Maybe start with how and why you disabled the root account then maybe you can get access to fix the problem. You've obviously made some changes you shouldn't have for some reason and now your getting bit from it.

The fact that your asking this question says you may not be ready for Hyprland. It's up to you though. As mentioned. Just install it and the login manager should see it.

I like Plank for a dock under Xfce4.

Touchpad and touchscreen are two very different things with different drivers. The touchscreen should use the Wacom drivers. The touchpad uses the libinput or synaptics driver.

eriefisher

Is this an old school mbr install or UEFI boot?

eriefisher

I don't know what myMPD is or how it works but in the link you posted are the configuration and running instructions. Have you read through these to make sure it's set up properly?

I have the same issue currently with xfce4 and wayland. There were some recent wayland updates and following a restart I could no longer log into a wayland session, labwc or wayfire, from lightdm. I could startxfce4 --wayland to get a labwc session for a bit but now that fails as well. X11 login seems to work fine.

eriefisher

Is this with Wayland?

eriefisher

Your sources are incomplete and is probably why. See example.

deb https://deb.debian.org/debian trixie main contrib non-free non-free-firmware

Add the missing components and apt update again.

dh-exec is available through all branches of debian since buster so I'm not sure why it doesn't come up. Possible a repo issue?

Code: Select all

 apt policy dh-exec
dh-exec:
  Installed: (none)
  Candidate: 0.30
  Version table:
     0.30 500
        500 https://deb.debian.org/debian unstable/main amd64 Packages

apt update
apt install dh-exec

eriefisher

Broken ungoogled-chromium-build-deps:amd64 Depends on dh-exec:amd64

As it says, "Depends on dh-exec"

Code: Select all

apt install dh-exec

and build again.

eriefisher

What is the "failure" on the first one?

The second is a dependency issue. You will have to search out how and where to get those. I'm not sure why they are not available from your standard repo but I'm sure there is a reason.

eriefisher

If you followed the link it takes you to the bits and pieces and the instruction to build the .deb.

Which login manager are you using? Did you select an X11 login? I think by default the choice is an X11 login.

eriefisher

Light-locker is not part of Xfce but rather lightdm project. I'm not sure why the Debian Xfce folks package it in to the DE. xfce4-screensaver seems to work fine although I don't use it personally. I also don't let my laptop sleep/hibernate. If I do want to lock the screen I use dm-tool lock.I have it set as a command in the whiskermenu.

You have to add "signed-by" to the line.

Code: Select all

deb [signed-by=/path/to/keyring] https://..........

or switch to the new format.

Code: Select all

Types:      deb
URIs:       https://deb.debian.org/debian/
Suites:     unstable
Components: main contrib non-free non-free-firmware
Enabled:    yes
Signed-By:  /usr/share/keyrings/debian-archive-keyring.gpg

eriefisher

You need to point it to the keyring.

Code: Select all

Types:      deb
URIs:       https://deb.debian.org/debian/
Suites:     unstable
Components: main contrib non-free non-free-firmware
Enabled:    yes
Signed-By:  /usr/share/keyrings/debian-archive-keyring.gpg

Try changing the theme. Better yet switch to LightDM. That's what I did.

eriefisher

Is this a remote guest? Why are you trying to use VNC? Although no MS stuff I do run a couple guests locally for testing etc. I run them in full screen on a virtual desktop one at a time.
