This repository contains my dotfiles and Guix System literate configurations. Part of them are also used for the public Guix build farm and mirrors I run.

Structure

config

files/deploy

LiveCDs

I provide two LiveCDs for the manual installation of Guix System. Pre-built images are available for x86_64-linux: https://files.boiledscript.com/livecd/

These LiveCDs use fish as the login shell. NetworkManager is available for network configuration. A set-keymap script is provided for keyboard setup of both LiveCDs.

  Usage: set-keymap LAYOUT [VARIANT] [-m MODEL] [-o OPTIONS]

  OPTIONS are comma-separated e.g. "ctrl:nocaps,grp:alt_shift_toggle"

Example usage below:

  $ set-keymap us dvorak -o ctrl:nocaps

For a full list of available layouts, variants, models and options, refer to the xkeyboard-config.7 manual page.

This repository includes several Guix System configuration examples, they are available in the LiveCDs as well, under the /etc/configuration directory. Most of the examples are based on the templates included in Guix source tree.

Two external channels, Nonguix and Rosenthal, are configured via their transformation interfaces (TODO documentation), so you can add and remove these channels from the configurations easily.

Examples created by me (with a rosenthal- prefix in file names) are replicated from the LiveCD(s) and they have hard dependency on the Rosenthal channel. Since Rosenthal is still unstable, they are considered experimental.

console

Username: live, password: rosenthal.

To facilitate remote installation, this LiveCD starts a SSH daemon. Remember to change the password when logged in if the machine is exposed to the Internet ;)

desktop

Username: live, no password.

This LiveCD provides a pre-configured Emacs text editor and a desktop environment built around the niri Wayland compositor. Configurations files for the environment are managed in the Rosenthal channel, exposed as the %rosenthal-skeletons variable and available under /etc/skel in LiveCD and the final system if configured.

Default keybindings:

Super + Shift + /

Open an overlay for available hotkeys.

Super + T

Open terminal emulator, foot is used.

Super + D

Open application launcher, rofi is used.
