Hi Guix,
In Trisquel and in Parabola, with the MATE desktop environment, I use
keepassXC and set a shortcut for auto-type to either Alt+Z or Super+Z and it
works.
In Guix, in the MATE desktop environment, neither works. However, I found
that Alt+T works.
I thought that perhaps some shortcut of

Thanks, it works now!
Hi Guix,
I installed Guix on a laptop where I previously used Trisquel and by
default, there was no sound.
On Trisquel, the problem was solved by running:
$ echo options snd-intel-dspcfg dsp_driver=1 | sudo tee -a
/etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf
$ sudo update-initramfs -u
I understand that this

All of these are part of what is called "miniature box" (I translate

Hello Guix,
After I install Gajim from Guix on Trisquel (I have also icecat and a few
other things installed from Guix), when I try opening a MATE session, I have
the background screen for about 25 seconds, then a brief black screen and I
am back to the session greeter.
If I log in via a console,
mas, thanks for hint!
Before this, I also added dconf because without it, I was not able to
change any setting in evolution.
It would be beneficial for Guix users if such information could be
captured somewhere.

Could it just be that the commit I was on had linux-libre 6.11 still but
guix pull was saying that linux-libre 6.11 was replaced with linux-libre
6.12 ?
I sometimes had failures that repeat if I retry immediately, but don't
repeat if I retry the next day.

After "guix pull" and "guix system reconfigure /etc/config.scm", I remember

Am I misunderstanding how to udpate my system?

Hi Guix,
When I install LibreOffice in Guix SD, the menus are in English, unlike my

Are other languages available for LibreOffice? How to select a language
other than English?
Thanks,
