This looks like a driver problem. Can you post the output of "dmesg | grep -w 'drm|r600|radeon'" ? I seem to recall that hardware acceleration on radeon/amdgpu requires proprietary microcode, even when using the free driver. Maybe that is related? signature.asc Description: PGP signature

Can you run the “locale” command and post the result? Likewise for “env | grep LC”. Also, how did you install Guix? Thanks, Ludo’.

However, I would hope that development versions can easily be packaged, either from the command-line using ‘--with-source’¹, or by defining a package variant as in: (define emacs-git (package (inherit emacs) (source …))) Thanks, Ludo’. ¹ https://www.gnu.org/software/guix/manual/html_node/Package-Transformation-Options.html
Re: Problems with guile
Hello Jone, Joneskribis: > After comment string in ~/.guile "(use-modules (ice-9 readline))" > guile starts, but does not highlight matching brackets as before. The (ice-9 readline) module is now part of the ‘guile-readline’ package. Thus, to get that functionality, you need to run: guix package -i guile-readline HTH! Ludo’.

Could you show ‘%load-path’ and ‘%load-compiled-path’ by evaluating them in a ‘guile’ REPL? Thanks, Oleg. signature.asc Description: PGP signature
