Readme

+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Running ${PKGSTEM} on OpenBSD
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Running
=======

On OpenBSD, use the provided ${PREFIX}/bin/startniri.sh script to
launch niri from an text VT (xenodm must be stopped).

Configuration
=============

An example configuration file is installed to
/usr/local/share/niri/examples/default-config.kdl

Niri will load configuration from $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/niri/config.kdl
or ~/.config/niri/config.kdl, falling back to /etc/niri/config.kdl
if none of those are available.

For now the automatic DRM render node detection doesn't work so it
needs to be configured explicitly. The following config snippet
configures renderD128, the name of the node might differ on your
system:

  debug {
    render-drm-device "/dev/dri/renderD128"
  }

For more info on configuration options, see
