Post-Installation
Critical system finalization. Skip these, and your setup is broken.
The Final 1%
A script is not a magic wand. If you don't understand the environment you just built, you'll be back here in a week complaining about broken fonts or shell errors. These steps are non-negotiable. Execute them, verify them, and only then consider your system "ready."
Default Shell
Fish is installed, but your system still defaults to Bash. Switch to the interactive shell.
chsh -s /usr/bin/fishFont Cache
Hyprland relies on Nerd Fonts. If your icons look like squares, you skipped this.
fc-cache -fvSystem Sync
Environmental variables and kernel modules require a fresh session. Do not "hot-load."
rebootCrucial Checks
- 01.Check
~/.config/hypr/hyprland.conffor monitor resolution overrides. - 02.Verify that your graphics drivers (NVIDIA/AMD) are correctly loaded.
- 03.Ensure your user is part of the
videoandinputgroups.
Environment Env
Ensure your /etc/environment contains your toolkit backends (QT_QPA_PLATFORM, GDK_BACKEND) to prevent GUI scaling issues on Wayland.
