Yes, I think we could start with whatever we have and then augment it. It would be nice to release a 0.9.1 soonish that would include GDM and GNOME-Shell (and NM.) >> > How do I change slim/wicd to gdm/networkmanager? >> >> There’s no GuixSD service for GDM yet, but that’s another thing we >> should look into it soon. > GDM can't start the X server (it hardcode /usr/bin/X, etc.) now, my plan > is to add an 'xorg-service' for '/run/setuid-programs/X' and then patch > GDM to use that instead. Shouldn’t we do something like ‘slim-service’ does, i.e., give GDM the name of the X server program via a config file or whatever? Having /run/setuid-programs/X is likely to be insufficient because X needs to be passed an xorg.conf file that specifies the search path for Xorg modules, etc. >> 宋文武, I noticed that ‘network-manager-service’ is undocumented >> in the >> manual; could you add it under “Networking”? > OK, will do it. Great, thanks! Ludo’.
