 @linus:schreibt.jetzt | you generally have to check the module implementation | 13:57:43 |
| @linus:schreibt.jetzt | often services will use systemd's DynamicUser feature to avoid actually creating a "permanent" user, in which case you have to set serviceConfig.SupplementaryGroups = ["keys"] on the systemd service in question | 13:58:37 |

 @ask-yourself:matrix.org | I'm not sure if this is gonna turn out being about Colmena or KMonad so forgive me if this turns out being the wrong place to ask. I think it's most likely to do with Colmena though.
So I have a KMonad config in the works here: https://gitlab.com/IsaacBrown92/dotfiles/-/blob/main/modules/services/kmonad/kmonad.kbd
Here is the behaviour:
- When I modify that config then run
sudo colmena apply-local, the new keymaps are not in place.
- If I re-run
sudo colmena apply-local, the new keymaps are not in place.
- If I reboot, the new keymaps are in place.
- If instead of rebooting, I make another change to my kmonad.kbd, then run
sudo colmena apply-local, then the keymaps will be in place.
It seems very weird that the change dosn't take effect after multiple sudo colmena apply-local but does take effect if I add an arbitrary change to the file then run sudo colmena apply-local. Anybody know what is going on here?

| @ask-yourself:matrix.org | (Also worth noting, the arbitrary change itself will NOT take effect, the prior change that failed to take effect will take effect, if I repeat again with a second arbitrary change, then the prior arbitrary change will take effect.) | 16:32:05 |
 @NobbZ:matrix.org | As you didn't answer the question in the discord, does it work if you restart the relevant service manually? | 16:33:15 |
 Wanja Hentze | it could also be a nixos switch-to-configuration issue, or even a systemd issue | 16:34:27 |
| @ask-yourself:matrix.org | Oh sorry I missed this message, and I took this to be a fresh thread given now I've found some specifics about the bug. Sorry that was not an intentional double post. | 16:34:49 |
| @ask-yourself:matrix.org | To answer, I am not sure how to restart it manually. | 16:35:09 |
| @ask-yourself:matrix.org | I don't actually see it running.. | 16:35:14 |
| @ask-yourself:matrix.org | I'll show you the output. | 16:35:19 |
| @NobbZ:matrix.org | Thats fine, I didn't actually spell out the question, it was implied through a comment I did this morning | 16:35:40 |
