# Foreword
|
|
|
|
Due to their proprietary nature, Nvidia GPUs have limited compatibility with
|
|
Hyprland. If you want to try Hyprland on Nvidia regardless
|
|
(many people have reported successes), follow the [Nvidia page](../../Nvidia)
|
|
after installing Hyprland.
|
|
|
|
## Distros
|
|
|
|
Arch, NixOS and openSUSE Tumbleweed are very supported. For any other distro
|
|
(not based on Arch/Nix) you might have varying amounts of success. However,
|
|
since Hyprland is extremely bleeding-edge, distros like Pop!\_OS, Ubuntu, etc.
|
|
might have **major** issues running Hyprland.
|
|
|
|
## Installation
|
|
|
|
Installing Hyprland is very easy. Either you install it from your local package
|
|
provider (if they provide pkgs for Hyprland) or you install/build it yourself.
|
|
|
|

|
|
This project is under development and is constantly
|
|
changing. If you want to keep up to date with the latest commits, please
|
|
consider updating your packages with `yay -Syu --devel`, or your other preferred
|
|
package manager.

**WARNING:** I do not maintain any packages. If they are broken, try building

from source first.

Hyprland is part of factory, starting with snapshot 20230411. To install it simply use zypper
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
sudo zypper in hyprland
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
or install the "hyprland" package via YaST2 Software.
|
|
|
|
Alternatively, you can also follow the instructions under ["Manual (Manual Build)"](#manual-manual-build)
|
|
to build Hyprland yourself.
|
|
|
|
Note: _Hyprland is not available for Leap, as most libraries (and compiler) that Hyprland needs are too old._

