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’.

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

gnu/system/shadow.scm has:
(".guile" ,(plain-file "dot-guile"
"(cond ((false-if-exception (resolve-interface '(ice-9 readline)))
so we might want to fix this systemwide

Re: Wayland setup
Hi!
I finally got Weston to ... fill my screen with a blocky mess and flood
STDERR with failure.
To recap:
- use-modules freedesktop and xorg
- global packages: xorg-server-xwayland wayland weston %base-packages
- add "weston-launch" group
- add user to weston-launch
- add user to "input" group
- take care of XDG_RUNTIME_DIR:
export XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=/tmp/${UID}-runtime-dir;
mkdir "${XDG_RUNTIME_DIR}"
chmod 0700 "${XDG_RUNTIME_DIR}
I might just add that to .bash_profile or try to put both that and
"weston-launch" in a script; rekado suggested this should be a service,
but the documentation and examples (mainly looking at
gnu/services/base.scm) leave me puzzled.
Though now I wonder, what would elogind do, if I had it installed?
The running Weston fills the log with repetitions of:
---
radeon: Failed to allocate a buffer:
radeon:size : 1048576 bytes
radeon:alignment : 4096 bytes
radeon:domains : 2
radeon:flags : 4
---
with a few interspersed:
[17:53:53.145] queueing pageflip failed: Invalid argument
and
EE r600_texture.c:1419 r600_texture_transfer_map - failed to create
temporary texture to hold untiled copy
Meanwhile, weston-launch brings up a functional session on my Ubuntu
17.04; it doesn't seem to be a general problem with my graphics card.

Thanks a lot for sharing these forays into Guix' uncharted waters :-)

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?
