# nixos

This is my set of configuration files for Nixos.
I use these files across three separate computers:
* A desktop with a graphics card and multiple monitors, where I sometimes run Windows games using QEMU + VIFO passthrough.
* A Dell XPS13 laptop.
* A home media server that uses zfs for its filesystem and Plex for serving media.

As part of this setup, I have tried to roll as many configurable programs into my configuration.
You will find that the configs for i3, zsh, and neovim are all contained within this configuration, instead of `~/`.

## Installation
* `git clone` this project to `/etc/nixos/`.
* You may want to edit the config before rebuilding ( look in `profiles/common.nix`).
* You will likely want to set the default keymapping to something other than Dvorak.
* You will want to change the default user.
* Set the appropriate features you want in `configuration.nix` by uncommenting the `.nix` files you wish to use.
* Run `sudo nixos-rebuild switch`
* Enjoy

## Notable features
* VFIO GPU passthrough to a VM.
Should work out of the box.
* Zsh configured with Prezto.
Includes custom Powerline prompt.
* LaTeX packages configured.
This was harder than it sounds. Nixos's syntax for setting this up is not obvious.

## Stuff that isn't working right now
* Pulseaudio remote streaming.
* Neovim setup is not ideal: some packages are missing or don't work (YouCompleteMe)
* Rust isn't up to date in the standard nixos packages and currently is managed using nix-env instead of this configuration.
