Hi Guixers,
(define myself (guix-noob-user (not (programmer))))
Trying to change console font with the following in "services" section
of my system configuration file :
----
…
(services (append (list
…
(service console-font-service-type
`(("tty3" . ,(file-append font-terminus
"/share/consolefonts/ter-128n"))))
) %desktop-services))
…
----
which results in the following error when reconfiguring the system :
----
$ sudo guix system --dry-run reconfigure /etc/config.scm
guix system: error: service 'console-font-tty3' provided more than once
----
I probably missunderstand something and/or ill-format the
configuration…?… Help appreciated.
Below is the related [(guix) Base services] Texinfo section.
----
--scheme Variable: console-font-service-type
Install the given fonts on the specified ttys (fonts are per
virtual console on the kernel Linux). The value of this service is
a list of tty/font pairs. The font can be the name of a font
provided by the ‘kbd’ package or any valid argument to ‘setfont’,
as in this example:
`(("tty1" . "LatGrkCyr-8x16")
("tty2" . ,(file-append
font-tamzen
"/share/kbd/consolefonts/TamzenForPowerline10x20.psf"))
("tty3" . ,(file-append
font-terminus
"/share/consolefonts/ter-132n"))) ; for HDPI
