 hmenke | On Xorg these problems are not there (I think). However, touchpad gestures don't work on Xorg. | 13:20:16 |
 -(๐eloฯ)- | Jan Tojnar: Does chrome-gnome-shell work as intended? If so, what is the required settings for one to have it work properly with Gnome Web and Firefox nightly downloaded from the mozilla-overlay? | 23:53:18 |

 Jan Tojnar | -(GNU/โฯ)-: It should work with firefox from nixpkgs, firefox from other sources probably will not work | 00:37:34 |

-(GNU/โฯ)-: It should work with firefox from nixpkgs, firefox from other sources probably will not work That's unfortunate ๐ | 00:40:04 |
| Jan Tojnar | -(GNU/โฯ)-: In particular, it needs a native messaging host description (https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/37e366dd8c416fbe9a6f30d7b00e311041935f54/pkgs/applications/networking/browsers/firefox/wrapper.nix#L59) and firefox-bin does not not respect that configuration | 00:40:09 |
| Jan Tojnar | (assuming mozilla-overlay is based on firefox-bin) | 00:40:35 |
| Jan Tojnar | well, you can also try to install the native messaging host description manually | 00:41:05 |
| -(๐eloฯ)- | Don't know, have to check and read because I am new to this scope | 00:41:23 |
| -(๐eloฯ)- | Appreciate the answer though! | 00:41:31 |
| Jan Tojnar | In reply to @jtojnar:matrix.org
well, you can also try to install the native messaging host description manually That would consist of copying/linking the JSON file from the chrome-gnome-shell package to ~/.mozilla/native-messaging-hosts/ IIRC | 00:45:50 |
| Jan Tojnar | -(GNU/โฯ)-: and you would have to do that manually each time chrome-gnome-shell updates (so a pain, unless you automated it using home-manager or something) | 00:46:56 |
| -(๐eloฯ)- | Will do it through home-manager then! | 00:47:49 |
| Jan Tojnar | -(GNU/โฯ)-: this will be interesting then https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/47340#issuecomment-440645870 | 00:48:56 |
| Jan Tojnar | we really need to document it in the manual, though | 00:49:09 |
| -(๐eloฯ)- | Will make sure to do it if I succeed | 00:49:33 |
| -(๐eloฯ)- | Where should I send the text? | 03:15:00 |
| Jan Tojnar | -(GNU/โฯ)-: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/master/doc/builders/packages/firefox.section.md | 04:09:17 |
| -(๐eloฯ)- | Interesting, have to rewrite then because I wrote it based on the Gnome section of the manual | 04:10:08 |
| -(๐eloฯ)- | Will git pull sometime tomorrow if I have some extra time | 04:10:19 |

| Byron Gibson | Hello! I'm doing a fresh installation of NixOS 21.05 from a Live USB. The Live USB is using Gnome4 (or Gnome 40 or whatever it is these days), which I want to use in my installation.
However, the property services.xserver.desktopManager.gnome.enable still refers to Gnome3 in the docs - https://search.nixos.org/options?channel=21.05&show=services.xserver.desktopManager.gnome.enable&from=0&size=50&sort=relevance&query=desktopmanager.gnome
Is that just a typo in the docs left over from NixOS 20.09, or is there some other property required to select Gnome4?
| 05:55:28 |
 jonringer | gnome is just now gnome. if there's a reference to gnome3 then it probably got missed | 05:58:18 |
| Jan Tojnar | yeah, probably did not find it because it is spelled wrong (I grep'd for all-caps GNOME) | 06:27:51 |
| Jan Tojnar | opened https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/126045 to fix that | 06:36:24 |
|  Pacman99 changed their display name from Parthiv Seetharaman to Pacman99. | 17:35:44 |

 MartiniMoe | Hi guys, I am using a laptop with intel hd graphics 4000. I have the feeling my gnome may not be completely gpu accelerated. Can anyone of you give me some directions on how to enable hardware acceleration on how to check if its working? I have the following in my machine config:
hardware.opengl = {
enable = true;
extraPackages = with pkgs; [
intel-media-driver
vaapiIntel
vaapiVdpau
libvdpau-va-gl
];
};

| -(๐eloฯ)- | Jan Tojnar: Due some recent tragic event I don't think I'll be able to edit/publish my attempt to document chrome-gnome-shell. :/
You are free to do whatever you want with the following file. I'll try to post it next week or the week after on my personal blog for people to read/learn from.
