[Nix-dev] (no subject)
Dear NixOS followers, I just installed the nixOS virtualbox from https://d3g5gsiof5omrk.cloudfront.net/nixos/17.03/nixos-17.03.1449.2e983f14f6/nixos-17.03.1449.2e983f14f6-x86_64-linux.ova and tried to install Plamsa5 tiling https://github.com/faho/kwin-tiling I cloned the repository as described (successfully installed git for this) and then run the command below, which however breaks with an error which I could not spot anywhere on the web. Could you help? I here from so many that they use nixos without crucial problems, so I guess this can also be solved easily? $ plasmapkg2 --type kwinscript -i . Package type "KWin/Script" not found No metadata file in package "/home/demo" "/home/demo/" Error: Installation of /home/demo failed: No metadata file in package: /home/demo Any help is highly appreciated, thanks a lot, Stephan ___ nix-dev mailing list nix-dev@lists.science.uu.nl https://mailman.science.uu.nl/mailman/listinfo/nix-dev
[Nix-dev] virutalbox ova - screen settings reset on every restart
Dear NixOS followers, I tried to use the nixOS virtualbox from https://d3g5gsiof5omrk. cloudfront.net/nixos/17.03/nixos-17.03.1449.2e983f14f6/nixos-17.03.1449.2e983f14f6-x86_64-linux.ova It starts correctly, however, if I try to adapt the display scaling or resolution to adapt for my 4k screen, the setting is lost on a restart. (As KDE tells me to restart for the settings to become active, I never actually see a rescaled KDE, but everything is very tiny). So the question how to make these display settings be preserved upon restart. (I successfully isntalled git and okular and cloned some repositories and stuff - everything is preserved as it should, only the display settings seem to get lost sofar) Any help is highly appreciated!, best, Stephan ___ nix-dev mailing list nix-dev@lists.science.uu.nl https://mailman.science.uu.nl/mailman/listinfo/nix-dev
