Hello, guys, I just installed artix and then install awesome. And want to configure it, but have no .config directory. I created it, copied rc.lua from /etc/xdg/awesome/, but it’s don’t work with it. Only with /etc/xdg/awesome/ dir. Can you help me with it, or I can just leave it like this?

  • upd: It was my mistake, because I created .xinitrc using root profile using such command: touch ~/.xinitrc, that why it was created in /root/ directory and caused errors, when I trying to startx without sudo. (I didn’t write about it, cause thought that it didn’t matter) But now all works right

    You’re gonna have to provide way more information than ‘but it don’t work with it’. In what way does it not work? Paste any error messages.

    From what I understand you made ~/.config/ and then copied /etc/xdg/awesome/rc.lua to ~/.config/rc.lua, which is wrong. It should be ~/.config/awesome/rc.lua. See man awesomerc
