[SOLVED] Variety not working correctly when using greetd.

theprimeARCH · 2022-03-27 12:00:35

I am using an i3 + Picom WM setup. I used lightdm for quiet sometime now and everything was smooth. I am on a Dual GPU laptop. But Everything is running good using optimus manager. I have a bunch of programs that starts up through i3. Among them is variety which worked absolutely fine. I am trying to go as mouseless as possible so wanting to move to a TUI/console based login and hence installed and setup greetd along with tuigreet. I made the necessary changes in xinitrc and launch my x server with start x. Even optimus manager works absolutely okay.
Variety seems to be running but wallpaper is greyed out. If I manually set a wall using feh it works for that session.

I went back to lightdm and lo variety was working again. So I checked any error logs for variety and I got two main traces. Variety uses python GOlib for some stuff. And one of the function was it getting my xgd_config_directory. When running the same lines manually in python, it gives a deprecated warning but does give me the correct object. So I don't know extra env lightdm is setting that greetd is not.

When it does not find the picture path I set up it falls back to a default of ~/Pictures.
But even after that It fails to actually change the wall. This comes from another Traceback but the reason it fails is the same: "Could not get path to Pictures folder. Defaulting to ~/Pictures."

What am I missing with greetd that for lightdm works out of the box.

I do not know the login internals and the whole login process at all but if needed I can check any resources you guys might have.

Please post your xinitrc and i3 config.

As far as I know, greetd does not cater do systemd idioms, i.e. XDG_SESSION_TYPE is not set before the logind session is started by pam. That may or may not matter to some applications.
Maybe setting those variables afterwards in a wrapper script could be enough, maybe you need to import them in the systemd user session as well, but no guarantees that will work.

seth · 2022-03-27 20:13:43

If that's not the cause, what happens if you kill picom?
(Doesn't relate to the different DM, but I could see where a race condition between something setting the root pixmap and the compositor could lead to the perceived outcome)

theprimeARCH · 2022-03-30 15:23:03

Enabling/disabling picom have had no effect. I am guessing it is to do with systemd idioms. How can I set the env for systemd idioms? Any archwiki links?

seth · 2022-03-30 16:22:52

Let's see what's there and whether there's a difference

printenv
loginctl session-status

in either session.

Here. There definitly are differences between the two startups.

Possibly relevant difference:

< DESKTOP_SESSION=i3
< XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP=i3
< XDG_SESSION_DESKTOP=i3
< XDG_SESSION_TYPE=x11
> XDG_SESSION_TYPE=tty

You could try to export the desktop type (i3) to variety (eg. in your xinitrc) and see whether that makes it happy (being a multi-purpose wallpaper change it'll likely try to support various desktop environment as well as root window based sessions what makes it important to be able to distinguish between those)
I don't think the XDG_SESSION_TYPE will be relevant but it seems the only other half-wise significant difference.

I can confirm that exporting either

XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP=i3
or
XDG_SESSION_DESKTOP=i3

in my xinitrc works. I decided to go with XDG_SESSION_DESKTOP.

Also like you said the XDG_SESSION_TYPE had no effect on it,

This thread can be marked solved and closed.

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.
