bug#26158: Gnome starts unreliably |

So I’ve gotten responses for this on the help-guix mailing list and in the
guix-bugs list. I’ll try to just respond to the bug mailing list so the
conversation is in one place.
I did login as root, run guix system vm /etc/gnome-xfce.scm; A vm popped up.
I could not login as joshua, but I could also not login as root either. When
I tried to login as joshua, after I typed in my password, it prompted me for a
user name. So I can’t login as joshua in the vm. Outside the vm, when I try
logging in as joshua I see Logging in, I see lots of text, and then I’m back at
the login screen. In the vm, I tried logging in a root, and it tries to log
me in, but inevitably I end up at the login screen again. Outside the vm,
when I try logging in as root, it works fine.
I tried looking for the x-session errors file and couldn’t find anything.
cat /home/joshua/.xsession-errors;
No file.
cat /root/.xsession-errors;
No file.
cat / .xsession-errors;
no file.
Also it looks like Parabola X errors are listed in ~/.local/share/xorg/,
because X is rootless in Parabola. Does X start as root in guixSD?
If so,
pwd; -> /var/log
grep -e Log -e tty Xorg.0.log -> March 22 16:22:29 (today about an hour
ago)
grep EE Xorg.0.log
43.680 (EE) NOUVEAU (0): [COPY] failed to allocate class.
grep WW Xorg.0.log
(WW) Open ACPI failed (/var/run/aspid.socket) (No such file or directory)
(WW) Falling back to old probe method for mode setting
(WW) Falling back to old probe method for fbdev
(WW) Falling back to old probe method vesa
I feel like if someone tries to make a vm of my scheme file, they’re going to
be able to log in just fine….Wait I didn’t set my normal user password in the
vm…. So I probably could login to the vm, because my normal user password was
not set right? BUT I can’t get a tty in a vm? I tried, and I was in outside
the vm in a normal tty.
IDK.

P.S. Most of the time when I login to gnome my mouse cannot move left to
right. It’s probably a different issue, but I felt I should probably mention
it.
