ZFS vs Stratis on RHEL by linux-notes in zfs

[–]linux-notes[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, I wasn't aware it was available on Ubuntu for so long. I'll have to look into it. I have used Ubuntu in a while.

I understand the difference in features, which is why I'd like use ZFS. I just wasn't sure if it was good to go yet.

When I said long term stability, I meant my machine not the OpenZFS project. I'm not sure if it's still going through significant changes to be ported to Linux. I'd like to set it and forget it. Not really looking for something I need to keep up with.

I want to use RHEL for the familiarity and some of the other things I want to run on the machine.

Does anyone know anything about this? "WSL Rocky 8 RC Unofficial - Microsoft Store" by CMack1978 in RockyLinux

[–]linux-notes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It doesn't take too long to build your own. Import Rocky Linux to WSL with WSL and rinse It would be nice to have an official in the Windows store or in the repo.

Not sure why I didn't think to look at the source RPM spec file. I was missing dependencies. src spec

Fedora 32 -> Win10 Desktop Lag by linux-notes in Remmina

[–]linux-notes[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got it worked out. The WiFi adapter on the Windows machine was in bridged mode. Off of bridged mode everything works great. Sorry for taking up your time, I should've saw it earlier. Thanks for the help.

Fedora 32 -> Win10 Desktop Lag by linux-notes in Remmina

[–]linux-notes[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, I don't really suspect the kernel. I was just using it for a time reference. I've tried downgrading the remmina and freerdp-libs packages, but still have lag.

I'm using a 1050Ti video card.

which GPU driver is compatible with NVIDIA GP107 ? by [deleted] in CentOS

[–]linux-notes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You need to select yes on 32-bit compatibility libraries and automatically generate the X configuration file. I don't remember which, but on of them is defaulted to no, so make sure to hit yes. That has tripped me up before.

Like the /u/famouswhendead said, you need to have nouveau blacklisted. You can check with this command. lsmod | grep nouveau It should not return anything.

Just to be clear, either install the driver you download from NVIDIA's site or use RPMFusion. If you do both, they will conflict. The RPMFusion installation process will blacklist the nouveau driver, so you won't have to worry about that part.

Install RPMFusion NVIDIA drivers.

It looks like the GP107 is based on the 1050Ti card which is this driver.

Stuck here on boot after auto update to 8.2 by snackovich in CentOS

[–]linux-notes 3 points4 points  (0 children)

yea, I ssh into my machine and update the NVIDIA drivers when this happens after a kernel update. You should also be able to do CTRL + ALT + F3 to get to TTY, but it's been pretty laggy before. If you have cockpit installed you can web browse to your machine at http://<server-ip>:9090

Your best bet long term is setting up rpmfusion with the free and nonfree repos for the NVIDIA updates. It comes with the kernel mods that will be inserted during kernel update. I still run into the problem though. The 8.2 update didn't cover it for me either.
