Have been keeping half an eye on framework laptops as a potential next daily driver as and when I'm ready for one.
Just wondering what people's experience of using them on linux has been, particularly nixos
I'm assuming all the drivers are in the kernel given the way the company is
Have been using a 2016 thinkpad for the past year or so and have had a decent experience with it, with the way lenovo have gone with their newer thinkpads it seems like framework is now the best for maintainability/upgradability
(not planning to upgrade in the immediate future as this machine is doing fine, but frameworks are a strong contender in my mind right now and I'm curious as to people's experience)
Oh. The problem wasn't the hardware. Don't let my experience dissuade you, especially if you already know and like NixOS. It was the NixOS docs and my unfamiliarity with Nix/NixOS. Following the official docs gave me an install that worked perfectly but had no networking. I might give it another go once the docs are more mature but the experience and need of a DSL left a bad taste in my mouth.
Ahh I see ok makes more sense
Already got thousands of lines of nix config so not about to hop distro lol
Yeah. You shouldn't have an issue then - all of the nix stuff worked as it was supposed. Really a documentation problem more than anything.
