Can I get a QRD on Appimage, flatpak and snap?
Pros/cons? Which should I use?

>>103106596
Use Flatpak, for its runtime sharing and ease of installation and updates.
Use AppImage if you want a self-contained executable without any sandboxing (for example, hw-probe is a good fit for an AppImage)
Avoid Snap. Don't use it unless Mark Shuttleworth has a gun to your head.

Trying to startx on QEMU but keep getting this

xauth: (argv):1 bad display name "gentoovm:0" in "remove" command

any ideas?

>>103106633
Add gentoovm to /etc/hosts it looks like it's trying to connect over the network instead of using a UNIX socket as is typical. Not sure why it's doing that.

>>103106614
Is your life really worth living if you have to use snaps? I'd just tell him to pull the trigger.

>>103106644
Seems to have worked. No clue why either.
Now it's just closing instantly after startx, but I should be able to find a solution.
Thanks!

>>103106614
>>103106665
Between AppImage and Flatpak, Flatpak is the one that has sandboxing, right?
That would be very much appreciated, but is it not as "future-proof" as AppImage?

Can someone explain Dash to me? Is it like a backend for bash? How do I switch to it properly?

it's a different shell that only comes with the bare minimum, you probably don't wanna use it if you have bash

both are futureproof

>Yeah, but the flash itself is just as fast as in 1999 lmao. Why do they even make that shit as USB3?
Flash storage is really fast now. USB drives are made to the shittiest specifications though and with poor cooling, etc. They're designed to be cheap because nobody wants to buy an expensive USB drive. They make all of their money on volume.

You could have a USB type C drive with insane read and write speeds and it'd probably thermal throttle like crazy.

How come dash is fast? Does it not make sense to add bash features in dash then?

It's a POSIX shell. Dash is primarily concerned with portability as well as speed. It's a sanity check. If your script runs with dash it'll probably run with anything.

>>103110362

Because the speed of a dumb interpreter is directly proportionate to the number of key words it has to scan for. dash has the exact minimum required for POSIX compliance.

I don't know for sure, but my understanding is that you need to parse whatever document down to a JSON file with some basic formatting before you can use it as as input file. It's meant more for use in other apps/scripts than for normal usage.
For one-off conversions it's easier to convert PDF/EPUB to plain text with Calibre and then import/export the plain text file in Speech Note.

Would it be possible to compile a program stored fully in ram? For example in Gentoo where you compile all your programs locally, you could download the files to ram and automatically compile without using any storage space until the binary is made.
I don't compile my own things but I was thinking about it and it just can't be healthy to an SSD to keep writing stuff you're not going to use.

>>103113315
Sure, just do everything in tmpfs/zram.

>>103113315
Zram works well if you have plenty of RAM:

/etc/conf.d/zram-init:

# swap - 500M (or a fourth of available memory if uncommenting)
type0=swap
flag0= # The default "16383" is fine for us
#size0=512
size0=`LC_ALL=C free -m | awk '/^Mem:/{print int($2/4)}'`
mlim0= # no hard memory limit
back0= # no backup device
icmp0= # no incompressible page writing to backup device
idle0= # no idle page writing to backup device
wlim0= # no writeback_limit for idle page writing for backup device
notr0= # keep the default on linux-3.15 or newer
maxs0=1 # maximum number of parallel processes for this device
algo0=zstd # zstd (since linux-4.18), lz4 (since linux-3.15), or lzo.
           # Size: zstd (best) > lzo > lz4. Speed: lz4 (best) > zstd > lzo
labl0=zram_swap # the label name
uuid0= # Do not force UUID
args0= # we could e.g. have set args0="-L 'zram_swap'" instead of using labl0

type1=/var/tmp/portage
flag1=btrfs
size1=46080
algo1=zstd
labl1=var_tmp_portage_dir

That gives me 25% of my RAM for Swap and a BTRFS volume 46 GB for Portage

No distro is 10/10. t. Arch user for over a decade.
Endeavour is essentially Arch with an installer, so rating it lower than Arch doesn't even make sense. It is true that Manjaro is terrible though.
Gentoo is a good distro, it's just not for everyone.
Nobody cares about Peppermint.
RHEL is only 1/10 if you're still butthurt about the CentOS thing. Rocky is a decent server distro, despite its varying Red Hat niggles.
Easily the most embarrassing take, however, is rating Ubuntu higher than Mint, which is literally just better Ubuntu.

Are the only people that use Arch left using the baby's first installer or Manjaro? It used to be the sort of people that like Arch similarly like Gentoo (even if you still prefer one over the other)

>>103117786
>It used to be the sort of people that like Arch similarly like Gentoo
that's a /g/ meme, arch and gentoo have always had radically different philosophies. gentoo is designed to be as flexible as possible, arch is extremely opinionated.

>>103117959
Arch is also very flexible though. It's much harder to bend it to your will than Gentoo (if your opinion differs from the Arch maintainers then you should probably just use Gentoo) but still easy enough to modify PKGBUILDs and build a custom system.

Often a lot of Gentoo users come from Arch, at least that was the case for me. You use Arch until your customising too many things and Gentoo just becomes a better fit for you.

