The X1's Intel Wireless-AC 9560 attaches, associates over WPA2/CCMP, and passes encrypted traffic both ways under solnix — driven by a port of the OpenBSD iwm driver, packaged as a pure Nix derivation.
A correctness prerequisite for driving laptop GPUs is proven: the wifi (iwm) and Intel GPU (i915) drivers load into one running kernel at once with zero cross-wired symbols. This is a milestone, not a working desktop — the GPU does not yet drive the display.
solnix installs and runs on a real Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Extreme from a USB image — a full disk install with the NixOS workflow intact (ZFS boot environments, solnix-rebuild, generations, sudo). Headless today; graphics are still in bring-up.
