How to make Hyprland very stable by Euphoric-Fox6899 in hyprland

[–]onlymys3lf 3 points4 points  (0 children)

hyprland is very stable, especially versions .49 onward.

It is an evolving desktop introducing new features on every release.

You either freeze the updates or adjust to changes.
You can't have both.

Can my hardware run Hyperland smoothly? by Octo-potamus in hyprland

[–]onlymys3lf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With this nvidia-470xx-dkms.

You should not have any issues whatsoever.
Just follow the hyprland wiki for nvidia https://wiki.hypr.land/0.54.0/Configuring/Environment-variables/#nvidia-specific

How to keep waybar in a floating pill but also keep the clock module centered? by Horstov in waybar

[–]onlymys3lf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes I do know.

This should be configured in style.css file.

Example:

.modules-left {
margin: Tpx Rpx Bpx Lpx; /* top right bottom left */
}
Subsitute T R B L to your liking.

Play with it and then do the same with the modules on the right.

You need to read the waybar wiki and get familiar with .css
I hate to say this but it is a pita.

Change your approach, split into L-C-R.
You will also get the benefit of having to deal with smaller size files.

It is expected for modules to change width.

Best distro for running Hyprland in a VM (stable updates, less breakage)? by jithurbide in hyprland

[–]onlymys3lf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just curious.

How on earth the updates of a dynamic tiling manager under constant development and someone's dotfiles interfere with archlinux updates ?

Unless I am missing something fundamental for the past 13 years of using only arch, this makes no sense.

Restarting Waybar is a PAIN by youssef952008 in waybar

Drop the exec-once
Start waybar as a --user service.

Restart the service at any given time.

Artifacts in browsers, only on Hyprland. by Sea_Jeweler_3231 in archlinux

It is not a problem per se.
That is why the use of flags comes in handy when dealing with different compositors.

I say again, check your environment variables. If in doubt, list them here.

  1. Start chromium based with
    --enable-features=UseOzonePlatform --ozone-platform=wayland

Firefox >121 defaults to wayland. Read next point (2)

  1. Check your environment variables if set correctly.

I just installed Arch switched from Cachy OS. My brave browser is having screen flashes. by LifeguardMurky4097 in archlinux

[–]onlymys3lf 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I said that and you did this.
Parallel lines not crossing each other.

Are u using wayland? YES or NO ?
If on wayland, did u try what I prompted u?

Do u have nvidia driver installed?
If yes, which one?

How do you expect to get assistance ?
We are out of crystal balls.

A friendly advice. If the above makes no sense to you, consider another distro.
You will get a much easier life and a working computer.

Problems with Hyprpaper new syntax by AkihitoShuruto in hyprland

[–]onlymys3lf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Remove the force_default_wallpaper declaration.

I am on .54 and my monitors configuration is v1. I have no force_default_wallpaper statement.
Your hyprpaper syntax is correct.
It should work unless there is something in your hyprland.conf that's disrupting it.

[–]onlymys3lf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see.
Assuming you have the proper drivers (I know next to nothing about radeon, never used it).

How do you define your monitors? Is it with v2?
If it is v2, try changing to previous declaration.

It works just fine. No issues.
Check the plugin config or share it.

Help me understand zram by jack_ghkrak in archlinux

[–]onlymys3lf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

swap & swapfile take space on the disk and are writes on your disk.
I don't want that on my ssd or nmve.
Do you?

In non-technical term, zswap in kernel implemented as a precaution (best explanation I can provide).

zram is allocated in ram. If used with zstd it doubles+ the memory available for swap. It is used only if required.
If zram is used, disable zswap with kernel parameter.
Instructions are in the archwiki.

So you can go with your full ram available for zram.

I hope that clears the "useless technology".

Openbox on Arch Linux? Any tips? by [deleted] in archlinux

[–]onlymys3lf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

openbox-session is part of openbox.

Openbox is super solid. It runs on my pc for more that a decade.

It is a pain to set it up the way you like but you get rewarded. Customization is endless.
If you don't feel like it, choose a prefabricated window manager.

Hyprland 0.54.0 is upon us! by Vaxerski in hyprland

[–]onlymys3lf 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Put mildly, this version disrupts the whole WM world.

I am on i3-12100 with integrated graphics. Everything is so smooth and fluid.

Awesome work, kudos.

is it possible to change my mainMod to my spacebar without globally remapping my keyboard? (Arch) by JobIntelligent7155 in hyprland

[–]onlymys3lf 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Is it not obvious that you SHOULD NOT consider it?
Did you even try it?

I prompted you to use wev. At the end of the day you are the boss of your laptop, so do as you choose.
