GNU Guix on iPad2 (A1395)
Context: I have this iPad 2 that I got as a gift from a friend who was upgrading on the newer version to try to get me to like Apple. I hate it and it was in my storage unused for many years so now I am trying to get GNU Guix on it with GNOME. To achieve this I merged the required packages in guix (https://issues.guix.gnu.org/57902 and https://issues.guix.gnu.org/57871) and thanks to the jailbreaking community i can use Checkm8 exploit([https://github.com/axi0mX/ipwndfu](https://github.com/axi0mX/ipwndfu[12])) to get full write access to the device and unlock the bootloader to boot unsigned OS and linux-libre seems to have all required drivers to run on the device, see the current progress in https://git.dotya.ml/kreyren/kreyren/issues/30 The issue is that i can't get libusbmuxd (the daemon used to communicate with iDevices from Linux) to work on GNU Guix likely due to a configuration error in guix to perform the exploit and install guix, can someone help? https://github.com/libimobiledevice/ideviceinstaller/issues/147 Any relevant info on how to get iPad 2 or other iDevices to work with GNU Guix also appreciated. -- Jacob "Kreyren" Hrbek

A golden GNU for you
Hi, When reading about the reopening of Bhutan and its cross-country trail [1] I came across a lesser-known species of gnu goat that due to its yellow color could be an appropriate mascot for our beloved Guix. Sorry this message came late for the ten-year party. [2] Unlike the African wildebeest that served as the inspiration for the GNU Project [3] Bhutan's takins—their national animals—also come in a golden color. [4] The golden variety lives exclusively in a mountain range in China and is very cute. [5][6] There are also Sichuan takins [7] that are gold and black, and perhaps an even better fit! Kind regards Felix Lechner P.S. I looked for a better Guix mailing list for a lighthearted message but could not find one.
