Subject: bug#57068: Resizing mcron job in vm-image.tmpl interferes with settings
Date: Tue, 09 Aug 2022 11:30:33 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87r11p932e.fsf@inria.fr> (raw)
Hello!
Commit 945ad48cd8029fa77a643e00c7fd350e98cacca0 added an mcron job to
‘vm-image.tmpl’ that resets screen size every second. I’m don’t fully
understand the problem this was addressing, but it has two drawbacks:
1. Kicking in every second is inefficient.
2. Resetting the screen size prevents users from changing it. For
example, if I run:
$(guix system vm gnu/system/examples/vm-image.tmpl) -m 1024
then go to the Xfce menu, Settings -> Display, and change the screen
size, I have it immediately reset back to the default value.
Should we remove this workaround, possibly finding another one?
Thanks,
Ludo’.
