Omarchy

ProbeLabs65 findings · 95 requirements

A proof layer — requirements, tests and verified fixes — for two of Omarchy's subsystems: the application menu (launcher scripts, QML model, JSONC config, search and selection) and the lock screen (lock scripts, QML, PAM authentication). Scope is deliberately limited to those components of omacom/omarchy; the rest of the distribution is not covered.

System details

Surface Book 2

What's wrong?

Surface Book 2, so after archinstall using the setup from https://learn.omacom.io/2/the-omarchy-manual/96/manual-installation, I follow the guide from surface-linux here https://github.com/linux-surface/linux-surface/wiki/Installation-and-Setup.

Since I was hit by #3335 during my last install attempt some weeks ago I moved /boot/EFI/limine/limine.conf to /boot/limine.conf this time, even though the issue was closed. Update limine.conf to add entry with surface-linux and reboot with secure boot works fine.

During omarchy 3.2 install, I see

Updated: /boot/limine.conf

which makes me happy. However, it is followed by:

v Signed /boot/EFI/limine/limine_x64.efi
(5/7) Reloading system bus configuration
(6/7) Updating icon theme caches...
(7/7) Updating the desktop file MIME type cache...
Error: Limine config not found at /boot/limine/limine.conf

This command halted with exit code 0:
Failed script: /home/zark/.local/share/omarchy/install/login/limine-snapper.sh

There was no /boot/limine/limine.conf after archinstall and I did not move it there, so I guess that is correct - but then why does it fail on this path?

I have no folder /boot/limine/

The install seems to have updated /boot/limine.conf properly and there is the expected /boot/limine.conf.old as well.

I see in limine-snapper.sh that it really does fall back to that path:
https://github.com/basecamp/omarchy/blob/master/install/login/limine-snapper.sh#L10-L20

  # Conf location is different between EFI and BIOS
  if [[ -n "$EFI" ]]; then
    # Check USB location first, then regular EFI location
    if [[ -f /boot/EFI/BOOT/limine.conf ]]; then
      limine_config="/boot/EFI/BOOT/limine.conf"
    else
      limine_config="/boot/EFI/limine/limine.conf"
    fi
  else
    limine_config="/boot/limine/limine.conf"
  fi

But why?

Changing the fallback to

  else
    limine_config="/boot/limine.conf"
  fi

fixed the issue for me and the install script successfully ran afterwards.
