@mwoodpatrickmx:matrix.orgmwoodpatrickmxNixOS specific issues I'm not seeing the same graphics issues on other Distributions12:53:36
@k900:0upti.meK900I don't know if there's a specific issue12:54:05
@k900:0upti.meK900But fundamentally it's just that Windows provides the Linux side d3d12 drivers12:54:28
@k900:0upti.meK900And those are dynamically linked12:54:39
@k900:0upti.meK900And don't work as-is on NixOS12:54:44
@k900:0upti.meK900Actually I think recent Nvidia should work now?12:55:03
@k900:0upti.meK900AMD definitely not12:55:15
@k900:0upti.meK900Intel I don't have12:55:23
@mwoodpatrickmx:matrix.orgmwoodpatrickmxI have Intel currently, hoping to get an NVidia digits system when released. Are there other NVidia systems where you think it might work?13:00:24
@k900:0upti.meK900I don't think those Nvidia systems can even run Windows/13:01:59
@k900:0upti.meK900* I don't think those Nvidia systems can even run Windows?13:02:00
@k900:0upti.meK900They're aarch6413:02:15
@k900:0upti.meK900Also they're likely not going to run NixOS out of the box13:02:22
@k900:0upti.meK900Because they're completely bespoke and don't have drivers in mainline13:02:33
@mwoodpatrickmx:matrix.orgmwoodpatrickmxI would be running some flavor of Linux on the digits system, I would like to be able to use NixOS but need to investigate this further with my colleagues13:04:31
@k900:0upti.meK900Then you'll have an entirely different set of issues13:07:24
@mwoodpatrickmx:matrix.orgmwoodpatrickmx mwoodpatrickmx: That's what makes life interesting 13:08:16

@marcel:envs.netMarcelIs it available though Windows updated? Until now I still had to compile it myself.20:01:45
@marcel:envs.netMarcel * 20:01:53
@k900:0upti.meK900Not yet20:03:09
@k900:0upti.meK900But I believe that bug was the blocker for wider deployment20:03:15
@marcel:envs.netMarcel Hope so 20:03:58
@niklaskorz:korz.devNiklas KorzInteresting, I was running 6.6 on WSL for a few months now and didn't hit that bug22:05:22

@sustainedrelease:matrix.orgsustainedreleaseHas anyone here successfully run VSCode in NixOS, like this article explains? https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/tutorials/wsl-vscode23:33:47
@sustainedrelease:matrix.orgsustainedreleaseRedacted or Malformed Event23:34:59
