I really like the way you've organized the repo. It's much more straightforward compared to many other NixOS configs I've seen. I think I'm gonna try your config out :)
hi Tyler, very well explained for a beginner like me. thanks a lot. Would appreciate some more videos, (or if possible) a series on setting up NixOS, WM, etc. for a beginner. thanks again.
very cool! preparing to move from arch to nixos, using hyprdots and this looks like a nice first step to have a sweet working hyrpland setup, hoping the script works
Really nice organized. I had some difficulties making my config work with hyprland, so I wanted to test yours, and it works pretty well. One small issue I have difficulties addressing. My wlan password or when installed the MFA for one password are not persisted. I guess, it is a lack of wallet library like kwallet. I wanted to make sure I did not miss anything before bringing this to my config.
Hey Zaney i been intrested in nix and huprland for a bit now and plenty of .files and configs and youtube vids but skimming in to your git repos and as some one thats a slow lat learning thing your make it easy to understand and i am iger to leave my vm behide and go bear metal next week as it is known so wish me look if yours am starting with your hahaha and if you have a bit of time maybe you could do a small step by step vid on how to do it thank you man your top man
I like the explanation for beginners I have been linux for a while now, but I have never made to compositors such as Hyprland, i3, ... I would like to move away from gnome, but for now it feels a bit daunting However I am a NVIDIA customer ( 3080 for gaming ) and I am afraid of moving to Wayland because it caused me issues in VSCODE ( X11 fixed black bars, ... )
I find that to be a feature, but obviously that’s my personal opinion. I believe you can change it, however, I don’t know how. If you want to investigate it together on Discord later I’ll be on in about 5 hours after work 👍
Salut Zaney. I tried nixos with your install script. Gooooood work, nice hyprland. But konsole freez and dead. I have Nvidia GPU P5000 and P2000 in machine. Installed NixOS Plasma. What do you think, plasma is problem? Can i try install into clean nix?
Well, Wayland doesn't allow screen tearing. So as time goes on and Nvidia gets better support for Wayland, I would just start using it on desktop environments or use wayland compositors. If you're using Xorg don't forget to go into Nvidia settings and enable force full composition.
Yes, my laptop configuration is way behind the desktop. I haven't been using so over the next week or so it'll get updated. Very sorry!@@systembreaker4651
I use MATE for many many years. I have tried i3 and awesomewm a couple of times in the past, but I found that I used too many apps that glitch out or crash when the window manager forces their size and i need specific stacking behavior in certain apps to the point that I would end up putting tons of things in stacking mode anyway. so i have always thought that pure stacking window managers are best suited to my needs. but i am open to trying a tiling window manager or even tiling compositor if it can perform all the tasks i need or even do them better. What do you think the best tiling GUI or settings would be to convince someone who relies heavily on MATE to switch?
You can change the layout to be whatever you need and if apps crash just set rules for them to be in the mode you need them to be in like floating or whatever. I can't tell you the best settings for you, but I can definitely talk to you more about stuff over in discord and answer any questions you might have.
Sorry to bother you. But I was using your repo and I don't have a GPU which supports CUDA so don't want to build it but I couldn't find the package listed anywhere
Hey Tyler! You are da man! Explaining Nixos. Really like the way you have put together your config. I gave it a try and I follow your directions. But, I ran into a problem. I am getting the following error: "cached failure of attribute 'nixosConfigurations.hyprnix.config.system.build.toplevel' Can You please help me? Thank You in advance!
This is because your using my hostname. If the hostname in the flake.nix is different than the default typically nixos, then you have to change the default configuration.nix in /etc/nixos to match then rebuild and reboot. Then you can rebuild the flake. The flake will fail as it needs the hostname to match the systems active hostname. Hope that helps and you can always reach out over on Discord as well! Thank you for the kind words and taking the time to comment!
@@ZaneyOG Thank You for your quick response. I made the changed. Since I have an Intel system I have ran into some other errors. error: attribute 'intel-bus-id' missing is one of them. What do you think I am missing? Thank You in advance!
Hey Tyler. I got it going. My bad I missed spelled Intel in the flake file. Your Config looks very good. Awesome job! Quick ? What App are you using to log out from the system?Thank you in advance!
Yes, thanks I will fix that. I am in the process of doing some much needed updates to documentation and the entire project tonight. But, for persistence since it was causing so many issues for people. I am removing it completely from options.nix and only sourcing it in my own hardware.nix. So there will be a guide on enabling it in the wiki.

Thanks for putting the video together! Thanks for the repo. I will have to book mark the site and test out the wonderful work you have put together.

Finally a good repo and video just what I need

Super solid config repo! Well organized.
Stunning setup! Likely will use most of that. So, Sir Thank you!
Thank you! It’s continually getting better I’m really excited to show off all the new stuff

KDE Plasma is actually very good. Not as lithe as Hyprland, but personally I find it a good balance between functionality and aesthetic jazz
A series on getting started and using Nixos for beginners maybe 🙄
Amazing config! Thanks for sharing! Have you managed to eliminate the image loading delay in rofi? Thanks again!
I haven't had a problem with it loading slow. But I will look into it!
Hyprland is awesome but I don't like the fact that windows spawn relative to where my mouse is. there maybe a way to fix that i don't know.
I find that to be a feature, but obviously that’s my personal opinion. I believe you can change it, however, I don’t know how. If you want to investigate it together on Discord later I’ll be on in about 5 hours after work 👍
You can set that in the tiling layout in the .config with the "drop_at_cursor" variable. RTFM (just kidding)
@@ZaneyOG Good vibes

Hey bro we need a full tutorial how to fix screen tearing in most Linux distro with Nvidia gpu
Well, Wayland doesn't allow screen tearing. So as time goes on and Nvidia gets better support for Wayland, I would just start using it on desktop environments or use wayland compositors. If you're using Xorg don't forget to go into Nvidia settings and enable force full composition.

There should not be anything CUDA being installed. To my knowledge
I wish I had this two years ago

Whoa, first for the first time
Fyi persistence.nix still hardcodes your username
