xss-lock needs XDG_SESSION_ID to respond to loginctl lock-session(s)
(and possibly other session operations such as idle hint management).
This change adds XDG_SESSION_ID to the list of imported environment
variables when starting systemctl.
Inspired by home-manager, add importVariables configuration.
Set session to XDG_SESSION_ID when running xss-lock as a service.

Since systemd 243, docs were already steering users towards using
`journal`:
eedaf7f322
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Standard output type syslog is obsolete, automatically updating to journal.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
We have this bug https://github.com/elementary/gala/issues/636
when using notifications in gala. It's likely to not really be fixed
because all development is on the new notifications server.
Them removing cerbere and registering with the SessionManager
should make shutdown very fast. This was even done in plank [0]
which was the last factor outside cerbere causing this.

In 7f838b4dde, we dropped systemd-udev-settle.service from display-manager.service's wants.
Unfortunately, we are doing something wrong since without it both Xorg and Wayland fail to start:
Failed to open gpu '/dev/dri/card0': GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.AccessDenied: Operation not permitted
Until we sort this out, let's add systemd-udev-settle.service to GDM to unblock the channels.
This windowManager and desktopManager doesn't even have
an option to use it. git history suggests to me that there's no way anyone
finds this useful anymore.
* Removed the use of gnome-screensaver (https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-flashback/issues/18)
* Flashback's menu-related environment variables are now set in the gnome3.nix module instead of gnome-panel to resolve dependency conflict.
* nixos/gdm: Fix pulseaudio tmpfiles structure
Fix the following startup failure of the sound service in the gdm
session that was introduced by #75893:
```

Some display managers (e.g. SDDM) set the XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP variable accroding to this parameter.
If this variable is not defined, there will be some problems (e.g. MATE doesn't have icons on the desktop).
Fixes https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/71427
We switched to unified default session option services.xserver.displayManager.defaultSession
and included fallback path for the legacy options. Unfortunately when only
services.xserver.windowManager.default is set and not services.xserver.desktopManager.default,
it got incorrectly converted to the new option.
This should fix that.
Closes: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/76684
This module allows root autoLogin, so we would break that for users, but
they shouldn't be using it anyways. This gives the impression like auto
is some special display manager, when it's just lightdm and special pam
rules to allow root autoLogin. It was created for NixOS's testing
so I believe this is where it belongs.
Previously if ~/.background-image wasn't present, the background would
be set to black, which would override what the user could
set in e.g. services.xserver.windowManager.i3.extraSessionCommands
On numerous occasions I have seen users mistake this
module as libinput because it being called "multitouch"
and them being unaware that the actually module they want
is libinput. They then run into several decrepit bugs due
to the completely out-of-date nature of the underlying package.
The underlying package hasn't been changed to an up-to-date
fork in a period of 8 years. I don't consider this to be production quality.
However, I'm not opposed for the module being readded to NixOS
with new packaging, and a better name.
Fixes this error from `nixos-rebuild switch` introduced by #75893:
setting up tmpfiles
[/etc/tmpfiles.d/nixos.conf:7] Invalid age 'yes'.
warning: error(s) occurred while switching to the new configuration

###### Motivation for this change
With space between two options, multiple options just don't work
Looks like xkbOptions then used for generation of xorg.conf.d/00-keyboard.conf.
kbd's man says XkbOptions must be comma-separated without spaces.

xsession gets passed `dm` `wm`, so the desktop manager would be launched
before the window manager resulting in a regular desktop manager
session.
