Re: xmodmap doesn't before pressing any button keyboard
I also use EXWM, and made good experiences with setting keyboard remapping options directly in my system's config.scm (via the :options of keyboard-layout, which sets XKB options; see the manual for examples: https://guix.gnu.org/de/manual/en/html_node/Keyboard-Layout.html). However, I just use it to remap capslock to escape (for vim/evil-mode), so if you need more, I'm not sure if it'll work for you — I've never used xmodmap, I'm not sure if you can do everything using XKB options that xmodmap can do — at first glance xmodmap seems more general. ~stuebinm On 18.07.21 16:41, Akib Azmain Turja wrote: I have setup my Emacs iwth EXWM. I am trying to remap several keys to avoid repetitive strain injury (RSI), also known as Emacs pinky. To accomplish that, I am using xmodmap. It works perfectly when I invoke the command directly. However it doesn't work when I put it in Emacs startup files. After several days of research, I discovered that xmodmap only works when I have pressed atleast one key in my keyboard. Any solutions?

guix system docker-image: nix not found
Hi all, I've been playing around with docker containers and guix (both to package software, and to eventually fit "building guix packages" into a docker-based CI pipeline). The guix manual mentions that apart from `guix pack`, `guix system` can also build docker images of whole system configs, which seemed fitting, but it lacks an example, and I'm a bit unclear on some points. In particular, I don't know what to set for the bootloader and file-systems options in the system config, as neither really applies to a docker container (I tried not setting them at all, but guix doesn't allow that). When trying with dummy values (taken from my own system config), `guix system docker-image system.scm` fails to build the guix-docker-image.tar.gz.drv, and the build log contains /gnu/store/...bash-5.0.16/bin/bash: nix: command not found which doesn't really help. I'm on a current guix system, i.e. `guix describe` gives: guix 069399e repository URL: https://git.savannah.gnu.org/git/guix.git branch: master commit: 069399ee9dbf75b7c89583f03346a63b2cfe4ac6 Thanks! ~stuebinm [1] https://guix.gnu.org/manual/en/html_node/Invoking-guix-system.html OpenPGP_signature Description: OpenPGP digital signature
guix workflow not found?
Hi, (I hope this is the right place for this question) I'm on a newly installed Guix machine, and have done the following: guix pull guix install gwl guix workflow The output of the last is: guix: workflow: command not found Try `guix --help' for more information As far as I can see from the gwl installation instructions [1], this should work out of the box. However, from inside guix repl I also cannot load the (guix scripts workflow) module, so I assume that perhaps the GUIX_EXTENSIONS_PATH variable is set incorrectly, even if it says it shouldn't be necessary to set it manually when on a guix system (I don't really know what to set it to, however ...). But I'm relatively new to both guix and guile, so I may have also just missed something obvious. Can anyone help me out?
