Getting plasma5 running…

Help
1

I’m trying to get up and running with plasma5 on a new physical machine. A little noob alert here, but this seems really hard to search for.

I’ve installed via a thumbdrive and everything has gone smooth except not getting any gui up.

I have an Intel based system with an AMD 5700XT. This is my xserver section:

  services.xserver = {
    enable = true;
    desktopManager.plasma5.enable = true;
    desktopManager.xterm.enable = false;
    displayManager.sddm.enable = true;
    videoDrivers = [ "amdgpu" ];
  };

I can see that the xserver actually is running:

systemctl status display-manager.service
● display-manager.service - X11 Server
   Loaded: loaded (/nix/store/xigc3yhkdwmn45n6fmmn907884rkwps2-unit-display-manager.service/display-manager.service; linked; vendor preset: enabled)

Mar 16 17:14:45 marfa sddm[1014]: Logind interface found

However,

systemctl status sddm
Unit sddm.service could not be found.

I guess I’m missing aspects like adding stuff to systemPackages possibly?

I’ve tried:

environment.systemPackages = with pkgs; [
    plasma-desktop
    sddm
];

which builds fine, but I guess there is more to it? I don’t even know here to look for logs of failure?

You shouldn’t need anything additional.

This is what I have in mine:

  services.xserver.enable = true;
  services.xserver.layout = "us";
  services.xserver.desktopManager.plasma5.enable = true;
  services.xserver.displayManager.sddm.enable = true;

I believe it is systemctl status display-manager.service. If you look at it, you can see what it is calling. The script it executes should in turn call sddm

What is the actual behavior you are are seeing?

3

Just no graphical ui at all…?

Maybe this is a wtf rtfm moment, but I thought I’d get a graphical login straight away - don’t know how to start kde manually?

Also, during the install, I couldn’t get any x working either.

If you downloaded the graphical ISO image, you can run systemctl start display-manager to start the desktop environment.

I tried that and nothing happened. No visible errors, just nothing.

You should, it should just work.

Definitely something with the GPU going on. I mean Radeon 5700 XT is pretty new. I found this:

And in particular:

which made me add these:

  # For Radeon 5700 XT
  boot.kernelPackages = pkgs.linuxPackages_latest;
  nixpkgs.config.allowUnfree = true;
  hardware.enableRedistributableFirmware = true;

So now I’m Linux 5.4.23 instead of 4 something and now my physical session actually freezes here, probably when trying to start x11:

Can still ssh to it just fine…

@hedefalk feel free to harvest my config https://github.com/turboMaCk/Dotfiles/blob/051b7383bbe679b193ed8904a7f945c745e4cffb/nixos/machines/desktop.nix I have RX5700XT too and have no issues with this config at the moment.

Most notably I think you might want to add:

services.xserver.videoDrivers = [ "amdgpu" ];
hardware.enableRedistributableFirmware = true;
hardware.opengl = {
      enable = true;
      driSupport = true;
    };
boot.kernelPackages = pkgs.linuxPackages_5_4;

# for plasma
services.xserver.desktopManager.plasma5.enable = true;
services.xserver.displayManager.sddm.enable = true;

@hedefalk citing from your log

Current Operating System: Linux marfa 4.19.107

4.19 kernel doesn’t support your GPU. Make sure you use at least 5.4.

EDIT: can you please post the output of nix-channel --list in here?

yeah, its weird, I thought I did… Yeah, I did…

I’ve just checked my log. ~X11 reports Linux 4.19.92 even for me~. as @vcunat pointed out Current Operating System reports expected (5.4.22) version for me.

It seems to me that the important line for your issue is [ 20495.773] (II) AMDGPU(0): [KMS] Kernel modesetting enabled. but I’m not and expert myself to be honest.

It does not. Don’t watch the “Build OS” but “Current OS”.

EDIT: it would be best to patch-out recording “Build OS”, but that’s not really relevant to this thread.

can you please post the output of nix-channel --list in here?

nixos https://nixos.org/channels/nixos-unstable

Sorry I didn’t make it clear before. Don’t forget to run this with sudo because nix is multi user and root might be using different channel than your user. It might be the case that while your user has channel set to nixos-unstable root (you use to rebuild your system) is on some old channel where pkgs.linuxPackages_latest is an older unsupported kernel.

  1. make sure root uses nixos-unstable channel (sudo nix-channel --list)
  2. nixos-rebuild switch --upgrade
  3. reboot just to be sure

I didn’t upgrade before and probably got too old kernel still. Before:

Linux marfa 5.4.23 #1-NixOS SMP Fri Feb 28 16:22:29 UTC 2020 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Now:
Linux marfa 5.5.9 #1-NixOS SMP Thu Mar 12 06:18:49 UTC 2020 x86_64 GNU/Linux

THANKS!
