 ## Recommended use flags (useflags)
+- **The recommended useflags are not required, this is a more out of the box experience with these**
 - Pipewire is used, alsa and pulseaudio are disabled (enabling them won't hurt).
 - Init system is not assumed or considered so disabling systemd should be done in make.conf, same with session managers (elogind is recommended).
 
 ## Making the dot-files work
+- elogind is expected to be installed and run as a service on OpenRC to set ```XDG_RUNTIME_DIR```
+  - NOT recommended: seatd will require more manual setup
 - pipewire, pipewire-pulse, and wireplumber must be started after a dbus-session is created and before Hyprland is launched.
 
 If you want to start after logging into tty1 you can do something like this.

+## Known Issues
+- If Hyprland is just blank, rebuild Quickshell (emerge -q gui-apps/quickshell)
+- ```Hyprland: error while loading shared libraries: libhyprgraphics.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory```
+  - The Hyprland live ebuild sometimes has linkage issues, deleting _Hyprland_ and _hyprland_ from ```/usr/bin/``` and then re-emerging usually fixes this.
