Hi, I decided to replace lightdm with ly: GitHub - fairyglade/ly: display manager with console UI after learning about it today.
I followed the guide on GitHub, deleted lightdm and removed /etc/systemd/system/display-manager.service as noted in this video: Ly - A Nerd's Display Manager - YouTube to bypass an error message that prevented the ly.service from starting. After reboot, the ly login works without issues, but
- I get the “Unable to get connection to the message bus session” error with this output: Error spawning command line “dbus-launch --autolaunch=9251940c30734093a2685b41642c1722 --binary-syntax --close-stderr”: Child process exited with code 1
and
- Sound is gone, with Pulseaudio selector not showing the output device anymore
I since reinstalled lightdm and its dependencies, but this hasn’t fixed the two issues.
Any ideas what is causing this and how to fix?
I’m running X11, i3wm and my i3 config file is here: i3wm config - Pastebin.com
This is the output of inxi -Fazy
: inxi -Fazy - Pastebin.com
And this is the output of pacmd dump
