 +Do note that Lumina, just like any other window manager, needs a windowing server protocol to connect to in order to be a runnable solution.  On Hyperbola, the solution to this is not X11 but [[en:system:display_servers:xenocara|Xenocara]], and so if that was not already installed, let's do so now:
 +
 +<code bash>
 +pacman -S xenocara
 +</code>
 +
 +For the best performance with your graphics hardware, make sure you have also installed the package corresponding to your video card according to the table in the [[en:system:display_servers:xenocara#driver_installation|Driver Installation]] section of the above article.

 +Most users will need to give themselves device access rights to get working sound output, video acceleration and more. Don't miss out on configuring the fixes listed in our [[en:system:init_systems:openrc#groups|OpenRC groups]] section.
 +
 +For some more specific setup, such as to make devices like laptop trackpads more comfortable, the configuration files for Xenocara allow for a lot of low-level adaptability. One improvement over being reliant on D-Bus is that a lot of details of device initialization was, with D-Bus, hidden away from users and had less exposition of their configuration. To specifically control the setup of a laptop trackpad, a configuration section such as the below could be added to a new file created at
 +
 +''/usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/50-synaptics.conf'':
 +
