// ly nerds login manager for @metis-os

A lightweight TUI (ncurses-like) display manager for metis-os, but yeah can easily be used with artix linux with runit.

Forked from fairyglade's ly for metis linux (runit).

Metis Linux Login Screen with ly

So, you just have to get this project and it's runit service and install them and enable the service.

Or, just get the packages (metis-ly and metis-ly-runit) from the metis linux repo and install them with pacman and enable the service.

I don't know why but you need to remove the tty service to make ly work.

By default ly starts on tty2; so you need to remove agentty-tty2 i.e, # rm -rf /run/runit/service/agetty-tty2

You can change the config in /etc/ly/config.ini whenerver you change tty you need to remove the service for that specific tty.
