getting nmtui to work on artix (runit init system)

So basically, I tried to install nmtui, and when I tried to run it, there was an error in the terminal that said
Code: [Select]
NetworkManager is not running.
I already had that installed, and even added it to the runit daemons to try and get nmtui to work, but to no avail. How do I go about fixing this issue?

You say you installed NetworkManager and added it to the runit demons, but you didn't say if it is actually running.  I use openrc, so I can't comment on runit, but are you sure NetworkManager is running?  Check the runit log to be sure there weren't any problems trying to launch it.

What's the output of

Code: [Select]
sudo sv status NetworkManager

NM was very easy for me to set up on runit. I just installed networkmanager and networkmanager-runit and symlinked /etc/runit/sv/NetworkManager to /run/runit/service and it was running. So I second checking that it actually is running, that it's symlinked correctly, etc.

Did you happen to install networkmanager-runit
