe the output into a file EX: "ls -la > ls.txt", this puts
the output of ls into ls.txt which we can then read.
"whoami" and "groups":
they respectively output the current user and groups
NOTE: one alternative to "whoami" is "echo $USER" which can be used in scripts
FIND:
Sources:
https://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/how-do-i-find-all-the-files-owned-by-a-particular-user-or-group/
refer to man for all the available options
Basic syntax:
"find <dir> [OPTIONS]"
OPTIONS:
"-user <user>" find files owned by a particular user
"-group <group>" find files owned by a particular group
"-ls" list results in "ls" format:
"-name <filename>" find a specific file or pattern (*.txt)
something (via std i/o), but they are used differently in the sense that `|` is
used to pipe the output into another program, example: +
`ps ax | grep xorg` this outputs all the runnng processes into grep as
input, which in turn filters the result. +
On the other hand `>` is used to pipe the output into a file, example: +
`ls -la > ls.txt` this puts the output of ls into ls.txt which we can then read.
*NOTE*: `>` replaces everything that was in the file
* `<`: same thing as `>` but in "reverse"
* `>>` and `<<`: same as `<` and `>` but appends instead of replacing
* `whoami` and `groups`:
they respectively output the current user and groups +
*NOTE*: one alternative to `whoami` is `echo $USER` which can be used in scripts
* `find`: Basic syntax: +
`find <dir> [OPTIONS]` +
Some options: +
** `-user <user>`: find files owned by a particular user
** `-group <group>`: find files owned by a particular group
** `-ls`: list results in "ls" format:
** `-name <filename>`: find a specific file or pattern (*.txt)
-Groups:
Adding users to groups:
"usermod -a -G group user"
reboot
Listing all groups:
"cut -d: -f1 /etc/group | sort"
=== Group actions
* Adding a user to a group: +
`usermod -a -G group user` then reboot
* Listing all groups: +
`cut -d: -f1 /etc/group | sort`
* Deleting a group: +
`groupdel <group name>` then reboot
-Users:
Creating a new user:
useradd -m user-name
Deleting an existing user:
userdel user-name
=== Users actions
* Creating a new user: +
`useradd -m user-name`
* Deleting an existing user: +
`userdel user-name`
-Linux afterinstall (how to get thing working):
Bluetooth usage:
Refers to:
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Bluetooth_headset
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/bluetooth
Start the "bluetooth.service" service then refer to:
Generating locales (languages and language support):
Add locales uncommenting them in /etc/locale.gen
Run "locale-gen"
Reboot
NOTE: if installing locales with a specific character set (russian, chinese, japanese)
it is needed to also install the specific fonts, refer to:
"https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Localization" to find the specific font packages
and install them using pacman
Getting the graphics drivers:

Adding entropy to your system:
Refers to: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Random_number_generation
This is useful as the kernel's built-in random number generator is very slow, as such
it makes tasks like loading the login manager a pain.
To solve this problem you can install some pseudo-random number generators such as:
"rng-tools" secure, uses more CPU
"haveged" fast and lightweight
NOTE: Keep in mind that these are not for secure systems and remember to start and enable the service
rngd.service
Getting NTFS support working:
Refers to: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/NTFS-3G
Install the "ntfs-3g" package
=== Generating locales
. Add locales by uncommenting them in `/etc/locale.gen`
. generate locales by running `locale-gen`
. Reboot
-Listing installed packages:
With apt/apt-get:
"apt list --installed"
With pacman:
"pacman -Qqe"
With xbps:
xbps-query -m
*NOTE*: some languages (russian, chinese, japanese) require specific fonts to be installed
refer to: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Localization[link] for an incomplete list of specific fonts
-Changing the default shell
To change your default shell to something other than bash use:
"chsh -s full-path-to-shell" for example "chsh -s /bin/zsh"
to list all installed shells use "chsh -l"
=== Getting the graphics drivers
For Intel graphics cards::

-Recompiling compilers for zerynth:
If facing compiling errors in zerynth, manually recompile the compiler for the board in ""~/.zerynth2/sys"
for example replacing the xtensa-lx106 compiler (esp8266) goes:
1-Move the old compiler folder somewhere safe (~/.zerynth2/sys/xtensa-lx106)
2-Clone and compile (as standalone) new compiler in a temporary folder, guide here -> "http://domoticx.com/sdk-esp8266-xtensa-architecture-toolchain/"
3-Move the newly created compiler folder (xtensa-lx106-elf) in ~/.zerynth2/sys and rename it as the original one (xtensa-lx106/)
4-Copy the old package.json in the new compiler folder
Better yet is to wait for an official fix and report the bug on the troubleshooting section