### Manual (Releases, Linux-only)
|
|
|
|
Download the most recent release.
|
|
|
|
copy the binary (Hyprland) to `/usr/bin/`.
|
|
|
|
copy hyprctl to `/usr/bin/`.
|
|
|
|
copy the wlroots .so (`libwlroots.so.XX032`) to `/usr/lib/`.
|
|
|
|
copy the desktop entry (`examples/hyprland.desktop`) to
|
|
`/usr/share/wayland-sessions/`
|
|
|
|
the example config is in `examples/hyprland.conf`.
|
|
|
|
For updating later on, you can overwrite the binaries (hyprctl, hyprland and
|
|
libwlroots), you don't need to update anything else.
|
|
|
|
### Manual (Manual Build)
|
|
|
|
_Arch dependencies_:
|
|
|
|
```plain
|
|
yay -S gdb ninja gcc cmake meson libxcb xcb-proto xcb-util xcb-util-keysyms libxfixes libx11 libxcomposite xorg-xinput libxrender pixman wayland-protocols cairo pango seatd libxkbcommon xcb-util-wm xorg-xwayland libinput libliftoff libdisplay-info
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
_(Please make a pull request or open an issue if any packages are missing from the list)_
|
|
|
|
_openSUSE dependencies_:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
zypper in gcc-c++ git meson cmake "pkgconfig(cairo)" "pkgconfig(egl)" "pkgconfig(gbm)" "pkgconfig(gl)" "pkgconfig(glesv2)" "pkgconfig(libdrm)" "pkgconfig(libinput)" "pkgconfig(libseat)" "pkgconfig(libudev)" "pkgconfig(pango)" "pkgconfig(pangocairo)" "pkgconfig(pixman-1)" "pkgconfig(vulkan)" "pkgconfig(wayland-client)" "pkgconfig(wayland-protocols)" "pkgconfig(wayland-scanner)" "pkgconfig(wayland-server)" "pkgconfig(xcb)" "pkgconfig(xcb-icccm)" "pkgconfig(xcb-renderutil)" "pkgconfig(xkbcommon)" "pkgconfig(xwayland)" glslang-devel Mesa-libGLESv3-devel "pkgconfig(xcb-errors)"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
(this should also work on RHEL/Fedora if you remove `Mesa-libGLESv3-devel` and `pkgconfig(xcb-errors)`)
|
|
|
|
_FreeBSD dependencies_:
|
|
|
|
```plain
|
|
pkg install git pkgconf gmake gcc evdev-proto cmake wayland-protocols wayland libglvnd libxkbcommon libinput cairo pango pixman libxcb
|
|
pkg install meson jq `pkg rquery %dn wlroots` hwdata libdisplay-info libliftoff
|
|
export CC=gcc CXX=g++ LDFLAGS="-static-libstdc++ -static-libgcc"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Please note Hyprland builds `wlroots`. Make sure you have the dependencies of
|
|
wlroots installed, you can make sure you have them by installing wlroots
|
|
separately (Hyprland doesn't mind)
|
|
|
|
Also note that Hyprland uses the C++23 standard, so both your compiler
|
|
and your C++ library has to support that (`gcc>=12.1.0` or `clang>=15`).
|
|
On Clang-based systems libc++ may be used by default, so until libc++
|
|
supports C++23 you have to pass `-stdlib=libstdc++` or switch to GCC.
|
|
|
|
### CMake (recommended)
|
|
|
|
```Plain
|
|
git clone --recursive https://github.com/hyprwm/Hyprland
|
|
cd Hyprland
|
|
sudo make install
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Meson
|
|
|
|
```plain
|
|
meson _build
|
|
ninja -C _build
|
|
ninja -C _build install --tags runtime,man
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Refer to [Debugging](../../Contributing-and-Debugging) to see how to build &
|
|
debug.
|
|
|
|
## Crash on launch
|
|
|
|
See [Crashes and Bugs](../../Crashes-and-Bugs).
|
|
|
|
## Custom installation (legacy renderer, etc)
|
|
|
|
cd into the hyprland repo.
|
|
|
|
for legacy renderer:
|
|
|
|
```plain
|
|
sudo make clear && sudo make config && make protocols && make legacyrenderer && sudo cp ./build/Hyprland /usr/bin && sudo cp ./example/hyprland.desktop /usr/share/wayland-sessions
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
_please note the legacy renderer may not support some graphical features._
|
|
<br/><br/> Any other config: (replace \[PRESET\] with your preset, `release`
|
|
`debug` `legacyrenderer` `legacyrendererdebug`)
|
|
|
|
```plain
|
|
sudo make clear && sudo make config && make protocols && make [PRESET] && sudo cp ./build/Hyprland /usr/bin && sudo cp ./example/hyprland.desktop /usr/share/wayland-sessions
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Custom Build flags
|
|
|
|
To apply custom build flags, you'll have to ditch make.
|
|
|
|
Supported custom build flags:
|
|
|
|
```plain
|
|
NO_XWAYLAND - Removes XWayland support
|
|
NO_SYSTEMD - Removes systemd dependencies
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
How to?
|
|
|
|
Go to the root repo.
|
|
|
|
Clean before everything and config the root:
|
|
|
|
```plain
|
|
make clear && sudo make config && make protocols
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Then, configure CMake:
|
|
|
|
```plain
|
|
mkdir -p build && cmake --no-warn-unused-cli -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE:STRING=Release -D<YOUR_FLAG>:STRING=true -H./ -B./build -G Ninja
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Change `<YOUR_FLAG>` to one of the custom build flags. You **are allowed to**
|
|
use multiple at once, then add another `-D<YOUR_FLAG_2>:STRING=true`
|
|
|
|
You can of course also change the `BUILD_TYPE` to `Debug`.
|
|
|
|
Now, build:
|
|
|
|
```plain
|
|
cmake --build ./build --config Release --target all -j $(nproc)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If you configured in `Debug`, change the `--config` to `Debug` as well.
|
|
|
|
Now, of course, install manually.
|
|
|
|
```plain
|
|
sudo cp ./build/Hyprland /usr/bin && sudo cp ./example/hyprland.desktop /usr/share/wayland-sessions
|
|
```
