🪧🪧🪧 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

♨️ Activating Packman Repo

• by default, the packman mirror chosen is “https://ftp.gwdg.de/pub/linux/misc/packman/suse/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/”
• if you require to change the mirror, edit install-scripts/00-packman.sh and add mirrors of your choice. you can find mirrors HERE

🆕 Prerequisites

• This install script is intended for atleast Server type installed.
• In theory, This should work on a any Tumbleweed with DE (Plasma, Gnome, XFCE). Although I am not sure about xfce default login manager if able to detect 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.

✨ Some notes on installation

• Some apps are being installed using OPI. These packages are wlogout, swaylock-effects and nwg-look
• for SDDM, by script sddm-qt6 will be installed. If you have already sddm, I HIGHLY SUGGEST NOT to install sddm through this script since I dont know the impact to your current sddm. Opensuse ship 2 version, sddm and sddm-qt6. The latter is more up to date… (I think)
• Another for SDDM, if you are installing from a server type of opensuse install, I highly suggest to install the sddm theme since you’ll get a vanilla look sddm theme.

✨ Costumize the packages

• inside the install-scripts directory, you can edit 02-hypr-pkgs.sh, etc. Care though as the Hyprland Dots might not work properly

🚩 Switching to SDDM assuming you have GDM installed and running

• if you really want switch to SDDM from GDM, you need to disable the gdm first.
• sudo systemctl disable gdm.service then reboot
• after reboot, need to ran the install script via tty. So suggest download the install script first. Then disable gdm. reboot and once logged in, cd into Distro-Hyprland then ./install.sh and then choose SDDM and SDDM theme in the options.
• NOTE: Distro-Hyprland is OpenSuse-Hyprland, or Fedora-Hyprland … depends on which install scripts you downloaded.

💫 SDDM and GTK Themes offered

• If you opted to install SDDM theme, here’s the LINK which is a modified fork of LINK
• If you opted to install GTK Themes, Icons, here’s the LINK. This also includes Bibata Modern Ice cursor.

🔔 NOTICE TO NVIDIA OWNERS

• Please take note that the nvidia driver will be install is G06 driver, which is for GeForce 700 series (Maxwell, Pascal…) and up see here NVIDIA-Opensuse-Link
• You can edit the install-scripts/nvidia.sh if you require for older cards. However, do take note that it may not work as older nvidia drivers dont support wayland well.

• NVIDIA users / owners, after installation, check THIS

🔔 NOTICE TO ASUS ROG Laptop owners

• There is an guide by Asusctl dev Asusctl
• However. during my test, the ROG gui is not behaving well, and I cant click any button. So The asusctl and supergfxctl that I have set here are build from source through their gitlab

💥 💥 UNINSTALL SCRIPT / Removal of Config Files

• 11 March 2025, due to popular request, created a guided uninstall.sh script. USE this with caution as it may render your system unstable.
• I will not be responsible if your system breaks
• The best still to revert to previous state of your system is via timeshift of snapper

✨ 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 agnosterzak theme is installed. Which is from external oh-my-zsh theme. You can find more themes from this OH-MY-ZSH-THEMES
• to change the theme, SUPER SHIFT O , choose desired theme, and close and open terminal.
• or manually edit ~/.zshrc . Look for ZSH_THEME=“desired theme”

❗ some known issues on this Installer

• some users reported that they have to install some packages. It is in the install-scripts/force-install.sh
• At this time the packages force to install are the following playerctl

❗ 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

• 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
• 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 zypper rm rofi . Install rofi-wayland with sudo zypper in rofi-wayland. Rofi-wayland is compatible with x11 so no need to worry.

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

• CD into OpenSuse-Hyprland directory 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

🛣️ TO DO:

• [ ] Install zsh and oh-my-zsh without necessary steps above DONE
• [ ] Make it fully functional (duh 🤣) done
• [ ] hyprland-nvidia - NOT SUPPORTED NOW SUPPORTED 🥳
• [ ] SDDM is not starting. However, if you opt to install zsh, I have already set for auto log-in to Hyprland so once you set up zsh like the instruction above. You just need to type username and password. FIXED 🥳
