Portal:OpenSUSEway/Installation

Currently only Tumbleweed is supported.

Install from the command line:

sudo zypper in openSUSEway

Install from the browser:

• openSUSE Factory

After installation, just run

sway

from the command line, or if there is a login manager that supports wayland sessions, it will be available as the session selection.

To enable greetd as default login manager:

sudo mv /etc/greetd/config.toml /etc/greetd/config.toml.org
sudo mv /etc/greetd/config.toml.way /etc/greetd/config.toml
sudo systemctl set-default graphical.target
sudo systemctl enable greetd

If you already have Display Manager (GDM, SDDM, LightDM), you would need to disable it first:

sudo systemctl disable display-manager
sudo systemctl enable greetd

To re-enable your default Display Manager:

sudo systemctl disable greetd
sudo systemctl enable display-manager

openSUSEway is also available in the installer:

• select basic desktop or server
• on the last stage, select Software
• deselect unneeded X and basic icewm if they are selected
• select openSUSEway
