I've run Hyprland several times on Devuan. Stable and Ceres. There are services that you have to start in the Hyprland config or else you won't be able to run them. Its not like systemd, where systemd automatically starts and handles most services. pipewire has to be started in the hyprland config with sysv or else you won't have it when you log into hyprland.

I have Cinnamon, Hyprland and xlibre installed on Devuan Ceres with sysvinit. When I go to run an x11 app in Hyprland, I get the error about 'unable to open display "" '. The app opens fine on Cinnamon with xlibre. I'm just drawing a blank trying to remember what I need to start with Hyprland when I start Hyprland. Hard to make sense of Google results as most are from 16 plus years ago.

What was your outcome with the package in the devuan excalibur repo?

Glad I found this thread. I'm running Ceres(sysv) and Hyprland and added all pipewire packages and then added this to my hyprland.conf and bluetooth works as it does on Sid(systemd) with Hyprland

exec-once = wireplumber &
exec-once = pipewire &
exec-once = pipewire-pulse &

I didn't run bluetooth back in the Debian sysv days before systemd so wasn't sure.
