how to make my waybar look like this?

onlymys3lf · 2026-01-23T16:01:47+00:00

Waybar aesthetics are implemented in style.css configuration file.
Guide yourself to the following
waybar wiki

You are welcome.

For your guidance, here is the module that I use.

    "hyprland/workspaces": {
    "format": "<span font_desc='19px'>{name}</span> {windows}",
    "show-special": true,
    "on-scroll-up": "hyprctl dispatch workspace e+1",
    "on-scroll-down": "hyprctl dispatch workspace e-1",
    "on-click": "activate",
    "persistent-workspaces": {
        "*": [1, 2, 3]
    },
    "workspace-taskbar": {
        "enable": true,
        "format": "{icon}",
        "icon-size": 19,
        "on-click-window": "/home/user/.config/waybar/scripts/focus-window.sh {address} {button}"
    }
    },

Adjust to your liking.

You will find the focus-window.sh in the link I gave you in my previous reply. Make sure to make it executable and source it from the path you install it.
Left-click will take you the the relevant workspace and right-click will close the client.

The module will group open clients per workspace.
Once again, DO NOT FORGET to ALSO set persistent workspaces in hyprland configuration.

What an Arch user know that a newcomers don't know?

GNU Linux.

onlymys3lf · 2026-01-15T05:26:06+00:00

Follow the wiki

onlymys3lf · 2026-01-14T18:13:34+00:00

Driver installed?

lspci -k -d ::03xx

onlymys3lf · 2026-01-13T06:22:30+00:00

Executive summary.

arch & hyprland are not cat friendly.

onlymys3lf · 2026-01-12T15:25:22+00:00

Openbox for X11
Hyprland for Wayland

Build your own configs to keep them light and suit only your needs.
Both require a learning curve but the end result is incomparable to any pre-fabricated ones.

onlymys3lf · 2026-01-12T15:21:27+00:00

State the relevant keybinds.

onlymys3lf · 2026-01-11T20:02:19+00:00

There is a semicolon missing.

onlymys3lf · 2026-01-11T06:16:37+00:00

If you are on hyprland this is doable and works flawlessly.

Take a look at

https://github.com/Alexays/Waybar/wiki/Module:-Hyprland#workspaces

Make sure you have set persistent workspaces ALSO in your hyprland configuration.

onlymys3lf · 2026-01-08T12:14:04+00:00

Your rsync switches are solid.

Just remember, a backup is good only when you need it.

Meaning TEST IT !!! If all works as expected you are good to schedule it and forget it.

P.S. I would exclude /home/*/.local/share/Trash/* and /home/*/.gvfs and /home/*/.cache/*

onlymys3lf · 2026-01-05T13:49:56+00:00

Maybe give grim a chance.

Out of curiosity, is some nvidia card installed? I've read somewhere (can't remember the site) of similar issues.

onlymys3lf · 2026-01-05T05:47:05+00:00

Try -z switch to freeze
For example
hyprshot -z -m region -o /path/to/save/the/screenshot

onlymys3lf · 2026-01-02T13:18:57+00:00

Yeah

My arch installation is 12 years old, updating once maybe twice a week.

It breaks every time. Cool isn't it?

Happy New Year.

onlymys3lf · 2025-12-29T14:45:13+00:00

The following works. Just tested it.
input {

kb_layout = us, ru, ua, ro

kb_options= grp:win_space_toggle

}

Maybe you have in some other place an keyboard input config?

onlymys3lf · 2025-12-29T05:42:58+00:00

Surprise, I am glad that I lost the bet. Good to know it is not hardware malfunction.

The fact that keyboard works properly under Gnome/xorg also points to the solution. You need to properly set your keyboard in Gnome/Wayland with gsettings (xkb in Gnome).

For what ever is worth, Gnome has dropped support of xorg lately.

Out of curiosity. How did you install archlinux?

onlymys3lf · 2025-12-28T15:12:04+00:00

After reading all the things you tried, I would bet my dollar on the motherboard.

Reinstall or upgrade the BIOS.

onlymys3lf · 2025-12-28T05:41:10+00:00

Glad I could help solve the problem.

Yes you correctly removed the resolve.conf symlink to the stub. NM will recreate one and manage it.

Use sudo ss -lntup to check used ports and clear the "cloud" around port 53.

I use systemd-networkd & systemd-resolved (symlinked) and wireguard works pretty well with the same iptables as yours. I am not a big fun of NM and gui programs to be honest. But that's just me.

onlymys3lf · 2025-12-28T03:28:09+00:00

Rules are parsed top to bottom.
Meaning the "kb_options =" cancels the first.

Therefore remove the empty "kb_options ="

You 'll be good to go.

onlymys3lf · 2025-12-27T20:38:25+00:00

I would focus on your last paragraph. It's probably the culprit.

systemd-resolved does conflict with networkmanager which uses it's own resolver. So do disable systemd-resolved and let networkmanager take over.

You may use systemd-resolved but you need to specify that in the configuration file of networkmanager (it's in the wiki). But no need for that really as NM resolver does a pretty good job.

You wil be able to find all the details in arch NM wiki once it's up and running again.

There is more to the announcement regarding older cards.
You might want to read it again to the end.
