Kyle Gospo•8/30/23, 10:13 PM

fedora deck

Ttryhardsoccermomswag so it would be `nix profile install nixpkgs#<package>`

Vosian•8/30/23, 10:14 PM

This is what worked for me.

Ddreamyuki meanwhile nix is not a container

akdev•8/30/23, 10:16 PM

There is a nix container tho

akdev•8/30/23, 10:16 PM

Vosian•8/30/23, 10:17 PM

I'd prefer to run as many packages as I can via nix instead of distrobox, precisely because they avoid the container overlay, but I was able to get the theming/cursor issues to be consistent between bazzite and apps in a fedora container by basically installing kde on the container using sudo dnf groupinstall "KDE Plasma Workspaces"sudo dnf groupinstall "KDE Plasma Workspaces" That may be overkill though.

Vosian•8/30/23, 10:17 PM

I'd certainly like to get the cursor to work with straight nix on bazzite, but I'm not sure what I need to install for that. I've tried a bunch of things, but nothing's worked so far.

Kyle Gospo•8/30/23, 10:17 PM

you can also add /usr/share/icons and /usr/share/themes as volumes to distrobox

Kyle Gospo•8/30/23, 10:17 PM

that's what bazzite-arch does

Kyle Gospo•8/30/23, 10:18 PM

then it's 100% consistent

Vosian•8/30/23, 10:18 PM

Oh. that's nice.

Ttryhardsoccermomswag so it would be `nix profile install nixpkgs#<package>`

dreamyuki•8/30/23, 10:18 PM

thanks for the guide
i have no idea how to use nix profile

tryhardsoccermomswag•8/30/23, 10:18 PM

~~neither do i lol~~

KKyle Gospo you can also add /usr/share/icons and /usr/share/themes as volumes to distrobox

Vosian•8/30/23, 10:18 PM

If there was a way to do that with directly nix packages, that would be great.

Vosian•8/30/23, 10:23 PM

@nickname will the documentation for the nix profile stuff be going here - https://universal-blue.org/images/bazzite/FAQ/#nix? Or somewhere else?

NIXPKGS_ALLOW_UNFREE=1 nix profile install --impure nixpkgs#<package>

NIXPKGS_ALLOW_UNFREE=1 nix profile install --impure nixpkgs#<package>

tryhardsoccermomswag•8/30/23, 10:50 PM

Ttryhardsoccermomswag so it's `NIXPKGS_ALLOW_UNFREE=1 nix profile install --impure nixpkgs#<package>`
