hyprland  

This repository uses the BlueBuild template and creates an opinionated image for the Hyprland Window Manager.

Caution

Experimental image, not yet fully ready for daily use; bugs still need to be fixed, and some files need to be added.

What was changed?

• Set a nice SDDM
• Set a nice Waybar
• Set a nice Rofi
• Add a reasonable suite of tools that are needed to have a working desktop with a wayland compositor
• Creates an opinionated configuration for Hyprland and tools to work out of the box

Customization

If you want to add your own customizations on top of this images, you are advised strongly against forking. Instead, create a repo for your own image by using the BlueBuild template, then change your base-image to this image. This will allow you to apply your customizations to hyprland in a concise and maintainable way, without the need to constantly sync with upstream.

Installation

Available Images

• hyprland
• hyprland-dx
• hyprland-nvidia
• hyprland-dx-nvidia

dx images contain developer packages and tools, here are some of the packages includeds: vscode, direnv, gh and virt-manager (for virtual machines). If you want to see the complete list, see this file.

To rebase an existing atomic Fedora installation to the latest build:

Important

The only supported tag is latest.

Important

The two reboots described below are not optional. During installation, the initial boot into hyprland will provision the required sddm user. This is a one time step, all subsequent boots will succeed.

• First rebase to the unsigned image, to get the proper signing keys and policies installed:

  rpm-ostree rebase ostree-unverified-registry:ghcr.io/heus-sueh/$IMAGE_NAME:latest

• Reboot to complete the rebase:

  systemctl reboot

• Then rebase to the signed image, like so:

  rpm-ostree rebase ostree-image-signed:docker://ghcr.io/heus-sueh/$IMAGE_NAME:latest

• Reboot again to complete the installation

  systemctl reboot

The latest tag will automatically point to the latest build. That build will still always use the Fedora version specified in recipe.yml, so you won't get accidentally updated to the next major version.

Post-install

Nvidia

If you are using an nvidia image, run this after installation:

ujust configure-nvidia
> Set needed kernel arguments

Nvidia optimus laptop

If you are using an nvidia image on an optimus laptop, run this after installation:

ujust configure-nvidia-optimus

ISO

If build on Fedora Atomic, you can generate an offline ISO with the instructions available here. These ISOs cannot unfortunately be distributed on GitHub for free due to large sizes, so for public projects something else has to be used for hosting.
