posix sh + awk for manipulating data?
It makes me mad to see the current state sway is in, I even bought an AMD GPU for nothing.
Test adding the preferences page to “excluded URLs” in the settings of vimium.
I really don’t know lol
Increasing the max_map_count is needed for some Steam games, iirc Arch is now dong this by default.
iirc the dirty_bytes settings prevent the system from hanging if there is too much disk IO
And setting transparent_hugepages to madvise was something I did when archlinux had this bug in the kernel: https://old.reddit.com/r/archlinux/comments/1atueo0/higher_ram_usage_since_kernel_67_and_the_solution/
It was eventually fixed but I later ran into the issue again and I decided to keep it on madvise.
Here is what I ended up using for my sysctl conf, iirc I got some of these from popos default config:
vm.swappiness = 180
vm.page-cluster = 0
vm.watermark_boost_factor = 0
vm.watermark_scale_factor = 125
vm.dirty_bytes = 268435456
vm.dirty_background_bytes = 134217728
vm.max_map_count = 2147483642
vm.dirtytime_expire_seconds = 1800
vm.transparent_hugepages = madvise
nvm I just noticed that the issue is that I had the gcompat package installed in alpine, which fixes that issue you just had, I don’t know if chimera has something similar to it.
That’s interesting that it doesn’t work, iirc the biggest difference of chimera is that it uses musl like alpine does.
Can you extract the appimage with --appimage-extract
flag and run the AppRun that’s inside of it directly? Or that also fails?
Isn’t lite-xl in your distro repo?
Manjaro: Lots of criticism from others, ironically ran 2 years without major issues. But I wanted to switch to btrfs and EOS was hyped up to be a better version of a simple Arch installation.
I had a similar story, in fact EOS has a problem that they use dracut by default and is set to overwrite the kernel parameters every time you update the system lol.
I’m very sorry you had to deal with some users from here btw, specially the nixos people.
You likely saw this already, but if you haven’t: https://www.reddit.com/r/Fedora/comments/mzun99/new_zram_tuning_benchmarks/
I use lite-xl, it has been very good, but I’m not a Go developer though.
They also release an appimage and I just did a quick test on a alpine container and it works, so it should work on Chimera as well.
would you suggest XDG or creating Symlinks?
You can do both, and both are easy.
The user-dirs.dirs
file contains something like this:
XDG_DESKTOP_DIR="$HOME/Desktop"
XDG_DOCUMENTS_DIR="$HOME/Documents"
XDG_DOWNLOAD_DIR="$HOME/Downloads"
XDG_MUSIC_DIR="$HOME/Music"
XDG_PICTURES_DIR="$HOME/Pictures"
XDG_PUBLICSHARE_DIR="$HOME/Public"
XDG_TEMPLATES_DIR="$HOME/Templates"
XDG_VIDEOS_DIR="$HOME/Videos"
For example if you mount the disk in /media/dirname
, it would be something like this, I’m giving it a external-drive
name in this example:
XDG_DESKTOP_DIR="/media/external-drive/Desktop"
XDG_DOCUMENTS_DIR="/media/external-drive/Documents"
XDG_DOWNLOAD_DIR="/media/external-drive/Downloads"
XDG_MUSIC_DIR="/media/external-drive/Music"
XDG_PICTURES_DIR="/media/external-drive/Pictures"
XDG_PUBLICSHARE_DIR="/media/external-drive/Public"
XDG_TEMPLATES_DIR="/media/external-drive/Templates"
XDG_VIDEOS_DIR="/media/external-drive/Videos"
And for the symlinks, if the drive already has the Desktop
, Documents
, etc directories. It is as simple as this:
ln -s /media/external-drive/* $HOME
That will symlink all the files in the drive to your $HOME
I suggest you do both because you might run into a program that doesn’t follow XDG user directories.
If you want my answer, this video sums it up pretty good: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x9qCqRTEVz0
More recently fedora pulled this move which causes headaches to everyone: https://gitlab.com/gnuwget/wget2/-/issues/661
To this day I notice that there is some skepticism with Btrfs, and I think it is because fedora also pushed it early.
Btrfs snapshots made me stop using ext4 all together.
Folders? you mean directories 👀
Mount the disk (if you ask me at /media/nameofdir
) and configure ${XDG_CONFIG_HOME:-~/.config}/user-dirs.dirs
(99% of that time that would be the .config dir in your home lol) and define each XDG_***_DIR=
to the respective directory in the path of the mounted disk, no need to make symlinks, though you might need to because there is likely many apps that don’t follow xdg specs.
I would really appreciate a GUI way
I know gnome-disks has a GUI way to change the mount options, I don’t know how good it is though.
Introducing openSUSA
Very interesting tool. So this is for appimages but also binaries?
Anything portable.
Thats not a sandbox, its a nice wrapper for firejail,
aisap uses bwrap it is mentioned in both links I gave you.
appman used to have firejail sandbox but it was dropped in favor of aisap because of that.
I’m pretty sure
sbin
originally meant static binaries and not system binaries lol
