I'm on NixOS unstable, just trying to set up a working GNOME system. I enabled services.xserver.desktopManager.gnome3.enable, enabled services.xserver.displayManager.gdm.enable, but whenever I try to log in, I just get a gray screen, and nothing else. I can move my pointer around, but that's it.



Am I missing something? How can I install GNOME in NixOS?



Here's my full configuration.nix, if that helps.



Edit: journalctl -g gnome-shell shows this: 



Nov 12 18:52:49 jon-laptop .gnome-shell-wr[971]: gnome-shell: Fatal IO error 11 (Resource temporarily unavailable) on X server :0.
