This reply within this thread helped me with this other machine. I'm back up and running well again. https://lemmy.ca/post/48538362/17944139

I'm guessing SystemD wasn't broken on this one like the other one.

Thanks @take6056@feddit.nl

This just happened on another one of my computers with BTRFS. I didn't run pacman or manually run any other installations or updates. This is on a vanilla ArchLinux machine I've installed KDE using archinstall a few months ago. I use this machine often and its the first time it happened on this machine. Perhaps Discovery or Flatpak ran an update in the background. I'm not aware of automatic updates being enabled though.

I have a problem when my computer where when I put it in sleep, or press the power bottom once, it automatically turns back on after sleeping / shutting down. I get frustrated with this sometimes and force shutdown my computer, either by holding the power button or pulling the cable. I know I shouldn't do this. Turning on my monitor, going into the UI, safely shutting down my computer can become very time consuming on my busy schedule. Its rare it happens, but life happens and I sometimes don't have time to wait a minute for my computer.

May I note when going through archinstall and choosing a filesystem, do we want BTRFS or EXT4 to be shown as the default option? Currently BTFS is shown. And there is no way these errors are happening this easy for me, and not across the board.

The backup time machine aspect as BTFS is what drawn me. Except now I strongly agree with @CrankyRebel to stay away from BTRFS, at least for personal out-of-the-box Desktop filesystems.

I wish this was simpler. I never see direct purchases on band websites unless I'm buying physical goods.

[–] dudesss@lemmy.ca 5 points 2 days ago

I agree, fuck Bandcamp, so I only buy on Bandcamp Fridays.

[–] dudesss@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 days ago

Looked into it before. Was a bit too complicated for me.

[–] dudesss@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 days ago

Actually I don't really want guest OSs to think about. Solid point.

Can Vagrant be used for production? Or is there another orchestrator for it for clients or me to quickly provision stuff?

[–] dudesss@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 days ago

Dude, that's super cool!

Can terraform (or OpenTofu) be used to create local VMs as well? I always thought it was just for popular cloud infrastructure like Digital Ocean or Google Cloud.

[–] dudesss@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 days ago

Qemu would be awesome. But I'm looking for more of an orchestrator. I'm on Arch Linux. Incus looks awesome! https://linuxcontainers.org/incus/

Better security and separation of my personal files.

Without Installing another OS like Proxmox, does anyone know any tooling that will easily deploy VMs on my local computer and deploy software stacks on them?

I only have my desktop for hosting, but I also want to continue using it as my personal desktop.

I'd like to host game servers, cloud storage software, websites for clients. And have a portal for me (and potentially them) to be able to provision).

Edit: I'm just finding out about Apache Cloudstack which might do what I'm looking for.

 

I'm using Endeavor OS. My computer lost power during system update. Now I can boot into it.

 

My mouse has terrible range from my computer. If it go too far, it disconnects. It has maybe a metre range.

I have openrazer with polychromatic installed.

Sometimes when my mouse is too far, the way to fix it is reclick the power button on the mouse.

The battery is almost full.

I'm on KDE as well if that helps.

 

Today, after decrypting my encrypted drive, the system failed to boot into it.

I forget what the error said. It maybe said that it could not fine new_root or something.

I tried something like the following, by I don't know what it does.

cryptsetup reencrypt --decrypt --header new_file device_path

I'm not sure what it does and what the --header part does. It was taking too long, so interrupted with a reboot. Now its saying their device is not a valid LUKS device.

Will Graphene OS, Lineage OS, or some other operating system install on a Lenovo Tablet?

Edit: Its a Lenovo P11 Tab Pro Gen 2
