Hello, guys, I just installed artix and then install awesome. And want to configure it, but have no .config directory. I created it, copied rc.lua from /etc/xdg/awesome/, but it’s don’t work with it. Only with /etc/xdg/awesome/ dir. Can you help me with it, or I can just leave it like this?
just to be sure, config should be at /home/yourusername/.config/awesome/rc.lua
The user path should be
.config/awesome/rc.lua
Also recommend to check out https://github.com/lcpz/awesome-copycats
for ready made themes.
yes, my pass exactly sameyes, my pass exactly same, or ~/.config/awesome/rc.lua is difference?
Don’t recommend leaving it like this, because if Awesome ever releases an update you’ll lose your config.
Where exactly did you copy your rc.lua?
is your username root or something else?
You’re gonna have to provide way more information than ‘but it don’t work with it’. In what way does it not work? Paste any error messages.
From what I understand you made
~/.config/
and then copied/etc/xdg/awesome/rc.lua
to~/.config/rc.lua
, which is wrong. It should be~/.config/awesome/rc.lua
