- tanin-greet.install: post_remove restores the previous greetd config — removing the package no longer leaves greetd pointing at a dead binary - aur-autoupdate: skip packages when the AUR RPC is unreachable instead of building blind (fail closed) - build-tanin-repo: per-package makepkg logs instead of >/dev/null - live ISO: drop sshd.service enablement (root has an empty password on the live medium); encoded in bootstrap-profile.sh so it survives re-bootstrap - gtklock config: de-personalize hardcoded /home/karim path, mark as not-yet-packaged reference - tanin-desktop PKGBUILD: correct stale AUR-vs-extra comments (gtklock, awww, cliphist are in extra), document the eww-git provides=eww contract - docs/distribution.md: mark SigLevel TrustAll as temporary/insecure, add repo-signing TODO (repo-add -s, SigLevel Required), tick done roadmap items - tanin-calendar + niri-config.kdl: pending session work Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
tanin-greet
TANINUX's custom GTK4 greeter for greetd. Built because ReGreet's layout is fixed — this gives full control to match the design:
- a black top bar like the eww topbar (
TANINUX· clock · power) - a wallpaper background under a dark scrim
- user + password centered as pills (Fuji violet focus ring, Enter submits)
- the session selector tucked tiny in the bottom-right corner
It speaks the greetd IPC directly (create_session → auth → start_session) and is
hosted by cage.

Preview (no logout, no real auth)
./dev/preview.sh # uses your current wallpaper path
./dev/preview.sh /path/to/wall.jpg
# screenshot lands at /tmp/tanin-greet.png ; override output with GREET_OUTPUT=HDMI-A-1
The greeter renders even without greetd; dev/mockgreetd.py provides a fake
socket so the password prompt and login flow work for a full dry-run.
Env overrides (used by the preview)
TANIN_GREET_CSSstylesheet path (default/etc/greetd/tanin-greet.css)TANIN_GREET_BGwallpaper path (default/usr/share/backgrounds/tanin/login.jpg)TANIN_GREET_SESSIONSsessions dir (default/usr/share/wayland-sessions)TANIN_GREET_BRANDtop-bar text (defaultTANINUX)
Install (on the distro)
makepkg -si
sudo systemctl enable greetd # disable any other DM first
Drop a login wallpaper at /usr/share/backgrounds/tanin/login.jpg (or ship a
tanin-backgrounds package). Without one, the greeter shows a dark scrim.
Notes
- Sessions are read from
/usr/share/wayland-sessions/*.desktop; Niri is the default selection. Users are read from/etc/passwd(uid 1000–65533, real shell). - Icons (
avatar-default-symbolic,system-shutdown-symbolic) come fromadwaita-icon-theme.
