Thanks, I did try "users" but without success.  I think I figured out
what's wrong, though:

Re: [Nix-dev] Can't mount fstab user mounts

Have you tried users instead of user? The mount man page makes a
distinction. (The wikipedia article on fstab says something about being in
the group "users"; not sure where that came from.)

Re: [Nix-dev] Tablet stylus stopped working

2015-09-13 Thread Jeffrey David Johnson
Yeah I think you're right. Unfortunately this computer also has issues
booting from anything but the internal HDD so that's a lot of work.
Will probably just give up on using it for the current round of
presentations and figure it out later.

There might be, but if you've rebooted into known-working configurations
and it's still not functional, you're probably better off moving
straight on to testing on a different distro and computer to confirm
whether or not it's the stylus.

[Nix-dev] Tablet stylus stopped working

2015-09-13 Thread Jeffrey David Johnson
My wacom stylus recently stopped working. I wasn't doing anything
nix-related at the time (just working in Inkscape) and booting into
older generations doesn't fix it. The eraser tip and side button keep
working but nothing from the main tip. I can't get it to show up in xev
or kde_wacom_tabletfinder. Is there anywhere else to look before
assuming it's a hardware failure? This is the tablet section of my
configuration.nix:

# ...
environment.systemPackages = [
  libwacom
  xf86_input_wacom
];
services = {
  xserver = {
wacom.enable = true;
synaptics = {
  enable = true;
  twoFingerScroll = true;
};
  };
};
# ...

Thanks

[Nix-dev] ati_unfree drivers, HD 5650 mobility radeon - slow font rendering ?

2015-09-13 Thread Marc Weber
After some time (maybe 10min up to 2 hours) font rendering gets that
slow that a vim instance (gvim/vim/xterm/emacs) takes about 3 seconds
to render the fonts. I've not found a solution yet.

Does anybody have an idea what could try?

Same setup on a different machine (intel on board) works flawlessly.

I didn't try to find out the commit causing the problem yet.

I'm not aware of anything built into nix. I think you have to do it
manually, probably with preConfigure and configureScript.
