cool idea thanks

i did it

ps -ef | grep Xorg
username   844308  844002  0 08:51 pts/0    00:00:00 grep Xorg

sddm

sudoedit /etc/sddm.conf.d/nox.conf

[General]
DisplayServer=wayland
GreeterLayer=wayland

[Wayland]
CompositorCommand=Hyprland
#

in hyprland.conf

xwayland {
    enabled = true
}
#

if you set xwayland enabled = false

it will break all X apps but it is easily reversable if you can remember the steps (edit or comment lines in /etc/sddm.confid/nox.conf and hyprland.conf) this means vmware etc will not work (DISPLAY is not set, unable to open the VMware Workstation user interface.)

so keep that part on

#

update: it works

Cool, share if its stable or not when you know . I reverted my changes but my hyprland crashes remain so it may be stable after all
