Re: Anyone using Guix + Gnome + Japanese-Input, please let me know!
Thank you everyone! ありがとうございました! I deleted the whole ~/.cache directory, and restarted my computer - it seems to have done the trick. (Although not 100% certain because my "experiment" was not completely controlled...) It's a travesty that such a simple thing fails without a lot of explanation... Maybe some kind of automatic end-user testing is what we need? If there is a set of UI tests I can run frequently, that would be great! -Yasu On Tue, 2022-05-31 at 08:22 -0400, Dominic Martinez wrote: > > yasu writes: > > > It must has been a while since I last used Japanese input on my > > Linux > > system - I have just realized that I can no longer select > > Japanese > > Input (Anthy) from Gnome on my Guix OS. > > Can you try running ~rm -rf ~/.cache/ibus~?

nvme0n1p1 (NVME/M2/SSD) boot device recovery
Hello! I have just had a horrible experience of my Asus motherboard (TUF GAMING X570-PLUS) suddenly not booting...The NVME device (CSSD- M2B05GPG2VN) was no longer availalbe on the list of bootable devices from BIOS menu of the motherboard. I still don't know exactly what happened but my suspicion is that something triggered the 'reset' of the motherboard (may have been that the cr2032 battery went bad? I replaced it) Here is what I did to solve it: - I downloaded SystemRescue https://www.system-rescue.org/ , created a USB thumbdrive boot device. - After booting from it, I ran efibootmgr -c -d /dev/nvme0n1p1 -p 1 -L "Guix" -l "\EFI\Guix\grubx64.efi" - Finally, I was able to select the NVME boot device. It seemes that onboard ethernet (Probaly RealTek) completely died at the same time... I tried various BIOS recovery procedure such as triggeron ON/OFF of LAN from Bios Settings screen, updating to the latest BIOS, etc, - none of it worked. So I am using a USB3.0 Ethernet Adaptor right now. I hope this memo will be of use to someone in the future! -Yasu
Re: Installation: Load non-free wifi firmware (iwlwifi)
This is also an old topic, but we need lesser-help-guix@... The help-guix@... seems so much against even discussion of such things...

Re: Bug? coqide missing? (in package coq, version 8.11.2)
Hi Julien, O, I see, I didn't know anything about these "sub-packages" that follow colon. Is there anything we can do to make it less confusing? One way would be to allow the user to type coqide, or whatever the executable they please, and search for all the possible package names and suggest a way to install an existing package that matches. I imagine something like: > coqide * The command coqide is provided by coq:ide. To install it, run: guix install coq:ide > :-) Yasu On Sat, 2021-03-20 at 06:48 -0400, Julien Lepiller wrote: > Hi Yasu, > > This is not a bug: coqide brings a lot of dependencies, so it's in a > separate output, as you can see with guix search or guix show.

Bug? coqide missing? (in package coq, version 8.11.2)
Hello, After installing COQ using: guix install coq I was perplexed that I could not find the coqide program. Howerver, GUIX does seem to build it: ~$ guix build coq /gnu/store/zns66i9iacpkya3mabvygykir5xwl5c4-coq-8.11.2-ide /gnu/store/n8g37cv0028wds959rjgpl5dsj3p3xl0-coq-8.11.2 ~$ ls /gnu/store/zns66i9iacpkya3mabvygykir5xwl5c4-coq-8.11.2-ide/bin coqide The fact that this coqide is not brought to user profile - is this a bug? -Yasu
Re: Bug? Haskell GHC wont' work since ghc@8.6?
Hi John, Oh, I see! I wonder if it possible to have a more convinient haskell-for-a-casual-developer like package or: parameterize the command itself, say: guix install ghc -option1=blah, -option2=blah, and provide default options as well? In the very least, a warning message explaining this after: guix install ghc Might do.

