🪧🪧🪧 ANNOUNCEMENT 🪧🪧🪧

• This Repo does not contain Hyprland Dots or configs! Dotfiles can be checked here Hyprland-Dots . During installation, if you opt to copy pre-configured dots, it will be downloaded from that centralized repo.
• Hyprland-Dots use are constantly evolving / improving. you can check CHANGELOGS here Hyprland-Dots-Changelogs
• Since the Hyprland-Dots are evolving, some of the screenshots maybe old
• the wallpaper offered to be downloaded towards the end is from this REPO

Important

install a backup tool like snapper or timeshift. and Backup your system before installing hyprland using this script. This script does NOT include uninstallation of packages

Note

Main reason why I have not included an uninstallation script is simple. Some packages maybe already installed on your system by default. If I create an uninstall script with packages that I have set to install, you may end up a unrecoverable system.

EXPERIMENTAL UNINSTALL SCRIPT

• 04 July, 2024 - uninstall.sh . Note that it is experimental. I DO NOT GUARANTEE that it will not mess up your system. USE with caution.

Caution

Download this script on a directory where you have write permissions. ie. HOME. Or any directory within your home directory. Else script will fail

✨ Some notes on installation / Pre-requisites

• This install script was tested on Minimal Fedora using Fedora Everything Link
• This script is meant to install in any Fedora Work stations and its Spins.
• if starting from scratch, recommended spin to install is the Sway Spin. However, I have tested this script in Fedora Workstation (gnome), Plasma Spin and Sway
• I have not tested in any other spin. However, if you decided to try, recommend to install SDDM. Apart from GDM and SDDM, any other Login Manager may not work nor launch Hyprland. However, hyprland can be launched through tty by type Hyprland
• If you have nvidia, and wanted to use proprietary drivers, uninstall nouveau first (if installed). This script will be installing proprietary nvidia drivers and will not deal with removal of nouveau.

⚠️ WARNING! If you have GDM already as log-in manager, DO NOT install SDDM

• You will likely to encounter issues

✨ Costumize the packages and COPR Repos

• inside the install-scripts directory, you can edit 00-hypr-pkgs.sh, copr.sh, etc. Care though as the Hyprland Dots might not work properly

💫 SDDM and GTK Themes offered

• If you opted to install SDDM theme, here's the LINK
• If you opted to install GTK Themes, Icons here's the LINK & Bibata Cursor Modern Ice (assets directory)

🔔 NOTICE TO NVIDIA OWNERS

• by default it is installing the latest and newest nvidia drivers. If you have an older nvidia-gpu (GTX 800 series and older), check out nvidia-fedora website LINK and edit nvidia.sh in install-scripts directory to install proper gpu driver

Important

If you want to use nouveau driver, choose N when asked if you have nvidia gpu. This is because the nvidia installer part, it will blacklist nouveau. Hyprland will still be installed but it will skip blacklisting nouveau.

✨ to use this script

clone this repo (latest commit only) to reduce file size download by using git. Change directory, make executable and run the script

git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/JaKooLit/Fedora-Hyprland.git ~/Fedora-Hyprland
cd ~/Fedora-Hyprland
chmod +x install.sh
./install.sh

✨ for ZSH and OH-MY-ZSH installation

installer should auto change your default shell to zsh. However, if it does not, do this

chsh -s $(which zsh)
zsh
source ~/.zshrc

• reboot or logout
• by default agnoster theme is installed. You can find more themes from this OH-MY-ZSH-THEMES
• to change the theme, edit ~/.zshrc ZSH_THEME="desired theme"

✨ TO DO once installation done and dotfiles copied

• SUPER H for HINT or click on the waybar HINT! Button
• Head over to FAQ and TIPS
• NVIDIA users / owners, after installation, check THIS

🙋 Got a questions regarding the Hyprland Dots or configurations? 🙋

• Head over to wiki Link WIKI

⌨ Keybinds

• Keybinds CLICK

Tip

KooL's Dots v2.3.7 has a searchable keybind function via rofi. (SUPER SHIFT K) or right click the HINTS waybar button

🙋 👋 Having issues or questions?

• for the install part, kindly open issue on this repo
• for the Pre-configured Hyprland dots / configuration, submit issue here

🔧 Proper way to re-installing a particular script from install-scripts directory

• CD into Fedora-Hyprland Folder and then ran the below command.
• i.e. ./install-scripts/gtk-themes.sh - For reinstall GTK Themes or
• ./install-scripts/sddm.sh - For reinstall sddm

Important

DO NOT cd into install-scripts directory as script will most likely to fail

🛣️ Roadmap:

• possibly adding gruvbox themes, cursors, icons

❗ some known issues for nvidia

• reports from members of my discord, states that some users of nvidia are getting stuck on sddm login. credit to @Kenni Fix stated was

 while in sddm press ctrl+alt+F2 or F3
log into your account
`lspci -nn`, find the id of your nvidia card
`ls /dev/dri/by-path` find the matching id
`ls -l /dev/dri/by-path` to check where the symlink points to 
)

• add "env = WLR_DRM_DEVICES,/dev/dri/cardX" to the ENVvariables config ~/.config/hypr/UserConfigs/ENVariables.conf ; X being where the symlink of the gpu points to

• more info from the hyprland wiki Hyprland Wiki Link

• reports from a member of discord for Nvidia for additional env's

• remove # from the following env's on

env = GBM_BACKEND,nvidia-drm
env = WLR_RENDERER_ALLOW_SOFTWARE,1

❗ other known issues

Note

Auto start of Hyprland after login (no SDDM or GDM or any login managers)

• This was disabled a few days ago. (19 May 2024). This was because some users, after they used the Distro-Hyprland scripts with other DE (gnome-wayland or plasma-wayland), if they choose to login into gnome-wayland for example, Hyprland is starting.

• to avoid this, I disabled it. You can re-enable again by editing ~/.zprofile . Remove all the # on the first lines

• Note that Fedora 39 and older, waybar was not updated. Hyprland and older waybar build than 0.10.3, you will have no workspace

• ROFI issues (scaling, unexplained scaling etc). This is most likely to experience if you are installing on a system where rofi is currently installed. To fix it uninstall rofi and install rofi-wayland . sudo dnf autoremove rofi . Install rofi-wayland with sudo dnf install rofi-wayland. Rofi-wayland is compatible with x11 so no need to worry.
