Use a single gpu for wine and vm pcie pass-through
  • If you mean this manager it's a tool to create the initial vfio configuration for the passthrough. You can do it by hand.

  • Use a single gpu for wine and vm pcie pass-through

    Hi!

    It's just an idea to make dualboot superfluous.

    Is it possible to do that:

    • Run Wayland on the integrated gpu (igpu).
    • Run Wine/Proton on the discreet gpu (dgpu) and play games.
    • If you don't want to run wine, run (manually) a script that detaches the dgpu from the linux system and free it for vm pass-through usage.
    • Run Windows in a vm with the dgpu and play games.
    • Still have the option to switch on the fly to the linux system because it runs independently on the igpu. Both dgpu and igpu need to be connected separately to your monitor for that to work. Might need a KVM switch to well... switch mouse, keyboard and active display between linux and vm.
    • If you shutdown the vm run (manually) a script to detach the dgpu from vm pass-through and reattach it to the linux system for wine use.

    In theory it should work but I read about errors on some AMD gpus (RX 5000 series? can't remember) that needed a system reboot every time you reattach them to the linux system again. I don't know if that bug still exists on more modern AMD gpus (RX 6000 & 7000 series)

    What do you think? Is it possible? Are there showstoppers I'm unaware of?

  • You can try one of the phones that are supported by Ubuntu Touch. I don't know how good it runs but there are several cheap (= old) phones on the list.

  • Videogame fantasy settings are staler than mouldy bread right now
  • It's so weird that elves are now the good guys. They were actually dream spirits that give you nightmares (engl. nightmare ≫ german Alptraum = elf dream). And no, they weren't described having otherworldly beauty.

    It's also believed that nordic elves and dwarfs are the same beings in the Edda. The nordic word for elf is álfr which often is part of dwarf names.

  • The gem one is cute and allegedly 1 cm smoller than Gura. She reminds me of Pikamee. 🥰 I'll try to live watch her debut.

    The dogs seems to be the chaotical ones. 🤪

    Not sure about the two goths... One of them looks like Kronii. 🤔

  • Good singleplayer games without any story?
  • Earth Defence Force 5

    There's mostly only some really funny voice over during the missions. EDF6 is already there but the developer always takes his time to translate the game into English.

  • What Filesystem?
  • It's still quite a lot. Samsung is the inventor of F2FS and has a market share of 33%.

  • What Filesystem?
  • Wiki says:

    Motorola Mobility has used F2FS in their Moto G/E/X and Droid phones since 2012. Google first used F2FS in their Nexus 9 in 2014. However Google's other products didn't adopt F2FS until the Pixel 3 when F2FS was updated with inline crypto hardware support.

    Huawei has used F2FS since the Huawei P9 in 2016. OnePlus has used F2FS in the OnePlus 3T. ZTE has used F2FS since the ZTE Axon 10 Pro in 2019.

    I assume since Google is involved that more and more Android phones will adopt F2FS in the future.

  • What Filesystem?
  • I'm pretty sure default Android runs almost always on F2FS.

  • What Filesystem?
  • Unfortunately it's not future proof. Max filesystem size is only 16 TB.

  • What Filesystem?
  • ext4 maxes out at a few tb

    Max filesystem size is 1 EiB = 1048576 TiB.

    More than enough!

  • It's more important to backup your /home than /. /home is where you store your crucial files.

  • RHEL uses XFS as default.

  • https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transaction_authentication_number#ChipTAN_/_Sm@rt-TAN_/_CardTAN

    It's a 2FA using your online login (1st factor) and an one time password generator (2nd factor) to authorize money transactions.

    The USB is needed to power the generator and has no data transfer option.

  • What Filesystem?
  • At the end of the day though after all of our storage tests conducted on Clear Linux, EXT4 came out to being just 2% faster than F2FS for this particular Intel Xeon Gold 5218 server paired with a Micron 9300 4TB NVMe solid-state drive source

    I'll suggest XFS.

    • Aegis for 2FA
    • always use 2FA where possible
    • good old USB TAN generator for online banking
    • never ever do online banking on my phone
    • degoogled phone
    • no facebook, insta, whatsapp etc. Signal and Liftoff are enough.

    I'm planning to completeley switch to Linux on my computer. I'm also waiting for the Fairphone 5 and will install Ubuntu Touch on it when it will become available.

  • Langfristig geht das, kein Thema.

    Viele hier wollen das aber quasi über Nacht, realisieren aber nicht, dass das so schnell nicht geht. Oder dass diese Schnelligkeit mehr Probleme erzeugt, als sie löst.

    Das kann alles nur funktionieren, wenn man gleichzeitig sicherstellt, dass ÖPNV attraktiv bleibt. Attraktivität definiert sich nicht nur über den Preis. Dazu gehört genauso ausreichender Fahrzeugbestand, ausgebildetes Personal und gute Infrastruktur sowie guter Service (Sauberkeit, Sicherheit, Streckenangebot, etc.). Das sind Sachen, für die man Jahre braucht.

  • Why is the cutscene/FMV problem in Linux gaming so difficult to fix?
  • As I wrote the codecs were usually included in the game. No sane developer assumed that they are already installed in the system.

    Now how do you get a game to not use the codec it's shipped with? By cracking.

  • [Feature request] Highlight user comments, posts and mentions

    As the title said I'd like to have some sort of visual indication which comments and posts are made by me or mention me.

    Yes I can look for my user name but that's not convenient. Maybe coloring the right border of my post in the current primary color is a good way to do that.

    Best RAM for AMD 7800X3D?

    I'm going to build a new gaming rig and am not sure which RAM to buy. I do want the best RAM available but I won't overclock it. Afaik the CPU will work best at DDR5-6000 and won't profit much from higher frequencies.

    A lot of people recommend the G.Skill Ripjaws. I found these two: DDR5-6400, CL32-39-39-102 DDR5-6800, CL34-46-46-108

    Those are kits but I'll probably only buy one module. 48 GB are enough for the next few years.

    If I let them run at 6000 which one of them works best?

    Linux on Android

    I'm currently messing around with Termux and trying to install Linux through AnLinux, Andronix and UserLAnd just for fun.

    I have mixed success in AnLinux. I successfully installed and started Lubuntu but it was running pretty slowly. I wasn't able to replicate the install a while later. Also I totally failed to get ArchLinux running.

    Now I'm trying Andronix. Wish me luck!

    Do you have any experience running a Linux on your mobile?

    What's your opinion on Apple's googles?

    It does nothing new but seems to be very polished. I'm not sure it's worth 3.5k $.
