somewhat recent proprietary nvidia drivers have horribly broken my desktop. I was only using them because nouveau had been unstable with my GPU previously. So I thought I'd just give nouveau another go before hauling myself across nvidia's coals, so I removed the line:

services.xserver.videoDrivers = [ "nvidia" ];

I thought this would be enough to switch me over to nouveau but I still appear to have nvidida_drm module loaded after update and reboot

Is there something else that could be forcing the nvidia drivers on me?

whoops, had nixos-hardware.nixosModules.common-gpu-nvidia-nonprime as a module in my flake.nix

I guess this just was a no-op on all my non nvidia-GPU machines (which, incidentally, all of my future machines will be ! )

@silasdavis:one.ems.host@silasdavis:one.ems.hostsigh, nouveau still immediately halts after promisingly getting past the gnome login screen with everything rendered okay...08:12:32
@sebtm:lodere.esSebTMHey, a bit of a personal-workflow question: Normally I'm on nixos-unstable, until staging-next is build I'm using gnome-46 with the extension update as own branch. How can I safely still receive updates from unstable channel but not risk a mass rebuild like when rebasing on nixos-unstable? 🤔11:45:15

@vcunat:matrix.orgvcunatI don't think that's possible. You'll rebuild at least all of gnome (including some webkits), so quite a lot.17:08:25

Later today almost all *-linux binaries for staging-next branch should get to cache.nixos.org, so using that might be your best shot if you want the new stuff already.
