<ISSUES>
Fixing Font problems 03-10-2019:
as it turns out xorg-fonts causes the issue so unse noto-fonts instead
Udev rules not applying:
in void the default path for udev rules is /usr/lib/udev/rules.d
U2f rules not working:
install the pachage pam-u2f then navigate to the rules folder and check
70-u2f.rules for your specific key, if it is not present add it at the
bottom following the same format as the other keys
"Unfixable" errors at startup:
change the loglevel to 3 in the grub config file located at /etc/default/grub
For better font rendering follow:
