I have installed usb #wifi dongles and an #SDR software defined radio receiver on a #nixOS machine lenovo T480s but had a #usb question. The key steps in both cases was restarting rebooting the computer: the exact opposite of #plugandplay . Is there a nixOS trick I am missing? Having to restart the machine feels so wrong in a nix world. In practical terms it makes installation very hard because one does not know if a reboot is needed or if the flake needs a software fix. Ideas welcome!
