Solution in #nixos #flake for machine ThinkPad #x230 seems to be:
services.xserver.enable = true;
services.displayManager.gdm.enable = true;
services.desktopManager.gnome.enable = true;
services.desktopManager.gnome.flashback.enableMetacity = true;
# At the GDM login screen, click the gear # icon to choose between:
# - "GNOME" (Wayland)
# - "GNOME Flashback (Metacity)" #X11
and
nixos-rebuild boot + reboot is required (not switch) when jumping across major nixpkgs versions -

I am trying to update my #nixos flake and discover that #x11 is not supported by the latest #gnome but I also know that some of my hardware (#HPelitedesk800 , VM machines running xrdp and x11spice) fails to show correct windows under #wayland so this is very un-linuxy and I feel like a sort of macos hardware obsolescence vibe ... Or is #Xfce the new way forward here for the good old tech? Thinkpad #x230 once failed with fifo underrun on pipe B when running wayland

This might not look like much but remarkably it's a ThinkPad X230 using an RLCD display (Pixel Qi PQ3Qi-01 N101L8-L01)
How this never took off I'll never know, it looks superb!

Just in case it is of interest, the #Huawei #E3372 LTE USB #dongle #usbstick #cellularmodem works on a #Thinkpad #X230 under #nixos running #gnome. Details of #configurationdotnix in replies to this post. Credits: chatGPT iteratively....
Important: use http://192.168.8.1 to set SIM pin manually after the device has been shown to be recognised and modeswitched using the checks:
lsusb
nmcli
ls /dev/cdc-wdm*
lsmod | grep cdc
and importantly:
usb_modeswitch --version
returns a good output message -

Running #nixos #nixos25dot05 with #gnome or #kde_plasma desktop on #lenovo #thinkpad #x230 seems to require
services.xserver.displayManager.gdm.wayland = false;This was what #chatgpt told me, and the fix it worked.
I used #flakes for the first time by following this nice video https://youtu.be/ACybVzRvDhs
