Great video. Remember that if you forget to run a command with sudo, you can do it by typing "sudo !!" instead of going to the previous command through history and add "sudo" to the begining ;) Cheers!
I can’t believe it! I have a virtual machine I boot into just to use a browser on my work VPN, and chose Linuxmint cinnamon for the purpose, but I recently realised that I didn’t need cinnamon and all the things, instead I thought I could try Debian with a window manager alone, and treat the VW almost like a special instance of a web browser, and here you go! Surely going to try this, thanks
Great video. I'm a Arch user (this channel checked me a lot with configuration). Long time ago I tried for a short time Debian. Till now I don't fully understand debian mirrors setup. Would you consider creating short video about this? If I'm correct there are source servers, backport servers and more. As I said I don't understand this
Hi Ermanno nice video, oddly I installed Debian Bookworm (testing/semi-rolling) with KDE Plasma DE on Thursday; I thought that I would give it a try, I am enjoying Debian without using an Ubuntu base distribution.
Hi Ermanno, great video as always! Thank you! Would be nice to have a deeper explanation on Debian repositories and how to configure/install/update/remove packages from (for example) other repositories/sources or gitbub
Your video was very helpful. I recently put Debian 11 and i3 on a laptop using various sources as guides. Your step-by-step video helped me with my configuratiion files with things those sources had missed. By the way, I'm new to tiling window managers. Thanks for the video.
that was brilliant thank you, I am coming over from ubuntu!

Understandable, fairly short, and professional As always! Thank you Ermanno! Maybe you just changed my daily driver back to Debian! I have an i3-gaps+Debian 10 install on my laptop, but I think I had a few mistakes during the install, and it's not as minimalistic, that I wanted to be.. But you just enlighted my way, how to do it! With this in mind I can now install an ultra minimal Debian 11 to my desktop machine (it's got Fedora 35 ATM)...
Great video as always! Very timely also, since next week I am going to setup a new PC in my office and I was thinking about this exact combination, debian 11 and i3. Usually, when I install debian, I leave the root password empty during installation to have sudo directly. What is your opinion about it?
Sir you are the reason why I love my arch dwm install so much. All your tuts on wms are really good and actually nobody really does that on TH-cam. I would like it a lot if u can do full arch install without your personal script like you've been doing recently. Love from india
Very nice video, thanks ! I run arch for three years now, and I tried some Ubuntu based distros but never debian itself. I might try the testing version
Clean and easy to understand. Window managers like i3wm, awesomewm or a light DE like lxqt, these kind of light environments are perfect for every computer. But Ermano why did not you install ranger for file browser? A person like you who uses vim very well should use ranger with i3wm.
@@eflinux Yes, “should” was not a good word. Sorry, English is not my native language and neither yours. Anyway i respect your choice of file manager 👍🏻
Question how do I submit my Respin Of KDE Neon and Or Xfce respin for an overview or review is there an email address ? Mine Is called StormFish OS. Thank You.
Very interesting. Is there a reason while you don't use feh for your wallpaper insteed of nitrogen? I am so sorry for my bad english. I hope you understand it
No, sudo is not installed because you entered the password for root user, as it was written in the information page where you entered the root password. So please do not enter the root password. If you enter the root password, sudo will not be set up. If have an empty password for the root, your root user will be locked, and you should be able to use sudo on the first user instead. Better security. Except that, a really nice video.
Are you installing this on VirtualBox on Arch? All your sceen resolution options don't work if you use Debian as a host system for VirtualBox. Arch has virtualbox-guest-utils, Debian doesn't. VirtualBox Guest Additions on Debian isn't that straight forward. You've got to install them manually on every VM. Nice video, though. I'll be walking the steps my way... the Debian way. Stay healthy, stay save and best regards, Philippe
Super video, but the step to connect to the net is skipped (sorry i'm french and I don't know if my english is correct). I use the 'iwconfig' command but it don't match. I have a strig key and i use the 's:' before but i get an error. And another thing it's how can we see the vidéo in console mode ;-) I've writen all the commands on a paper and it will be good later.

