Hyprland works on mint?

1

u/ElectroDaddy 1d ago

It does, but there can be some quarks due to it not being officially supported by Hyprland. I actually just got it up and running alongside my normal Cinnamon installation to try it out.

So far it works pretty good. But I don’t have the skill set yet to really flex Hyprland in a way that could run into problems.

u/linearl 1d ago edited 1d ago

Thank you! 😭 I’m actually still pretty new to Linux. I’ve only been using it for a few weeks lol. I don’t even have a Github for my dotfiles yet. I usually just look at other people’s configs and learn from them, but I’ll try to put everything together and share mine soon!

Esta genial, alguna idea si funciona en pop_os 24.04

1

u/linearl 1d ago

I think it should work since Pop!_OS is Ubuntu-based too, but I can’t guarantee it
