While it's possible to use the same user account with Hyprland, it's highly recommended to create a new user account (instructions included). Additionally, even with a new user account, there may be daemon conflicts with your previous DE/WM.

While it's possible to use the same user account with Hyprland, it's highly recommended to create a new user account (instructions included). Additionally, even with a new user account, there may be daemon conflicts with your previous DE/WM, so it's more ideal to use a single environment.

1. Run `sudo pacman -S cachyos-hypr-noctalia`. If you run into a package conflict with another `-settings` package (such as `cachyos-kde-settings`), you can delete the conflicting package.

* Install noctalia v5 beta with `sudo pacman -Syu noctalia`. If you want the -git version, run `paru -Syu noctalia-git` or `shelly -AI noctalia-git`

1. Run `sudo pacman -S cachyos-hypr-noctalia`. If you run into a package conflict with another `-settings` package (such as `cachyos-kde-settings`), you can delete the conflicting package as these packages do not affect current users.

1. To create a new user run `sudo useradd -m <new_user> -s /bin/fish`. You can also use another shell if you prefer (i.e. /bin/zsh).
158
156
1. Run `sudo passwd <new_user>` to set a password for the account.

157
* If you _really_ want to use the same account (highly discouraged), instead copy the dots over to the user folder `cp -r /etc/skel/. ~` (make sure to create a backup/snapshot first!)

1. Optionally enable sddm as your display manager if it's not already. To do this run `systemctl disable display-manager` and `systemctl enable sddm`. [Noctalia greeter](https://github.com/noctalia-dev/noctalia-greeter) also pairs well with Noctalia, but is a bit more involved to setup.

1. Optionally install `noctalia-greeter` or `sddm` as your display manager. `noctalia-greeter` integrates better with Noctalia, but setup is slightly more complicated.
