Thanks Jake. By following along with your video and the official docs I was able to get up and running with my first Void install ever with my new favourite WM in one evening. I always thought it would be more complicated but you helped demystifiy a lot of things and made it fun. Really appreciate your video!
Jake, we know you have a busy life. I think you apologize too much for not posting at a certain time. I personally look forward to your videos, but whether you choose to make a video once a week, once a month, or whatever duration, that's up you. I look forward to watching your videos when they come out, but if it takes longer for you to do it, so be it.. you just need to do what suits you, the rest of us are just secondary aspects and along for the ride. You are the primary aspect of your life.. that's my perspective anyways, and although sometimes I do try to cater to wishes of others, the end goal is for me, those who don't like it can unsubscribe to my channel..I am not trying to please everyone.
Thank you I appreciate the kind words and the understanding. I try to walk the line between keeping my channel up to date and not burning myself out, but sometimes focus goes too far in one direction or the other and I have to make corrections. Thanks.for the understanding and support.
Man, another rabbit-hole ;-) Much appreciated Jake. Always wanted to get going with Void, have quite a lot of Hyprland experience, so this was great timing. Been spending some time in the Void handbook (very clear) and already had quite some fun. All installed, added and removed some applications: ready to delve deeper tomorrow. Thanks a lot!
Awesome video! Void has been a great distro. I've tried Sway and it was very usable. My next ones are going to be Wayfire and Hyperland. I want Wayland compositor that I can use compositing effects.
Hey Jake! I'm new on the channel and this is the first video I see.. and so far I'm loving your channel! I'm doing the steps now, really hoping that it'll work, that's my last chance to get out of this 'text interface'.. and also, sorry if my english is bad, it's not my main language. Edit: oh God no, it did not work for me when trying to start Hyprland... What can I do now?
Hello! I just subscribed! I used to run Void when I got tired of Funtoo/Gentoo, and I liked it when I ran it, but I did something when upgrading pkgs etc that completely borked my install/filesystem, so I want back to Windows for a time, but now I'm on vanilla Arch Linux running none other than... Hyprland! I'm running Stephan Raabe/MyLinuxForWork's dot files, and I really like it. If he or someone in the community ever "ports" his install script for his dotfiles to Void I'll go back to Void in a heartbeat. It truely is a unique distro, and I kind of miss it. Arch is too common (and of course well supported), but running Void was fun. I have a spare mini PC here so I might install Void onto it to play with it not on my main system. Question though, can't you passthrough a GPU or part of a GPU into your Virt Manager/QEMU instance to allow for animations etc? Great video!
Hi. I followed along on my void system with xfce, but im having issues when trying to run Hyprland. It says Unsupported maximum keycode 708, clipping. And then crashes after that. What am i doing wrong?

Based on what I am seeing, there is an issue with the spacing, meaning there is too much space around some of the arrows in the file named config. If you adjust the quotes around the arrows that should solve the issue. I recommend start with the first arrow, adjust one of the quotes, save and reload waybar so the change takes effect and see if it fixed the issue, there may be more than 1, if it did, great, if not, put the space back how it was and move to the next quote. I can't put an arrow in the comments here.butnincan give an example, I will use < instead of an arrow. Example: if line looks like this "< ", change it to look like this "
I like your videos. I use VirtualBox for a Fedora and KDE VM. Whenever I use a terminal (Konsole) I have to use the shift key along with super and whatever (x,c,etc.) because VB is weird with key combination assignments. May be the deal with your VM software, too.
Edit: xorg-fonts fixed it for me `sudo xbps-install xorg-fonts` Which fonts? @@JakeLinux running into the same issue running it on hardware, I even tried to force kitty to use wayland in my bashrc.
Hey Jake, Great video. You look really tired. Please get enough rest. Nothing is worth destroying your health and ending up in a hospital. I know our society preaches go go go. Yet most people are stressed out all of the time. This is not healthy. Trucking for 14 years locked me into that way of life more than I realized. I retired due to burnout in December of 2019. It has taken me 3 years, with lots of God’s help, to learn how to truly relax. I thought that I was taking sufficient breaks and time off in trucking. I was so very wrong. Beware, brother.
@@JakeLinux Understood. I would suggest that producing TH-cam videos does not take priority over getting adequate rest ESPECIALLY when life kicks you in the rear end.
Can you make a tutorial about writing Void package templates? I figured out how to make a Void software repository, but now I cannot figure out how to make package templates.
hey Jake it was because of you that I decided to change distro from arch linux to void, but after my installation Hyprland simply closes at different intervals and when I download the proprietary nvidia driver hyprland simply doesn't open, could you help me with this or anyone who knows how to solve my problem?
I'm not sure, it's been a minute since I used hyprland, I know there is a new way to install with all the dependencies, I will look into it, unfortunately I don't use Nvidia so I can't do anything with that issue.
@@JakeLinux Thank you, I'm trying it myself, looking through the documentation one attempt after another, I managed to install it but now Hyprland keeps flickering on the screen. I've been trying to put void linux and hyprland together for about 5 days now.
still not working despite "Look in the hyprland-void template/srcpkgs directory that you downloaded, they should be in there, then copy them from there into the void-packages/srcpkgs directory." Pls Help
Why would you need to install both seatd and elogind ? Hyprland and its XDG portal use libseat, which if I understood it correctly, turns seatd into a complete elogind replacement. Also more generally, why would you want elogind when you already took the leap of running a systemd-free system ?
I see you have WGU student portal tabs, are you currently attending? I’m considering the software engineering degree. Mind if I ask what you’re majoring in and how you like it? Thanks in advance.
I am working on my bachelor's degree in software engineering, so far it is ok, you have to be dedicated and disciplined, the work at your own pace can be easy to let time.get away from you. The coursework is decent but they include a ton of extra resources. The price is better than liberty university, that is where I got my associates degree in information systems. There are pros and cons to it, just like anything else.
@@JakeLinux cool, that's pretty much what I'm expecting. I have a lot of IT experience and I'm in my 50's with a successful business that is pretty autonomous, so I can definitely devote the time to it. I've been working daily on my own learning to program already, so I think I'd be up for it. I also have a BA degree already, so the number of classes I'd have to take will be pretty minimal.

