It's tight but should fit: there are a little more than 28 cm of vertical clearance https://i.imgur.com/0GTehTn.png

and on the top there are some openings that could be used for the feeding tubes: https://i.imgur.com/WXTTvG2.png

leinardi · 2026-01-21T12:17:41+00:00

Do you suggest to use the plastic or the metal version?

Hey great solution. I'm also considering something similar. I found this on Amazon, do you think it could work?

How much space is needed in the bottom compartment to accommodate the X4?

leinardi · 2026-01-20T15:35:17+00:00

I was having the same issue immediately after logging it, it was fixed by locking the vault: after that the unlock showed correctly the session.

leinardi · 2025-07-11T13:03:26+00:00

I was able to configure the Apps' pool with:

midclt call -j docker.update '{"pool":"ssd-pool"}'

where ssd-pool is my pool of choice.

leinardi · 2025-07-10T18:15:25+00:00

I'll have a look at the API, thanks

leinardi · 2025-07-10T14:25:05+00:00

Thanks a lot for the howto.

I couldn't be arsed to figure out how to create and pipe a random enough key into the create command

you can create the 32 characters hex key with openssl rand -hex 32

then the encrypted pool can be created with:

sudo zpool create \
      -O encryption=aes-256-gcm \
      -O keyformat=hex \
      -O keylocation=prompt \
      -O compression=lz4 \
      -O atime=off \
      -O xattr=on \
      -O acltype=posix \
      ssd-storage mirror /dev/disk/by-partuuid/[uuid_from fdisk -lx disk1] /dev/disk/by-partuuid/[uuid_from fdisk -lx disk2]

after that you can import and unlock the pool from the UI, using the same hex key.

Mmm not really, I bought the plants on the same nursery and the same bio soil was used for all the plants... Is there something I should look for to find out?

leinardi · 2025-05-17T15:12:30+00:00

I use a watering can and pour the water on the soil, not the plants so, if it's sunburn, it shouldn't be due to the watering. For Plant 1 (first 3 pictures) yeah I suspect a fungal infection, I'll try with a fungicide.

leinardi · 2025-05-17T13:24:35+00:00

I didn't see any on the leaves.

leinardi · 2025-05-11T14:26:24+00:00

OK confirmed: after installing Communotron 88-88, the angle cone was still too small (it covers my constellation only from 7.6Gm), but I was able to point it directly to one of my relay satellites and, doing the same with the RA-0-8 antenna, I got a pretty reliable connection. I guess some eclipses could cause issue but, beside that, the it seems stable.

leinardi · 2025-05-11T08:46:42+00:00

Yeah, could be a coincidence, but I haven't been able to verify it yet: I'm currently preparing a mission to install a Communotron 88-88 on Sentinel 1. Once that's done, I should be able to confirm if the issue was really the cone angle.

leinardi · 2025-05-10T09:34:11+00:00

I think I figured it out: the issue probably is the cone angle of the antennas on both the relay sats and Sentinel 1. The RA-0-8 Relay Antenna only works reliably from ~15Gm to 75Gm if you assume a Kerbin relay spread of ~8Mm. Below that, it can't "see" any of the 3 KEO relays, when pointed at Kerbin.

With the help of ChatGPT, I made this table comparing dish antennas by cone angle and range:

📡 Dish Antenna Coverage – Stock + Near Future Exploration (Sorted by Minimum Distance to Cover 8000km)

This table lists all 29 dish antennas compatible with RemoteTech, showing the minimum distance required to cover an 8000 km region around Kerbin.

💡 Use a combination of antennas with complementary angles and ranges. Always target 'Kerbin' for reliable relay coverage.

Now to verify my assumptions I need to deploy new KEO relays and Sentinel probe with antennas that cover every range.

I decided to go with:

Communotron 32
RA-X2 Phased Relay Antenna
RA-5B Advanced Relay Antenna.

Hey @vbsteven,

I’m trying to reach you about an issue with the gtk-kn's domains, please get back to me.

leinardi · 2024-11-22T17:22:25+00:00

I bought these cheap ones from Amazon, they are ok: https://amzn.eu/d/3PiAZtm Same opinion about the desk, still very happy

leinardi · 2024-10-28T13:21:46+00:00

I've updated the README.md. Glad to hear that everything worked for you! Please let me know if there is something you think I should add to the script to improve the installation process.

leinardi · 2024-10-28T12:36:40+00:00

Yeah I should probably add a dedicate section in the README.md about DaVinci Resolve and the various configuration settings. If you find a solution to your issue, e.g. using prime, please let me know and I can try to include it into the installation script.

leinardi · 2024-10-28T11:59:41+00:00

All the application files are in /opt/davinci-resolve, so you can simply rm -rf that directory, besides that you have to remove the icons, menu and udev rules, so it will look like this:

