Login loop

Open isshin1 opened this issue 4 years ago • 2 comments

Currently for those who dont use a login manager and run sway from tty using autologin, any error in config ( ie. a typo in image file name ) is making sway endlessly loop from tty. Cant even access other tty as you are switched back to sway tty immediately. currently only solution is to access the config file using bootable iso and correct the config. Is is possible to just ignore the shader if the file dont exist ?

Does this apply to other configuration options (namely those present in Sway upstream)?

no, at best you only get that red error bar telling about the wrong syntax in that line

edit : my bad, this restart loop only happens when the wrong filename is provided in any of the 4 config lines of border images
