  • Ly display manager issues!
    After building & installing ly demonstrate manager (https://github.com/nullgemm/ly) I can't‏‏‎‏‏‎‏‏‎‏‏‎­seem to start it as there is no entry in /etc/sv to start. I then came across this: https://github.com/drozdowsky/ly-void. A build of ly that supports runit & sure enough it has a service to start however when I restart my pc and ly display manager starts, even with the right credentials it does not log in, only...

  • Bloated base install?
    I definitely know what you mean; I used to use ly (and haven't been able to figure out how to write a package/service for it, yet) and would love to use that, again. Source: over 2 years ago
  • Display Managers and TTY
    Yes, actually! Ly is a console-based display manager that allows you to select your login target between any of the standard sessions (KDEs, GNOMEs, and what have you), explicit launching of .xinitrc, or just dropping straight into terminal. Source: over 2 years ago
  • Which DE do you prefer?
    What DM are you using? I tried to compile both ly-void and normal ly according to this guide. Source: over 2 years ago
  • i feel deeply betrayed.
    On the github page there is an instruction to build it manually, but idk whether that works on fedora :/. Source: almost 3 years ago
