Pierre Carrier | yup it did, all working great | 17:57:04 |
Pierre Carrier | well no, can't use cursor. the ld trick doesn't work, the install script cannot find any command | 19:09:16 |
K900 | Depends on how the script is implemented | 19:11:05 |
K900 | Can't really help you with that | 19:11:11 |
K900 | And it's probably not aarch64 specific either | 19:11:19 |
Pierre Carrier | nope | 19:11:24 |
Pierre Carrier | https://github.com/zoid-archive/nixos-cursor-server mentions only partial work on wsl support. tried it anyway, no better | 19:12:08 |
tweber83 | Have you tried just using nix-ld to get it running?
https://nix-community.github.io/NixOS-WSL/how-to/vscode.html | 19:36:22 |
Pierre Carrier | yes | 19:37:47 |
Pierre Carrier | that's what I called "the ld trick" sorry | 19:38:11 |
Pierre Carrier |  Download image.png | 19:41:28 |
K900 | There's presumably a bash script to bootstrap the server | 19:41:32 |
Pierre Carrier | fails like so | 19:41:36 |
K900 | Which presumably explodes | 19:41:36 |
Pierre Carrier | indeed | 19:41:42 |
K900 | Normal vscode works, fwiw | 19:41:53 |
Pierre Carrier | which is a tad weird because when launching from the CLI a bunch of stuff gets extracted already | 19:42:17 |
Pierre Carrier | well that's quite unfortunate, sadly I need it for work | 19:59:39 |
Pierre Carrier | found the workaround here: https://forum.cursor.com/t/install-cursor-in-nix-os-on-wsl-2/81609/2 | 20:06:44 |

Pierre Carrier | I don't get links to open in a Windows browser when using aws or gcloud, unlike with arch. Any idea what I might be missing? | 14:43:08 |
K900 | I don't really know what those do but you probably want something like wslview that will proxy to the Windows side | 15:43:10 |
Pierre Carrier | sounds right. is that easy to set up? | 16:06:41 |
Pierre Carrier | I installed wslu but I'm guessing I now need something to point to it? | 16:09:58 |
Pierre Carrier | yeah just set BROWSER. feels not ideal to add another env variable but that'll do for now | 16:13:13 |

Pierre Carrier | wow, everyt | 00:04:37 |
Pierre Carrier | * wow, everything kinda just works hu | 00:04:48 |
Pierre Carrier | I know very little of what was required, but kudos | 00:05:04 |
Pierre Carrier | sorry, this is off topic, but if I want to ssh into my nixos-wsl from anywhere, is there much I have to do? I use networkingMode mirrored. unfortunately interacting with this particular install is rather time consuming and difficult so I can't tinker fast | 17:28:12 |
K900 | I'd maybe just run something like Tailscale inside the VM | 17:28:39 |
