Can't login after first reboot

[MrDerekib]

Hi I've installed M4LW after a minimal install of arch linux (archinstall script).

I've run the package trough the paru as suggested on the Yt channel (paru -S ml4w-hyprland)

Alll ok, I can login and go to the desktop environment but when I restarted can't login anymore... go to black screen for a seconds and go back to the login screen.

Can I fix it? Maybe I have to do some modifications before restart?

It's a humble pc but it runs fine on https://github.com/prasanthrangan/hyprdots for example...

Hi. Thanks for testing.

Can you try to switch to tty and try to start Hyprland with the command Hyprland.
Are there any error messages?

Do you have a NVIDIA card?

Hey Stephan, thanks for take time to respond. I've included the "source = ~/.config/hypr/conf/environments/nvidia.conf" to the Enviroment section in hyprland.conf and now I can login and run hyprland.

What driver are runing with this configuration? I have the feeling that some applications do not take advantage of graphics acceleration.

I think the nouveau is the open source one right?

how can I add the cpu to the mission center (only cpu graph right now), taskbar info / sidebar, Alacitty (when open a new window info)?

There are no drivers installed. It's just the NVIDIA environment variables. But great that you have shared your feedback. Will invest more time into the NVIDIA setup with 2.9.7.

I installed the nvidia-dkms and nvidia-utils drivers and when I rebooted only one of the two monitors was working and the other at low resolution and flickering. Sure I did it wrong.
Fortunately I have entered by tty and when uninstalling them it is functional again. I need a test environment and learn a lot about arch and Hyprland I think.

A better support of Nvidia cards on 2.9.7 will be awesome!
