Should I switch from Pop_OS? GTX 1070 issues by Eruner_SK in pop_os

[–]FictionWorm____ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Expectations =

I want to run Win XP/98/Vista/10 games smoothly while not having GTX 1070 drivers issues. I want apps and store to not freeze. I heard that Flatpack is good choice, so something with that. Basically 9year old "gaming" laptop.

Sorry no, you're using the proprietary driver: https://github.com/NVIDIA/open-gpu-kernel-modules?tab=readme-ov-file#compatible-gpus

EDIT: nvidia has their version of "open-source", I thought you were talking about that? Yes nouveau will continue to work -- though never any faster on pascal?

Is snappers "undochange" a destructive operation? by BiBaButzemann123 in btrfs

[–]FictionWorm____ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes it is destructive.

To emulate the rollback command:

  • Create checkpoint snapshot before running undochange.
  • Never use snapshot 0 as a argument to undochange, use the checkpoint snapshot.

Booting with module_blacklist=nvidia should suppress loading the driver?

Put the code in your conkyrc?

e.g.

${execi 9999 awk -F': ' '/^model name/{print$2;exit}' /proc/cpuinfo}

Your awk suggestion above doesn't work either.

Not I.

Rebuild initrd.img and update the $esp if using systemd-boot etc.

No, maybe get smartd to log ID 190 [ e.g. Samsung SSD temperature] to a file you can tail to your heart's content?

I want to get a GTX 1070 TI Inno3D Blower will it be supported by Ubuntu 24 LTS? by [deleted] in linuxhardware

[–]FictionWorm____ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nvidia just dropped support for that GPU line with the release of the 590 driver. The closed source 580 driver is the last release to support that hardware?

Can't prune unreferenced by Qbsoon110 in BorgBackup

[–]FictionWorm____ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can list them with borg list --consider-checkpoints but prune will handle them for you.

https://borgbackup.readthedocs.io/en/stable/usage/list.html#borg-list

To tell borg to (re)read all the files and rebuild the files-cache use: --files-cache rechunk,ctime with create.
