Installation

Base installation guide for sddm-hyprland. This should work on any distro that provides sddm and hyprland.

Configuration

sddm-hyprland tries to source these configuration files:

It is on the user to create these file/s and directory and be organized.

${prefix}/share/hyde/sddm/hyprprefs.conf
/etc/sddm.conf.d/hypr/sddm-hyprland.conf

Note

Default ${prefix} is /usr

Keyboard layouts

Configuring keyboard layouts in hyprland

input{
    kb_layout = us,ed,de
}

To change a layout use, press SUPER + K, this will trigger the keyboard layout switcher script.

Monitors

https://wiki.hyprland.org/Configuring/Monitors/

By default, this configuration will use all available monitors. You can override this by disabling the monitor. You can also solve some scaling issue specific to your monitor.

Cursor

Due to some sort of bug, the cursors cannot be set naturally by the compositor. Therefore we have to set it manually. sddm-hyprland added the sddm-user.conf to set the cursor. To avoid issues, we encorage you to add it manually.

Inside /etc/sddm.conf.d/sddm-user.conf add the following:

[Theme]
CursorTheme=Bibata-Modern-Ice
CursorSize=24

Note

Some changes happenned and I don't this is is working properly.
