Seriously, the learning curve of nixOS is still… exhausting. Couldn’t get it to run with plasma 6 and wayland and the documentation is so incomplete.
Edit: Typo
Are you starting fresh or did it work with another DE? Might help in tracking down the problem
Fresh install on a VM. Was a bit confused that the default was Xorg. Changing both to wayland and to Plasma 6 was too complicated for me.
Edit: Typo
With plasma 6, you need
instead of " plasmawayland", since wayland has become the default
But do I still need all that
xserver.enabled = truebusiness?At least rolling back after you broke it was easy. :)
When it’s the first thing you tried after a fresh install, it’s quite frustrating.
Oh yeah, I’ve been running nix for a week, it can’t even find plz6 after I added unstable and updated. Lost a couple hours to the attempt, rollback was 30 sec tho
That’s unfortunately true. There’s a community effort to document stuff without going through the lengthy process of getting it approved by overworked maintainers: https://nixlang.wiki
