| emily | I wonder if our packaging is broken or something. but still it definitely works on GNOME/Plasma right? | 07:22:41 |
| emily | we would surely hear about "cannot connect to wifi" | 07:22:45 |
 hexa | oh | 07:22:52 |
| hexa | do they run a polkit agent maybe? | 07:22:57 |
| hexa | because I sure as hell do not | 07:23:11 |
| hexa | for no good reason | 07:23:13 |
| emily | that presumably does not help :) | 07:23:56 |
| hexa | fair | 07:24:17 |
| emily | I think that kind of thing belongs in setup instructions for individual WM things | 07:24:27 |
| emily | (and it's ~expected that you have to glue together stuff for those) | 07:24:35 |
| emily | we should ensure the minimal ISO ships something that makes it work though | 07:25:05 |
| emily | I assume nmcli can use the default console thingy | 07:25:13 |
| emily | but not sure about nmtui | 07:25:16 |
| hexa | well, not the minimal iso, but like the initial setup | 07:25:27 |
| hexa | minimal iso would be nice-to-have | 07:25:40 |
| emily | because it doesn't support WiFi now anyway? | 07:27:07 |
| hexa | no, because the user will elevate anyhow | 07:27:29 |
| emily | fair | 07:27:36 |
| emily | we could put an agent in the graphical module but like… which one to pick | 07:27:58 |
| emily | some sway users are going to want a GTK thing, some Qt, some are going to be offended at the idea of any polkit thing ever | 07:28:14 |
| hexa | it is very likely that kde and gnome sessions already ship theirs | 07:28:30 |
| emily | seems like just a general "assembling a modern Linux desktop environment from the twenty components you need" problem, users of minimal WMs are hopefully(?) more up to the task than others | 07:28:46 |
| hexa | oh, you mean into the sway module | 07:28:52 |
| emily | I meant the shared graphical module | 07:28:59 |
| hexa | ok, you know what | 07:29:05 |
| emily | nixos/modules/profiles/graphical.nix | 07:29:08 |
| hexa | let me find out if we document that already | 07:29:11 |
| emily | uh wrong one | 07:29:14 |
| emily | nixos/modules/services/misc/graphical-desktop.nix | 07:29:17 |
