Is there a non-video source for this information?
After much fighting with and trying of other solution, that’s what I ended up settling with.
Something something “Looking Glass”
Used Ubuntu for ~15 years, switched to NixOS a couple months ago and haven’t looked back.
I’ve made a habit of clean installing all of the desktops/laptops/servers in my life on the first point release of each LTS (i.e. 22.04.1). That would mean there was time for the dust to settle and for me to tweak my install/customization scripts from the previous LTS.
So since I knew I was gonna have to modify my Ubuntu install scripts to work with 24.04 anyways, I fiigured it was a decent time to try and see if I could get the install scripts converted to a nix config instead, and it ended up working a treat.
