Hi guys, I am using a laptop with intel hd graphics 4000. I have the feeling my gnome may not be completely gpu accelerated. Can anyone of you give me some directions on how to enable hardware acceleration on how to check if its working? I have the following in my machine config:

hardware.opengl = {
    enable = true;
    extraPackages = with pkgs; [
      intel-media-driver
      vaapiIntel
      vaapiVdpau
      libvdpau-va-gl
    ];
  };

@gilganix:matrix.org-(GNU/ℝτ)-

Jan Tojnar: Due some recent tragic event I don't think I'll be able to edit/publish my attempt to document chrome-gnome-shell. :/

You are free to do whatever you want with the following file. I'll try to post it next week or the week after on my personal blog for people to read/learn from.

10:15:31
@gilganix:matrix.org-(GNU/ℝτ)-Download chrome-gnome-shell.org10:15:36
@gilganix:matrix.org-(GNU/ℝτ)-The only missing factor is the script part, will add that in the future.10:16:00
@gilganix:matrix.org-(GNU/ℝτ)-Alright, going afk until then. Have a nice day folks.10:16:29
@jtojnar:matrix.orgJan Tojnar piegames: heads up https://gitlab.gnome.org/World/ShellExtensions/extensions-rebooted/-/issues/24 21:24:53
@piegames:matrix.orgpiegamesYikes, thanks for the notice21:25:39
@piegames:matrix.orgpiegamesI'm not sure I understand what it means for us. Okay, the zip files we'll download won't include the compiled schemas anymore, if any. But doesn't it also mean that GNOME doesn't need them, so we don't need to care?21:33:57
@piegames:matrix.orgpiegamesI think this mostly boils down to what GNOME calls "install time"21:34:08
@jtojnar:matrix.orgJan Tojnar piegames: I think they mean downloading 21:34:43
@jtojnar:matrix.orgJan Tojnarwe will have to compile the schemas when building the package21:35:15
@piegames:matrix.orgpiegamesI hope this can be done automatically21:35:47
@jtojnar:matrix.orgJan Tojnarprobably something like find -name .gschemas.xml + dirname + glib-compile-schemas22:02:21
@jtojnar:matrix.orgJan Tojnar * probably something like find -name .gschemas.xml + dirname + glib-compile-schemas 22:02:33
@piegames:matrix.orgpiegamesI'm creating a VM configuration that has all extensions already installed, as a better testing environment. Would this fit into Nixpkgs?22:49:15
@piegames:matrix.orgpiegamesAlso, the package list contains attributes that don't evaluate (because they throw an exception). How can I filter them out without throwing myself?22:49:46
10 Jun 2021
@jtojnar:matrix.orgJan Tojnar piegames: why do they throw an exception? 06:16:19
@piegames:matrix.orgpiegames Jan Tojnar Because the packages got removed and that's apparently how to deal with it in nixpkgs or something? 09:11:52
@jtojnar:matrix.orgJan Tojnar piegames: that should not bother you if you disable aliases 10:32:43
@jtojnar:matrix.orgJan Tojnar and you can also use builtins.tryEval 10:32:54
@piegames:matrix.orgpiegames I tried pkgs = import ./nixpkgs { allowBroken = true; allowAliases = false; } in the REPL and still get exceptions :( 10:37:02
@piegames:matrix.orgpiegameshttps://gitlab.gnome.org/World/ShellExtensions/extensions-rebooted/-/issues/24#note_1152931 How does Nix handle this actually?16:31:09
11 Jun 2021
@jtojnar:matrix.orgJan Tojnar piegames: most packages compile the schemas as part of their build system 10:26:09
@jtojnar:matrix.orgJan Tojnarwhen it is not the case, we call glib-compile-schemas manually10:26:27
@jtojnar:matrix.orgJan Tojnar it is somewhat complicated by the fact that we move the schemas to avoid conflicts between gschemas.compiles files of different packages but the glib setup hook takes care of that transparently 10:28:48
@jtojnar:matrix.orgJan Tojnarso for extensions, I would just recommend doing as above, now10:29:38
@jtojnar:matrix.orgJan Tojnar probably something like find -name .gschemas.xml + dirname + glib-compile-schemas 10:29:48
