mobile-nixos VS nixos-hardware

For now, only information about Ubuntu Touch support is available on our website. We plan to extend that to PostmarketOS and NixOS. But which devices does Ubuntu Touch support? For example those:

Github has more recent activity: https://github.com/NixOS/mobile-nixos

NixOS/mobile-nixos

Any nixos users here? Anyone have any luck running mobile nixos?

samueldr has been doing a lot of work in that direction. See https://mobile.nixos.org/

With the code from https://github.com/NixOS/mobile-nixos/pull/445, build the demo example with nix-build --argstr device pine64-pinephonepro -A outputs.temp-tow-boot-install-script examples/demo/; of course instead of example/demo you can have your own configuration, but I started with demo

https://github.com/NixOS/mobile-nixos/pull/361

Though you might want to ask around for your particular use case. While basic support (it boots) is right around the corner, it's probably not yet at a point where it'll be nice to use.

As for what I did with those zip files? I made the equivalent for another Linux on Android devices distro. The implementation probably won't suit your tastes, but it's something else to look at to figure out what can be done.

Always useful to look at the seemingly endless stream of Linux information, the Arch wiki:

Also NixOS has a nixos-hardware repository with configurations for some laptops:

https://github.com/NixOS/nixos-hardware/tree/master/asus/zep...

Reasonably legible if you ever programmed anything

{ imports = [ # Include the results of the hardware scan. ./hardware-configuration.nix # Additional hardware specific configuration # https://github.com/NixOS/nixos-hardware ];

You could try this repo for hardware support on various laptops if yours is on it: https://github.com/NixOS/nixos-hardware

https://github.com/NixOS/nixos-hardware

Btw, for starters, I think you can learn a lot by checking other's configurations and from things like https://github.com/NixOS/nixos-hardware. There are a lot of useful/essential configurations that are not enabled by default.

in that case do note that this module assumes you use nixos-hardware, otherwise you can remove lines 161-165. I can also send you my VM's libvirtd .xml file when you get around to creating it.

My computer is a Lenovo Legion 5 Pro with a dual GPU setup (AMD iGPU + Nvidia DGPU) where I'm using a "hybrid mode" configuration provided by nixos-hardware, using PRIME offload.

Not too long ago nixos-hardware changed the default Xorg driver for AMD to modesetting from amdgpu.
