exec-once = hypr-empty in hyprland.conf doesnot work ..but if i do hypr-empty in terminal starts it

can you confirm that you can run other programs from your hyprland.conf ?

I also have a similar issue, it doesn't auto-start when added to Hyprland.conf, however waybar and hyprpaper do. It works fine when ran from the terminal or from rofi -show run, but not rofi -show drun (this errors saying it can't find the file)

any ideas?

If you have ~/.cargo/bin in your PATH I don't know why the programs aren't finding it. Maybe add /home/<user>/.cargo/bin/hypr-empty in Hyprland.conf instead of just hypr-empty?

but not rofi -show drun (this errors saying it can't find the file)

Is the error from hypr-emty? if so can you send the backtrace?

Cornelius-Figgle commented 1 year ago

For some reason that solves it! I don't know if its because of how I edited $PATH (I just added an EXPORT line to the end of my .bashrc) or what but Hyprland seems to start hypr-empty fine with the full path

I think that it may be that Hyprland has its own copy of $PATH that it loads apps from (or it skips .bashrc initialisation?) and that doesn't have /home/<user>/.cargo/bin in its list

Anyways thank you for the solution :)
