Installation
The installation script is designed for a minimal Arch Linux install, but may work on some Arch-based distros. While installing HyDE alongside another DE/WM should work, due to it being a heavily customized setup, it will conflict with your GTK/Qt theming, Shell, SDDM, GRUB, etc. and is at your own risk.
[!IMPORTANT] The install script will auto-detect an NVIDIA card and install nvidia-dkms drivers for your kernel. Please ensure that your NVIDIA card supports dkms drivers in the list provided here.
[!CAUTION] The script modifies your
grub
orsystemd-boot
config to enable NVIDIA DRM.
To install, execute the following commands:
pacman -Sy git
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/prasanthrangan/hyprdots ~/HyDE
cd ~/HyDE/Scripts
./install.sh
[!TIP] You can also add any other apps you wish to install alongside HyDE to
Scripts/custom_apps.lst
and pass the file as a parameter to install it like so:./install.sh custom_apps.lst
As a second install option, you can also use Hyde-install
, which might be easier for some.
View installation instructions for HyDE in Hyde-cli - Usage.
Please reboot after the install script completes and takes you to the SDDM login screen (or black screen) for the first time. For more details, please refer to the installation wiki.
Updating
To update HyDE, you will need to pull the latest changes from GitHub and restore the configs by running the following commands:
cd ~/HyDE/Scripts
git pull
./install.sh -r
[!IMPORTANT] Please note that any configurations you made will be overwritten if listed to be done so as listed by
Scripts/restore_cfg.lst
. However, all replaced configs are backed up and may be recovered from in~/.config/cfg_backups
.
As a second update option, you can use Hyde restore ...
, which does have a better way of managing restore and backup options.
For more details, you can refer to Hyde-cli - dots management wiki.
