passwd root  # 重置 root 密码
useradd -m -G wheel dash  # 添加普通用户,并加入 wheel 组

Install awesome:

nix-env -qaP awesome
sudo nix-env -iA nixpkgs.awesome

Not the right way, the right way should be:

$ sudo vim /etc/nixos/configuration.nix
  services.xserver = {
    enable = true;

  
    displayManager = {
        sddm.enable = true;
        defaultSession = "none+awesome";
    };

    windowManager.awesome = {
      enable = true;
      luaModules = with pkgs.luaPackages; [
        luarocks # is the package manager for Lua modules
        luadbi-mysql # Database abstraction layer
      ];

    };
  };
