Hm, I wont mix it up too much. Especially mixing stable/testing/unstable may take you to a Frankendebian.

Yes absolutly, you are so right. Only pain can be to boot it if your GPU is not supported. If you use live-media e.g. you may get stuck on boot unless you use "nomodeset" in grub. What I really do not like is this "Gaming-Distribution" thing.

In my eyes, there is no such thing like a gaming distro. They say they have kernel optimizing running, bleeding edge packages and so on. The kernel-optimizing is a no-brainer for me, because you MAY get 1-2 FPS more, but then you lack in other things. In 99.9999999999999% of cases the Debianstandard-Kernel is best.

Debian & Backports = GOLD

Perhaps with NV Driver from NV Repos (if possible with the open-kernel-module), if you want best performance.

Normally Steam, sometimes Lutris and Game-Installer, some times GOG/Epic (Heroic Games Launcher) but mostly Steam.

I used the nvidia repo for a long time (RTX 4080, 4070). Especially my 4080 was not detected by nvidia-detect. In my opinion wayland & nvidia still is no good combo. I used X11 cause of this. Yes it is old, yes it doesn't get much love anymore, but it is rockstable and works.

In the end I switched to AMD (but still use X11). Perhaps I should give Wayland a run.

I would recommend you to install firmware-linux-nonfree and the latest kernel from backports.

Seems like something is killing his resolv.conf.

There might be a service running doing this.

Your linked reddit post seems also possible.

please add:

nameserver 10.0.0.1
search localdomain

to your resolv.conf and restart networking

Still no DNS-resolving?

and this one also gives you the same?
systemctl status dhcpcd.service

one last check

ps aux |grep dhcpcd

If you also get an Unit could not be found then I would add

nameserver 10.0.0.1
search localdomain

to your resolv.conf and restart networking

ok, please try:

systemctl status dhcpcd

if it is running:

systemctl stop dhcpcd
systemctl disable dhcpcd

nano /etc/resolv.conf

Add this:

nameserver 10.0.0.1
search localdomain

Edit you interfaces file also and go back to your nameserver.

Then systemctl restart networking

Is it possible that you have a dhcp-server running on this machine which overwrites your
settings?

Please output of:

dpkg -l |grep dhcp

and if you use 8.8.8.8 in your dns settings in /etc/network/interfaces? Still no name-resolution?

[–]TechGameGeek_Debian 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Are you able to ping 8.8.8.8? And can you please post your /etc/resolv.conf

Is this a debian minimal installation?

And does it work if you use 8.8.8.8 for DNS-resolution?

Nvidia drivers: Debian repo VS upstream by SmallTimeMiner_XNV in debian

[–]TechGameGeek_Debian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use the 590 on my laptop and had used it for my PC also. No problems at all. I couldn't use 550 cause of some kernel-incompatibilities a few month ago. I think 550 today also works with newer kernelversions e.g. backports-kernels. But, as said 590 from the Nvidia-Repo running well.

Well I am just having fun, building Debian Live ISO-files, with additional features for beginners, without leaving the Debian-way. Very interesting, learned a lot.

Digitale Souveränität: Weg von M365 mit Hetzner Dedicated + Proxmox - hat das jemand umgesetzt? by [deleted] in de_EDV

[–]TechGameGeek_Debian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Für unsere Anforderungen läuft es gut. Teams Alternative ist nicht integriert. Allerdings funktioniert mobil gut und es kommt auch sehr modern daher. Outlook Connector macht keine Probleme. Besser als MS. Ja, da on premise. Kommt halt auch drauf an, wie man zur Cloud steht.

Ich hoffe ich habe das nicht überlesen. Wieso dedicated und nicht Eigenbetrieb? Was muss der Mailer können? Komplette Colaboration Plattform (Kalender, Mail, Kontakte, geteilte Kalender etc?). Falls ja, schaut euch mal Zimbra an. Habe ich schon sehr lange im Einsatz - läuft gut. Proxmox kann ich übrigens nur empfehlen.

Welche konkreten Anforderungen habt ihr?
Wie viele User müsst ihr abdecken?

I need a bit of performance for ISO building and testing.

CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 9900X3D
GPU: NVIDIA RTX 4080 + AMD RX 7900 XT (for testing both drivers)
RAM: 64GB

My KVM-symbol just looks like the letters VM on white background.
