(Not Really) A Guide To Setup Dolphin & KDE File Picker On Niri - Arch Linux

My Thought On Making This

I have looked around online and noticed a lot of users that moved to Niri come from KDE, or were using Dolphin on their previous WM/DE and want to use it on Niri. The problem is that unlike Nautilus, the Dolphin experience on Niri is not out of the box, it has a lot of issues. 90% of the time you open Dolphin the first time it doesn't work properly and it looks horrible. So I try to write this to ~~steal~~gather all the fixes that I have found and turn it into a guide for newcomers to make Dolphin functions as close as it was on KDE.

This guide focuses on Vanilla Niri. I personally don't use any plugin or theming shell so I don't know exactly how they work.

At the time I'm writing this I'm thinking of upload it into a gist or something at some point, to make it easier to update things and to access/download. Edit: gist

This is a work in progress 🛠️

Pixel art

Pixel art is like art, but with pixels.

Generally the distinction is made at the point where the placement and colour relationships of individual pixels have a significant impact on the final piece, and where the artist is (or should be) concerned about optimising those relationships. This generally means both lower overall resolutions and lower colour counts, but there are many important works of pixel art that transcend those restrictions.

Pixel art and game art are often intertwined. Pixel art has long been used for game art because earlier systems had lower resolutions and lower colour counts, making a pixel art approach more important. It is important to understand, however, that the modern pixel art "movement" occurred significantly after those limited systems were mainstream, the modern understanding of pixel art has been developed in a reasonably post-hoc manner and the amount of academic interest in the movement is relatively tiny, with most of the folks

Document Revision 1.3 [12/24/25] Notice: This guide is officially out of date, as now the memoria mod manager and moguri mod work much better in tandum with one another.

The new recommended way to install moguri and associated mods is to follow the Memoria mod installer guide which has steam deck specific instructions. Note that FFIX needs to be installed before running the installation script.

For legacy installations, older versions of moguri or any other strange mod installation needs, the old guide could be useful for reference. As a result, I've kept this document intact for the previous revision.

DEPRECATED Document Revision 1.2 [07/15/22]

Author Notes: Thanks to everyone who has been testing or using this installation process. I've refined the instructions to try to make this installation as simple and cross platform as humanly possible. I've also updated the Steam Deck instructions now that I have had mine for a while and thoroughly tested the instal
