I know this is suboptimal, but maybe we could remove them after installation. I hope there is a better solution
simply remove the line:
- packagename
as commenting with # is not compatible with yaml, and adding a package needs to be in exactly the format also.
I do a test run in VM and it does install sway but it does not inject the configs, so i need to investigate with @manuel later.
But now Lunchtime here…
I mean how would we exclude stuff in the base utllis? We don’t need it for sway but we need for the other ones.
Or is each yaml seperate for each choice? (I think i’m being stupid?)
the netinstall.yaml will be replaced, and if you choose sway to install you can not install other DE/WM, we do change the way WM’s will be installed it will be called before installer starts, there you put in your git repo url and then it will show only the netinstall.yaml from this repository as i show in the screenshot. So to make it easy you can put on baseinstall what is needed and remove what is not needed, plus you can also untag stuff on install process
oohhh , that makes sense now. Thank you
maybe someone has already suggested it, to run Firefox natively in Wayland I’ve put this in my sway config:
bindsym $mod+Shift+f exec MOZ_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1 firefox
I think we will set it in an env variable. It just been added, but not tested yet, so feel free to give it a try.
I’m being very stupid but how can I get a hidden file to show up in github
You added the env variables!! You are amazing!
the do show up:
Ohh, I’m stupid! Lots of things are getting done now! The setup.sh has been added as well as the env variables.
I just have to push waybar in a few hours
Update for today!
Lots of good news!
-
Setup script by @morten-b was pushed
-
@morten-b also added env variables
-
@morten-b did loads of things to clean it up!
-
I pushed waybar and the GTK3 themes.
-
Some progress on the packakes - I don’t want to say it’s finished without checking it
Things to Do
- GTK2 - It won’t upload !!!
- GK4??
- Waybar cleaning
- Working on our sway mode for power menu
- Just general trimming and adding some nice comments for people
We both have test this week, not sure about morten but I have to disappear into revision for today. Not thats stopped either of us
how can i set keyboard lang and display resolution for sway?
See the input and output section of the default config: https://github.com/swaywm/sway/blob/master/config.in
If you run into trouble of a missing mouse in VMs we need to add another env variable
Keyboard layout is on the config. Right at the very top.
# Keyboard - Uncomment to Pick - Defualt is ENGLISH (UK)
# All langauges and varinats in keyboard.conf
input * xkb_layout "gb"
#input * xkb_layout "us"
#input * xkb_layout "de"
#input * xkb_layout "nl"
issue is that it is hidden from local filemanagement… you can still create a new file manually at github interface and copy paste text inside… or use commandline to do so…
gtk3 should be there
~/.config/gtk-2.0
~/.config/gtk-3.0
~/.gtkrc-2.0
And yea keyboard layout I do find already, but I have an issue that I can not set a bigger resolution for display inside qemu…
Are these iconfonts fixed in the bar now?
I could try that on real hardware…
Yeah and that the wrong bar
Install ttf-nerd-font-symbols
The new bar has been pushed
I’m not about display resolution sorry
Done! As gtkrc-2.0.
Also? What are your thoughts about wlogout?? Could we possibly create a package for it?
wdisplays available in the official repositories. ( I think)
