[Issue] Fresh Arch install and nothing is working? #468

pepperonipizzah · 2024-05-02T22:22:33Z

I have read the Usage and the Troubleshooting pages of the wiki
I have made sure that both my config and system packages are up to date
Linux distro: ARCH LINUX

The issue

After resolving an issue with installing hyprland-git that prevented install.sh from installing the dotfiles. i got into hyprland from tty and ags did not boot up at all. im also getting a hyprland config error. cant ss because it wont let me.
config error in file hyprland/colors.conf at line 9 rgba() expects length of 8 characters or 4 comma separated values

here is what is output when ags is ran manually with pkill ags; ags

fonts don't seem to be installed correctly either in terminal. there is no wallpaper. basically nothing works. this is my first time installing so i dont really know what its really supposed to look like. I've tried looking at other Issues and people seem to be having all these issues today. Is there a way I can use a slightly older build?

it's not meant to do this right.. 😭

idiom444 · 2024-05-02T23:52:21Z

I have the same issue. To attempt to solve this i have tried these solutions:

The first made some of the widgets load but they are very broken and i also have the same error message you see on your screen. Fresh arch install.

In case it is relevant i had this issue as well #461
I ended up skipping hyprland-git and running yay -S hyprland

pepperonipizzah · 2024-05-02T23:53:37Z

yeah it seems completely broken...

pepperonipizzah · 2024-05-03T00:39:42Z

faq says that hyprland git is used because end-4 prefers it i think. hyprland is not the issue. I don't really have the time to troubleshoot, kinda nuked my old setup because I was sick of troubleshooting lol...

I can only presume that it's something to do with the python 3.12 update and packages breaking. it's a byproduct of bleeding edge.

hope it gets fixed soon, let me know if I can provide more details :)

arqueon · 2024-05-03T03:08:28Z

Same for me, I fixed the hyprland compilation, also there was a problem wit ags, I finally installed it, install finished but only a black screen, no toolbars, but I was able to run foot via Supert-T, but not any much more. I tried the same install with endeavour-gnome and pure arch linux.

had the same issue yesterday,reinstalled the exact same way and the issue solved by itself,i think its a problem with package versions.
if you have errors while compiling,maybe try using chaotic-aur,saves a ton of time

Could you explain how to use that?

idiom444 · 2024-05-03T23:44:26Z

I have the same issue. To attempt to solve this i have tried these solutions:
* [[Issue] ags not running  #350](https://github.com/end-4/dots-hyprland/issues/350) add colormode.txt

* [[Issue] Changing wallpaper or changing things from sidebar live config causes loss of styling #452](https://github.com/end-4/dots-hyprland/issues/452)

* [[Issue] Ags & cursor related problem #465](https://github.com/end-4/dots-hyprland/issues/465)
The first made some of the widgets load but they are very broken and i also have the same error message you see on your screen. Fresh arch install.

In case it is relevant i had this issue as well #461 I ended up skipping hyprland-git and running yay -S hyprland

So i have tried fresh install a couple times since my last comment. The latest time i went through the manual install instructions and still get the same situation. I managed to build hyperland-git this time instead of hyperland and all the dependencies were successful.

Here is my pkill ags;ags:

Hey I have been having this issue for some time now and my issue was not having a wallpaper set. CTRL + SUPER + T doesn't have any files there so I never set a wallpaper and i guess the rest of the setup needs one for its colors. Took me a crazy amount of time to figure this out lol.

end-4 · 2024-05-04T16:18:14Z

looks like i need a crazier way to tell people to pick a wall then

end-4 · 2024-05-04T16:23:50Z

idiom444 · 2024-05-04T16:27:18Z

Yeah I tried that initially but there were no wallpapers in the folder that opens so i kind of glossed over it for some time.

Downloaded some random picture and solved it.

H0mire · 2024-05-04T17:04:29Z

Yeah, having some default picture from Hyprland that automatically loads would be convenient.

iliass-ess · 2024-05-05T23:30:35Z

The thing is the bar and widgets won't render without picking a wallpaper, so there is no way for new users to see that notification. A default wallpaper would be great!

pepperonipizzah · 2024-05-07T21:18:28Z

thanks for all the help. i really wanted to get this working because i love the look to these dotfiles. i would like to delve into the modules of ags but thats for another day.

i figured out that a wallpaper must be set after trial and error and around the same time people figured that out too lol.

A default wallpaper would be appreciated as i was completely clueless as to why it was not working on a fresh install. i was convinced the dotfiles were broken or smth.

Thanks for all the input i appreciate it.