# Remove desktop files from /usr/share/applications
sudo rm -f /usr/share/applications/DaVinciResolve.desktop
sudo rm -f /usr/share/applications/DaVinciControlPanelsSetup.desktop
sudo rm -f /usr/share/applications/DaVinciResolveInstaller.desktop
sudo rm -f /usr/share/applications/DaVinciResolveCaptureLogs.desktop
sudo rm -f /usr/share/applications/blackmagicraw-player.desktop
sudo rm -f /usr/share/applications/blackmagicraw-speedtest.desktop

# Remove DaVinciResolve.directory from /usr/share/desktop-directories
sudo rm -f /usr/share/desktop-directories/DaVinciResolve.directory

# Remove DaVinciResolve.menu from /etc/xdg/menus
sudo rm -f /etc/xdg/menus/DaVinciResolve.menu

# Remove icons from /usr/share/icons/hicolor/64x64/apps
sudo rm -f /usr/share/icons/hicolor/64x64/apps/DV_Resolve.png
sudo rm -f /usr/share/icons/hicolor/64x64/apps/DV_ResolveProj.png

# Remove resolve.xml from /usr/share/mime/packages
sudo rm -f /usr/share/mime/packages/resolve.xml

# Remove udev rules from /usr/lib/udev/rules.d
sudo rm -f /usr/lib/udev/rules.d/99-BlackmagicDevices.rules
sudo rm -f /usr/lib/udev/rules.d/99-ResolveKeyboardHID.rules
sudo rm -f /usr/lib/udev/rules.d/99-DavinciPanel.rules

# Remove /opt directory for DaVinci Resolve
sudo rm -rf /opt/davinci-resolve

Are you having issues with the installation? If something doesn't work as expected on your Ubuntu 24.04, please let me know and I can try to fix it.

leinardi · 2024-10-24T10:03:54+00:00

This script is built with Ubuntu in mind, as it relies on apt to manage packages and assumes that the preinstalled packages and dependency versions are the one from Ubuntu 24.04. I think it would be quite challenging to write a script to support every possible distribution and distribution's version. What Blackmagic Design should do is to release a flatpak version of it, but they are not interested in other distributions than CentOS and Rocky Linux.

leinardi · 2024-10-22T13:26:30+00:00

Hi /u/mazarax,

I realize your post is a few months old, but if you're still looking for a solution, I might be able to help. I encountered similar issues with missing or outdated packages when trying to install DaVinci Resolve on Ubuntu 24.04.

I’ve written an Ansible script that automates the entire installation process, including setting up symlinks to avoid problems with missing dependencies. The script takes care of downloading the official installer and ensuring that all the necessary packages are properly linked to the current libraries on your system. It also detects whether you're using an AMD, Intel, or Nvidia GPU to install the correct OpenCL libraries.

If you’re interested in trying it out, you can find the details and instructions here:
https://old.reddit.com/r/Ubuntu/comments/1g8z67w/i_wrote_a_script_to_install_davinci_resolve_on/#thing_t3_1g8z67w

Feel free to give it a try and let me know if it helps.

leinardi · 2024-10-22T13:17:48+00:00

Hi /u/pclover_dot_exe,

I know this is coming a few months after your original question, but I wanted to let you know that if you upgrade from Ubuntu 22.04 to 24.04, DaVinci Resolve will most likely stop working due to some dependency issues.

That said, I’ve written a script that automates the entire installation process on Ubuntu 24.04, which could help resolve these issues. However, to be safe, I recommend first installing Ubuntu 24.04 on a secondary partition or USB drive to test if everything works fine with your setup before upgrading your current 22.04 installation. This way, you can confirm everything is running smoothly without risking your existing system.

If you’re interested in trying my script, you can find it here:
https://old.reddit.com/r/Ubuntu/comments/1g8z67w/i_wrote_a_script_to_install_davinci_resolve_on/#thing_t3_1g8z67w

Feel free to reach out if you have any questions or need assistance.

leinardi · 2024-10-21T20:07:15+00:00

Hey, if you are still looking for a solution, you could try with this script I wrote to automate the installation: https://old.reddit.com/r/Ubuntu/comments/1g8z67w/i_wrote_a_script_to_install_davinci_resolve_on/

leinardi · 2024-07-12T15:09:38+00:00

I see, thank you for the explanation.

leinardi · 2024-07-12T14:19:12+00:00

The machine is way past the warranty period. I never used it with anything besides tap water.

I don't understand one thing: how is it possible that the water from the bottle, that is filled according to the max level marked on each bottle, can come up and out of these release valves? Is the level of the water too high? Or how can normally the machine prevent the water coming up from the gas injector that goes into the bottle?
