Since systemd 243, docs were already steering users towards using
`journal`:

systemd 246 will go one step further, it shows warnings for these units
during bootup, and will [automatically convert these occurences to
`journal`](f3dc6af20f):
> [ 6.955976] systemd[1]: /nix/store/hwyfgbwg804vmr92fxc1vkmqfq2k9s17-unit-display-manager.service/display-manager.service:27: Standard output type syslog is obsolete, automatically updating to journal. Please update│······················
your unit file, and consider removing the setting altogether.
So there's no point of keeping `syslog` here, and it's probably a better
idea to just not set it, due to:
> This setting defaults to the value set with DefaultStandardOutput= in
> systemd-system.conf(5), which defaults to journal.
Prior to this change, the `config` option (which allows you define the
haskell configuration for xmonad in your configuration.nix instead of
needing something in the home directory) prevents desktop manager
resources from starting. This can be demonstrated by configuring the
following:
```
services.xserver = {
displayManager.defaultSession = "xfce+xmonad";
displayManager.lightdm.enable = true;
desktopManager.xterm.enable = false;
desktopManager.xfce.enable = true;
desktopManager.xfce.enableXfwm = false;
desktopManager.xfce.noDesktop = true;
windowManager.xmonad = {
enable = true;
enableContribAndExtras = true;
extraPackages = haskellPackages: [
haskellPackages.xmonad-contrib
haskellPackages.xmonad-extras
haskellPackages.xmonad
];
config = ''
import XMonad
import XMonad.Config.Xfce
main = xmonad xfceConfig
{ terminal = "terminator"
, modMask = mod4Mask }
'';
};
};
```
and after user log in, search for xfce processes `ps aux | grep xfce`.
You will not find xfce processes running until after the xmonad process is killed.
The bug prevents utilities included with the desktopManager,
(e.g. powerManagement, session logout, etc.)
from working as expected.
- E already comes with a default icon theme
- There are already the gtk default Adwaita themes for gtk2, gtk3 and icons
- Remove gnome-icon-theme (from old gtk2)
- Remove tango-icon-theme
- Remove xauth (used by kdesu), as kdesu is not a componnent of E. If
really needed it should be added in the system configuration.
This ensures a correct DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS environment variable
is set and imported into the systemd user environment.
Previously this would refer to a non-existing path preventing commands
interacting with the systemd manager from working.
Closes#87502
- Use floating points instead of strings, which Nix now supports
- Make the type of picom.settings option recursive
- Add a meaningful description of both the option and its type
