The laptop was still on the Hyprland-era Pantheon commit while the desktop
moved to KDE Plasma 6 + Limine and split system.nix into focused modules.
This brings over everything that isn't hardware, unchanged, so both machines
stay diffable:
- Plasma 6 on Wayland with SDDM, Konsole, gruvbox icons, KDE MIME defaults
(replaces Pantheon/LightDM; libreoffice-qt6 replaces the GTK build)
- Limine bootloader with the gruvbox theme, replacing systemd-boot
- system.nix split into boot/networking/locale/nix-settings/security
- flakes + nix-command, sysctl hardening extras (yama, tcp_timestamps),
geoclue off, captive-portal probe off
- package parity: obs-studio, lmms, go, qemu, KDE utilities, lean SDR++ and
rtl_433 overrides with hardware.rtl-sdr
Hardware and power are adapted rather than copied:
- hardware.nix keeps the AMD 680M + RTX 4050 PRIME offload setup, asusd and
supergfxd, v4l2loopback webcam and the DualSense ERTM fix; OpenRGB and
the desktop's single-GPU block are dropped, keyboard lighting is asusctl
- power.nix is new: power-profiles-daemon for Plasma's profile switcher,
lid-close handling via the current logind.settings.Login spelling,
powertop/acpi, notes on asusctl charge limits
- no acpi_enforce_resources=lax, ACPI owns the EC asusd drives here
- touchpad defaults, and firewall openings so the hotspot script's shared
connection can hand out DHCP/DNS
- pinentry-qt instead of the desktop's leftover pinentry-rofi, blueman
dropped in favour of Plasma's bluedevil
hardware-configuration.nix stays tracked here (unlike the desktop, which
gitignores it) since it's the only record of this machine's disk layout.

Configures Pantheon (LightDM + gala) for daily use on this ASUS TUF
Gaming A15 (FA507NU), and drops everything that only existed to serve
the previous Hyprland/Quickshell setup:
- desktop.nix: services.desktopManager.pantheon instead of
programs.hyprland + greetd; comfy laptop touchpad defaults.
- drivers.nix: NVIDIA PRIME render offload between the AMD Radeon 680M
(drives the panel) and the RTX 4050 Max-Q (offload-only), using this
machine's real PCI bus IDs; asusd/supergfxd for ASUS-specific laptop
control.
- apps.nix / scripts.nix: removed Hyprland/Quickshell-only packages and
scripts (kitty, rofi, quickshell, mako, hyprlock, hyprpaper/mpvpaper,
the Quickshell theme-picker scripts, cursor/wallpaper/display
helpers) — Pantheon ships its own Files/Terminal/Screenshot/
notifications/theming natively. Kept the DE-agnostic scripts (vault
toggle, metadata stripping, brightness control, Wi-Fi hotspot,
telemetry, weather).
- theme.nix and default-apps.nix deleted entirely — Pantheon owns
GTK/icon theming itself, no more live dconf/CSS generation pipeline
needed.
- Deleted hyprland/ and dotfiles/ (kitty, mako, quickshell, rofi).
Verified with `nixos-rebuild build`.
