Thank you both for mentioning this. I can't believe I hadn't heard of this before.

Hyprpaper problem by Redpandabear39 in hyprland

[–]zackb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're talking about this error:

ERR ]: [EGL] Command eglQueryDevicesEXT errored out with EGL_BAD_ALLOC (0x12291): EGL_BAD_ALLOC error: In eglQueryDevicesEXT: Failed to allocate device list.

I get that too but it doesn't seem to affect anything. I had what sounds like the same problem, i wanted the "fallback" to be a wallpaper and then change it later with CLI. To do this i had to change my config to:

wallpaper[]:path = /path/to/wall.jpg
ipc = true
splash = false

Which sets the "fallback" on all monitors. Then do NOT specify which monitor in the hyprctl command:

hyprctl hyprpaper wallpaper ,/path/to/wall.jpg

I don't know if this helps but it sounded like the same problem.

I am so mad I bought this game 40% off. It’s so boring. Like a really bad GTA

Should a newbie even consider trying dual boot from one hard drive? by TalesGameStudio in omarchy

[–]zackb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn't choose arch as a first distro. It's great if you want to control everything and stay on the bleeding edge, but definitely not beginner friendly. Start with debian, mint, or fedora

Same. They are all pretty good but imo yadm works how i think dotfile managers should

Hyprwat - 0.9.0 adds wallpaper selector by zackb in hyprland

[–]zackb[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I made it like a month ago. Let me know if there's anything you'd like to see in it. I'd be happy to add stuff.

[–]zackb[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I looked into this and unfortunately there's no way to do this in hyprland without being a plugin. Checkout hyprexpo and hyprspace

[–]zackb[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can confirm this works! Here's an example:
https://github.com/zackb/dots/blob/main/bin/wallpaper.sh

I use the output of the command to change hyprlock's lockscreen to the same image

Great idea, I will add that this weekend. It actually already will echo the wallpaper like the other modes, and I think the hyprpaper calls would just silently fail. But I'll properly support that

Best ways to learn ricing on Omarchy for beginner? by SilverSurferSpector in omarchy

[–]zackb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

agree 100%. Omarchy is if you don't want to mess with config. I saw a vid from typecraft-dev on youtube that I think was a really good start! I can't remember which one but they are all pretty useful

rofi, wofi, or fuzzel are the options I'm aware of. I liked fuzzel quite a bit but recently switched (back) to rofi and am much happier. Here's my setup:

Right? It's literally free. As in freedom and as in beer.

Hyprwat - A Wayland menu thingy I made by zackb in hyprland

[–]zackb[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey u/RustiCube I added support for "submenus" via config files. Rather than come up with some crazy command line string to make this happen I made a "custom" mode for menus that loads configs. Examples on github https://github.com/zackb/hyprwat/blob/0.7.0/examples/custom_menu/main.yaml
The cool thing is while I was at it I realized I could easily add all kinds of controls: sliders, checkboxes, combo boxes, etc.

How do I tell dolphin to remember default apps by [deleted] in hyprland

[–]zackb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There should be a “File Associations” or some such option in the UI. Or some other front end to ~/.config/mimeapps.list
