Emptty does not restart on logout - NixOS #88

Closed the-argus closed 1 year ago

the-argus commented 1 year ago

I've made further progress on the NixOS module for emptty since my last issue. At the moment, it's working almost completely as expected, (and I'm going to make a PR to nixpkgs!!) but if I quit my windowmanager or log out of gnome (after having launched them from emptty), I am dropped into a tty with nothing but a flashing white underscore in the top left. This is the same behavior that I see whenever I am in a graphical session started by lightdm, and I systemctl stop lightdm.

It's expected behaviour, emptty does not start itself. Default approach is to restart emptty via init inside init script.

Currently I'm not planning to make it endlessly running by its own.

Ah okay- I figured it was something with my service script. Thanks.
