> [!IMPORTANT]
> install a backup tool like `snapper` or `timeshift`. and Backup your system before installing hyprland using this script (**HIGHLY RECOMMENDED**).
> [!CAUTION]
> Download this script on a directory where you have write permissions. ie. HOME. Or any directory within your home directory. Else script will fail
#### ⚠️ Pre-requisites and VERY Important
- Do not run this installer as sudo or as root
- This Installer requires a user with a priviledge to install packages
- Needs a Debian 13 Trixie or greater. As it needs a newer wayland packages!
- edit your `/etc/apt/sources.list` and **remove** `#` on lines with `deb-src` to enable source packaging else will not install properly especially Hyprland
```bash
sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list
```
- delete # on the lines with 'deb-src'
- ensure to allow to install non-free drivers especially for users with NVIDIA gpus. You can also install non-free drivers if required. Edit install-scripts/nvidia.sh and change the nvidia stuff's if required
### 🪧🪧🪧 ANNOUNCEMENT 🪧🪧🪧
[Debian-Hyprland Changelogs](https://github.com/JaKooLit/Debian-Hyprland/blob/main/CHANGELOGS.md)
- 10 October 2025 Update!
- Hyprland-Debian nows builds 0.51.1 from source!
- The installer now can be used to install newer releases later
- If you are currently running 0.49, or 0.50, you can upgrade to 0.51.1
- You do not have to re-install everything, but re-running `install.sh` works also
- Instructions are available in English and Spanish
#### ✨ Some notes on this installer / Prerequisites
- Recommend to install SDDM. Apart from GDM and SDDM, any other Login Manager may not work nor launch Hyprland. However, hyprland can be launched through tty by type Hyprland
- 🕯️ network-manager-gnome (nm-applet) *has been removed* from the packages to install. This is because it is known to restart the networkmanager causing issues in the installation process. After you boot up, inorder to get the network-manager applet, install network-manager-gnome. `sudo apt install network-manager-gnome` See below if your network or wifi became unmanaged after installation
### 🚩 changing login manager to SDDM
- if you really want to change login manager, there are couple of things you need to carry out before running this install script
- first install sddm. the no-install-recommends is suggested else it will pull lots of plasma depencies.
```bash
sudo apt install --no-install-recommends -y sddm
```
- then ran `sudo dpkg-reconfigure sddm` choose sddm and then reboot.
- once reboot done, you can ran the script and choose sddm & sddm theme
- [LINK](https://www.simplified.guide/ubuntu/switch-to-gdm) for some guide
#### 💫 SDDM and GTK Themes offered
- If you opted to install SDDM theme, here's the [LINK](https://github.com/JaKooLit/simple-sddm-2) which is a modified fork of [LINK](https://github.com/Keyitdev/sddm-astronaut-theme)
- If you opted to install GTK Themes, Icons, here's the [LINK](https://github.com/JaKooLit/GTK-themes-icons). This also includes Bibata Modern Ice cursor.
#### 🔔 NOTICE TO NVIDIA OWNERS ###
- By default it is installing the latest and newest nvidia drivers. If you have an older nvidia-gpu (GTX 800 series and older), check out nvidia-debian website [LINK](https://wiki.debian.org/NvidiaGraphicsDrivers) and edit nvidia.sh in install-scripts directory to install proper gpu driver
- If you have nvidia, and wanted to use proprietary drivers, uninstall nouveau first (if installed). This script will be installing proprietary nvidia drivers and will not deal with removal of nouveau.
- NVIDIA users / owners, after installation, check [`THIS`](https://github.com/JaKooLit/Hyprland-Dots/wiki/Notes_to_remember#--for-nvidia-gpu-users)
> [!IMPORTANT]
> If you wish to use the nouveau driver (installed by default in Debian), be sure to not select "Nvidia" in the installation options.
> If you select this option, the NVIDIA installer part will attempt to blacklist nouveau; while Hyprland will still be installed, it will skip blacklisting nouveau if you don't select the NVIDIA option.
## ✨ Auto clone and install
>
> [!CAUTION]
> If you are using FISH SHELL, DO NOT use this function. Clone and run install.sh instead

### 💥 UNINSTALL SCRIPT / Removal of Config Files
- 11 March 2025, due to popular request, created a guided `uninstall.sh` script. USE this with caution as it may render your system unstable.
