And hell your documentation is lacking. There is a single software center currently in beta to install software with gui. And the nix-env version does work well actually but the configuration.nix install is hardly documented and not intuitive. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [β] Shareni@programming.dev 5 points 2 years ago (1 child) And the nix-env version does work well actually https://stop-using-nix-env.privatevoid.net/ permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [β] Johanno@feddit.de [S] 5 points 2 years ago Nice.

And fixing the ownership of the home folder. I could get working iscsi. And now I think I am happy with what is working. Screen tearing is a bit of a issue thanks to Nvidia and my 2 monitor setup, but it isn't as bad as on other oses. permalink fedilink source parent
