The current nixos module for VirtualBox unconditionally configures a vboxnet0
network interface at boot. This may be undesired, especially when the user wants
to manage network interfaces in a centralized manner.
- Create container nixos profile
- Create lxc-container nixos config using container nixos profile
- Docker nixos image, use nixos profile for its base config
The default configuration installed the Bitstream Vera fonts, but DejaVu
is a superior replacement, and the default Fontconfig settings need it
now for the generic faces monospace, sans-serif, and serif.
Details:
* The option `fonts.fontconfig.ultimate.enable` can be used to disable
the fontconfig-ultimate configuration.
* The user-configurable options provided by fontconfig-ultimate are
exposed in the NixOS module: `allowBitmaps` (default: true),
`allowType1` (default: false), `useEmbeddedBitmaps` (default: false),
`forceAutohint` (default: false), `renderMonoTTFAsBitmap` (default:
false).
* Upstream provides three substitution modes for substituting TrueType
fonts for Type 1 fonts (which do not render well). The default,
"free", substitutes free fonts for Type 1 fonts. The option "ms"
substitutions Microsoft fonts for Type 1 fonts. The option "combi"
uses a combination of Microsoft and free fonts. Substitutions can also
be disabled.
* All 21 of the Infinality rendering modes supported by fontconfig-ultimate
or by the original Infinality distribution can be selected through
`fonts.fontconfig.ultimate.rendering`. The default is the medium style
provided by fontconfig-ultimate. Any of the modes may be customized,
or Infinality rendering can be disabled entirely.
Details:
* The option `fonts.enableFontConfig` has (finally) been renamed
`fonts.fontconfig.enable`.
* Configurations are loaded in this order: first the Fontconfig-upstream
configuration is loaded, then the NixOS-specific font directories are
set, the system-wide default configuration is loaded, and finally the
user configuration is loaded (if enabled).
* The NixOS options `fonts.fontconfig.defaultFonts.monospace`,
`fonts.fontconfig.defaultFonts.sansSerif` and
`fonts.fontconfig.defaultFonts.serif` are added to allow setting the
default system-wide font used for these generic faces. The defaults
are the appropriate faces from the DejaVu collection because of their
comprehensive Unicode coverage, clean rendering, and excellent
legibility.
* The NixOS option `fonts.fontconfig.antialias` can be used to disable
antialiasing (it is enabled by default).
* The options `fonts.fontconfig.subpixel.rgba` and
`fonts.fontconfig.subpixel.lcdfilter` control the system-wide default
settings for subpixel order and LCD filtering algorithm,
respectively.
* `fonts.fontconfig.hinting.enable` can be used to disable TrueType font
hinting (it is enabled by default).
`fonts.fontconfig.hinting.autohint` controls the FreeType autohinter.
`fonts.fontconfig.hinting.style` controls the hint style; it is "full"
by default.
* User configurations can be disabled system-wide by setting
`fonts.fontconfig.includeUserConf = false`. They are enabled by
default so users can set Fontconfig options in the desktop environment
of their choice.
This overhauls the Tor module in a few ways:
- Uses systemd service files, including hardening/config checks
- Removed old privoxy support; users should use the Tor Browser
instead.
- Remove 'fast' circuit/SOCKS port; most users don't care (and it adds
added complexity and confusion)
- Added support for bandwidth accounting
- Removed old relay listenAddress option; taken over by portSpec
- Formatting, description, code cleanups.

Rather than trying to override the 'torsocks' executable in $PATH, the
new module instead properly configures `/etc/tor/torsocks.conf` and puts
the normal `torsocks` executable in $PATH so it can work out of the box.
As a bonus, I think this module actually works now, because the torsocks
configuration has changed a lot from when this was written, it seems...

'torify' now ships with the tor bundle itself; and using torsocks is
recommended over tsocks (torify will use torsocks automatically.)

From http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/PredictableNetworkInterfaceNames/
You disable the assignment of fixed names, so that the unpredictable
kernel names are used again. For this, simply mask udev's rule file for
the default policy: ln -s /dev/null
/etc/udev/rules.d/80-net-setup-link.rules (since v209: this file was
called 80-net-name-slot.rules in release v197 through v208)
This patch should be reverted if either:
- systemd fixes the multi-swapon issue.
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=86930
- If we disable the autogeneration of swap and vfat units within
systemd.
