#Hyprland not Starting
66 messages · Page 1 of 1 (latest)
did you install from the package manager?
Yup
pacman
where are you seeing the error message?
After killing it via a secondary tty
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"
1/2
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?
Well its a fresh installation without anything. + Hyprlands config file is still the default one
The default one + Im currently launching via tty, I disabled the service
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
I am not running sddm at the moment just launching via tty
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
please add the nvidia modules to your config
its an old laptop
I don't think he has nvidia
note if your intel cpu full name ends with F it means that you do not have intel graphics
Umm idk tbh
are you able to run gnome or xfce
hm thats weird
I know ☠️
Yes, I tried via Sddm but that didn't work either
Good idea, lemme get yay / paru rq
have this worked before
alr