>>103117614

>Gentoo
>distribution
>>103118027
Yeah well, Arch actually distributes packages while Gentoo provides a development platform for building binaries.

>>103118027
well yeah it does have ABS and all that. but it still provides one or maybe two official ways to do things, as opposed to gentoo where user choice is a MUCH greater priority, i.e. they provide official systemd support despite being famous for openrc. arch's mentality is that what's easy and simple for the maintainers is easy and simple for users, which for desktop users is usually true.
when people gush about how much freedom arch has they are usually coming from a distro like debian which has a lot more of a "fuck you, we do things this way" attitude

I just installed fedora on a vm a bit ago. Thought i would give it more thorogh investigation after 15 years of apt and pacman.

Having to relearn "apt" is the smallest of your troubles. Fedora Linux is an alien world with all SElinux and other weirdnesses.

We need to take back containerization from google's grip. Containers have become important part of large systems but it is under google's claws because of go and docker. Dockers are just wrappers around linux namespaces and windows equivalents. This has to change. I know no project is doing this but someone has to do.

you could also set up distcc to offload compiling to a networked machine. though this makes more sense if you already have a better computer running gentoo

gentoo is a distribution, just because it primarily distributes packages as source code doesn't make them something other than packages

I'm not here to sell you anything. Just pointing out that the "Debian/Arch = Best, Red Hat = Bad/Evil" is a nothing but a meme, perpetuated by those who want to appeal to the majority (of Mongolian basket-weavers') opinion. It doesn't matter that Debian is a retard held together by tape and it doesn't matter that RHEL is about as solid a distro as can be. None of the actual distro properties matter. Debian is 10, RHEL is 1. Why? Because that's what people expect to hear, I don't need to explain shit.

>>103117838
See? This shit right here is exactly what I mean. Put a 10 next to Debian and Arch and you've created an excited gaping mouth sojak printing press. So fucking predictable. So meaningless.

why wouldn't it? you give your system this file, and you end up with installed software, since when was being binary a requirement of a package?
i could understand if you're talking about source tarballs that are just the source code of a program, but these have all the metadata necessary to install said software in a distro, that's what makes it a package

For desktop usage, it won't happen much because most desktop software isn't confined in the first place but for server software you simply have to do something that the Fedora/Red Hat engineer didn't consider adding to the policy or deemed to risky and you'll trigger a violation just like that.

On my Gentoo system I use AppArmor instead because it has much better tooling in my experience but obviously you should use what your distribution supports (that means SE Linux if you're running Fedora).

Live iso usb persistence doesnt really work out that well in the first place, you cant update the kernel or any of the other packages on the iso without having to reflash and repackage the whole iso.

I've been doing some VMs with qemu.
I've noticed this.
When booting Linux vm, the memory usage of the host is slightly over the reported ram inside the guest machine, which is expected.
The issue is when opening several applications and closing them that ram isn't released to the host.
Is this normal behavior?
Second, when booting windows OS inside vm, the vm uses the whole allocated memory, regardless of what's running, even after installing virtio balloon drivers.
Any idea?

>>103124190
That's down to the way the OS in VM handles memory. But most OSes in general keep things cached in RAM until the space is needed by something else.

That's your fault for not pinning the kernel package or using an LTS kernel. You should really avoid running mainline kernels with ZFS.

>>103125956
that's fair, even though I did pin the kernel package. but my point still stands about stability and not wanting things to change too much. show me a fedora with purely LTS packages and I'll gladly check it out

then no

>>103125974
It's called CentOS, although maybe Stream is still too unstable for you in which case use one of the RHEL clones like Alma.

The whole point of Fedora is that it's cutting edge. It has the best hardware and software compatibility and all the latest and greatest features. Compatibility with the third-party filesystems that don't care enough to keep up with the changes going on in mainline Linux is not a goal.

>If im setting up zram, do i still need a physical swapfile
Why do you need any swap at all? If the answer is "to keep it from freezing", you need an OOM killer. Swap in that case is possibly nice to have but not necessary.
>What's the recommended size for zram?
50% for lz4, 100% for zstd. You can go lower if you want to limit the max performance impact.
>does zram and hugepages have any weird bad interaction
They don't interact at all. hugepages can't be swapped.

>>103126702
>Why do you need any swap at all?
Memory reclamation. It's not needed to "keep things from freezing", swapping in the case that you're running out of memory is generally undesired, that's what the OOM killer is for (ideally running in userspace). If you swap in that scenario then you end up thrashing and the pressure stall metrics go up because the memory usage isn't decreasing and the swapped out memory can never be reclaimed.

Everyone should read this if they're ever in doubt about what swap's for:

How do I run Solidworks on this thing?

is there any way to set different max volumes for speakers and an audio jack (i.e. headphones)?
standard 0-100 is fine enough on laptop speakers but tinnitus inducing on headphones
im running pipewire-pulse on arch

Do you use a cracked version, or a Maker license?

