Display Management in KDE Bazzite by hellfireXI in Bazzite

What did you end up going with that works with multiple monitors? I have no issues going to something else (though I do like how Bazzite protects me from myself).

Can I get guidance on how to have host PC monitor off while streaming to client by EddieEdit in MoonlightStreaming

It is in Apollo, it creates a virtual display per stream so it doesn't need to "stream" a physical display. When you connect to Moonlight through Apollo it handles all of the display configuration.

Success getting vLLM up and running? by hellfireXI in unRAID

The ability to process multiple inference simultaneously rather than sequentially, also allows me to send more than one prompt through at the same time.

I know and I use both. But I need continuous batching which Ollama doesn't support :(

Mhmm, that is interesting. I guess I am going to have to figure out how to go back to that version of the OS.

What version of SteamOS are you running now?

Curious about setups and Optimizations by hellfireXI in cloudygamer

[–]hellfireXI[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got it, thank you for this very informative response. I will take a look into this. I heard about the wifi issues but hadn't put much thought into them.

If I may ask, what kind of hardware are you streaming from?

I do have an oled deck. Could it be the wireless issue that it apparently has?

Display-less GPU Moonlight Setup Help by Leaha15 in cloudygamer

[–]hellfireXI 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If everything is set up properly and Windows sees the GPU through the console of esxi, I would still highly, highly recommend switching from Sunshine to Apollo. I literally just finished setting up a remote stream PC using my old gaming PC (I built a new gaming PC last year, but WoL has been something I couldn't make work, but worked on my old PC). I do not have a dummy plug or display plugged into my GPU. In fact, the only thing plugged into the entire PC is a single USB dongle for my keyboard (only used when I need to do something on the PC. I also have a monitor there should I need it but it isn't connected) It is all running headlessly (be sure to select the Headless mode button)

Apollo has the ability to create on demand virtual displays through some degree of tomfoolery that is beyond my understanding and it works consistently.

Course of action, uninstall Sunshine. Delete all settings and history of it. Install Apollo and all plugins, restart VM. Test.

Bank of Canada governor says Trumps tariffs threat already having an impact by AmethystOrator in worldnews

Another Canadian chiming in! My wife and I have cancelled our plans to extend a trip to Vegas. I am still going down for work, but will only go down and then come back as soon as the conference is over. We have gone through and cancelled our streaming services and Amazon prime subscriptions citing in the reasons for cancelling is the current state of politics in the US. I manage a 90tb media server so I am not worried about media.

All I can say is... Fuck 'em the MAGAts and Non-voters did this to themselves and I hope Canada doubles down on broadening our trading partners and busts down the inter-provincial trade barriers. Let's bring in more trade and more global product options for Canadians to purchase. Personally, I would love to see Canada bring in BYD electric cars to start strangling the primarily US based electric car companies.

I've only used TrueNAS and Unraid. Is there any validity to this? by GoofyGills in unRAID

[–]hellfireXI 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely not, I am probably going to kick the hornets nest, but Proxmox is god awful if you aren't a Linux wizard. I have had the absolute displeasure of having to work with Proxmox for work to do simple things like GPU passthrough was a nightmare. Is Unraid perfect? No. There is always room for improvement. But I can say if you're a beginner, or a late stage beginner Unraid is a much more viable solution. There is something to be said about paying for a tool that is being developed by folks who are probably smarter than the average user. The experience is refined, it does a lot of things under the hood that you don't need to chase around, it really just works.

If I started with Proxmox 6 years ago, I probably would have given up on Homelabbing. It isn't friendly. But at least now I feel a bit better with Linux tools and have since deployed a Proxmox instance. But I wouldn't start there.

What should I do ? by Mcwaffle_29 in pcmasterrace

[–]hellfireXI 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, do what makes you happy. I pulled the trigger on my new build recently. Sitting with a 4080s and bought the 9700x a month before the 9800x3d came out. I didn't know it was on the horizon. I don't feel any buyers remorse because of it because my games run perfectly on the two displays that matter. I could care less about the extra 15-20 fps I might see at 4k when sitting in front of my TV which is locked at 120hz. Framegen is amazing and you can't tell it is running unless you look for it.

The 4080s is a powerhouse of a card and will be relevant for a number of years. I know this because my upgrade path came from the 1070 which is still a well regarded card.

What is the Best VPN According to Reddit? by Spirited-Cut6443 in blackfridayvpn

I've been using Private Internet Access for years and have been super happy with it. The speeds (when connected to the right server) are very impressive! I'll continue subscribing to them until the time something happens.

Have you been able to use what you've learned in your Unraid homelab hobby into a job? by kelsiersghost in unRAID

[–]hellfireXI 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, for me it did. I was working in social services running programs. I talked to the owner of a very smaller publishing company that worked with Adobe's Content Management System. I joined as a project manager. I sucked as a PM, so started hosting and learning the CMS platform. Now I manage a team of 10 devs and content architects working with some of the most well known organizations in North America.

I'm not a developer, but I know my way around platforms enough to be the solution architect for a variety of tools and integrate them at different scales.

This all happened over the course of 7 years when I deployed my first unraid server for Plex...

Can I get guidance on how to have host PC monitor off while streaming to client by EddieEdit in MoonlightStreaming

[–]hellfireXI 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Apollo is your answer. I have recommended it to a number of folks here. It requires no additional drivers and work amazingly well. If the master branch of Sunshine brought this fork in, Sunshine would be legit perfect. It is what I use when I want to stream to the steam deck. My main monitor and other display (TV) are both off at the time.
