Yesterday, I spent half an hour trying to figure out why SDDM wasn’t seeing /usr/share/wayland-sessions/sway.desktop before I realised that the reason it wasn’t showing up in the menu was because I hadn’t installed any fonts; so it was there, but it was invisible.
Yesterday, I spent half an hour trying to figure out why SDDM wasn’t seeing
/usr/share/wayland-sessions/sway.desktop
before I realised that the reason it wasn’t showing up in the menu was because I hadn’t installed any fonts; so it was there, but it was invisible.How do you even manage to install a graphical sessions without installing anything that depends on a font
% sudo xbps-install -Su sddm sway wayland
% sudo ln -s /etc/sv/sddm /var/service
% sudo sv up sddm
i’ve faced this issue so much and i still haven’t found a solution for it other than to have my dm and de in my xinitrc
is there actually a seamless fix (or is the xinitrc the seamless way lmao)
