Sway is a tiling window manager and Wayland compositor, inspired by i3, and
|
|
written in C. Sway is designed as a drop-in replacement for i3 using the more
|
|
modern Wayland display server protocol and wlroots compositor library. Sway
|
|
works with existing i3 configuration files and supports most of i3's features
|
|
while providing several new features of its own. [0]

[001] Installation

There are three flavors of Sway in the repositories.
|
|
|
|
1. 'sway': Sway as upstream intended. Comes with all the bells and whistles
|
|
and requires use of the seatd daemon.
|
|
|
|
2. 'sway-no-seat': Sway without the seatd daemon requirement. Instead, the
|
|
libseat library embeds the daemon.
|
|
|
|
3. 'sway-tiny': All changes from 'sway-no-seat' plus no dependency on pcre,
|
|
json-c, pango and cairo.

|
| $ kiss b [sway|sway-no-seat|sway-tiny] |

|
|
|
|
If the system has no fonts, installation of a font is also required.

[002] Setup
|
|
________________________________________________________________________________
|
|
|
|
|
|
--[003] Add User To Input Video And TTY Groups ---------------------------------
|
|
|
|
+----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
|
|
| |
|
|
| $ addgroup USER input |
|
|
| $ addgroup USER video |
|
|
| $ addgroup USER tty |
|
|
| |
|
|
+----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
|
|
|
|
|
|
--[004] Setup Seat Management --------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
If using the 'sway package, the seatd daemon must be setup. Refer to the
|
|
documentation found here @/libseat
|
|
|
|
If using the 'sway-no-seat' or 'sway-tiny' packages, there is no seatd daemon
|
|
requirement. Instead you must be the first to call DRMSetMaster. [1]
|
|
|
|
|
|
--[005] Set XDG_RUNTIME_DIR ----------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
This environment variable must be set to a directory that is writable by your
|
|
user. This can be anywhere in theory though /run/user/$(id -u) is recommended.

[007] Troubleshooting
|
|
________________________________________________________________________________
|
|
|
|
If you are using the 'sway-tiny' package and encounter any issues, send bug
|
|
reports to $/kisslinux/repo rather than upstream.
