I've wanted to try Guix, but I'm worried about driver support and general tools availability. I feel like it's one of those "when I have time for it" moments. Otherwise, currently running Ubuntu on a Dell XPS 13 Developer Edition until my warranty runs out. Most of what I do is working inside Emacs and a browser, so I could probably get away with a distrobution that doesn't demand a lot from hardware. The touch screen may be a little tricky to get working. My days of desktop gaming have long ago faded, but Linux seems well supported under Steam. Not sure if you can install that on Guix without first installing rpm or dpkg and associated libraries. I would assume if you could work out all the dependencies, it should be very reproducable in Guix. For those not as worried about free v.s. non-free in the RMS definition, there is NixOS (which Guix took its initial inspiration from) and Debian (which will always hold a special place in my heart). -- Chad Walstrom <chewie at wookimus.net> Blog: https://runswithd6s.gitlab.io/ Twitter: @runswithd6s Keybase: https://keybase.io/runswithd6s
