=== XWayland apps not working === | |||
There is a optional dependency for Niri which is highly recommended to install (you can read [https://github.com/YaLTeR/niri/wiki/Xwayland this] article to learn more about this) | |||
{{File|3=environment.systemPackages = with pkgs; [ | |||
xwayland-satellite # xwayland support | |||
];|name=❄︎ /etc/nixos/configuration.nix|lang=Nix}} | |||
Or using [[Home Manager]] | |||
{{File|3=home.packages = with pkgs; [ | |||
xwayland-satellite # xwayland support | |||
];|name=❄︎ ~/.config/home-manager/home.nix|lang=Nix}} | |||
After you installed {{ic|xwayland-satellite}} Niri will integrate it out of the box and all of your XWayland apps will function properly. | |||
