• 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.

• 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

• Can I rigg a Chromebook to install Linux on it? Not the virtual Linux they have an option for, I want to replace Chrome OS entirely with Linux.

  At any rate, you can try Breath, Crouton, Manjaro... Those are three of the distros people have found success with. It all boils down to the specific hardware involved... Which we know nothing about since you kept that to yourself. Source: 11 months ago

• [root@archlinux ~]# after login
