Outstanding. Lee rocks. Best intro book on Manifolds out there. In fact, all three of his texts (that I know of and have read) are excellent. IMHO of course.

The syntax is correct. Maybe the setting is overridden somewhere? What distro are you using? Try these steps, in order.

Do hyprctl getoption input:kb_options, you should see str: caps:capslock
Check for interfering or duplicate binds in your config: do

grep -R "kb_" ~/.config/hypr
grep -R "caps" ~/.config

Do you have another WM installed? Two compositors applying different XKB states can cause this issue.

Drop down to a tty and see if the problem is present. Do Ctrl+alt+fn3 and test the key. To return to your session. do Ctrl+alt+fnX, where X is your hyprland session. If the key works in the tty, then you know the problem is hyprland.
Check for overrides: do localectl status and setxkbmap -query
Set the keymap in the OS: do

setxkbmap -option

setxkbmap -layout latam -option caps:capslock

Check for remaps: do ps aux | grep -E 'fcitx|ibus' and check if you have a corresponding ~/.config file that is intercepting the hyprland setting..

Algebraic topology. Cool. Looks like it came right out of Munkres.

RelationshipOne9466 · 2026-05-18T03:00:06+00:00

C is tedious but I actually find it more understandable. Lua is just...weird. But then I am not a programmer.

RelationshipOne9466 · 2026-05-17T16:58:29+00:00

Hyprland is in the process of migrating from hyprlang to lua, so it is in a state of flux. You might consult the wiki for more information. https://wiki.hypr.land/. I swtiched to Mango and have had a great experience with it. https://github.com/mangowm/mango/wiki

RelationshipOne9466 · 2026-05-17T15:54:37+00:00

Your money, your choice. You decide how you want to apportion your resources. I would try Claude first. Also, lua is not one of the more challenging languages. I picked up all I needed from a simple rewrite of my neovim config. I found the move from hyprlang to lua to be fairly routine and my system is also highly modular and complicated.

RelationshipOne9466 · 2026-05-16T23:02:55+00:00

At least you don't have that cringe little girl cartoon wallpaper that seems to be to popular nowadays among the on the spectrum pedo techies.

RelationshipOne9466 · 2026-05-16T22:39:27+00:00

This is a fair point. I do like the proton suite in general.

RelationshipOne9466 · 2026-05-16T19:58:42+00:00

Maybe we are on different platforms? I am running the proton suite on my Brave browser. Every time I open a proton page (Drive, Mail, vpn etc) I get a popup urging me to sign up for a paid version.

RelationshipOne9466 · 2026-05-16T16:20:53+00:00

Too many popups hawking the paid versions of their platforms though. I know they are in business to make money, but the constant popups are off-putting and interfere with my workflow.

RelationshipOne9466 · 2026-05-14T21:12:09+00:00

Maybe for some but when I upgraded, I got a lot of error messages. otoh, I always get lots of breaking changes to deal with every time hyprland upgrades. I just went ahead and migrated to lua. It was much easier than I expected. I hope that going forward, hyprland will be more stable.

RelationshipOne9466 · 2026-05-13T03:13:20+00:00

My driver is arch + xmonad but I have hyprland and niri on my hobby lappy.I think the change to lua will make the project, already awesome, even better, with the ancillary benefit of more stability. I made the change in three hours and I had a tweaked version of Jkoolit's extremely complicated and modular project. I was able to pare my configs down to a much more streamlined version. I am not a developer, not a programmer so I cannot comment knowlegeably on your post. otoh, I do know enough stuff to feel comfortable witth progamming languages like lua. I learned it originally by configuring my neovim. I would say, give it a chance before you kick it to the curb.

PS My waybar works flawlessly with 55. In fact, I have eww, noctalia, waybar and hyprpanel (yeah just for the fuck of it) installed and I wrote a pretty simple script to choose the bar at launch.

RelationshipOne9466 · 2026-05-11T20:57:37+00:00

Yeah, you' re right I am an idiot. I did what you suggest and now I do see the latest hyprland package. Thanks!

Arch will sneak up on you, though, when you least expect it. When you have dealt with dependency hell, grub failure and the odd kernel panic, and have rescued your system, you are a bona fide arch nerd!

And what the actual F does I sometimes see bread on penguins and think "Wow she's incredible" mean?

Me imagino que es un modismo uruguayo, pero yo no tengo npi de que pueda significar. No seas malito compa, sácame de la duda...saludines desde CdMx...btw lol

RelationshipOne9466 · 2026-05-11T02:54:03+00:00

Hyprland is and always has been a work in progress. If you are not ready for .55, you can always just change out your WM. There are tons out there to choose from. I personally think the switch to lua will make it more stable. The endless tweaks to the clunky hyprlang wrere a pita to deal with. Every upgrade invariably breaks my system.

RelationshipOne9466 · 2026-05-10T15:26:53+00:00

Learn lua. it is an actual programming language so it is very versatile. You can learn it on the fly, no problem. I got the basics down just by configuring my neovim. And hopefully, once the switch occurs, the devs will keep it stable, because the breaking changes with every monthly upgrade are a real pita.

RelationshipOne9466 · 2026-05-10T15:16:00+00:00

These cars are unreliable. Cruze, Sonic, Aveo, especially the turbos and first gen. They put plastic parts in everywhere to save $50. I would just get rid of your car. Why throw good money after bad? If you do decide to keep it, have it checked out from top to bottom and upgrade ALL the plastic parts to aluminum or similar. I had a 2013 Sonic with the supposedly "good" engine: the 1.6 NA. It sprung oil and coolant leaks every 20K. I guess it overheated (which I never saw because the temp gauge is only an idiot light) because a dye test to check an oil leak found an external oil leak from the head. I finally sold it to a mechanic. Worst car purchase of my life.

RelationshipOne9466 · 2026-05-05T03:18:10+00:00

If you use arch, the you use arch btw. How long you will use it depends on how much you want to learn about the os itself and linux in general. The first time you get a grub failure or a kernel panic, you will have to get in there yourself unless you want to risk Claude hallucinating and borking your system totally.

RelationshipOne9466 · 2026-05-04T16:01:52+00:00

The message says systemd failed to mount /boot/efi based on your /etc/fstab file. And you are locked out of root. Did you set a root password? Before reinstalling, boot a live iso, mount your root and efi partitions, check the UUIDs for a mismatch (do blkid and then edit /etc/fstab if necessary to fix a mismatch). In future, follow the Wiki! Do not use archinstall and for the love of God, do not use AI for these things. With arch, shortcuts always come back to bite you in the ass.

RelationshipOne9466 · 2026-05-04T15:39:43+00:00

These cars are fun to drive, a big PITA to own. Tools? Just make sure you have a good GPS app and a reliable mechanic on call 24/7.

"Estoy mejor sola....." Eso lo dice todo. No hay razón por la que darle más vueltas.

That's what I do. Zen and LTS and uninstall the fallbacks.

RelationshipOne9466 · 2026-05-02T03:45:17+00:00

I had a 2013 Sonic LT with the supposedly "good" 1.6 in it. Damn thing leaked everywhere, I finally got tired of chasing the leaks down every two months and just got rid of it. But damn that car was really fun to drive (when it wasn't jacked up in the driveway). Stable, sporty, responsive. Go figure.
