Using DE from another stratum #191

Closed Titaniumtown closed 4 years ago

Titaniumtown commented 4 years ago

So I've been using instantOS (an arch based distro) that has it's own WM. I also want to switch to gentoo, is it possible for me to keep an instantOS stratum, and use the DE (through startx) but use gentoo as my init stratum?

Note: the instantOS related applications aren't available on gentoo yet

There's no automatic cross-stratum wiring between the init, DM, and DE.

If you can make that wiring yourself, e.g. configure ~/.xinitrc, there are no known issues.
