have trouble on install and this the error , i use ubuntu 24.04, and after i switch Hyperland , i cannot exit the tab of any application , and i cannot use search hot keys so i only can use some hotkeys
well those options there have been deprecated. Consider reading recent release notes on https://hypr.land, in the news tab.
on what version ? can you give me the link ?
what version did you download? because that is looking for old legacy syntax of keybinds.conf instead of keybinds.lua, i thought new downloads start with a clean lua config now? either way lets look at the issues 1 by 1..
I’d start by checking whether you’re mixing old Hyprland configs with the newer configuration system for .lua because this looks to be trying to load older “legacy” configs. The errors in the screenshot show your hyprlands trying to read files like keybinds.conf and hyprland.conf, then failing on togglesplit because that dispatcher no longer exists in that form if i remember right..In newer .lua hyprland configurations, togglesplit is typically called through layoutmsg, so an old bind such as bindd = SUPER, J or whatever would need to be updated accordingly.
Your screenshot shows Hyprland successfully parsing .conf files, but im pretty sure hyprland ships with the new .lua configurations..So if you’re using the new Lua configuration system, it’s also possible you’re still trying to source legacy .conf files somewhere, which would explain why the errors are coming from those files instead of your Lua config.
First check id do is open your terminal and type" hyprctl version “This couldgo one of two ways i think… either you’re on a newer Hyprland with an old config, or you’re on an older Hyprland with a config made for a newer version. .conf by itself is not automatically wrong.(it is for new syntax and version) The real issue is that your Hyprland binary does not recognize some options/dispatchers in the config, especially as shown here togglesplit (layout type). Run” grep -Rni “togglesplit” ~/.config/hypr “, then compare that bind against the syntax supported by your installed Hyprland version.. if that returns nothing (it should) try something a little more general like” grep -Rni “split” ~/.config/hypr "
i’ll try your tips , but i need to say to you , that i am using GitHub - JaKooLit/Ubuntu-Hyprland: Automated Hyprland installer for Ubuntu. NOTE: Repo Branches as per Ubuntu Versions · GitHub this link github and i chose the version corect base on my ubuntu version, fot my installation , i wonder why th ethe configiguration and the hyprlnad is on different version, i’ll try first , if i still the solution won’t work , i will text/reply you back
well there ya go. jakool doesnt manage it anymore and its for old .conf syntax. its now linux beginnings github page but i dont even think dwilliams has upload a lua config yet.. but! you are in luck i have done most of the work porting it to .lua
This configuration though drops waybar so i wouldnt use right out the gate.. i would just use it as source matieral… im sure there are plenty of full .lua pre-configs out there by now.. (i have one in my repo too but i dont use Unbuntu, im an arch user and im not sure what differences are needed to make it work on your end)
just so you understand what is going on… you configurations you installed are for the old hyprland .conf setup.. Hyprland as of recently has changed their format to .lua for configs which actually is a great thing and allows much more control IMO… Jakool doesnt manage the repos anymore and the new dude i dont know if hes posted the full conversion for newcomers for .lua syntax yet but it wouldnt be in the original jakool repo..although you can find the link to the new repo there im pretty sure.