- I will not be responsible if your system breaks
- The best still to revert to previous state of your system is via **timeshift or snapper**
#### 🤬 FAQ
**Most common question I got is, Hey Ja, Why the heck it is taking long time to install? Other distro like Arch its only a minute or two. Why here takes like forever?!?!?**
- Well, most of the core packages are downloaded and Build and compiled from *SOURCE*. Unlike Other distros, they already have prepacked binary that can just download and install.
## 🛎 ***DEBIAN Hyprland Dots UPDATING NOTES***
- With this new update to Debian-Hyprland the current Hyprland-Dots are now compatible with Debian. This applies only to Debian, not ubuntu.
> [!NOTE]
> This script does not setup audio. Kindly set up. If you have not, I recommend pipewire. `sudo apt install -y pipewire`
#### 🙋 Got a questions regarding the Hyprland Dots or configurations? 🙋
Head over to wiki Link [`WIKI`](https://github.com/JaKooLit/Hyprland-Dots/wiki)
#### ⌨ Keybinds
Keybinds [`CLICK`](https://github.com/JaKooLit/Hyprland-Dots/wiki/Keybinds)
> [!TIP]
> KooL Hyprland has a searchable keybind function via rofi. (SUPER SHIFT K) or right click the `HINTS` waybar button
#### 🙋 👋 Having issues or questions?
- for the install part, kindly open issue on this repo
- for the Pre-configured Hyprland dots / configuration, submit issue [`here`](https://github.com/JaKooLit/Hyprland-Dots/issues)
#### 🔧 Proper way to re-installing a particular script from install-scripts directory
- CD into Debian-Hyprland directory and then ran the below command.
- i.e. `./install-scripts/gtk-themes.sh` - to reinstall GTK Themes or
- `./install-scripts/sddm.sh` - to reinstall sddm
> [!IMPORTANT]
> DO NOT CD into install-scripts directory as script as it will fail. Scripts are designed to ran outside install-scripts directory for installation logging purposes.
#### 🛣️ Roadmap
- [ ] possibly adding gruvbox themes, cursors, icons
#### ❗ some known issues for nvidia
- reports from members of my discord, states that some users of nvidia are getting stuck on sddm login. credit to @Kenni Fix stated was
```
while in sddm press ctrl+alt+F2 or F3
log into your account
`lspci -nn`, find the id of your nvidia card
`ls /dev/dri/by-path` find the matching id
`ls -l /dev/dri/by-path` to check where the symlink points to
)
```
- add "env = WLR_DRM_DEVICES,/dev/dri/cardX" to the ENVvariables config `~/.config/hypr/UserConfigs/ENVariables.conf` ; X being where the symlink of the gpu points to
- more info from the hyprland wiki [`Hyprland Wiki Link`](https://wiki.hyprland.org/FAQ/#my-external-monitor-is-blank--doesnt-render--receives-no-signal-laptop)
- reports from a member of discord for Nvidia for additional env's
- remove # from the following env's on
```
env = GBM_BACKEND,nvidia-drm
env = WLR_RENDERER_ALLOW_SOFTWARE,1
```
#### 🫥 Improving performance for Older Nvidia Cards using driver 470
- [`SEE HERE`](https://github.com/JaKooLit/Hyprland-Dots/discussions/123#discussion-6035205)
#### ❗ other known issues
> [!NOTE]
> Auto start of Hyprland after login (no SDDM or GDM or any login managers)
- This was disabled a few days ago. (19 May 2024). This was because some users, after they used the Distro-Hyprland scripts with other DE (gnome-wayland or plasma-wayland), if they choose to login into gnome-wayland for example, Hyprland is starting.
- to avoid this, I disabled it. You can re-enable again by editing `~/.zprofile` . Remove all the # on the first lines
- [ ] ROFI issues (scaling, unexplained scaling etc). This is most likely to experience if you are installing on a system where rofi is currently installed. To fix it uninstall rofi and install rofi-wayland . `sudo apt autoremove rofi` .
- Install rofi-wayland with
```bash
cd ~/Debian-Hyprland
./install-scripts/rofi-wayland.sh
```
- [ ] Rofi-wayland is compatible with x11 so no need to worry.
- [ ] Does not work in Debian Bookworm
- [ ] sddm blackscreen when log-out
- [ ] Installing SDDM if or any other Login Manager installed. See [`Issue 2 - SDDM`](https://github.com/JaKooLit/Debian-Hyprland/issues/2)
- [ ] network is down or become unmanaged [`This`](https://askubuntu.com/questions/71159/network-manager-says-device-not-managed) might help
