There’s a step missing in the article to repair the bootloader. In it, you reinstall the kernel but this resets the flags for the packages in the package manager so they’re no longer automatically cleaned up, causing the boot partition to fill up. I’ll reach out to support soon to see what the default settings should be so that I can correct it. 🙂
Eventually, I’ll probably look at seeing if I can help update the steps on their end to include all this information since the docs are open source:)
Will probably need to remap the audio jacks as well. No idea how to do that so some reading is required!
Seems rather contentious! Just installed Synaptic here and it’ll definitely serve my purposes of searching out packages for install. 🙂
I do have one in the closet from fifteen years ago. It’s an old X-Fi. I may dig it out and see if it still works at some point
So after hooking up the VR headset and having it unplugged at bootup, the video card is getting confused about which video output to use even though the monitor is the only one hooked in to the card. Takes a minute or so for it to figure it out and then it works right. Rather minor problem but I may take a look in the UEFI and see if there’s a way to correct things in there but I suspect it’s something in the card’s firmware and would need to be fixed by a card revision
Anything else I should consider doing? Been a long time since I had to set up a system 🙂
For reference purposes, here’s the tab in the style pack that adds theme support to bbPress: https://stearnvault.com/wp-admin/options-general.php?page=bbp-style-pack&tab=bsp_block_theme
Not seeing much else of interest in the style pack at the moment but that’ll likely change as we go through stuff!
Oh! I’ve just about hit the limits of a free player in Eve. Well, with skill training at least. It only takes about a month of skill training to max out the skills available to free players. Not sure about game content yet as I just got out of the tutorial the other day 🙂
And finally got Starfield added to the wishlist. Took me long enough 😛
Another large one: 125 GB! This is really getting out of hand!
Beautiful!
Currently using Firefox but I’ve got Chrome downloaded. I’ll probably get it installed soon as I greatly prefer it 🙂
Bit funny about security so I’ll post it in our private thread 🙂
I wouldn’t exactly say they’re easy to work with but they’re getting better! Having a log-viewer definitely helps as the CLI tools can be a bit cumbersome with looking at the logs
Yeah, I really should get a UPS. Will add it to the list!
The VR base stations do make a noticeable humming noise but I wouldn’t call it obnoxious or anything 🙂
Definitely not a fan of the Pop Store. It has a limited view that, while sleek, doesn’t give you enough information. For instance, it doesn’t always tell you the last update to the package or if it’s a Flatpack or not. Not a fan of Flatpack installs as it adds some dependency issues that the regular package managers take care of so things aren’t as neat and tidy with Flatpack. May try out Synaptic. I like having both a GUI package manager and a CLI one for different use cases. I like to use the graphical one to find software, the CLI one to install to help me monitor things so that I can better take care of issues if they arise
Eureka! Windows audio has been resolved! Okay, you need to install the audio drivers from Gigabyte as well. Windows doesn’t source them automatically and I wasn’t able to find them on the Realtek website. Connecting is a bit finicky: you need to remap the jacks in the Realtek Audio Console to speaker output jacks. It does mean you lose line in and mic jacks, though, and the Mira doesn’t have front jacks so with this configuration you’ll definitely need a sound card if you want analog line-in and mic-in. The other option is to go USB for the line-in and mic-in.
