This reverts commit 45c218f893.
Busybox's modprobe causes numerous "Unknown symbol" errors in the
kernel log, even though the modules do appear to load correctly.
NixOps has infrequent releases, so it's not the best place for keeping
the list of current AMIs. Putting them in Nixpkgs means that AMI
updates will be delivered as part of the NixOS channels.
I had the basic version of this laying around for some while but didn't
continue on it. Originally it was for testing support for the Neo layout
introduced back then (8cd6d53).
We only test the first three Neo layers, because the last three layers
are largely comprised of special characters and in addition to that the
support for the VT keymap seems to be limited compared to the Xorg
keymap.
Yesterday @NicolasPetton on IRC had troubles with the Colemak layout
(IRC logs: http://nixos.org/irc/logs/log.20160330, starting at 16:08)
and I found that test again, so I went for improving and adding to
<nixpkgs>.
While the original problem seemed to be related to GDM, we can still add
another subtest that checks whether GDM correctly applies the keyboard
layout. However I don't have a clue how to properly configure the
keyboard layout on GDM, at least not within the NixOS configuration.
The main goal of this test is not to test a complete set of all key
mappings but to check whether the keymap is loaded and working at all.
It also serves as an example for NixOS keyboard configurations.
The list of keyboard layouts is by no means complete, so everybody is
free to add their own to the test or improve the existing ones.

We now generate a qcow2 image to prevent hitting Hydra's output size
limit. Also updated /root/user-data -> /etc/ec2-metadata/user-data.

These two steps seem to fail intermittently with exit code 1. It isn't clear to me why, or what the issue is. Adding the `--verbose` option, hoping to capture some debugging information which might aid stabilization. Also: I was unable to replicate the failure locally.
This basic module allows you to specify the tmux configuration.
As great as tmux is, some of the defaults are pretty awful, so having a
way to specify the config really helps.
Systemd 229 sets kernel.core_pattern to "|/bin/false" by default,
unless systemd-coredump is enabled. Revert back to the default of
writing "core" in the current directory.
This reverts commit e8e8164f34. I
misread the original commit as adding the "which" package, but it only
adds it to base.nix. So then the original motivation (making it work
in subshells) doesn't hold. Note that we already have some convenience
aliases that don't work in subshells either (such as "ll").
Previously, the cisco resolver was used on the theory that it would
provide the best user experience regardless of location. The downsides
of cisco are 1) logging; 2) missing supoprt for DNS security extensions.
The new upstream resolver is located in Holland, supports DNS security,
and *claims* to not log activity. For users outside of Europe, this will
mean reduced performance, but I believe it's a worthy tradeoff.
