Enumerate unsupported PCI devices and run an error page when unsupported devices are found. (run-welcome-page): Add #:pci-database and pass it to 'check-hardware-support' and to the recursive call. * gnu/installer/record.scm ()[welcome-page]: Adjust comment. * doc/guix.texi (Hardware Considerations): Mention it. --- gnu/installer/hardware.scm | 90 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ gnu/installer/newt.scm | 4 +- gnu/installer/newt/welcome.scm | 38 ++++++++++++++---- gnu/installer/record.scm | 2 +- 4 files changed, 124 insertions(+), 10 deletions(-) create mode 100644 gnu/installer/hardware.scm (limited to 'gnu/installer') diff --git a/gnu/installer/hardware.scm b/gnu/installer/hardware.scm new file mode 100644 index 0000000000..cd1a1767d8 --- /dev/null +++ b/gnu/installer/hardware.scm @@ -0,0 +1,90 @@ +;;; GNU Guix --- Functional package management for GNU +;;; Copyright © 2022 Ludovic Courtès +;;; +;;; This file is part of GNU Guix. +;;; +;;; GNU Guix is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it +;;; under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by +;;; the Free Software Foundation; either version 3 of the License, or (at +;;; your option) any later version. +;;; +;;; GNU Guix is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, but +;;; WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of +;;; MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
