Chrome Remote Desktop with DWM on OpenRC?

Hi there, trying to get this setup and have been scouring docs as such: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/chrome-remote-desktop but I still am getting the following output when I attempt to connect my machine. Any pointers are greatly appreciated.

Code: [Select]

Here is what I have in the config file:
Code: [Select]
# You will have to uncomment one of the following lines for CRD to work
# Remove the # and save the file


export $(dbus-launch)

#execdwm

exec /usr/bin/startx

Not sure what kind of headache I'm getting myself into here...

xf86-video-dummy needs to be added as a dependancy. /usr/bin/xorg/Xorg cannot be found in Arch and causes Xorg to fail when launching CRD as a service.
The required Xorg binary for Arch is /usr/bin/Xorg and the CRD service will start correctly if you create the symlink /usr/bin/xorg/Xorg to this Xorg binary.
