[Solved] greetd/agreety: 0.10.0-1 vs. 0.9.0-3
Dear Archers,
I use greetd/agreety to start a rootless X, which worked fine using 0.9.0-3, but does not work on 0.10.0-1. When using the latter, Xorg.0.log complains about permission denied on /dev/tty0, which is indeed correct. However, a downgrade of greetd/agreety brings the intended function back. In this case, X runs on /dev/tty1, with adjusted owner.
Question Is this intended behavior of the new version of greetd, or a bug?
Thank you in advance, best regards

I gave .xserverrc a fast try, however, it did not work immediately. I don't think, that I spend more time fiddling around with it, I just keep greetd downgraded to 0.9.0. I am fine with it, and it seems that the next minor upgrade should do the trick.
Thank you for the prompt reply.

Can you control it w/ https://git.sr.ht/~kennylevinsen/greetd … 0020cec92c ?

Removing $XDG_VTNR is likely the cause but you don't know.
If you want to use xserverrc (and assuming you're using xinit/startx) try to hardcode the value, $XDG_VTNR cannot work because greetd currently clears that.

The solution of choice now is a hard-coded vt 1 in xserverrc, and greetd 0.10.0. Thanks again for your fast support.

\o/
Also confirms it's the issue already addressed upstream - don't forget to unhardcode the value after the next update.
Please always remember to mark resolved threads by editing your initial posts subject - so others will know that there's no task left, but maybe a solution to find.
Thanks.
