Ly
Appearance
Ly is a lightweight TUI (ncurses-like) display manager for Linux and BSD, designed with portability in mind (e.g. it does not require systemd to run).
Installation
Dependencies
For the full Ly experience, it is recommended to install the brightnessctl package, which is responsible for managing screen brightness settings.
Usage
Note You need to disable your current display manager. For example, if LightDM is the current display manager, you can disable it with
systemctl disable lightdm.service.Make sure to enable ly.service so Ly will be started at boot.
Configuration
All the configuration can be found in the /etc/ly/config.ini file. This file is fully commented, and includes the default values.
