 mewp | okay, are you configuring your system using flakes? | 12:16:48 |
 Thatoo | yes | 12:18:02 |
| mewp | all right, then you have a nixosConfiguration with all the settings | 12:18:34 |
| Thatoo | a configuration.nix file, yes | 12:18:51 |
| mewp | the settings don't have anything to do with flakes, just so you know | 12:18:54 |
| mewp | anyway | 12:18:57 |
| mewp | https://search.nixos.org/options?channel=23.11&show=services.xserver.xkb.extraLayouts&from=0&size=50&sort=relevance&type=packages&query=xkb | 12:18:59 |
| mewp | this is probably the option you want to set | 12:19:12 |
| mewp | just add the file to your flake repo, and the path to the file in the relevant place | 12:19:38 |
| Thatoo | thank you | 12:37:32 |
| Thatoo | services.xserver = {
layout = "fr";
xkbVariant = "";
xkb.extraLayouts = {
mine = {
description = "ergol xkb layout.";
languages = [ "fr-ergol" ];
symbolsFile = /path/to/file/ergol.xkb_custom;
};
};
};
should work?
Do I need to reboot or logout/login?
| 12:42:04 |
| mewp | layout should probably be mine | 12:43:49 |
| mewp | and the path relative (because the flake cannot access anything outside it) | 12:44:24 |
| mewp | do a nixos-rebuild switch and then restart the x server | 12:45:03 |
| mewp | that being said—I don't know anything about these options, I'm just speculating | 12:45:25 |
| Thatoo | thanks | 12:49:10 |

| Thatoo | mewpjust to let you know that I'm typing with this ergol.xkb_custom keaybord layout. It has work exactly as you said. After a logout/login, I could choose and use it.
Thank you.

 woobilicious | how would I do the equivent of nix build 'nixpkg/<commit>#pkg but on a local clone? ./<commit>#pkg obviously doens't work. | 09:03:11 |
| woobilicious | even better if I could do HEAD~1 | 09:05:48 |
