Hello Nixians,
I've installed NixOs a number of days ago. So far I really like it!
I've read the documentation I could find, but I'm left with a number of

I was recently looking for info on this too. I'll ask a more general
question: Is there any other piece of softrware in nixpkgs that's based

I would have gone to systemd.services. Slightly uglier looking (bigger
attrset), but should run after the kernel has loaded its modules. I'd
say it would be ideal to have it be "PartOf = networking.target" and/or
"Before = dhcpd.service" (or whatever networking thingy you use).

If that was indeed the problem, the way to "keep" windows working is to
reinstall it in AHCI mode. Its recovery tools may or may not be able to
fix that too.

That's stupid genius in my eyes. What I'd been doing is to find a way to
make software look in /etc/xdg before ~/.config, with... varying degrees
of success. Is there anywhere we could read your implementation?

My WiFi module lives within networking.wireless. I don't have any
reference to either wpa_supplicant or networkmanager.

I hereby propose the tool to be renamed and refactocopied to

Oh dear, I had been thinking about 1 and 2 lately...
On systemd, I don't think that it's worth it to even try to port
dependent software. Nix is smart enough to warn about/fix dependencies.
And "porting" the actual unit files sounds easy IMO, systemd has good
documentation on unit files that
Couldn't this become a kind of dependency hell? I remember from Gentoo
that having dependencies across overlays is not a fun problem to solve.
However, Exherbo mostly solved this by having overlays be analogous to

I think It could be worthwhile to look at openSUSE's Tumbleweed setup
for rolling releases. They use openQA for automatic testing of every
package in the distribution, and then release the binaries as snapshots
for users to update. Pretty similar to how nixpkgs git -> Hydra -> cache
works, with
I think it would be handy though. After all, this is NixOS we're talking
about. We already have system.stateVersion for protecting stateful data,
and fixing the rest of the system is only a rollback away. Why not make
the alias/symlink without making it the default?

AFAIK those restrictions were recently dropped, Debian's firefox is now
branded Firefox instead of Iceweasel. It probably should be changed in
nixpkgs too to prevent further confusion.

My setup is also very similar. I have a configuration.nix with all the

Is there any reason not to use `mkdir -p`, to spare yourself the if?

And while you're at it, you should probably check `lspci -k` on the
working system to see what kernel module it uses, in case it's missing
from NixOS.
