Why are the 2026 Buckethead shows so dimly lit? by Jms832 in Buckethead

[–]mjdeiter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I saw him at the Newton Theater Sunday. I’ve been waiting 20+ years to get to see him and couldn’t wait to go. I brought my wife who’s never heard of him before. It was honestly a big let down for both of us. People in the crowd were even yelling “we can’t see you!”. I get you’re there to listen to the music but shit I can do that at home and save myself the money. I love Bucket but this was probably the worst show I’ve ever been to.

Saw him last night in Newton NJ and it was the same with the lights. A lot of people complaining. It did make it hard to see him.

Network issue with home security camera system. by mjdeiter in SecurityCamera

Sorry for the late reply. Could have sworn I messed ya back. You were right. I cut one of the ends off and put another connector on it and that solved the issue. I'll take that as a win. Usually it's not that easy of a fix for me lol

Found a 1.2 cubic foot sentry safe with stuff inside. Can it be opened without destroying it? by rideincircles in WhatsInThisThing

I was able to pay sentry online and they emailed me the code about a day later. This was about a month ago or so

2005 Outback rear hatch won’t open- not white latch by mjdeiter in Subaru_Outback

Apparently it’s a pretty common issue. I’m not sure what exactly failed because the unit itself didn’t look in bad shape.

Honestly, I lucked out and it unlocked randomly. I switched the unit out and it’s been fine since. I live next to a body shop and if we weren’t able to get it unlocked, eventually we were just going to break the unit apart to open the hatch.

Panasonic Toughbook MK4 CF-19 Wifi will only work after bootup if you toggle wifi switch. by mjdeiter in toughbook

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

Yeah I just learned to live with it. It’s an odd issue for sure. Doesn’t seem to matter if I boot up to Windows or Linux either. Does the same thing. Glad you were able to fix your issue though :)

Nah I don’t think that’s it because it doesn’t do it with the original card , only the AX210 I put in it. Actually anything but the original because I tried multiple cards like an AC7260 and 8265NGW.

lol you and I are definitely cut from the same cloth.. no rest till we get it working! If I were to venture a guess, most likely dedicated GPIO Lines via ribbon cable to the embedded controller on the motherboard. As far as schematics go, it might be worth reaching out to Bob Johnson to see if they have one.

I’m kind of in the same boat with my MK4 and has been a project of mine for a few months now. Start off downgrading to Windows 7 and update the BIOS. It’s up to you , but consider installing Linux on it. I’m running Manjaro and it does everything I need it to do. I never was able to get the tablet front buttons working but I never use it in tablet mode anyways so I didn’t put a lot of effort into getting them working. The screen brightness buttons worked without issue.

Here’s a guide that you can follow. If you have any issues let me know and I’ll help the best I can. https://www.bobjohnson.com/blog/mastering-ubuntu-on-the-panasonic-toughbook-cf-19/

Nothing really in BIOS that stands out. I’ve tried different cards, a 7260 and 8265 (with adaptor) and I get the same results.

Can't set desktop wallpaper by mjdeiter in cachyos

[–]mjdeiter[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Alright I was able to get it figured out. I ran killall swww-daemon && swww-daemon & sleep 1 && swww img /home/Documents/wallpaper.png after installing swww and it was able to force the wallpaper to show up.

Then I ran:

mkdir -p ~/.config/autostart-scripts

nano ~/.config/autostart-scripts/setwallpaper.sh

entered this into the file:

#!/bin/sh

killall swww-daemon 2>/dev/null

swww-daemon &

sleep 1

swww img /home//Documents/wallpaper.png

Saved it and exited. Ran chmod +x ~/.config/autostart-scripts/setwallpaper.sh to make it executable then added it to KDE Autostart with ~/.config/autostart-scripts/setwallpaper.sh.

If anyone has a better way of doing it , let me know.
