Getting Hyprland

Yeah i always change my hyprland config to but this i forgot freaking waybar. i did read it before about wlr/workspaces but i forgot totally.

Too much technical stuff for me :sweat_smile: Kudos :grin:

This is perfect. Can not wait to try it :slight_smile:

Decided to try eww over waybar and . . . . well . . . eww. Widget were cool but there were some weird overlay issues on the screen. Was trying this specific branch https://github.com/end-4/dots-hyprland/tree/hybrid

waiting on the community edition push :slight_smile:

Here is my hacked up screeenshot

I just wish i could edit the Waybar to make it how i want as i don’t like some of the configurations on most of the scripts i have tried.

agreed, I hack together some waybar features and steal css from other dot files. Happy with the features but i just grabbed a simple css for the bar.

@ricklinux I would suggest looking at many waybar and style.css configs to get a feel for how things work, and the perhaps ‘borrow’ some of those elements that you can apply to your own, existing set up. You might be able to ‘frankenstein’ a cool bar that way.

Or, at the very least, gain a little more knowledge and perspective along the way.

I read your your Hyprland guides, one and two and found them to be very easy and straight forward, especially for the novice user wanting to install Hyprland.

Kudos to you @lorebett for providing these guides. I only hope more people read them, and try out Hyprland for themselves.

@meurglys Thank you so much for the kind words! :blush:

And here’s the third guide: https://www.lorenzobettini.it/2023/09/hyprland-and-ssh-agent/

Great series…I appreciate you taking the time to write and share this, so others may be able to get up and running with Hyprland.

Thanks to your guide, I learned how to add wpctl set-volume to my wireplumber module in my waybar config to adjust the sound incrementally. Before that, I was using the pw-volume package from the AUR.

yes, thank you! Very useful. Great blog!

Thanks. This is going to be helpful as I continue to get my Hyprland set up. I wonder if it will banish the dreaded 2FA email code when signing into github.com?

In a similar vein, I wrote a guide on setting up encryption keys and sub keys a few years ago https://www.digitalneanderthal.com/post/gpg/

Another post on your blog that I knocked alot of value was about setting charging values https://www.lorenzobettini.it/2023/06/tlp-limiting-battery-charge-on-lg-gram-in-linux/. I didn’t know it was possible! That works flawlessly. and the laptop runs on ‘mains’ electricity alone when the battery is full. I set mine to 85% stop charging.

I wonder if that’s why I can’t get sound working with ncmpcpp and mopidy. My sound works with the JaKoolit script with the exception of that one application.

@briainod Hmmmmmm…I installed a fresh Hyprland here in EOS, using the no desktop option from the installer. When I install ncmpcpp, I also get mpc and mpd and it always works for me.

I looked the the archinstall issues wiki this evening, and they still haven’t completely fixed the pipewire-jack/jack2 problem, although, they seem to think that by changing the installation order, and having pipewire download before everything else might work.

I also read somewhere that firefox is causing some of these issues.

My dotfiles for anyone interested. I use vcsh to manage it.

Sadly, it looks like the community editions are going away for now. Maybe we could get Sway or Hyprland added to the online installation if EndeavourOS gets some contributors!

(I plan on helping soon; I’m just waiting on a laptop that seems to be delayed…)
