xinitrc not working #318

Closed phenelzine closed 2 years ago

phenelzine commented 2 years ago

I'm using the AUR (ly-git) version and, for some reason, when i try to login with the xinitrc option (since ratpoison is not supported by ly) it quickly reloads and prompts me back to the display manager even if I typed my password correctly. Before you ask, I have added the line "exec retpoison" to my xinitrc

You need to make .xinitrc executable and preferably add a shebang https://github.com/nullgemm/ly/issues/181#issuecomment-596244546.
