Two streams of fixes shipped together.
Headless persistence (root cause of "Fatal: Unable to find display or
encoder during startup")
- bin/sunshine-stream-undo.sh: stop removing HEADLESS-1 on disconnect.
Create-on-connect / destroy-on-disconnect raced with Sunshine's startup
encoder probe and made every restart fail with a fatal-but-misleading
warning. The output now lives across stream sessions; sunshine-stream-
do.sh just resizes it per client.
- files/headless-prestart.conf: systemd-user drop-in that runs
'hyprctl output create headless' (non-fatal) before Sunshine starts, so
HEADLESS-1 exists before the encoder probe.
- lib/headless.sh: install_headless_prestart_dropin resolves the actual
unit name (sunshine.service or app-dev.lizardbyte.app.Sunshine.service)
and lands the drop-in under ~/.config/systemd/user/<unit>.d/.
- lib/service.sh: enable_sunshine_service calls install_headless_prestart_
dropin when STREAM_MODE=headless. Placed after ensure_sunshine_unit_
present so the unit name is settled when the drop-in is written.
- install.sh: comment noting the drop-in install is deferred to the
service-enable step.
Web UI lockdown + tunnel-friendly certs
- lib/config.sh: emits origin_web_ui_allowed = pc. Sunshine rejects web UI
requests from anywhere other than localhost regardless of bind address.
Streaming/pairing (47989) stays LAN-accessible. Inline comment documents
the SSH tunnel recipe.
- lib/certs.sh: add DNS:localhost and IP:127.0.0.1 to host cert SANs so
the tunneled https://localhost:47990 URL doesn't trigger a hostname
mismatch. Idempotency check now requires those SANs too.
Misc.
- files/sunshine.service: fallback unit also gains the prestart ExecStartPre.
- lib/service.sh: ensure_sunshine_unit_present aliases the reverse-DNS
Sunshine unit as sunshine.service when sunshine-bin's short-name unit
isn't installed.
Headless mode (new) — for KVM-attached hosts streaming to disconnected clients
- --headless / --mirror flags; default headless on hostname JARVIS, mirror elsewhere
- New lib/headless.sh installs prep-cmd hooks to ~/.local/share/omarchy-moonlight/bin
- bin/sunshine-stream-do.sh creates/resizes a Hyprland HEADLESS-1 output to the
connecting client's resolution and migrates the active workspace onto it
- bin/sunshine-stream-undo.sh tears down the headless output on disconnect and
returns the workspace to a non-headless monitor when one is available
- lib/config.sh writes capture=wlr, output_name=HEADLESS-1, and the JSON
global_prep_cmd entry referencing the installed hook paths
- lib/preflight.sh adds a preflight_headless step that checks hyprctl, jq, and
a running Hyprland session (warn-only, install can proceed)
- lib/verify.sh adds checks for the hook scripts and the wlr/global_prep_cmd
config lines
Mac client
- client/install-macos.sh: Darwin guard, Homebrew presence check, brew cask
install of Moonlight, idempotent
- client/README.md: per-platform install (macOS / Android / iOS / Apple TV /
Linux + Steam Deck) and the five-step first-pair walkthrough
Other
- jq added to the helper install set in lib/packages.sh (hooks parse Hyprland
JSON output)
- README.md rewritten to cover both modes, the new flags, the tuned defaults
per mode + per vendor, the headless internals, and the client pointer
Layers a few things on top of the initial scaffold:
- Default to sunshine-bin (precompiled, ~seconds) instead of building from
source. --from-source restores the old behavior.
- Add lib/preflight.sh: catches the gotchas before any work is done —
Wayland session, NVIDIA driver responsive, nvidia-drm.modeset, amdgpu
loaded, pipewire-pulse present, SSH-without-session warning.
- Add lib/config.sh: writes a tuned ~/.config/sunshine/sunshine.conf with
per-vendor encoder settings (NVENC P1+ll+cbr, VAAPI ultralowlatency,
QuickSync veryfast), KMS capture, pulse audio sink. Uses a
"# managed-by: omarchy-moonlight" marker; removing it hands ownership
back to the user and the installer won't touch the file again.
- Add lib/verify.sh: post-install verification of every step
(cap_sys_admin set, group resolves, udev rule present, /dev/uinput
exists, encoder reachable, service active, :47990 listening). Same
checks are reachable standalone via --doctor.
- Install runtime helpers (pipewire-pulse, vulkan-tools, libva-utils)
alongside Sunshine for diagnostics + audio.
- Uninstall handles both sunshine + sunshine-bin and the -bin moonlight
variant.
- README documents the tuning table, the new flags, and the modeset
troubleshooting path.
