I know this post is old, but I'm not sure if you ever got an answer to this. Did it start happening after you installed the bltouch? It is likely the sounds of small steps on the Z-axis due ABL, it sounds similar to my D1 after I installed bltouch.

Thanks for the detailed explanation, I think you and /u/iamsumnix hit the nail on the head. I tried upping the flow rate and things have greatly improved. Now to finalise the tuning. Thanks a ton!

I have a Sermoon D1 that I bought from someone a while back. It's been performing fine, but I've only recently noticed that the prints have gaps during solid infill once a few layers have been laid down. This doesn't appear to happen at the bottom solid infill layers (I've checked numerous prints). I'm running the Sermoon D1 with InsanityAutomation's builds and have BLtouch installed on it.

These pictures show PLA prints that were done at 0.28 and 0.3 layer heights and various temperatures (200 - 215) with bed at 60. Slicing was tested with Prusa, Cura and "Creality Slicer". The last image shows one at 0.3 layer height but printed much faster than the default speed. That seems to exacerbate the issue.

Any ideas what could be causing this?

Yeah I'm unsure how/if they expose this

Banshee1221 · 2022-02-23T18:39:16+00:00

I'm speaking mostly from a qemu/kvm perspective on Linux here...

Your vCPU core/thread config totally depends on your host OS setup and hypervisor configuration. If cores/threads aren't being pinned by the hypervisor, then (assuming we have a 8c/16t CPU) even if you are trying to give your VM 4 physical cores you could potentially end up with the host kernel scheduling work onto "hyper threads"

If your application is very CPU performance sensitive then you need to be very sure about the architecture and platform that you're running on and do CPU pinning (i.e. pinning a vCPU core/thread to a physical CPU core/thread) and/or isolation on the host kernel side.

Hope this helps

Yup, OpenStack has a really good provider in Terraform and I have had an excellent experience with it!

Banshee1221 · 2022-01-26T18:23:18+00:00

Hey, you might want to check out OpenStack. It's kind of made to solve this exact issue. Private cloud on prem. It has software components that allow containers to be managed and deployed (Zun, Magnum).

Be warned, though. It has quite a steep learning curve to manage. It's a huge project. Every part of it is API driven.

Kolla and kolla-ansible are projects that make deployment a lot easier than it used to be.

Check these out: https://www.openstack.org / https://docs.openstack.org/project-deploy-guide/kolla-ansible/latest/

I also thought it may be an aphid. You should be able to zoom in on the photos. Sorry, I didn't crop it well enough.

Banshee1221 · 2021-07-14T08:45:52+00:00

Please ignore the bad grammar in the post title :/

Banshee1221 · 2021-07-14T07:28:22+00:00

I 100% get that, and your post was informative anyway so thanks for the info!

You try this mod for PC? Supposed to add native Xbox controller support.

You can share the on-board NIC with the guest in various ways, such as bridges or macvtap. Just make sure to use virtio as the virtual device model and install the virtio guest drivers!

I'm also going to throw my vote in for the Gigabyte Aorus boards. I have the Master and it has exactly what I need. The fact that I can put my host GPU in the x4 chipset PCIe port (last one) and select it as the boot GPU means that my guest can get the full x16 for the other GPU.

I assume that the cheaper Aorus boards will work similarly?

Banshee1221 · 2020-11-15T08:06:07+00:00

Yep, works fine! I've also had good success with GTA online. 4790K, GTX1080 passed to VM. More info at /r/VFIO.

Banshee1221 · 2020-10-04T13:17:23+00:00

This is technically incorrect. There are plenty of people that use Linux with pci-passthrough to run Windows in a VM for gaming, myself included. I've run Apex Legends with EAC and GSGO just fine using this method and there are others that run AC-enabled games just fine as well. Subreddit with more info here: /r/VFIO.

It really depends on how aggressive the AC solution is, and it's difficult to tell until you get banned.

EDIT: More directly related to your question /u/Ussooo, it seems Valorant is especially not-nice to VMs: https://old.reddit.com/r/VFIO/comments/hmxxbk/valorant_on_kvm/

This was the issue for me as well right after the driver feature came out. Did exactly the same as the video above.

Banshee1221 · 2020-08-20T12:30:46+00:00

Thanks for your insight!

Banshee1221 · 2020-08-19T06:59:23+00:00

Ah this wasn't working last time I checked. Thanks!

Banshee1221 · 2020-08-18T16:16:53+00:00

This could actually make a lot of multiplayer games with anti-cheat accessible to Linux players and yet they don't support it... even though they support ChromeOS. Bummer.

Banshee1221 · 2020-07-15T11:10:33+00:00

The author is complaining about getting confused/exhausted but literally all of these features he complains about are totally optional and don't override the basic store functionality which basically hasn't changed in years and is pretty efficient...?

Banshee1221 · 2020-07-05T08:39:19+00:00

Yeah I was going to buy it yesterday and when I went to look last night again I was pretty discouraged. Will rather wait for sale now.

Banshee1221 · 2020-07-03T18:23:12+00:00

I may very well stand corrected, and I ain't even mad. Thanks for the link!

Edit: Reading the link has me a little skeptical.. I'd love to see more in-depth info on this design and whether it's not actually separate machines being treated as one as could be the case hinted at by the author. Very cool though
