So I finally switched my desktop from windows to EOS after years of running headless linux servers.
I’m having a good time of it but I want to be one of the cool kids and use a tiling windows manager. And ive been loving that too. Except I can’t get links to open from discord and steam can’t open the file browser. I could just boot into KDE or GNOME to add non-steam games to my library but I don’t want to goddamnit. What can I do to start fixing this issue? Haven’t found any solutions online.
Edit: looks like I found the solution, portal was installed but never ran at startup. A quick exec inside the sway config has solved my issues. Thank you everybody!
Not sure what ly is but basically I’m saying you should be using the
dbus-run-session swaycommand to run sway instead of justsway. If dbus is installed and the daemon is running then this will allow you to e.g. open links in Discord.Turns out the portal was installed but never ran at startup. Ive put an exec command in my sway config and now everything works. Appreciate both of you :)
