SteveTech,

Yeah, I’d avoid the cloud version, but SNMP monitoring on the networked version is nice when you want multiple things to shutdown without relying on a single host.

SteveTech, (edited )

I don’t believe so, I think OP just misremembered 1970.

The 1704067200 is the 2024 new year, in seconds from 1970 (normal Unix time).

SteveTech,

I can’t say it isn’t a fork bomb, but it does happen to match IPv6 address with regex.

SteveTech,

I do kinda agree with the others that this is a power issue, but I was thinking it wouldn’t harm to run a memtest, maybe whatever part of RAM the iGPU is mapped to is dying or something like that.

Have you disabled auto start in the DHCP profile?

Edit: Also you should probably think about getting a cheap UPS if you can afford it, if your power is that bad during storms.

SteveTech,

Apologies for the slow reply

No worries, I’m also not that much of a fast replyer.

Have you disabled auto start in the DHCP profile?

I probably could have been a bit clearer what I mean too: Those profiles with DHCP enabled in network manager should have a ‘Connect automatically’ toggle, maybe try just turning them off instead of deleting them, and make sure they’re turned on for the static IP profile.

I also haven’t used Xubuntu in a while, and this is mostly for Debian KDE and Ubuntu, so I’m hoping it’s the same.

SteveTech,

I’m probably wrong, but NVRAM suggests that there should be some way to clear it. (Clearing the CMOS might if you can’t do it in software)

SteveTech,

Woah peertube federating with lemmy is actually really cool!

SteveTech,

It’s not exactly the same spelling, but pickle is already a built in library for saving python objects.

SteveTech,

Is there something else I can try

I use virt-manager, since it uses KVM which should already be present in the kernel.

SteveTech,

I probably wouldn’t describe it as similar, but virt-manager is fairly simple but powerful at the same time (like it will let you expose more advanced KVM/QEMU features like PCIe passthrough and similar).

But like the other guy said, gnome boxes is very straight forward and probably more similar in it’s simplicity.

They both use QEMU + KVM, so you can have both virt-manager and boxes installed at once, and I believe virt-manager (probably boxes too) easily let you use existing VirtualBox .vdi files, if you’ve got an existing VM you want to run. Also like I said before, KVM is already mainlined into the Linux kernel, so you don’t have to install sketchy kernel modules and stuff.

I’ve only used VirtualBox once though, so I can’t really compare them.

SteveTech,

It says that the guest is supposed to have some special software

That sounds like virtio-win. I usually use the iso and mount it from virt-manager, but if the internet is working then I guess you can download the exe.

I’m assuming that I’m supposed to download “libvirtd”

Just searched it up, something like this should work: sudo apt install qemu-kvm libvirt-clients libvirt-daemon-system bridge-utils virtinst libvirt-daemon

Sorry I don’t have too much experience with gnome boxes either, I mostly use virt-manager.

If you’re using gnome disks, it hides the more Linuxy file systems behind an ‘Other’ option.

Personally, for removable drives I prefer to use

  • ext4 for HDDs
  • f2fs for SSDs
  • exfat for Windows compatibility

If it’s grayed out or you’re getting errors try searching up ‘how to format as [file system] in [Pop OS/Ubuntu/Linux]’, you might need some extra packages.

SteveTech,

I’m pretty sure there’s no difference between internal and external ext4 (at least how gnome disks handles it), so I think it’s just trying to make sure users don’t freak out when they format it as ext4 and think their data is all gone on Windows.

Also when it’s grayed out you usually just have to install the fuse driver and file system tools, IIRC for exfat you install exfat-fuse and exfatprogs.

SteveTech,

It was pretty much plug and play for me, I don’t really play much but it’s worked for any game I’ve thrown at it (although there was some artifacting in CS2). I’ve also done some AI stuff with it and haven’t had any issues.

SteveTech,

I wasn’t able to enable VRR on my monitor (with freesync). I’m using KDE Wayland on Debian Testing, just wondering if you knew a workaround or something?

SteveTech,

I’m running 6.5.10, also with an A770. I could maybe try/compile 6.6 later, but 6.5 seems new enough I thought.

SteveTech,

Yeah no change with 6.6, I guess I’ll probably open an issue somewhere when I have the time to figure out what’s broken.

SteveTech,

Yep, it’s definitely using DisplayPort!

SteveTech, (edited )

Okay so for whatever reason, turning Freesync on and off a bunch of times from the OSD and then replugging works until the next reboot, so I’ve dumped the working EDID and I’m trying to figure out how to load it at boot (but I’m not having much luck).

For reference, the monitor is a Samsung LC24RG50.

Edit: Got the EDID loaded, KDE says it’s supported, but VRRTest doesn’t really seem to do anything.

Edit 2: Other games work fine.

SteveTech,

Outlook has had this for a while, and I use it a fair bit to acknowledge that I’ve read the email, but without actually replying.
