Hey guys, I'm following the Nvidia instructions on the Hyprland Wiki (https://wiki.hyprland.org/Nvidia/) and a section of it says

Export these variables in your config:
env = LIBVA_DRIVER_NAME,nvidia
env = XDG_SESSION_TYPE,wayland
env = GBM_BACKEND,nvidia-drm
env = __GLX_VENDOR_LIBRARY_NAME,nvidia
env = WLR_NO_HARDWARE_CURSORS,1

I'm not sure which config it's talking about. I'm thinking it's referencing the config file at /etc/modprobe.d/nvidia.conf that it had me create on the line above but I'm not entirely sure.

it's not, it is asking you export those environment variables somewhere, such as your script to start hyprland or your bashrc

I'm setting it up like this.

.config/hypr/hyperland.conf

source=~/.config/hypr/environment.conf
source=~/.config/hypr/displays.conf
source=~/.config/hypr/variables.conf
source=~/.config/hypr/binds.conf
source=~/.config/hypr/windowrules.conf
source=~/.config/hypr/apps.conf
source=~/.config/hypr/polish.conf

.config/hypr/enviroment.conf

env = WLR_NO_HARDWARE_CURSORS,1
env = WLR_RENDERER,vulkan
env = XDG_SESSION_TYPE,wayland
env = QT_QPA_PLATFORM,wayland
env = QT_WAYLAND_DISABLE_WINDOWDECORATION,1
env = MOZ_ENABLE_WAYLAND,1
env = MOZ_USE_XINPUT2,1
env = __GL_GSYNC_ALLOWED,0
env = __GL_VRR_ALLOWED,0
env = SDL_VIDEODRIVER,wayland
env = _JAVA_AWT_WM_NONEREPARENTING,1

this way hyprland reads from an env setting that's easy to find

@pure carbon Okay sweet, I'll use that as a reference! I'm still really new to Linux so don't fully understand using source and structuring things like that, but I'll do some research.
Thank you so much!

Dude, you are so awesome. Really wish there was a Hyprland Discord so I didn't have to bother these fine folks. Thank you for the link!

You're thanking too much ó_ò

There is though.

WHAT!? I looked. Obviously not hard enough. I'll try again.

I personally asked a few questions in https://discord.gg/nuHBMNGS It isn't specifically the hyprland one, but https://discord.com/invite/hQ9XvMUjjr is the official one

#

though I've heard some not so nice things about the hyprland dev, I don't know if it's my place to bring out that story. it's drama drama

I searched for both on the Discord communities, but I guess a server has to be a certain size before it shows up there or something.
Ahhhh, great. If they're too toxic then I'll just use Wayland. You have been beyond helpful, man. So much appreciated.