>>103129232
crack, i used it back in 2022, but it was pretty wonky sometimes so i switched to foss alternatives, it is probably better now though

ventoy is very shady, i wouldnt use it if i were you

>>103129504
IMO people turned on Ventoy because of the chinese mole that long game hacked xz-utils, and because Ventoy's main dev is chinese they did the same thing. I still does exactly what it says it does, not like it injects viruses or something into your installs or some shit like what some people think for outlandish reasons.

Lol, who are you?

>>103129494
its just a daemon backend, you need something to interact with it, the most basic cli one is mpc
its not a highly complicated server and frontend, its just a daemon for playing music that you're supposed to remote control through its api and port/socket
its not mpd's fault that your frontend sucks, when theres a billion of them to choose from

Are you going to post that same github issue, where the people who are complaining about it have no idea what they're talking about?
Their whole argument stands on three prebuilt binaries only used for disk encryption, you can literally not use them and build your own, they have build instructions for them
Every single one of these tech illiterate retards complaining about ventoy being a backdoor have zero idea what they're talking about
How the fuck is ventoy supposed to be a backdoor when its nothing more than grub + a few basic unix tools? To even do a backdoor like this with the tools ventoy has available, you would need a mini kernel loaded with tools that can inject a payload into the iso itself after extracting it, and needs to make sure that payload is added to the installer, and every installer is not the same. You can't backdoor someone who does a pacstrap /mnt base, debootstrap, or manual tar extract. You would also have to be able to know which disk is the right one to inject the payload into if you're not going to do it in the installer.

then why are you complaining about a program that you dont use?

you are aware that's how every other music player does it, yes? the only difference is that its built into the program itself, how do you think your media keys just magically work with your favorite music player while its sitting in the background?

>the only difference
you're trying really hard to make it sound like it's a tiny difference. if MPV required me to install and configure a separate daemon to access my music and movies i wouldn't use that shit either. if MPV was just a frontend that displayed some buttons and made API calls i would not use that shit. i am fully aware of how music players work. you're not gonna win me over by explaining shit i already know.

Is it fine to put all my SSDs into a RAID0 profile with btrfs?
I don't care about the safety of my data, I just want a single partition to store all my files on. The use case is a game library in the /home/<user> directory, which can be easily reinstalled from the internet, thus no data integrity necessary.
I store all my valuable data on other systems, so that's not a concern.
I just don't want to deal with having to manage multiple devices and their mountpoints, so the idea of just bundling all my internal disks into one btrfs filesystem and dumping everything on that sounds too good to be true. There has to be a catch, no? Or is it really just that easy?

>>103130012
I'm pretty sure you don't need a raid for that. lvm should be able to do it. btrfs maybe on its own as well.
Not speaking from experience though.

>>103130012
>There has to be a catch, no?
The catch is obviously that if one of your drives fail, the whole raid can fall apart and you can lose all your data.
But if you dont care about that, then it doesnt really matter. It just depends on how much time you want to spend replacing drives and reinstalling files.

>>103126442
How do you get into this point even?

You're just parroting what others say.
I tested this myself, other than the closed blob.
Everything is safe, my guess is the closed source stuff are actually taken from MS and and disclosures on them would kill the repo.

I figured out the reason, it was all the snap packages and their dependencies. /var/lib/snapd/snaps was around 12gb in size.

>>103130975
Your distro is being retarded. Mount it from the terminal.

>>103131001
doesn't work either, I tried it too, it is why I am here. I will format it as exFAT and see if I can update my console.

Oh, great. Guess I have to re-build Rust for no reason now:

/var/db/repos/gentoo/profiles/package.mask:
# Matt Jolly < > (2024-11-09)
# The legacy Rust ebuilds are no longer maintained and have been
# replaced by the new slotted Rust. Removal in 30 days.

- dev-lang/rust-1.82.0::gentoo (masked by: package.mask)

>>103131871
Thoughts on this? The US government wants companies to adopt Rust instead of using C/C++ for security reasons.
>the US Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Agency (CISA) urged... MSLs [memory safe languages]
https://www.theregister.com/2023/12/07/memory_correction_five_eyes/

(Article is from last year but I was reading about it today)

New thread:
>>103132108

>>103131871
What does this even mean? What is the "new slotted Rust"? Do I have to emerge a different package now?

>>103132139
It's to make versioning easier in the ebuilds. I understand why they're doing it. Still annoying though.

This is for package maintainers not you.

>>103132204
>>103132139
The package is still the same by the way, you just might have to

emerge -Ca virtual/rust dev-lang/rust dev-lang/rust-bin

and then install the new slotted version by the same name.

>>103132204
>>103132237
Also being slotted means it should be possible to have multiple different versions of the Rust compiler installed now so that's nice. I used to use Rust-bin if I needed a different version for something.

>>103132277
>>103132237
>>103132204
Thank you. Do I see correctly that virtual/rust will essentially stop existing? I would then just emerge --oneshot dev-lang/rust and do a world upgrade and things should be fine?

>>103132288
It might stop existing or it'll exist as a slotted virtual that depends on dev-lang/rust:SLOT or dev-lang/rust-bin:SLOT

I don't know what they're going to do about it.
