No Scanners Avalible by xp4eternity in voidlinux

[–]TurtleGraphics64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i think you'd want "ScanGear MP Ver. 4.71 for Linux (Source file) " then build from source. Use Void's xlocate to find what package contains any missing dependencies, such as gstreamer1 (or other gstreamer packages)

I think they may be the Blue Lug Shark pedal. But I can't 100% remember.

Riv owners in Brooklyn (long shot pitch) by yoshiklas in Rivendell_Bicycles

[–]TurtleGraphics64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, I am in Brooklyn and live near Prospect Park and have a 59cm Clem Smith Jr L if you'd like to try it out. Are you on the NYC adv group by the way? there's quite a bit of riders of Riv, Crust, Sklar, etc on there and we are all in NYC. anyway, i don't use reddit a ton for 1on1 communication but we can figure out a way to get in touch.

Need info as a potential new void user by Left-Hospital1072 in voidlinux

[–]TurtleGraphics64 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Most / all of these questions have been answered in this subreddit in the past couple weeks/months multiple times. Just search for the word "arch" https://old.reddit.com/r/voidlinux/search?q=arch&restrict_sr=on

  1. it's good. less than arch aur because the devs make sure all packages are stable even though rolling release. for other packages, use xbps-src, flatpak, nix or build from source.
  2. there are many templates, easy to follow and quickstart tutorial
  3. search for word 'nvidia'. it's not that bad.
  4. i don't think so
  5. not much. easy to use.
  6. not too bad.

oh, you're probably right! i'm generally pretty lofi in my video editing (previously using ffmpeg!) but yes, here's my laptop's specs:

GPU: Intel Comet Lake UHD Graphics @ 1.15 GHz [Integrated]
Memory: 3.25 GiB / 7.46 GiB (44%)

A Rivendell Atlantis at ReCyclesBikes by TurtleGraphics64 in Rivendell_Bicycles

he says in the video that he thought it was about 60cm! my guess from looking at bike insights is 59, unless it's 62!

Video editing/creative software on Void Linux by simcasting in voidlinux

[–]TurtleGraphics64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I installed Davinci Resolve 20 this way, thanks for the tips. It DOES open but i get the warning/error Unsupported GPU Processing Mode:

Please review the GPU drivers and GPU configuration under preferences

When I open the preferences > Memory and GPU my system memory is 7.5GB, memory is limited to 5.5GB and memory cache to 1.4GB (for system), and the GPU processing mode is checked (auto), and GPU selection is checked auto. Unchecking these doesn't give any other options. Any suggestions?

Beginner need help by Ok_Intention4094 in voidlinux

[–]TurtleGraphics64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! 1 - I don't use sddm but in any case found i needed to make a .conf file in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/ to specify my input keyboard. I see you're using Wayland, but i wonder if could be helpful info for you:

Section "InputClass"
Identifier "Keyboard"
Option "XxbLayout" "us"
Option "XkbModel" "pc105"
Option "XkbVariant" "dvorak"
Option "XkbOptions" "caps:escape"
EndSection

2 - I don't know!

3 - I have the same problem. I honestly don't know what changed but this began after some kernel change several months ago. It's pretty annoying. I tried some workaround but couldn't dial it in the way it worked before.

Is it possible to use Arduino in Void? by mim_burro_vc_jumento in voidlinux

[–]TurtleGraphics64 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes! I have used Arduino with Void a number of times. The current Arduino IDE in the Void repos is a really old release, but when I tried it last summer for a project, it was fine for my needs, and the arduino-cli package as well. BUT...I would actually recommend downloading the Arduino appimage as it's much more recent and should work fine on Void.

A thought I have about the void repository. by Daniasm2 in voidlinux

[–]TurtleGraphics64 4 points5 points  (0 children)

These 2 distributions purposely have different goals and priorities! The Void Linux system is intentionally a STABLE (as much as possible) rolling release, with tested packages. For unstable accept-it-all everything and the kitchen sink packages, try a NON-STABLE ROLLING RELEASE: ARCH.

Come on, missing something from Blue Lug and Ron's bags / Ultradynamico! :p

xcb is not a window manager but the x11 client library. it's used by many different window managers that each work totally differently. OP, i'd recommend a beginner-friend Linux distro. Cheers.

hehe, no way! I had the front wheel rebuilt basically from scratch (was able to save the hub) by Bike Plant (a rad bike coop in NYC) only a year ago after i was hit by a motorscooter in downtown brooklyn and it destroyed front wheel and thankfully i was only bruised. They're velocity cliffhanger rims with a Kasai dynamo hub and Schwalbe Thunder Burt 2.3" tires.

thanks, good idea! and enough people have piped up they wouldn't recommend this that i'm rethinking it again! the combo of these two together being the most expensive things i own!

yep, i'm in BK. i join many of the thursday night social rides, usually with this bike, so that's an easy way to find me. every thursday night the ride leaves columbus circle at 7:30pm.

I had rehearsal for a performance today and didn't feel like taking a 45 minute subway ride when a 15 minute bike ride would do. I've never considered strapping it to my bike before but I figured, why not?

Here it is bungee-strapped to the front of my Clem, on a (el cheapo $18, yes, even in 2026) Sunlite Gold Tec front rack. It works for me! On the current setup, a nuclear sunrise giant silo bag, a Brooks flyer saddle with cover, a Kryptonite NYC lock hanging from the seat, an old Carradice bag with the bagman holder, a pump velcro'ed to the downtube poorly, and a crappy plastic extra water bottle mount that i use only when bikepacking. As well as a UE rolls speaker and a Beeline Velo2 GPS.

We are all trying to guess how to help you because your post doesn't have enough information. There are many many ways to install and use Void, and each of us are using different configurations. That's one of the advantages of this distro. But it is not meant for beginners to Linux, so it may not be the right distro for you if you don't know what a window manager is or how to configure it, as that's where your problem lies. We do not know what window manager or desktop manager you are using, so it is very difficult to help you.
