[SOLVED] ly sway trouble

[dusty raptor]

So, here's the thing:
installed sway,
launching through shell: "uh oh. proprietary open kernel drivers are not supported, use --unsupported-gpu and don't whine in report section if your wm nuke itself."
Ok, launching through requested parameters.

Works fine.
Rebooting in ly greeter.
auth in sway.
"Oops, use the parameters requested earlier."
< So, how to add the --unsupported-gpu parameter to the exec command that's been executed by ly greeter?

Tried to change wayland configs that was noted in ly config.ini, but no signs of success. Now greeter looks better tho.

stuff that login managers execute is usually located around these two folders: /usr/share/xsessions/ and /usr/share/wayland-sessions/

so i guess you have to go here and edit the Exec line to have your needed params or something

[dusty raptor]

I did. And that gave no change.

Sadly.

Will search further.

Oh no need anymore i got it right, but don't really know how. Now it just works. Probably because i changed sway boot config on exec line, but earlier it still didn't work. This early morning everything went smooth with absolutely no reason.

yeah maybe you need to reboot after changing the session .desktop

gnome does a similar thing, it caches the desktop files and refreshes them occasionally

I love linux.
