Took all my notes and transcribed all of the known failure modes I could find into the debian version of this guide, but also expanded it to arch and fedora because I use those too. Hope it helps someone: https://github.com/crussella0129/linux-nivida-troubleshooting
I switched to Artix Linux
i messed with my dbus and now when i run start-hyprland waybar doesnt open, sound doesnt work, and some other issues.
can anyone tell me what i need to change, or run to fix these issues?
im on dinit artix, with the cachyos kernel.
i attached a drive with some folders to help so you can see into it and maybe recognize the issue, im new to linux so i'm not good with this sort of stuff.
i attached a google drive with my folder layout and all files i thought that could possibly be causing the issue, if any more are needed let me know.
Any recommendation? I've learned a lot thanks to this beautiful distro, and also, I want to avoid from systemd systems
If artix is left for some time, the window manager crashes and I have to logout via a keybind and log back in. (Can't access a tty for some reason)
However, logs look good. I am a non-systemd noob btw.

Nearly 60 percent of the steamOS functionalities works. The other 40 are heavily dependency of systemd which requires a huge overall rewrite. The 40 percent are very important such as tpm, framerate, freshrate, deckyloader, and many others to optimize the steamdeck to fullest. Those are not functional atm. I use mixture of Valve's repo (kernel and it's headers, amdcode, firmwares, etc), Artix repo, and aur. I wrote two dinit service. It uses opensd.
It can boot straight into big picture mode with additional 5-10 seconds. Virtual keyboard works as long steam is running in the background. Steam button + X opens virtual keyboard.
Do I recommended it? Yes but a big no. There are some jank involved. Just stick with Valve's OS until community comes together to build knock off version of Valve's OS with fully functional dinit service build in.
Hi guys just curious if i can get systemd on artix,,,
im joking i’ve been using arch for while now and im curious weather artix is worth looking into since i’ve realized i’ve become a slave to systemd plus i want to try something new
Im not really sure if this is what my problem is, but my audio has not been working for a while now. After looking into it a bit it seems like Im having an audio device and codec mismatch. My motherboard has and ALC1200 but ALSA lists my soundcard as an ALCS1200A. A little googling tells me these two are very different, a little more googling tells me these two are exactly the same, so I have no Idea if Im just chasing smoke here or if this is the actual issue. For reference my audio is completely garbled upon entry into OS, it's just click sounds that neither get louder or quieter as you change the volume. If this problem wouldn't be caused by a device codec mismatch that what could the actual problem be?
I begin, after using artix dinit for a while.
timers systemctl list-timers. I know cron,.. but timers feels cleanersystemd-analyze blamePS: not big issues, but i'd like an equivalent for that.
I've had this issue for years and I never really did much to solve it because I could never figure out what's wrong. I have a HP Spectre Pro with (currently) Artix (OpenRC). The ";" key on the integrated keyboard does not function properly, sometimes it stops working randomly and then doesn't start again until reboot or does not function at all. I decided to use an external bluetooth keyboard (Portonics Bubble Dock) however, to my surprise, the semicolon key (or the colon key) stops working at the same time on the external keyboard as well. It has showed a lot of weird behaviour but I'll describe in detail the recent one:
After booting in Artix, the semicolon key works perfectly fine. After some time, however, the semicolon key starts spamming on any text field I am currently on (for example, if the terminal is open, the terminal starts to get spammed with the semicolon key as if I am holding that key down). This happens even if the laptop was on sleep mode (I know this since I've noticed the laptop showing the login screen sometimes and the password field is filled with the semicolon key.)
Either it stops functioning completely after some time own its own and also stops spamming or I have to hit backspace on the integrated keyboard a couple to time to get it to stop functioning completely. What's very weird is that when it stops working, it neither works on the integrated keyboard nor the external keyboard connected by bluetooth. The only way to get the semicolon key running properly again is to reboot the laptop, but all of this happens again after some time.
I've had this issue when I was using Windows 10, Zorin, Fedora, EndeavourOS, Arch, and now on Artix as well. If it were to have been an issue with the semicolon key on the integrated keyboard, the semicolon key on the external keyboard should have worked just fine and it cannot be a software error either since I've switched OSes multiple times and still faced the same issue.
My best guess is that something may be wrong with the EC (Embedded Controller) which is basically a hardware module responsible for sending input from keyboard (integrated or externally connected) and sending the input to the Kernel, but I don't really know for sure and I don't know how I can fix it.
I appreciate any help!
Every time I launch Spotify, it asks me to log in again. I use runit. I installed it via AUR.
Showcasing the rewrite of KDE Plasma Login Manager to work with OpenRC, elogind and XLibre on Artix Linux.
This is a must if you have want refind installed outta the gate. ( I have 3 boot drives). And there are more environments to choose like Hyprland, Cosmic, Icewm, etc.

All credit goes to the creator and if he happens to see my post on here, thanks for your work. Use this with a weekly version of the base iso. Also, its easier to use than archinstall if you ever used that.
dinit
this is only a preliminary test vm, so no fish or waybar config
xfce x openbox x picom my beloved
i'm sure my celery's igpu can handle a little overhead for some pretty glass effects
Post your package requests here. Please stick to packages that already exist in Arch's official repos. If you've tried the Arch package in Artix, please say so and report if anything is broken. Check if someone else has requested your package in this thread and if so upvote and/or reply to that comment instead. There is no guarantee your request will get fulfilled.
I’ve been trying to access the forums as I recently updated my setup and the newest s6-related packages broken my configuration so I was looking to find the IRC to find some fixes but the sites are currently down. What is the best place to monitor the latest during these events?
I installed Artix via KDE but i use labwc. I use gnome-keyring
1. Rebuild packages with turnstile support:
# Edit /etc/makepkg.conf or use environment to enable turnstile
# Then rebuild:
sudo pacman -S --rebuild polkit swayidle
2. Replace swayidle with wlsidle (Wayland-native alternative that doesn't need logind/elogind):
sudo pacman -S wlsidle
3. Quick fix - force remove then rebuild:
sudo pacman -Rdd elogind
sudo pacman -S --rebuild polkit swayidle
EDIT: i theory you can, in practice it's a mess to remove elogind because you have ui that depends on NetworkManager that depends on it and user suspend scripts that needs to be recreated.. So in conclusion NO, unless you know really what you are doing
I use ly, turnstiled, it was working before
UPDATE: Now it works, XDG_RUNTIME_DIR is defined ~/.config/dinit.d/environment and pam_turnstile in ly config.
Hi everyone! I have a fairly average laptop:
i3-10110U
Intel UHD Graphics
8 GB RAM
I'm currently running Debian (GNOME). Would it be worth switching to Artix (runit, bspwm, or another environment) for better performance? I'd like to get the most out of my laptop.
