My personal configuration files for getting my machine set up. My setup uses a lenovo laptop with an intel cpu and a docking station and one external display (aka Clamshell Mode). I use sway as a windowmanager under wayland with bemenu, kitty, pcmanfm, zsh, neovim and other stuff.
The arch linux installation is documented in (installarchlinux.sh).
The packages for the installed system can be found in (packages.sh).
./installarchlinux.sh
./packages.sh
The only necessary files are sway's config file (.config/sway/config) and the environment adjustments in /etc/environment. Other files in (.config/sway/) are optional.
To disable support for xwayland/backwards compatibility add this line to your sway config:
# Disable support for xwayland
xwayland disable
If you want to have backwards compatibility enabled in sway, add this to your sway config:
# Enable support for xwayland
xwayland enable
Note: xorg-server etc. are not needed the be installed. The only package needed is "xorg-server-xwayland" from the AUR. See: https://www.archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/xorg-server-xwayland
