Also, it seems like this requires the latest "stateversion", since this is a new feature.

This is pretty big, because it makes it easy to use applications that use the GPU from nixpkgs on non Nixos systems.

You need to update home-manager, but you should not change your stateVersion. That option should always be kept on the version you installed it on.
