Hi.
Tried to install nix but am stuck with an issue Iâm not able to resolve. Whenever I boot the system, it uses approx 5min on the boot-up of Nixos Stage #1 as seen in the picture. After a while it will boot into the system but without a GUI. Iâve done the installation twice, with different isos to make sure I didnât do it wrong. It only works if I downgrade to nixos 23.11, but if I update(+plasma 6) from there It results in the same problem.
The error is:
kernel: Acpi Error: Aborting method (long string) due to previous error (AE_AML_UNINITIALIZED_ELEMENT)
Have no idea what this error is, and there donât seem to be alot of info on it. Reaching out here to see if anyone is able to help me troubleshoot this, as I would really like to try latest Nixos.
I have the same motherboard! I also rock the AMD 6700 XT graphics card, which I acquired this year, so it would defo leave a sour taste in my mouth if this was the guilty puzzlepiece in the my stack.
Whilst trying to install other .isoâs late last night i kept seeing the ACPI errors over and over again, which has me thinking this is a problem with my hardware setup, as you suggested by others. Journalctl command results in this if thats to any help; https://0x0.st/Xt2e.txt
and this is lsmod;
lunix@fedora:~$ lsmod | grep amdgpu
amdgpu 17293312 158

drm_ttm_helper 12288 1 amdgpu
ttm 118784 2 amdgpu,drm_ttm_helper
Did you grep that log file for âamdgpuâ?
I wonder if the error is related to this: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/229108
Iâm still using x11 on my system. Maybe try that and see if it works?
