This config is for [Librem 13v3](https://puri.sm/products/librem-13/) and [15v3](https://puri.sm/products/librem-15/) Laptops from Purism.

Librem comes with Coreboot + SeaBIOS payload. That means EFI boot is not
possible. Use `fdisk` to partition hard drive, and GRUB as a bootloader:
```nix
{
boot.loader.grub = {
enable = true;
device = "/dev/sda";
version = 2;
};
}
```

## Adding a PureOS partition to the GRUB menu
I first assume that `boot.loader.grub.useOSProber = true;` should be sufficient.
However GRUB was not able to identify the disks correctly and it took me several
reinstallation till setting `boot.loader.grub.fsIdentifier= "provided";` and using
boot.loader.grub.extraEntries allowed me to dual boot NixOS and PureOS.
Be aware that each time the PureOS updates the /boot/grub/grub.cfg you will be unable
to boot into NixOS unless you patch grub.cfg manually again.
Therefore: If you want to be able to boot into your old PureOS distribution
add the following lines, assuming that you have a separate boot partition
Adapt linux version and the UUID to your disk!!
```nix
{
boot.loader.grub.useOSProber = false;
boot.loader.grub.fsIdentifier= "provided";
boot.loader.grub.extraEntries = ''
menuentry "PureOS with linux 4.19.0-5-amd64 on /dev/sdb2 " {
insmod gzio
if [ x$grub_platform = xxen ]; then insmod xzio; insmod lzopio; fi
insmod part_msdos
insmod ext2
set root='hd0,msdos1'
if [ x$feature_platform_search_hint = xy ]; then
search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=root --hint-bios=hd0,msdos1 --hint-efi=hd0,msdos1 --hint-baremetal=ahci0,msdos1 ef7a4dcf-8cc4-4870-b860-3ed64906f9b9
else
search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=root ef7a4dcf-8cc4-4870-b860-3ed64906f9b9
fi

## Automatically lock the desktop when removing the librem key
The [instructions](https://docs.puri.sm/Librem_Key/Getting_Started/User_Manual.html#automatically-lock-the-desktop-when-removing-the-librem-key) to lock the screen after unplugging the [Librem Key](https://puri.sm/products/librem-key/#overview) don't work under NixOS.
This snippet works on my Librem 15v3 laptop running KDE without wayland and is using the xlock from the package xlockmore.
```nix
{ pkgs, services , systemd, ... }:
let
libremScreenSaver = pkgs.writeScriptBin "libremScreenSaver" ''
#!${pkgs.bash}/bin/bash
user=`ps aux | egrep "start_kdeinit|gdm-(wayland|x)-session"| head -n 1 | awk '{print $1}'`
if [ -n "$user" ]; then
sudo -u $user DISPLAY=:0 xlock 2>&1 | logger lockScreen for user $user
else
logger libremScreenSaver failed to find a user. Not running KDE?
fi
'';
in {
services.udev.path = [ pkgs.procps pkgs.logger pkgs.gawk pkgs.xlockmore ];
services.udev.extraRules = ''
ACTION=="remove", ENV{PRODUCT}=="316d/4c4b/101" RUN+="${pkgs.systemd}/bin/systemctl --no-block start lockScreen@%k.service"
'';
systemd.services."lockScreen@" = {
bindsTo = [ "dev-%i.device"] ;
path = [ pkgs.procps pkgs.logger pkgs.sudo pkgs.xlockmore pkgs.gawk ] ;
serviceConfig = {
Type = "oneshot"; # was simple
ExecStart = "${libremScreenSaver}/bin/libremScreenSaver %I";
};
};
}
```
