# Gentoo / Hyprland
|
||
|
||
The configs I use on my Gentoo machine. Hyprland runs the session; Quickshell supplies the bar and desktop controls. The look is deliberately plain: near-black surfaces, a muted blue accent, small gaps, and Maple Mono in the terminal.
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
## Configs
|
||
|
||
| Directory | Contents |
|
||
| --- | --- |
|
||
| `.config/hypr/` | Hyprland Lua config, key bindings, layout, animations, startup, and wallpaper settings |
|
||
| `.config/quickshell/` | Bar, launcher, wallpaper picker, tray, status panels, and power menu |
|
||
| `.config/foot/` | Foot terminal settings and color palette |
|
||
| `.config/fish/` | Interactive shell defaults and aliases |
|
||
| `.config/fastfetch/` | Fastfetch module layout |
|
||
|
||
## Session details
|
||
|
||
Hyprland uses the dwindle layout with 5 px inner gaps, 10 px outer gaps, and a one-pixel border. `SUPER+E` launches Foot, `SUPER+D` opens the launcher, and `SUPER+P` opens the wallpaper picker. Media keys control playback, volume, and brightness; Print takes a full screenshot, while Shift+Print starts a region capture.
|
||
|
||
The Quickshell bar sits on the left. Its panels cover audio devices and playback, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, battery, brightness, night light, and the system tray. There’s also a calendar, wallpaper browser, and power menu. The same palette appears in Foot and the Quickshell panels.
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
Foot uses Maple Mono at 9 pt, 14 px padding, and 10,000 lines of scrollback. Fish starts without a greeting; Fastfetch provides the machine summary when run from the terminal.
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
## Software
|
||
|
||
Gentoo Linux, Hyprland, Quickshell, Fish, Foot, Fastfetch, and Hyprpaper make up the session. Quickshell talks to PipeWire through `pactl` and its PipeWire module; NetworkManager and BlueZ provide network and Bluetooth control. Other commands used by the configs include `playerctl`, `wpctl`, `brightnessctl`, `hyprsunset`, `grim`, `slurp`, and `wl-clip-persist`.
|
||
|
||
## Adapting it
|
||
|
||
The current plant wallpaper is included at [`Pictures/Wallpaper/wallhaven-d5dkjm.jpg`](Pictures/Wallpaper/wallhaven-d5dkjm.jpg). The live config expects wallpapers in `~/Pictures/Wallpapers`, and changes them through `~/.local/bin/wallpaper-set`. This isn’t a portable installer: it also expects the `KVJ` GTK theme and Bibata Modern Classic cursor, and uses `doas` for power and WireGuard actions. Check those paths, programs, and privileges before copying the files to another machine.
