First maybe that is because of text messages and you don't see a face but your messages sounds a bit passive agressive, but independent from that I am happy to get a answer, so thanks. > It doesn't imply that the example code can or should be added to a > system configuration. I thought that meaned to be example code to extend such code, but I english is not my first language and I might read not everything extremely carefully. > Nobody: (gnu services base) defines udev-shepherd-service but does not > export it.

Yes and no, I reported 3 weeks ago: http://issues.guix.gnu.org/issue/43390 So if there would be a direct way to access the hwdb capability of udev service I would be happy to not use this hack, but for now I priotise something running over something done the right way, I am good at elisp but not so good with guile or with understanding the guix architecture, I try to get a laptop in a usable shape so that I can maybe start being more productive use the emacs module and well over time learn. I don't want to become a guix / scheme expert just to get my keyboard working on my laptop which is my second installation after my netbook on which I will not code much for guix. I am totally open to better solutions but if I have to write 10 messages in 3 weeks I take what I can get, to get the system working. > You might be able to use (@@ (gnu services base) > udev-shepherd-service), which forces the module to give up its > secrets.

See <http://issues.guix.gnu.org/43498> and - > please! - beat me to a fix ;-) Maybe I will, just currently more into some elisp/emacs projects. Regards Stefan Huchler
