Before the error if the wrong default desktop was chosen would be:
/nixpkgs-channels/lib/modules.nix:282:11:
Default desktop manager ($(defaultDM)) not found.
which has the string interpolation done incorreclty. Now that is fixed
and it is more user-friendly as:
/nixpkgs-channels/lib/modules.nix:282:11:
Default desktop manager (gnome) not found.
Probably you want to change
services.xserver.desktopManager.default = "gnome";
to one of
services.xserver.desktopManager.default = "gnome3";
services.xserver.desktopManager.default = "none";
- added numlock on boot switch
- simply add :
services.xserver.displayManager.sddm.autoNumlock = true;
to configuration.nix and sddm will start
with numlock enabled.
- add missing types in module definitions
- add missing 'defaultText' in module definitions
- wrap example with 'literalExample' where necessary in module definitions
This reverts most of 89e983786a, as those references are sanitized now.
Fixes#10039, at least most of it.
The `sane` case wasn't fixed, as it calls a *function* in pkgs to get
the default value.
The three KDE package sets now have circular dependencies between them,
so they can only be built if they are merged into a single package set
during evaluation.
- if xserver.tty and/or display are set to null, then don't specify
them, or the -logfile argument in the xserverArgs
- For lightdm, we set default tty and display to null and we determine
those at runtime based on arguments passed. This is necessary because
we run multiple X servers so they can't all be on the same display
These options allow setting the start and stop scripts for the display
manager. Making these configurable is necessary to allow some hardware
configurations. Upstream ships empty scripts by default, anyway.
Now the default way to define NixOS window manager modules is to use
mkEnableOption to describe the module itself.
In this commit, all files on nixos/modules/services/x11/window-managers
are changed.