Re: Bug? Haskell GHC wont' work since ghc@8.6?
Hi John, Thank you, after installing gcc-toolchain, it worked! Then this is indeed a bug that should be very simple to fix? Just require gcc-toolchain (or some of its required features) as a GHC's dependency? I am also curious, what kind of testing (if any?) does Guix perform for packages?? Or is GHC already marked as broken? (Apology for repeated question marks :-)) ~/co/haskell-tiny-intro/exercise (master *)$ guix install gcc- toolchain...~/co/haskell-tiny-intro/exercise (master *)$ ghc a.hs[1 of 1] Compiling Main ( a.hs, a.o )Linking a ...~/co/haskell- tiny-intro/exercise (master *)$ ghc --versionThe Glorious Glasgow Haskell Compilation System, version 8.8.3 Cheers, Yasu On Sun, 2021-01-10 at 21:49 -0800, John Soo wrote: > Hi yasu, > Compiling with ghc requires a c toolchain (like gcc-toolchain) > installed to work.

Bug? Haskell GHC wont' work since ghc@8.6?
This one ought to be very simple to solve (or at least confirm). Does anyone use Haskell daily? I am a very casual user of Haskell (GHC) and when I tried to compile something just now, I noticed that it can't even compile the simplest possible program..., unless I downgrade to ghc@8.4 or lower. Newer versions, including ghc@8.6.5, didn't work, throwing the error message below instead. ~/co/haskell-tiny-intro/exercise (master *)$ cat a.hs main = putStrLn "a" ~/co/haskell-tiny-intro/exercise (master *)$ ghc a.hs Linking a ... .gcc-wrapped: error: unrecognized command line option '-no-pie' `gcc' failed in phase `C Compiler'. (Exit code: 1) Cheers, Yasu
Working Configuration for Wayland Auto-Login?
Hi!
Does anyone have a working example configuration that enables Wayland
Auto-Login?
I tried to use:
(auto-login-user "yasu")
(auto-login-session "gnome.desktop")
by guessing from the description at:
https://guix.gnu.org/manual/en/html_node/X-Window.html
But whenever I added those below the remember-last-user? line at:
(service sddm-service-type
(sddm-configuration
(display-server "wayland")
(remember-last-user? #t)
))
The session changed to X11, and was not Wayland anymore.
I have just noticed that Wayalnd is way faster than X11 for my terminal
program Kitty. The mouse cursor seems much smoother as well.
Let me paste my system description at the bottom.
Cheers,
Yasu

Re: Please recommend zero-hassle video card for GUIX
Just to follow up, here's what I did:
- Removed my original NVidia GTX 750 video card
- Installed the new AMD RX580 video card
- Added an unofficial Guix channel to use the "regular"
Linux Kernel (instead of Linux-Libre)
My new Guix experience is now a world apart from the old!
- It does't freeze like every 30 minutes anymore...
- It works like any other normal computer! (Great 2D/3D/video
performance!)
Cheers,
Yasu

Re: How do I install neovim plugins?
Hi Julien,
Thank you for the pointer, here is what I did to make it work:
set runtimepath+=/home/yasu/.guix-profile/share/vim/vimfiles
The plugin and neovim were installed as below:
guix package --install=vim-airline
guix package --install=nvim
But this seems rather "imperative" and is not what I expected to do,
after spending many weeks trying home-manager from NixOS :-)
excerpt from .config/nixpkgs/home.nix
...
programs.neovim = {
enable = true;
plugins = [
pkgs.vimPlugins.vim-airline
pkgs.vimPlugins.vim-nix
];
...
In the Nix world, I think people were not seeing much point of:
nix-env -i
which seems to be their equivalent of:
guix package --install=
As an alternative, 'home-manger' seemed popular.
Would you say the same for Guix as well?

If you install plugins in your profile, you can add:
set runpath+=/home/user/.guix-profile/share/nvim/site
In your .config/nvem/init.vim
I also have a guix-home-manager at
https://framagit.org/tyreunom/guix-home-manager but it's more
involved.

I see some vim plugin packages for guix but I have no idea how I
enable them in the neovim (nvim) that I installed in Guix.
In NixOS I just used "home manager" and modified some existing
template I found to add more plugins.
