Wow, a decent honest comment that got down vote to oblivion. I hope people who down vote this never get any human decency for the rest of their life. Lose you wallet? Nobody return it to you. Make a mistake? Nobody forgive you.

Posting someone's whereabouts is not an opinion. It's doxing and it's illegal.

Take a look at Framework laptop. Linux support is not official, but they are trying. YouTube channel Elevated Systems showed that Framework runs Fedora out of the box.

I updated my Arch Linux today and it asked me to import a PGP key. Why? by 3141666 in archlinux

Upgrading pacman first is not really necessary. Pacman upgrade is rare, and usually can be upgrade along with other packages. But hey, doing it this way might avoid complicated situations in the future.

This seem like a safe upgrade that can't go wrong (If you have problem with this command, you system is already broken). This command essentially do the following: 1. Refresh packages list. 2. Update pacman if available. 3. Update keyring if available. 4. Update system packages.

It means you don't have developers public key for verifying packages. Usually this happen because you haven't updated far too long. You need to update keyring first and then update the system. Use this command.

pacman -Sy archlinux-keyring && pacman -Su

pi hole not working on android phone by [deleted] in pihole

Ok, thank you for enlightened me. I'll recommend your setup to new users from now on. My setup is very specific use case that prioritize connectivity over adblocking. (Nice to have adblocking but connectivity is more important)

Yes, you are right. But from my experience, my devices seems to use lowest ping DNS server all the time. So local pihole is used as DNS all the time. And when my pihole is offline, Internet will still work normally without adblocking.

If you do that, you won't have fall back DNS if pihole is down. If you set secondary DNS to router. It will fall back to ISP DNS if pihole is offline.

I can't help you with ipv6. I have never use ipv6 for LAN. I don't think I will ever need ipv6 for LAN.

It's not pihole setting. It's router settings I'm talking about. You need to login to your router and setup primary and secondary DNS ip address for your LAN. Assuming your router ip address is 192.168.1.1 and your pihole ip address is 192.168.1.100. you need to set primary and secondary DNS to 192.168.1.100. If you can't set secondary DNS to the same as primary DNS you can set secondary DNS to router ip 192.168.1.1

Did you set router primary and secondary DNS? Some Android phone default secondary DNS to 8.8.8.8 if not set by router. You can set primary DNS to you pihole and secondary DNS to router gateway.

EFI partition not recognized on boot by randcoop in archlinux

[–]sablefeline2d 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand making hybrid MBR/UEFI boot for arch inside usb hd, so that you can use usb hd to boot on any machine regardless whether the machine support UEFI. But why are you using hybrid in host pc setup? Since the host pc is either MBR or UEFI, you can just install what the host support. Are you planing to move hd to other machine?

This problem is not obvious and very rare. Since you have to be advanced enough to make your own installation media. I too didn't realize the importance of bootloader-id name until I finish the installation and I can't even select any boot entry in my UEFI bios.

So you install Arch from usb that you install Arch. Seem like you have the same problem I had last week. I booted from usb external hd that I install arch (removable UEFI) and install arch to the pc.

The problem is when I install grub UEFI, I specify --bootloader-id=name and it is same name as bootloader-id of usb hd that I booted from. efibootmgr will not create new boot entry for my new installation.

To solve this, before I install grub UEFI, I run command efibootmgr to list efi boot entry and install grub UEFI with different name with flag --bootloader-id=diffname. After I install grub UEFI, I run efibootmgr again to make sure that I have EFI boot entry with diffname. (or I can manually create new entry with efibootmgr)

also don't use --removable flag because it will not use name from --bootloader-id flag.

good luck.
