The module is doing much more than just enabling the ipu6 kernel
module, so extending the enable options scope to support for these
camera modules seems a better fit.
The single option tries to do too much work, which just ends up confusing people.
So:
- don't force the console font, the kernel can figure this out as of #210205
- don't force the systemd-boot mode, it's an awkward mode that's not supported
on most things and will break flicker-free boot
- add a separate option for the xorg cursor scaling trick and move it under the xorg namespace
- add a general `fonts.optimizeForVeryHighDPI` option that explicitly says what it does
- alias the old option to that
- don't set any of those automatically in nixos-generate-config
It has no effect with `subpixel.lcdfilter = "none"`.
If the user overrides the module's default, the correct subpixel order
depends on their actual monitor, and cannot be known by this module.
conversions were done using https://github.com/pennae/nix-doc-munge
using (probably) rev f34e145 running
nix-doc-munge nixos/**/*.nix
nix-doc-munge --import nixos/**/*.nix
the tool ensures that only changes that could affect the generated
manual *but don't* are committed, other changes require manual review
and are discarded.
we can't embed syntactic annotations of this kind in markdown code
blocks without yet another extension. replaceable is rare enough to make
this not much worth it, so we'll go with «thing» instead. the module
system already uses this format for its placeholder names in attrsOf
paths.
the conversion procedure is simple:
- find all things that look like options, ie calls to either `mkOption`
or `lib.mkOption` that take an attrset. remember the attrset as the
option
- for all options, find a `description` attribute who's value is not a
call to `mdDoc` or `lib.mdDoc`
- textually convert the entire value of the attribute to MD with a few
simple regexes (the set from mdize-module.sh)
- if the change produced a change in the manual output, discard
- if the change kept the manual unchanged, add some text to the
description to make sure we've actually found an option. if the
manual changes this time, keep the converted description
this procedure converts 80% of nixos options to markdown. around 2000
options remain to be inspected, but most of those fail the "does not
change the manual output check": currently the MD conversion process
does not faithfully convert docbook tags like <code> and <package>, so
any option using such tags will not be converted at all.
We can't assume that DRI card minor is the same as NVidia GPU device minor,
because some DRI minors could be taken by GPUs of other vendors.
Fixes#87788, #98942.
The current type for the busId options are too relaxed, a stricter
constraint should be imposed to guard against typos which result
in Xorg unable to start.
This commit restricts the type to adhere to the B/D/F notation[1] for
addressing devices as expected by the module option.

The new option (disabled by default) pulls in the experimental sensor
calibration files for the Facetime HD camera. These will also be pulled
in by hardware.enableAllFirmware.
For displays with high pixel density, there is no need to do subpixel
anti-aliasing (which is the default) – grayscale antialiasing is enough.
In terms of fontconfig, we keep antialiasing on, but tell it not to play
any RGB tricks.
GDM enables Wayland on supported platforms automatically (see ${gnome.gdm}/lib/udev/rules.d/61-gdm.rules), so we removed the `gdm.nvidiaWayland` option.
You will still need `hardware.nvidia.modesetting.enable = true;` with `nvidia` driver, though.
This patch fixes a bug caused by an incorrect reference to
'nvidiaSettings' rather than 'cfg.nvidiaSettings'. The bug caused
the system to not build when using the nvidia drivers.
Tested on my local machine.
- This is fetched from a different URL, so allow passing that explicitly.
- There also isn't an nvidia-persistenced or nvidia-settings release for
this version, so use 450.57 instead. Also implement passing
persistenced and settings version explicitly.

This fixes a harmless error from systemd-udevd that looks like:
Dec 23 15:35:23 dellbook systemd-udevd[696]:
/nix/store/iixya3ni5whybpq9zz1h7f4pyw7nhd19-udev-rules/99-local.rules:25
Invalid value "..." for RUN (char 101: invalid substitution type),
ignoring, but please fix it.
Using $$ fixes it using the escaping documented at https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/udev.html.
The SLIM project is abandoned and their last release was in 2013.
Because of this it poses a security risk to systems, no one is working
on it or picked up maintenance. It also lacks compatibility with systemd
and logind sessions. For users, there liikely isn't anything like slim
that's as lightweight in terms of dependencies.
Invoke xrandr to actually connect the device.
Additionally, we let systemd create the logs directory and use our module loader
instead of handling it manually.
