Dear Guix Community,
I hope this message finds you well. I'm currently setting up Guix on my
Lenovo X220 laptop and would greatly appreciate any guidance or tips for
optimizing performance on older hardware.
Here are some details about my setup:
- Laptop: Lenovo X220 (Intel i7, 16GB RAM)
- Window Manager: EXWM
- Primary Usage: I will primarily be using command-line tools and Emacs,
with a few graphical applications (such as browsers).
Since this is an older machine, I want to make sure I’m configuring
things in a way that balances performance with functionality. In
particular, I was wondering if it’s possible to disable the display
manager and just log in via tty, bypassing the graphical login screen
entirely?
For context, I’ve posted a link to my current configuration:
[https://codeberg.org/mgd/mgd-guix/src/branch/main/config.scm]. Any
pointers on how to achieve the above or other performance tips for my
setup would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance for your help
