Was trying to install guix on top of fedora silverblue. It’s kinda working, but not exactly stable…

    Some updates after sleeping on it and trying some morning debugging:

    • It’s actually either service being enabled that prevents login
    • It’s a gnome-shell issue. Logging into a tty is fine, and shows that it’s gnome-shell crashing when trying to log-in normally

    Maybe it’s time to go back to debian…

      I had this with a sunshine service being added as a user service in bazzite. I created a clean new user and it booted, confirming it was user based. Took a bunch of binary searching to work out what the issue was.

      I’ve since done my own autostart setup for sunshine and it’s been fine ever since.

      Crappy UX!

        Yeah, thinking I might have to do something similar to start the services after login. Unfortunately they need to run as root, so it’ll be tricky to avoid having a second password prompt every time I login
