  • Installation of the dynamic window manager Hyprland in a base configuration with the latest Arch Linux archinstall script in Version 2.6.1. Plus bonus chapter about the installation of my dotfiles to generate an advanced Hyprland configuration.
    The Hyprland installation profile includes now: hyprland, dunst, kitty, dolphin, wofi, xdg-desktop-portal-hyprland, qt5-wayland and gt6-wayland.
    The Hyprland support of the archinstall script was again improved in version 2.6.1 by adding additional packages to the Hyprland installation profile.
    github.com/archlinux/archinst...
    Means you will get a full running Hyprland installation in base configuration without adding additional packages.
    Archinstall 2.6.1 is not yet included in the latest Arch Linux ISO but as you will see in the video you can easily update to this version already with the September ISO. With the upcoming October release archinstall will be officially included.
    I will install Arch Linux and Hyprland in a virtual machine, but everything should also work even better on real hardware.
    At the end of the video I will install the latest version of my dotfiles 2.2.1 to transform the base Hyprland installation into a full advanced window manager.
    Commands after booting into the Arch Linux ISO:
    loadkeys de-latin1 # if needed
    pacman -Sy
    pacman-key --init
    pacman -S archinstall
    My dotfiles:
    cd
    sudo pacman -S git
    git clone gitlab.com/stephan-raabe/dotf...
    cd dotfiles
    ./1-install.sh
    ./2-install-hyprland.sh
    ./3-dotfiles.sh

    another great video, thank you for the walkthrough with the new archinstaller.
    good to see the new packages in the installer, i am currently working on a script that i run just before your dotfiles to install the latest nvidia-dkms and make the appropriate alterations to the grub/mkinitcpio and then adding the nvidia variables into the system and the hyprland.conf file
    i have also tweaked your original rounded waybar to be more square with additional functionality added to your default waybar modules config
    well done and keep up the amazing work you are doing, i had become uninspired with Linux in the last few years Gnome going off on a strange tangent, KDE/XFCE are pretty stagnant in their DE's but you have started a fire in me and using i am using it full time with hyprland as my default desktop

    !EDIT! Works under BIOS if you remember to move your optical drive up in the boot options menu before beginning install. UEFI still breaks everything. All following this guide just omit the part about switching to UEFI, and go with GRUB instead of systemd-boot all is good.
    Does not work as of 01/05/2024 02:19am Eastern time US. Breaks right at load up with UEFI selected. Running under BIOS will allow you to run the installer, but it fails. Currently Hyprland does not work under other VMs without a lot of user intervention due to hotkey bindings withing the VM managers themselves.

Brightness worked after installing brightnessctl but the thing is, it only goes to 70% and 100%, can you please add a progressive increment/decrement for both volume and brightness keys?

    Hi everyone!
    If you are in the United States and are having problems with your keyboard, you need to change the layout for hyprland. To fix that, open the terminal and type:
    nano ~/config/hypr/conf/keyboard.conf
    Change the values accordingly and save it.
    kb_layout = us
    kb_variant = intl
    kb_model = pc105
    kb_options =
    kb_rules =
    follow_mouse = 1
    touchpad {
    natural_scroll = false
    sensitivity = 0 # -1.0 - 1.0, 0 means no modification.

    I was trying to automate hyprland instalation for nvidia and found that you can execute any command on vim startup. With this It is possible to easily guide the user by telling them which file is going to be opened (/etc/default/grub in my case) and then ask them if they want the instruction to be copied to vim's main register like, for example:
    vim -c "let @\"='GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT=nvidia_drm.modeset=1'" /etc/default/grub
    It is also possible to automate this with regex and all that but i it would be much more cumbersome to implement.

When I cloned it to Downloads and started install.sh, it installed normally but the config files were symlinked to $HOME/dotfiles folder which was empty. I copied the contents from Downloads/dotfiles to $HOME/dotfiles then it worked normally
    2. There was an error regarding color in conf. Sorry forgot the file. The config was for active title bar color.
    Would you mind answering few questions?

    Thanks for detailed installation guide. I've installed Arch on VM with installation script like in your video. But when I shutdown VM and set settings for 3D acceleration and OpenGL it doesn't pass login screen. When trying login as created user it flashes to screen where it prints "Could not connect to socket /run/seatd.sock" and "failed to open seat" and returns to login screen. Even though I selected polkit during installation. I've read that it might be related to hyprland and 3D acceleration settings with spice.
    I have two GPU's in host, both are from Nvidia. Quadro 600 for host and GTX 1050Ti for passthrough for VM's. When I use Virt manager to enable 3D acceleration and OpenGL with same exact settings from your video it loads with black screen but it's accessible via ssh.
    I've tried to start VM with QEMU commands via console with SDL graphics mode with --display sdl,gl=on option and it runs but gives that login error. I tried to use seatd and it is simmilar thing. Also what's interesting is that when running commands such as glxgears on a regular VM with same GPU it runs smoothly or glxinfo | grep "direct rendering" outputs "yes"
    Maybe there is some trick to make it work on a VM with Nvidia? Thanks in advance

      Hi. Thanks for your feedback. But in that case it's difficult for me to help because I cannot reproduce your setup on my computer because I'm using an AMD GPU. Are any other OS running with 3D acceleration in your Qemu setup?

    • @1ne336
      @1ne336 9 місяців тому

      I've specified one VM to use 1050Ti as a passthrough gpu, tried combinations of drivers for host and guest, proprietary and open source and it runs guest with black screen. Also all virtualization settings are enabled in bios. There are talks about nvidia cards for passthrough and 3D acceleration and seems that amd cards work better for that. Maybe it will work if arch is installed bare metal. Maybe it is a nice idea to dual boot arch on windows machine and try it with nvidia card. Anyway thank you for you feedback :) @@mylinuxforwork
