πŸ’₯ Backups Created starting Hyprland-Dots v2.2

  • Starting v2.2, a more robust and better backup functionality introduce. It will now backup with timestamps. Make sure to check and clean-up the backups created in ~/Pictures and ~/.config (Especially the ~/Pictures/wallpapers-backups as this folder takes alot of space) before re-running either the distro-hyprland install scripts or Hyprland-Dots auto copy function.

🟩 🟩 FOr OpenSUSE TW

  • OpenSUSE has the habit of installing EXTRA Unneeded STUFF during upgrade... if you ran an upgrade and if you noticed that there is an update on waybar, Opensuse will also install SWAY, SWAYBG, all apps related to SWAY.
  • To stop that, remove waybar first (sudo zypper rm --clean-deps waybar) and then ran an upgrade. Before restart, reinstall waybar again (sudo zypper in --no-recommends waybar). If you dont add --no-recommends, it will install also sway.

❎ πŸ‰ For Nvidia GPU users

  • After installation, only few ENV have been activated. Edit and play around ~/.config/hypr/UserConfigs/ENVariables.con . I suggest to edit ONE by ONE and atleast logout, or better reboot. Sometimes Hyprland may crash or wont let you log in.
  • If you experienced that Hyprland wont start after changes, you can revert with the changes. Be prepared and dont panic. If you are in login manager and wont let you login, CTRL ALT F2 or F3, log in then change the file again. Start hyprland by typing Hyprland . Keep doing this until you find the right configuration for your system
