How to get regreet to read config file?

[10leej]

So I'm loading regreet via greetd and cage in /etc/greetd/config.toml I'm calling

command = " cage -s -- regreet --config /etc/greetd/regreet.toml"

however all I'm getting is the blinding light theme

I edited your question to enable TOML syntax highlighting. Now, you can see that there's an extra double-quote at the end of line 7. That's probably causing ReGreet to fail loading the config. Further, there's probably a typo in "backgrounds" in the path, where you're using "backrounds".

Well actually I created that path and mistypled it, thanks fr catching the double quote that seems to have been it
