sysupdate.sh's config sync now closes several gaps where a fresh or drifted
machine would silently be missing pieces that config-updater can't reach
(it only copies files, never installs packages or touches /etc):
- _ensure_plymouth_regreet: detects whether the machine is still on
greetd+tuigreet (or no greeter at all) and offers to run the existing
migrate-to-greetd.sh tool rather than duplicating its logic.
- _ensure_astal_menu_deps / _ensure_hyprshutdown: detect and offer to install
the AUR/pacman packages astal-menu and the new power binds need but that
config-updater never installs on its own.
- _redeploy_usr_configs: hypr/usr/ is intentionally excluded from the
automated sync to protect per-device customisation (monitors.lua,
wallpaper.conf), which left feature/bind updates in the dotfiles template
with no path onto an already-provisioned machine. Adds an explicit,
file-by-file dialog checklist (device-specific files default off) so those
updates can be pulled in deliberately instead of hand-copied.
Diagnosed the intermittent "login won't take input / frozen cursor" on this
dual-AMD-GPU box: cage (wlroots) could pick the display-less iGPU, and amdgpu
hardware cursors can freeze. regreet-session.sh now:
- pins WLR_DRM_DEVICES to the first DRM card with a connected output (portable,
evaluated live — no hard-coded PCI path),
- sets WLR_NO_HARDWARE_CURSORS=1 (fixes the stuck cursor),
- runs cage with `-m last` so the login card centres on a single monitor instead
of the default "extend", which stretched the canvas across all three monitors
and left the card floating in the middle of the span.
sysupdate.sh now deploys /etc/greetd config (config/regreet/session, not PAM) when
greetd is the active greeter, using the single primed sudo credential.

- hyprshutdown wired into the graceful power flow (Super+Shift+O logout,
Super+Ctrl+O power off, Super+Ctrl+Shift+O reboot) so apps close cleanly with a
UI before Hyprland exits, instead of a hard systemctl call. Added to the hyprlua
package list.
- Scrolling layout: default window is now 76% of the monitor along the scroll axis
(column_width 0.5 -> 0.76).
- sysupdate.sh: primes sudo once at startup and keeps the credential alive for the
whole run, so no later step re-prompts.

The hypr/ sync removed each live item with `rm -rf` before `cp`. For
hyprland.lua this opened a window where the file was absent; if Hyprland's
live config watcher reloaded during it, it errored ("cannot open
hyprland.lua") and wrote out its fallback hyprland.conf stub, which then
leaked into the repo.
Stage each item into a temp dir on the same filesystem and `mv` it into
place — for files this is an atomic rename(2), so the watcher never sees
hyprland.lua missing. Directories are cleared first (mv can't replace a
non-empty dir), but those aren't watched config files.

One-by-one pacman/AUR/flatpak updater with a dialog-based package
selector, Arch RSS news matching per package, optional --AI mode that
sends news to Claude and generates a timestamped /updatescript-<ts>.sh,
and kernel-based baseline detection when /updatestate doesn't exist yet.
