As someone who comes from a background in configuration management, I would much rather have the entire system configuration defined in a state configuration file than do manual once-off edits (which is a part of what has attracted me to the project). Now I just need to figure out how to set /proc entries on boot. I guess I need to write a "service" for that, although I'm currently a complete a noob at Scheme. Actually, that's why I purchased this X60 100% free software-compatible laptop - so I could better experiment and learn these technologies. Ultimately there are a number of programs I use under Debian which I would like to create Guix packages for when I'm more comfortable with how it all works. Then it's just a matter of finding the time to read and experiment. :) Cheers, Adam --IiVenqGWf+H9Y6IX Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1 iQIcBAEBCgAGBQJXmgQLAAoJEOAKVkDV0qSHc8oP/AyWG5VUE66cOEOfW2dK48Gr 8mGQm5efXalqI9hRGN6oNkQQeb8KeN97lRnPa5Y/RJix4eedDuuSH9VBnigPgHKh O/X+5n6sd4RiUK4egVMVvbxDZWA89d4rtvbKSIO0p1Ynnj7WANBhx6yPWzOu4xDd bSrOXSOBcWaydjYbYv6ET2OSNAp3dvoiqsb/CfsMprxXkFUqzrUMzSOy7okh/1+j 7KuCcL+zjFFr6jWoCeiLNZ1/AK77M2y6dKE1glKstmXmL33olijf9GBeLDb9uwoV 34uUxhVGUWG8IsxAwYApR3qb7qa5p+0sv7049OW/sn+hn0YH2YzWd1QP3001kMuA w/QCW3ARv2CaOJwurIQ3bcWFh2baD3rv7jppScEGUbuU+hDdlc8L4YhBT2scY1RA C20rqxmJgN07WiV/iLD8RhNwpq+TiWFXB5NgyAZmCsopNQ9jqjVrNi9YRJUQBS26 mcWurFZ8R6C530kyns/mpUQ8DLBn2yXJ9bKhp4qIdPy7s7sjqaqg7AzEJs5ixpoc eP4j8t0zUVT8ZF7QNg67/39plkx8iuQg443crC9LKWXMYXprry6AouXeFyX85pkv +ZVw8KXq8y4S4XsNCgewRNF/kQWDWdDO4U/ubJQI7sKY15EycVPbIdKN6FCQLPX0 Ovdj0TOAS5FH8lBL+7Nd =wnF+ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --IiVenqGWf+H9Y6IX--
