mvirts,

Nothing unsolvable, but it can be a pain when you want to run something not in nixpkgs. My solution is to have Ubuntu on a separate partition, and I was using docker to solve this problem for a while but have moved away from it.

mvirts,

Oh I remember trying this, I should give it another go!

mvirts,

I think ultimately

Sudo nix-collect-garbage --delete-old

Is my go-to command. For a while I was looking at generations manually, but now I just wait a while (days, a few reboots, or until I need more space) to run this after changing things in case the new stuff is broken.

I think running this as my normal user cleans out old env generations… But I’m not 100% sure.

mvirts,

Next chance I get I’m booting without the USB wifi adapter. I’m worried I may have broken something because it was mostly stable before :/ lol I actually don’t have the Nvidia card yet, I ordered a cheap Tesla K80 that’s arriving on Tuesday 😹 and it already brokey system :P

That’s a good idea, I have an Ubuntu partition that I should try.

mvirts,

Looks like dmesg isn’t being logged to disk… But I made my font smaller 😹 https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/7d5b658b-f029-4cce-aeeb-ddcce9760426.jpegDefinitely more to go on there, this happened while playing Minecraft with a small human so I didn’t dig into it yet. I’m pretty sure the kernel I’m running was built by a derivation that applies some preempt patches so I’ll start there. Ubuntu works fine with the adapter, but it’s also not a preemptable kernel.

mvirts,

It’s a 3770k… So super old? 😅 The USB nic is this guy: CF-953AX a.aliexpress.com/_mNfj796

Maybe I should set up a config that doesn’t use a preemptable kernel for when I want faster wifi :P

Maybe this is my chance to actually fix something kernel related

Thanks for taking a look at this, your comments are super helpful.

mvirts,

What do you want from your writing software other than basic text editing?

Mouse or keyboard navigation preferred?

mvirts,

Do you want to use i2p for anonymity?

"Combokeys" instead of hotkeys. [Feature/new command suggestion]

Title. Basically, “if a street fighter gamer and a linux tryhard had a baby” where a combination of keys is issued to run a command/script rather than a single or a simultaneous stroke of two or more. i.e left, down, left, right arrow keys, R_CTRL to run Firefox. Right, right, Up, right arrow keys, delete to power off the...

mvirts,

Looks like you need to look for messages about /dev/md0 and why it may be timing out. Also maybe add nofail to the raid entry in fstab so you can still boot if the root fs is not on it and it fails ( is root on NTFS possible or good?)

I don’t think the edid message is a problem, just an artifact of your monitor not talking to your video card?

Maybe NTFS is the problem, I think it needs special options to automatically remove the dirty bit and replay the journal

mvirts,

mvirts,

Anyone with sudo access can keylog your password

mvirts,

Super smash. The intense gameplay draws me in away from whatever is keeping me from relaxing.

mvirts,

Are you looking for info on how to set the led color or something else?

mvirts,

Gnome 3 has an option to keep one display fixed when changing workspaces… Also most window managers allow you to keep certain windows on all workspaces, maybe that will help?

mvirts,

I’m very happy with the gnome3 screenshot stuff, it’s basically the same as the win10 hotkey.

mvirts,

Ya use gimp, the old standby for impossible screenshots

mvirts,

Yes that’s what I was thinking

mvirts,

Hmmmm do you want to write to both shift register at the same time? I say this because you’re looping 16 times, but seem to be sending the high and low bytes out 16 times over rather than one bit each time, although you are shifting the input.

mvirts,

Maybe I’m getting ahead of myself, but maybe try using digitalWrite for a single bit instead of shiftDataOut?
