It also sounds like clearing your throat, then spitting!

Haugck - Tooie!

Edit: and now I see that was the joke

Musicolet is my choice too.It’s not on fdroid, but the dev makes the apk available from their site

No, that’s handled by ARP requests. In this case, it’s likely that the DHCP server is on the gateway, as that’s a pretty common setup for home ISP router arrangements.

Gateway refers to a router that has access to other networks. In this case, the default gateway, which will be the router that has access to the internet.

DNS or name servers are a separate option in DHCP leases, as are the IP addresses for DHCP servers, which are more of a windows thing generally.

In this case this comment is probably an accurate description of what’s happened:

You might check your BIOS clock time too, if the certs are ‘expired’, it might be the future, or more likely, the past. Certs have validity timers that specify start and end.

It’s more likely that your BIOS is just old, and you’ll have to keep secure boot disabled from now on.

I’d hesitate to call it truly enterprise, but I’ve used the 24 port/10Gbe version of these in a datacenter. Not many issues to write home about - seems to handle vlanning pretty well.

Has 10Gbe uplinks, US power, and PoE+. Probably access to a fancy dashboard too.

$1600 is probably as cheap as you’re getting.

Edit: Oh yeah, they’re probably not dual attached, and the ‘redundant power supply’ (RPS) is a separate appliance, which I consider kinda bullshit, that takes up another U.

I’ve had no trouble with actual switching performance though fwiw.

Edit 2: They’re probably compatible with the AR mobile app, which is hella cool, and somewhat useful in customer sites.

Do not forget to log out and log back in after you add yourself to a new group. Your desktop environment is a program, and it won’t know about the update until you spawn a new graphical shell with the updated permissions.

Just in case it’s not clear from the replies - you can edit pdfs in libre office draw. Text, images, arangements, whatever. It’s all editable.

You’d be surprised. I’ve got a mid-tier i7 laptop from 2017 and it munches through most productivity tasks.

It’s my i9 desktop that suffers when I’m running everything I want to have up. Between containers and compilers, VMs and videos, tabs and terminals, you can really put the hurt on a machine. I likely won’t be swapping until everyhing has adopted 45, or until I figure out how to make hyprland work the way I want it to

I don’t have a particular problem with their security, I just don’t have a clear picture of what they’re about yet - and I don’t want to give the impression that I’ve investigated it and found everything’s in order.

Gnome’s mouse thing is about running the human input devices in a separate thread, prioritized over the rest of its spawned processes. The practical upshot is, if your system is chugging under the weight of too many programs, your input won’t be laggy

I’m not a a current user of immutable distros, but I’m in the same boat as you. Interested in immutable os’s, running fedora workstation, getting bored.

I’ve been working on independent setups to see how I’d get customization working on an immutable distro. Some combination of containers seems like how I’d go. See this explanation.

For example, I’m running a wayland system, and RemoteApp/Rails on freerdp only works with X. Xwayland is currently broken on my system (installed as fedora 39 *beta). I require this for work. I installed distrobox with debian 12 bookworm, installed the required packages and it works like a charm.

On immutable OS’sI have been watching Vanilla OS for a while. I really like what I see. I’m just not sure what the security posture of it is.

The biggest thing holding me back is Gnome 45. It’s so good. Having an independent prioritized thread for mouse/keys makes it feel so smooth.

I’ve built hyprland and begun adding all the essential pieces to make it a viable replacement for Gnome. I’m not there yet, but once I figure out ad-hoc multi-monitor support with docks, I will be.

*edit

Lining up the wires, ensuring they’re straight and making sure they’re trimmed to the same length will help avoid crossover too.

You can help straighten them on the square edge of a table, just press them between your finger and the table at the part that’s stripped from the insulation, then pull them over the edge applying pressure the whole time.

You can also look for the newer cat 6 connectors. Lots of brands have an insert that you can slot the wires in to before putting them in the housing, which helps a lot.

Try forge, I’ve had some minor difficulties on gnome 45, but it seems like a competent tiling extension otherwise

https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/5571/focus-window/

Something like this would do it. Looks unmaintained as of Gnome 41. It may or may not work with higher versions

This will definitely be a problem if you upgrade to 45, as all plugins will need to be updated to work.

That’s a real shame, because your question reignited my own search for the same thing

One only has to remember all the ‘keywords’ under a youtube video back in the day, it was a nightmare to whittle things down to what you wanted

Thank god

Sweet! Yeah, I’m guessing that the iptables-mangle and landing page link setup relies on getting that IP before populating the page, and that it’s not reactive to changing IP address. It might have worked if you were disconnecting networking all together, and joining a different network, but with the wonky way wifi roaming actually works, the mediabox management scripts probably never noticed there was a need to re-trigger.

You’re looking for mdns! Depends on which distro you’re on. For apt based stuff like mint, look for mdns (used to be libnss-mdns on raspberry pis, guessing it’s the same for mint? It’ll install avahi zeroconf stuff if it’s not there already. Check the service is running, then ping $HOSTNAME.local - replace with whatever your host name is.

If you’re starting the mediabox setup on the isp network, it’s doing local natting with iptables, based on the IP that it resolves from the hostname. Probably would need to shut down and re-up to walk between the deco’s and the isp wifi domains.

I agree with the other comments, looks like you might be in a double NAT scenario - fortunately for you, I think I know how to fix it, seeing as we’re both running deco’s!

You want to go into the smartphone app, go to ‘More’ at the bottom right, (as opposed to ‘Network’), Advanced > Operation Mode > Access point.

Be aware this will cause a disruption, and anything connected to them will need to be reconnected so it gets dhcp/ip addressing from the isp router rather than the deco.

The other alternative is, if they’re already in AP mode, it might be recognizing the deco SSID as a separate network to your ISP’s router, and randomizing your mac address (for anonymity across airports and hotels and such). Then, with your original mac address holding the first IP in lease, your ‘new’ mac address gets a different one. Check your mac with ip link too when connected to the two different networks, and see if you can find an option to set it manually for both networks, or just use your default one for those networks.

I’d love to hear how you get on, I’ve been putting off building this exact solution (mediabox) from scratch, had no idea there was a project set up to run it all

I have, I think the one time I tried it (5 years ago, on a different machine, os and X11), it wasn’t snappy enough. Probably time to go back and check it out!

Guake has this annoying bug on wayland gnome where the interface complains that ‘keybindings can’t be set’, so you control it through custom keybindings that run terminal commands to show and hide the terminal.

And we shall watch its development with great interest.

Thanks!

guake-terminal for a full-screen overlay terminal, I have a keybinding for transparency toggle so I can read guides through the overlay. I used to use tilda, but I switched because they weren’t supporting wayland.

For random/ad-hoc terminals I’ve historically used gnome-terminal and console, but recently I’ve been trying to eliminate window decoration entirely, and for that I’ve been liking black box (flatpak) for the floating decoration and other configuration bits.

They both support theming, and have dracula included by default, so it was easy enough to get a consistent look and feel.

I have tabs switched off for all of them. That’s what tmux is for.

edit: I’ll probably be checking out alacritty
