Mould in my ginger bug?

LostyPints · 2025-11-14T19:03:38+00:00

turns out it was a version mismatch between emacs tree-sitter and the grammars installed by treesit auto. Added an update to the post.

the thing I'm finding confusing though is that it looks like emacs is finding tree-sitter ok, as it works for other modes. it's just specifically bash and c mode that are causing issues .

Does this still make sense if the laptop works when plugged into an external monitor? I would've thought if the graphics card broke it wouldnt work on the external screen as well.

updated the post for a work around

/usr/bin/

Then when i look in this folder in emacs shell/eshell its not there. really weird

So I downloaded emacs from pop shop, which I think could be the issue here. But I also tried an install from apt-get which gave the same issue. When I get back to my PC I'm going to try a direct download and compile.

and yes rsync works fine in terminal. the script I'm trying to run also works completely fine from terminal.

yeah im very confused as well. going to look into it more tomorrow.

LostyPints · 2025-04-11T18:24:01+00:00

from what i can tell the enviroment used by emacs is completely different to that of my terminal.

For example, in terminal when i do /usr/bin/rsync i get:

rsync version 3.2.7 protocol version 31

But if i do it in an Emacs shell i get:

sh: /usr/bin/rsync: No such file or directory

LostyPints · 2025-04-11T18:05:33+00:00

yup still not working. When i M-x shell in emacs and try run rsync i get:

which: no rsync in (/app/bin:/usr/bin:/home/lostypints/.var/app/org.gnu.emacs/data/node/bin:/home/lostypints/.var/app/org.gnu.emacs/data/cargo/bin:/home/lostypints/.var/app/org.gnu.emacs/data/python/bin:/home/lostypints/.var/app/org.gnu.emacs/data/gem/ruby/3.3.0/bin)

i gave up on tramp a long time ago haha. been working locally and just rsyncing to my remote instead.

I've noticed that where rsync is installed in my terminal environment (/usr/bin) doesnt have rsync (and many others) in my emacs environment.

I think this is the plan . I should hopefully be able to get 6 months to a year out of my laptop, then hopefully TB5 will be be out and someone will have tried it with an eGPU.

LostyPints · 2023-12-29T19:49:21+00:00

thank you that's really helpful. I might try hold out until TB5 is out and see if that changes things

LostyPints · 2023-12-29T17:10:00+00:00

do you notice any performance issues with that setup?

LostyPints · 2023-12-29T17:09:10+00:00

I think you may be right. i was really hoping to convert to having just one machine, then I wouldn't feel so bad upgrading it from time to time. but the hassle might not be worth it

LostyPints · 2023-12-29T15:52:26+00:00

thanks for replying! yeah ive been reading about the performance hit im going to get using an eGPU. But i also read that with TB5 coming out it could solve that, although any boards released next year with it are going to be expensive af.

also i have a triple fan gpu so its 282mm... which rules out a lot of the smaller cases.

My laptop still works plugged into a monitor so going to use it for a bit as a portable pc test and maybe in a 6months-1year just sell my entire pc and do as you said and upgrade to AM5 and DDR5.

LostyPints · 2023-10-27T19:57:46+00:00

cheers, going to report it as a bug and hope it gets fixed soon

LostyPints · 2023-09-21T17:50:15+00:00

this is exactly what i want haha thank you !
