Team Nocturnal — Linux Tools

Linux Tools is a collection of cross-distro automation scripts designed to make Linux setup and maintenance fast, clean, and consistent — whether you’re brand new to Linux or a power user looking to save time.

Overview

• Who it’s for:

  • New users: No need to learn package managers — our scripts handle everything with a single run.
  • Power users: Idempotent, safe scripts you can re-run anytime to bootstrap or standardize multiple systems.

• What it offers:

  • Universal post-install presets (Gaming, Media, General, Lite, Full)
  • Automated gaming environment setup (Steam, Lutris/Heroic, Proton helpers, MangoHud, GameMode, etc.)
  • NVIDIA Driver Installation (Signed/Unsigned) with Secure Boot MOK support — Wiki: NVIDIA Driver Installer
  • System cleanup utilities for safe removal of cache, unused packages, and more
  • Update helpers for keeping your system current
  • Cross-distro compatibility (Fedora/RHEL, Ubuntu/Debian, Arch, openSUSE)
  • Logging for every run to ~/scripts/logs/ with colorful status indicators

• Design principles:

  • Simple — Sensible defaults, minimal interaction
  • Safe — No hard exits; continues on recoverable errors
  • Repeatable — Already-installed packages are skipped
  • Cross-platform — Auto-detects and uses the native package manager
