Working in a Virtualbox VM using the standard KDE version of the .iso. I get locked out due to inactivity during a live environment session. Trying to enter the empty password doesn’t help me. How do I deal with this graciously?
I remember NixOS having thing bug while running in VM, but that was almost half a year ago. Can you see if it’s already present in the issues, and if not, create one? Others will appreciate this a lot.
I’ll try to find the time. However, I can’t say I’m organised and willing enough to engage outside of socialist spaces to guarantee doing so.
There’s also Guix, which is a GNU software. To my understanding, most of us are anarchists. However, do be warned - Guix is lacking, compared to NixOS. I left NixOS because of their sponsorship by Anduril.

Oof.
IIRC in the live environment, the password for the “nixos” user is also “nixos”
Also, the lockscreen should be disabled by default, it should not lock due to inactivity.

That was the first thing I tried.
TTY1(?) and what I see elsewhere say that the password is empty.
Yeah, it’s empty by default: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/5defcb4b0d6c286e8b4b2869cf38efb4cdeb5bf4/nixos/modules/profiles/installation-device.nix#L31-L40
Can you login via the tty?
IIRC, when I went into a TTY while on the lock screen, I was already working as the
nixosuser. Is that what you’re asking?
