I've reinstalled the system multiple times with different DE's (LXQt, Mate, XFCE) and DM's (slim, GDM), but the issue persists: The first time I try to login, it works, everything is loaded the way I'd expect it, but as soon as I install anyting (using "guix install ...") and *then* log out, and try to log in again, the screen just blinks and throws me back into the login screen of my display manager. I've tried changing /etc/config.scm and keeping it the same, reveting package instalations, but nothing seems to change anything. When running "startx" in a TTY, I get this message, no matter what WM I try to use: xauth: file /home/phi/.serverauth.1225 does not exist xinit: unable to run server "/gnu/store/i3hrd6d3wrxy5fc9i2kcv115sjm8xm8f-xinit-1.4.1/bin/X": No such file or directory Use the -- option, or make sure that /gnu/store/i3hrd6d3wrxy5fc9i2kcv115sjm8xm8f-xinit-1.4.1/bin is in your path and that "/gnu/store/i3hrd6d3wrxy5fc9i2kcv115sjm8xm8f-xinit-1.4.1/bin/X" is a program or a link to the right type of server for your display. Possible server names include: Xorg Common X server for most displays Xvfb Virtual frame buffer Xfake kdrive-based virtual frame buffer Xnest X server nested in a window on another X server Xephyr kdrive-based nested X server Xvnc X server accessed over VNC's RFB protocol Xdmx Distributed Multi-head X server Note that "X" isn't placed in /gnu/store/...-xinit-1.4.1/bin/X, but as far as I see /gnu/store/...-xorg-server-1.20.4/bin/X. Is this a known bug? Are there any workarounds? In case there are any questions or I didn't go into enough detail, please tell me, and I'll gladly offer more information. I'll attach the output of "guix package -I" and "-l" to this mail, in case than may help. -- With kind regards, Philip K. --=-=-= Content-Type: text/plain Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=generations Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Generation 1 May 25 2019 14:37:32 emacs 26.2 out /gnu/store/b38pn0gnj4jsrf79lg4kr80rn5kaim0q-emacs-26.2 openssh 8.0p1 out /gnu/store/ay4yprhkm36a4339br9ll38xxkz77xv3-openssh-8.0p1 msmtp 1.8.4 out /gnu/store/xpbp0728bmnb1syjqlgvrib4743m9fv8-msmtp-1.8.4 mpop 1.4.4 out /gnu/store/m6v79f4r6z7m3wr2s5lvl93w0lj7fnls-mpop-1.4.4 nethack 3.6.2 out /gnu/store/6ahj0c8bglk9xshp8hgr59dy7fab40k1-nethack-3.6.2 font-dejavu 2.37 out /gnu/store/8w13xk33yrxw2hfzcvv28mxn35wfg4g7-font-dejavu-2.37 font-liberation 2.00.5 out /gnu/store/q9n76yx8vwcssmw1a70yb0jgg4fzvj5i-font-liberation-2.00.5 curl 7.64.0 out /gnu/store/09x4p4ywz39xzy42kmscfi2nnhwjgybd-curl-7.64.0 adwaita-icon-theme 3.28.0 out /gnu/store/2pnz7bqa8cl80yrn1xy7jddiag8xf321-adwaita-icon-theme-3.28.0 nvi 1.81.6 out /gnu/store/zmvqwigl272wix47f3wp43zwam8a0h7v-nvi-1.81.6 syncthing 1.1.2 out /gnu/store/w71s9q93s3nbml11g671gpa82h9mcfpr-syncthing-1.1.2 git-minimal 2.21.0 out /gnu/store/d3dcz3b3jrby9ncigacw9mihirfl66l8-git-minimal-2.21.0 idris 1.3.1 out /gnu/store/gl8dr6nw98ffqwckzbnqpq1fss1qnsrg-idris-1.3.1 ghc 8.4.3 out /gnu/store/8v1sn5ns7r5n02aip0b0ypyyzb2y1i1a-ghc-8.4.3 gcc-toolchain 9.1.0 out /gnu/store/aqv6njg05w2yqh8krgrjy0wcbfxb4nn3-gcc-toolchain-9.1.0 clang 7.0.1 out /gnu/store/qlnjxk5l4j0l9i7glz44y5zkalsfnf6j-clang-7.0.1 make 4.2.1 out /gnu/store/p62f90him5qvm4f1zaqyrhdwkqxqj2c4-make-4.2.1 sbcl 1.5.1 out /gnu/store/qgwpf8k3ri1c223yn64g8mbns6l7ry68-sbcl-1.5.1 aspell-dict-en 2018.04.16-0 out /gnu/store/ah45m7xb3xxjzxwy404np91ggbs897lk-aspell-dict-en-2018.04.16-0 aspell-dict-de 20030222-1 out /gnu/store/k7700ch8jnqrcs0gjwqf2lqlaqvgdcdy-aspell-dict-de-20030222-1 aspell 0.60.6.1 out /gnu/store/grwsidd4jq6sjfyf0blvdgb565l6dzhp-aspell-0.60.6.1 icecat 60.6.2-guix1 out /gnu/store/c5ah61yvyi4qwqp1clya1f95gi2jyxzs-icecat-60.6.2-guix1 mpv 0.29.1 out /gnu/store/ikw5b5m7qplyqv5bywmviqbmnvqfdbw0-mpv-0.29.1 mpd 0.21.8 out /gnu/store/9yvbxam8jwggwya0a2vkl5n1svw2g945-mpd-0.21.8 mpc 1.1.0 out /gnu/store/axx517wbpj9z5ivz1n60irgncfv80a2q-mpc-1.1.0 ncmpc 0.34 out /gnu/store/nbjwp4fdzl46kglm3wxl21h9mzslfid0-ncmpc-0.34 notmuch 0.28.3 out /gnu/store/a88nkw6clm4llid7c37b7qinxb4j10pa-notmuch-0.28.3 xsetroot 1.1.2 out /gnu/store/2g9lg07bgqp7hp5111y0ksnpap8bb60l-xsetroot-1.1.2 xset 1.2.4 out /gnu/store/af5xnphd8nl3qsrvq312idvbbq1y4vs6-xset-1.2.4 xrdb 1.2.0 out /gnu/store/8wj5mdv9qka9lpyzfgv3rfpyzhicsyxh-xrdb-1.2.0 dvtm 0.15 out /gnu/store/bi2sw7397p9nz8qm3ys6jqkiidw7z7a3-dvtm-0.15 abduco 0.6 out /gnu/store/0188dkbnwsbc4i98jpvb13hvdn7yw3m8-abduco-0.6 Generation 2 May 25 2019 15:04:45 + password-store 1.7.3 out /gnu/store/2wkcdfipgabasnwwsyhxd20zd3qdc3y3-password-store-1.7.3 + xkill 1.0.5 out /gnu/store/ay8aj1lc219rym8ykgfbvr6di05gb715-xkill-1.0.5 Generation 3 May 25 2019 15:35:19 + gnupg 2.2.15 out /gnu/store/8wll6k1dpjzdy3wj1lwckxzvjf6745qg-gnupg-2.2.15 Generation 4 May 25 2019 15:50:48 (current) + xinit 1.4.1 out /gnu/store/i3hrd6d3wrxy5fc9i2kcv115sjm8xm8f-xinit-1.4.1 + xmonad 0.15 out /gnu/store/7xfbbkhwpxlbhc819a8jgh1qn8yycddn-xmonad-0.15 + xorg-server 1.20.4 out /gnu/store/6yar7xifqhywhwz72djqrz8v88y5i3vj-xorg-server-1.20.4 --=-=-= Content-Type: text/plain Content-Disposition: attachment;

I'm sad to say that I have had to give up on using Guix (for now), since I didn't have enough time to properly configure the system to my needs during university (thanks for the responses anyways!). Nevertheless, I managed to solve the issue by reading through the manual, and it was unrelated to my initial suspicion, and as you mention had to do with the xsession file containing a command (I believe it was "xset") that I hadn't installed in my user profile. After removing said lines, any all DE's worked as expected. Ultimately, I'd still see this as a kind of bug, since the in the case of GDM no error message appeared at all, and SLiM generated two written *over* one another, with little information on what exactly was wrong. Or is it generally not advised to use an .xsession file?
