Hyprland doesn't start at my old Laptop. I installed it exact the same Like I did on my main device. The only difference is that my Old one uses MBR since it has a Bios. My Main one is on GPT UEFI. The Error is: Failed to read Wayland events: Broken Pipe.

#

did you install from the package manager?

#

Yup

#

pacman

#

where are you seeing the error message?

leaden kelp
#

so if you kill it, you will see the broken pipe. the connection is expected to be available and when you kill it the connection or pipe will be broken.

#

which tty are you in?

#

usually 7 or 3 is the gui

#

i think arch does tty 1 now

#

Well if I launch it either via Tty or Sddm it freezes? and theres just a black/darkgrey screen. Im unable to do anything on that "space"

#

hyprland was installed with no display manager and no desktop environment correct?

#

if there was a manager or environment then the configuration for them may still be active and not using hyprland. this would be a misconfiguration.

#

Yes, Ive installed arch + Hyprland countless times on my main device. I dont think it's an installation issue

#

what does your sddm config look like?

#

can you run the command cat ~/.local/share/sddm/wayland-session.log

#

if you are running sddm via terminal then you might have a permissions issue

#

Should I try setting those Wayland? variables?

#

install xwayland please

#

ist it an aur package?

#

no

#

xorg-xwayland

#

Already installed

#

pacman -Qs gives me as its output xorg-wayland

#

which compositor are you using?

#

Hyprland -Wayland? Or what do you mean?

#

is your kernel mode set for wayland?

#

Where do I check that?

#

mkinicpio.conf?

#

yes

#