Hey Mr. Jake I am severely confused as to how to use dot-files. Do you mind explaining how to use them? Specifically your dot-files for HLWM for Void...
Are you curious about my specific current HLWM setup or just how to set it up in general. I am going to do a refresh on setting up HLWM in the near future and completely redo my.configuration.
This is weird, during the build of hyprland it keeps getting stuck for long periods of time at different stages, like installing host dependencies and target dependencies. I switch to another tty and according to top there isn't a whole lot going on with the cpu or memory.
Yeah, I'm not sure what is going on there, that is the reason I paused the recording so many times, sometimes it just sits and seems to be doing nothing but then after a few minutes continues on.
I'm so glad I've run into your content however long ago! I was wondering... (perhaps a video idea for sometime) On Void, how would one go about kernel upgrades and maintenance? It appears straightforward in the documentation but seeing this all visually would be neat! Grateful for you brother, have a great rest of your week 😎
Thanks for the kind words, I'm glad you enjoy the content. Now that I am back on Void full time, I want to highlight Void and it's capabilities, so I will definitely add kernel maint and topics to my content list.
Hey Jake, I'm running into a problem when running void-installer in a qemu virtual machine. I followed the exact same steps in the installer as yours and partitioned it the same exact way but at the very end of the installation I received an error stating that I failed to install grub on /dev/vda. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
After re-doing it for a 3rd time I found the issue. It seems QEMU automatically chooses the BIOS Firmware if you didn't explicitly select the UEFI one in the gui.
Thanks, it is neofetch with a custom config, I have a custom script I usually run and display, I just have not set it up again yet. I prefer to create rather than use premade programs as much as I possibly can. Nothing against using premade programs, just prefer to try to do things myself.
Hello jake there's a project called swayfx it's based on sway and adds various eye candy features like rounded corners and blur. I would like to hear your opinions about it.
Hey, I've almost finished setting up my hyprland + void linux setup but I've been having a persistent issue with my display manager (SDDM). It works fine on boot and initial login, but when I log out of Hyprland (be it through wlogout, the hyprland bind, or killing the service) I get put on an infinite black screen. I've tested this with lightDM as well, with the same issue. I can get out of it by opening up a virtual terminal, but I'd rather fix the issue. Did you run into anything similar? Or any ideas to fix it? Thank you!
Weird, I used to get that on login every time, even at initial login. if i used a display manager, I would get a black screen and nothing else but from a terminal I could launch Hyprland just fine. What does your hyprland.desktop look like?
No I have not tried that yet, maybe if I ever settle down on a single WM and it is hyprland or sway, but I don't know when or if I will ever be able to do that.
What gpu are you using? I'm tempted to try both Void and Hyprland for the first time. But hyprland wayland support seems like it might be sketchier on nVidia.
I had issues multiple times with sddm for some reason unless elogind was installed. I did not use sddm in the video but it is just habit to install it now.
@@JakeLinux I'm sorry if I bother you, but gvfs and udiskie doesn't work properly on my Void + Hyprland Setup, I still don't know why, because I'm using the same script on My Gentoo + Runit and it works just fine, my same config files works on almost every distro I tried
@@JakeLinux for some reason the Dbus service doesn't work properly, it starts without any problem because Hyprland works, but for some apps it doesn't, I fix it by changing some executable line and now is working fine, I still need to fix the Sys tray problem
Super+Q wont work unless you passthrough your super key to the virtual machine. You can add the following lines to your hyprland.conf # Passthrough SUPER KEY to Virtual Machine bind = $mainMod, P, submap, passthru submap = passthru bind = SUPER, Escape, submap, reset submap = reset With this, you passthrough your super key by SUPER+P. After that, all of your key bindings will only work on virtual until you reset your submap with SUPER+ESC
Thanks for the tip but passthrough isn't needed, my original test run had no issues because I installed xorg. if xorg is installed kitty launches perfectly fine.
I think the terminal doesn't launch because a font isn't installed for it to use, and since Xorg comes with fonts, this rectifies the issue. It's not an input capture problem because Super+M still works for exiting Hyprland. I installed the Liberation fonts and it worked without xorg.

submap = passthru
bind = SUPER, Escape, submap, reset
submap = reset
With this, you passthrough your super key by SUPER+P. After that, all of your key bindings will only work on virtual until you reset your submap with SUPER+ESC
Thanks for the tip but passthrough isn't needed, my original test run had no issues because I installed xorg. if xorg is installed kitty launches perfectly fine.
@JakeLinux, I encountered a similar problem with Alacritty and Dmenu on Debian. Installing Xwayland resolved the issue for me.
I think the terminal doesn't launch because a font isn't installed for it to use, and since Xorg comes with fonts, this rectifies the issue. It's not an input capture problem because Super+M still works for exiting Hyprland. I installed the Liberation fonts and it worked without xorg.
It was the font that was doing it for me. I ran `sudo xbps-install -S font-iosevka` and it all worked