Thank you so much! I've followed your tuto and installed Debian 12 and i3. I was a few year using Windows only. Now I'm back to the Penguin
Congratulations Ermano, a nice contribution for the WM beginner, for the Debian user!
Greetings from Limoeiro, Pernambuco - Brazil!
Pera, vc é o criador do i3WM?/Wait, u are the creator of i3WM?
This is one of the most informative videos setting up Linux. Thank you for taking the time to do this.
Debian 11 with I3WM...!!! Wow... i will definitely use it! thank you very much, Ermanno..

That was the legwork. Now the fun can begin. Lately I've been exploring the Gimp G'mic plugin. Positively addictive. :)

Usually, when I install debian, I leave the root password empty during installation to have sudo directly. What is your opinion about it?
It's personal preference. I rather have root as a separate user anyway.
Thanks a lot! I was wondering what this i3 is among the Debian users. Now I know. I like it! Will put in to my spare laptop. ;)
Hallo Ermanno,
Danke für die Anleitung Debian mit i3. Habe derzeit Debian mit i3 und compillierten i3-gaps am laufen.
LG Andreas
You sure like WM's, don't you Ermanno? ;-) Interesting video. Thank you!
I surely do ;)

No worries ☺️
excellent video! I learned many new topics
Thanks great video as always, Debian is a very strong distro.
skip making an root account during install, make your user and after reboot, sudo is installed and your user is in de sudo group.
It’s in the video description.
Great video as always. It would be so nice to see Debian 11 & bspwm/spectrwm/qtile in the channel. 😊
Thank you I was struggling to configure now I got basic idea 🎉
by far the best linux youtuber
loved this video, thanks
Great channel. Well done.
Question how do I submit my Respin Of KDE Neon and Or Xfce respin for an overview or review is there an email address ? Mine Is called StormFish OS. Thank You.
What is a window manager that i can configure to best resemble windows with shortcuts to alt+tab or hide all windows (win + d)?
Another great video thanks
Cool Master Ermanno, cool 😎
I am using Debian 11 and i3wm now. Works great, but, in some cases Sway fork can be better.
Awesomeeeeeee ❤️
Would be nice a video on all the major i3 keyboard shortcuts
It would be pleasant to have a install video of dwm on Debian 11 😁
I check this in a VM next time. Love my Arch so much... 😁
Thanks! Very informative video. Repeated on real hardware. But I don't know how to set up Wi-Fi on a laptop..
This is great and super light. I have a great deal of trouble installing bspwm on debian. Super easy on arch, but cannot get it working on bullseye
That's something I never tried, interesting idea.
@@eflinux Seems like no debian/ubuntu has a bspwm option other than arch-based distros
Hello Ermanno, great video as always, can we have a video on RiverWM - a wayland tiling window manager please?
you are awesome!
Sir , i3 for Debian is stall based on Xorg? not Wayland..
Hi ermanno, I installed on physical machine and don't have internet. I also want to configure minimal Debian 11 install
Very interesting. Is there a reason while you don't use feh for your wallpaper insteed of nitrogen? I am so sorry for my bad english. I hope you understand it
No worries 😃 Not particularly. I use both, but his time I went with nitrogen.
No, sudo is not installed because you entered the password for root user, as it was written in the information page where you entered the root password.

Heeey my big brother I hope you will
I have question when u start installation gentoo system
simple & great
thanks finnaly moved to i3

It's installed on Virtual Machine Manager.
@@eflinux Works in Virtual Machine Manager. I'm going to use VirtualBox as a backup system for virtual machines from now on :).
How about debian with bspwm? Can you make about it
Hi, can you try installing leftwm on archlinux?
Super video, but the step to connect to the net is skipped (sorry i'm french and I don't know if my english is correct).
I use the 'iwconfig' command but it don't match. I have a strig key and i use the 's:' before but i get an error.
And another thing it's how can we see the vidéo in console mode ;-)
I've writen all the commands on a paper and it will be good later.
Firefox use 1gb 😑 so you need at least 2gb ram and 5gb of swap 👍🏻
Hi Ermanno, please also do videos enterprise Linux like suse enterprise and red hat enterprise.
You are like derek"distrotube" now 😁
He’s a nice guy 😊
@@eflinux Like you ♥️
Never heard of Debby & Ian = Deb..Ian, so not Deebian?
Yes
sway wm the best of the best!
i3 rules... but precompiled linuxes suck...
