Re: Guix learning exercices

Hey Marius! I am Guix and scheme newbie myself. I can't provide you with concrete learning materials, just some tips from my journey. I have learned a ton by working on a real project, namely, I try to port guix to a custom arm32 board using cross compilation. Cross compilation seems to be und

Re: Guix learning exercices

Oh thank you. I'll take a look on his channel. I've already installed Guix System by myself a year ago. X220 with libreboot, full disk encryption and everything. The thing is that I don't feel confident. For example what if I wanted to port a program to Guix I wouldn't now from where to start.

Guix learning exercices

Good evening, I was wondering if there are any exercices online or not, in order to learn Guix in a "practical" way. I've read all the Guix Reference Manual but with the lack of real exercises that challenge me to actually get hands on I fear that I will quickly forget the "theoretical" knowle

Gnome startup applications and Guix updates

Something that emerged from the recent "Gnome default web browser" thread on here: it looks to me like, in general, if - an application is among Gnome's startup applications; and - the guix package manager upgrades the package for that application then the Gnome autostart system continues to

Re: Guix learning exercices

Wow, Thank You so much. For me the most confusing parts are how to deal with the store. How builds are translated into derivations, how derivations are applied. I do not get if G-exp are scheme description of derivations or of builds or in between? Then the whole bootstrapping process from vo

Thank you all, I've recently found this possible solution that it's native to Guix: . So there we have the technical words we were looking for, since Guix System does not conform with FHS the binary

Re: How to diagnose Bluetooth trouble?

Oh - something I should probably have mentioned before is that I have two Bluetooth controllers on this machine - an internal one (hci0) which I don't expect to work on Guix because it needs proprietary firmware, and the USB dongle (hci1) that I'm trying to use. OpenPGP_signature.asc Descr

Re: How to: How to wrap executablea?

Hi! I think you need to rewrite the path to the dependencies of the executable using `patchelf`, so that the libs from the store are used. I only have done this in nix, but it should be the same for guix? Maybe someone with more experience can comment on this. Best regards Christoph
