There is no alacritty installed on Live image of i3wm. So, mod+enter doesn't work.

For playing on live ISO install it.

sudo pacman -Syu alacritty

or

update -- alacritty

ISO from today?

BTW, do not install on metal, there was a calamares upstream bug, its just fix now, but not on live ISO.

@ssakgul Is kitty available in Live ISO 230305?

Check in .config/i3/config

### Applications: ###

set $preferredTerminalEmulator /usr/bin/kitty

### Start a Terminal Emulator: ###
# - You can change the preferredTerminalEmulator variable
# - Terminal can also be started using their individual keybindings

bindsym $super+Return exec $preferredTerminalEmulator
bindsym $super+t exec kitty

IDK why it is not used by live ISO? :slight_smile:
