So I'm trying to define a new menu-entry for my desktop system using
GuixSD's system config. I've ran into an interesting problem that I'm
not sure how to resolve. Forgive any formatting issues here, I'm having
to hand-copy this over from a VM I'm using to test everything. I know
it's this piece of

I booted into the LiveUSB I was using for testing and xinit/startx was

Hello,
I have tried several times to get X.org (/bin/X, specifically)
setuid for obvious reasons. However, I can't find any examples of usage
and attempting to follow the infopages has led to a bunch of different

What is the purpose of /gnu/store/.links and is it important? I checked
the docs on the website and couldn't find any reference to this
directory anywhere, so I'm asking here.

Doesn't that mean the system can't be restored from
Hello,
My normal backup software (rsnapshot) doesn't seem to play
terribly well with GuixSD because the software uses hardlinks for it's
deduplication, so I'm looking for alternatives (or someone to tell me
what needs to happen to get rsnapshot to backup /gnu/store without
issue).
I'd prefer
Hello,
I was wondering whether, if I put /gnu (or /gnu/store) on a seperate
partition, Guix would (re)mount the partition ro/rw as needed. I know the store
is supposed to be read-only (unless guix-daemon is making a change), but I
wanted to know if it handed this specific case or if it was on

Hello,
I have a few questions about GuixSD that I need to have answered before I
can think about trying to install it. For some background on myself, I'm a
long-time Gentoo user, and I've used Funtoo and Arch some in the past.
1) Is there any way to prevent a package from being installed at
