 emily | as in it aliases to display-manager.service upstream? | 20:48:08 |
 K900 | Yes | 20:48:12 |
| K900 | Which of course does not help this hack | 20:48:19 |
| emily | ok. not sure if there's a good way to declare that on the NixOS level I guess | 20:48:39 |
 ElvishJerricco | we could just make that hack use its own enable flag and then have the display manager modules in nixos set that flag | 20:49:02 |
| emily | I mean you could also just bodge this into the conditional there | 20:49:09 |
| ElvishJerricco | (I still contend that Conflicts=getty@tty1.service is the way to actually disable the getty on that tty, but I need to make stc less insane for that to work) | 20:50:11 |
| K900 | I am like 90% tempted to murder that entire setup with fire | 20:50:17 |
| emily | we literally just put it that way | 20:50:29 |
| emily | so you are going to have to find another way to accomplish the same end | 20:50:35 |
| emily | which is hard | 20:50:42 |
| ElvishJerricco | I think he means the whole "one module does a big if then else if then else on all the display-managers" thing | 20:51:00 |
| ElvishJerricco | which, yes, was the part I was unwilling to deal with last time | 20:51:08 |
| emily | won't really solve getty though | 20:51:18 |
| ElvishJerricco | true | 20:51:23 |

 Sandro 🐧 | no wayland? | 07:55:50 |
| K900 | It does support Wayland sessions | 07:57:09 |
| K900 | And the greeter is Wayland only | 07:57:40 |
| K900 | But it also does support X sessions | 07:57:40 |
| Sandro 🐧 | greeter is the UI shown? | 08:01:30 |
| K900 | Yes | 08:13:54 |
| K900 | OK so I made crimes | 14:38:17 |
| K900 | https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/480050 | 14:38:18 |
| K900 | @ElvishJerricco @emily | 14:38:21 |
| K900 | Kinda hate this but we need to kill the generic display-manager service at some point | 14:42:37 |
| K900 | Because it fucking sucks | 14:42:48 |

 Lun | Anyone familiar with ibus+plasma wayland? I was testing out https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/384689 on plasma wayland and still got an unhappy popup from ibus about how it was launched; not sure if that should be a blocker (or what the right thing it should do to make plasma happy is) | 15:12:39 |
| K900 | I think you just want to enable it in Plasma settings | 15:15:06 |
| K900 | And then let kwin manage it | 15:15:08 |
