ryan4yin | 二花 9db935bc87 fix(sunshine): use Intel rendering and recover remote Niri sessions (#268)
- render Niri on the Intel iGPU while retaining NVIDIA-connected physical outputs
- encode Sunshine streams with Intel VAAPI and wait for a Niri output before startup
- load VKMS persistently for headless sessions and configure `Virtual-1` at 2560x1600@60
- let Moonlight request the stream bitrate instead of enforcing a 20 Mbps host cap
- remove unsupported Dynamic Boost and global NVIDIA session overrides
- grant Sunshine access to virtual input devices
- add a Nushell recovery helper that starts a temporary greetd/Niri session from SSH
- identify and safely replace normal, standalone, or previous transient Niri sessions
- launch the transient service in the background and verify greetd, Niri, and Sunshine before returning
- ignore local `.worktrees` directories and keep eval regression coverage focused on structural behavior

Desktop Environment Configurations

This directory contains desktop environment and window manager configurations managed by Home Manager.

Available Configurations

Window Managers

  • niri: Niri compositor configuration with custom settings, keybindings, spawn-at-startup rules, and window rules

Base Desktop Environment

  • base: Common desktop configurations shared across all environments, including:
    • Noctalia Shell: All-in-one Wayland desktop shell (replaces gammastep, swaylock, anyrun, mako, waybar, wallpaper-switcher, wlogout, and other desktop tools)
    • Creative tools and media applications
    • Development tools
    • Fcitx5 input method framework
    • Games and gaming utilities
    • GTK theme configurations
    • Immutable file handling
    • Note-taking applications
    • Wayland applications
    • XDG desktop configurations

Editor Configurations

  • editors: Text editor configurations and integrations

Why install Desktop Environments in Home Manager instead of NixOS Module?

  1. Configuration Location: Desktop environment configuration files are located in ~/.config, which can be easily managed by Home Manager.

  2. User-specific Services: User-specific systemd services (noctalia-shell, fcitx5, hypridle, etc.) can be easily managed by Home Manager. If desktop environments were configured via NixOS Module, these user-level services might fail to start automatically. With Home Manager modules, we can control systemd service dependency order more effectively.

  3. System Benefits: By minimizing package installation through NixOS Module:

    • Makes the NixOS system more secure and stable
    • Increases portability to non-NixOS systems, as Home Manager can be installed on any Linux system
    • Allows for easier switching between different window managers without system-level changes
