Proper install Vivaldi on NixOS

jkn · March 10, 2024, 12:50pm

Hello, How do i install Vivaldi Browser on nixos? i have tried with unstable branch and it is working, but the problem is it’s laggy too much also giving errors when i run it from a terminal.

(unstable.vivaldi.override {
    proprietaryCodecs = true;
    enableWidevine = true;
  })

Here is the output of the terminal, Well i am using the stable branch and for some packages i use unstable branch, I have seen that vivaldi browser in stable branch is out of date.

As you can see here is some errors about mesa, gpu and more, Is that possible to change the meta version to 24? Also i am not that sure why i am getting the gpu error when it’s just works fine on other browser i’m also on AMD gpu.

I’ve stumbled over this today

It breaks sddm on my system though - almost everything is release-23.11 but hyprland (and therefore mesa) would be using nixpkgs-unstable.

My plan is to switch to unstable soon, I do prefer rolling release distros. The issue should (hopefully) resolve than.

don.dfh · March 24, 2024, 1:03am

Had time to re-test. With my whole system running on nixpkgs-unstable the mesa version errors disappeared.

Hmm, I have used the git version of mesa now it’s works.
