Hyprland on EndeavourOS and Arch based distro with improved install script + nvidia support

26-OCT-2023
As part of my code clean up so I can also maintain the dots properly, all my Arch-install scripts will from this repo
And all the dots will be from here

To install Hyprland from new repo
cd Arch-Hyprland

------------------------------------------------------------------

To be clear, this is a slight improvement of my previous installer featured on this video

b.) auto enabling of env=WLR_NO_HARDWARE_CURSORS,1 once nvidia-gpu is detected.
c.) added some additional features like switching to dark and light wallpaper, dual panel waybar layout..

This script is intended for Arch but I wanted to show you guys that you can install in any Arch based distro. I dont know if it will work on Manjaro as manjaro have a different repo and most AUR apps on Manjaro tend to break.

### ✨ If upgrading from Hyprland-v2,
- easy way, ran script, script will create back-up of your files and folders (which needed for the config-dots) so you can easily copy over.
- long way, copy the scripts in config/hypr/scripts and copy to your ~/.config/hypr/scripts . Make sure to make them executable after copied. By running chmod +x filename..
- copy the waybar folder in config/hypr/waybar to your ~/.config/hypr/waybar
- copy the wallpapers to your ~/Pictures . Some scripts are checking those folder. If not, modify the scripts changeWallpaper, changeWallpaper2, dark-light-mode, wallpaper-switcher in your ~/.config/hypr/scripts to your actual wallpapers.

You're doing a very good job with your hyprland scripts. Congratulations :D

[zamnell]

Thanks for your videos. Made it very easy for me to install Arch with Hyprland. I made a few changes in your config regarding multiple monitors and keybindings but other than that the base config is really nice and probably something I couldn't replicate (talking mainly about the Waybar config). Thanks again!

My "go to" script for installing Hyprland, amazing work, thank you so much!

[deoncole-xc]

Coolest guy yet, soft spoken and very knowledgeable, enjoying your work thanks am on v2 gonna upgrade to this one hope i don't get any hicops 😁

[Gasterboi]

Thx bro, I’ve been always wanting to use Hyprland but most distros for me never worked, so I tried endeavor with your script and got past with no errors.

Thanks alot

[michelepitton]

Dude, thank you very much for this work... everything works perfectly :D
(im a nvidia user)

[Aoubaker]

Oh bro i really love your script, it has everything i want, I'll test it on Arcolinux

[JustAnotherGuy]

dam this worked better than the original guide, congrats!

I installed arch linux with Hyprland V3 that was really very painful and After seeing this 2nd legend Im gonna say

[Ja.KooLit]

DO not use this script on Manjaro. I do apologized to @crusader_ but I also thanked him for having the courage to tried out. It broke his Manjaro. Manjaro have a different structure and manjaro's handling of aur packages is also not good.

[MuhammadAwais-msse]

❤ a lot of love and installing hypr it's beauty is amazing

[LoneShot]

Good video mate, i just erased manjaro and installed endeavouros for this one. I miserably failed to do it in arch linux cuz i have still a lot to learn about it ;-;.

On 18:05, it doesn't show how you got to the UI that got to add a new panel to the bottom. How am I supposed to add the panel on the bottom of the screen?

30:35 last Hyprland video? why? :( I like your scripts man... you gave us choices

Anyway, it seems like I have to re-install again. Im using your V2... is there a way to update without reinstalling it?

[lettermeem]

no way, I use endeavouros with nvidia gpu and you have the same wallpaper as me

[Little-bird-told-me]

I was just wondering if you and Sol knew each other and there you go you told all about it. Actually I am following both of your script and you both have done a great job. I like your script a little more because Sol has his keyboard shortcut mapped in an unusual way. Eg super+q to open kitty. Ofcourse it can be changed. Also for some reason you script install much faster. I have both of yours scripts in separate drives and keep hoping between them. All the best with your work. What 200 mb per day of data. Looks like you are in a submarine 😂

[techvishnuyt]

does your latest scripts like hyprland v3 work with endevouros

[deoncole-xc]

Big big question🤔 ever thought of doing a project on (newm window manager?) haven't seen any out there besides archcraft

[jeffryalfredo]

Hey bro, your work is awesome and I've used it for my Endeavour OS, but idk which buttons you pressed for the little menu at 18:09, may I know which buttons you pressed for that?
