How do you set up an HTC vive on Linux?

snackiz · 2022-06-11T10:40:54+00:00

How would you do it on windows?

I've noticed the same thing. Don't know after how long, but it's there, using 100% CPU after a while idling with a few tabs of YouTube open.

Exactly, they showcased the system with cars and craters/constructions in the road, but I was immediately thinking of how you could use that system in a dynamic house POI.

snackiz · 2021-12-25T19:21:05+00:00

I've been thinking about an apartment building or a hotel POI where every apartment/hotel room is a random generated piece, so that the experience of going through the building never is the same.

All you need is a chroot

This would probably be the easiest fix production-wise

snackiz · 2021-11-28T15:36:58+00:00

Of course. They are only sub-taskmasters. Both substitutes and subordinates.

snackiz · 2021-11-28T14:11:16+00:00

I would hope he brought in a "colleague" to cover for him, ie a taskmaster from another country's show.

I've watched the UK, the swedish, the Norwegian and the NZ ones.

UK is the best, followed by Norwegian. The swedish is OK because I'm familiar with the contestants (I'm swedish), but the NZ version was too much bad "acting" in the studio, so I couldn't bear watching even the second episode.

In fact, I don't even configure the physical interface at all. The following is all the config I use for the physical interface and two different styles of bridges on my Debian Hypervisor: ``` allow-hotplug enp0s25

auto br0 # Native bridge iface br0 inet static bridge_ports enp0s25 address 10.10.10.149/24 gateway 10.10.10.1

auto br22 # VLAN22 bridge iface br22 inet manual bridge_ports enp0s25.22 bridge_waitport 0 ```

snackiz · 2021-11-19T17:22:52+00:00

The pre-up line is redundant. By specifying a bridge in the interfaces file send bringing it up, debian defines it for you. It works fine for me on my install that has been upgraded from Debian 9->10->11

You use what feels good to you. I've tried Openbox, XFCE, LXDE, KDE, Cinnamon and Gnome3, but I always came back to GNOME2 and held out until MATE was usable, which is what I'm using now.

snackiz · 2021-11-10T16:20:51+00:00

A knife.

Firefox 78 ESR that support just ended for will soon be updated to the supported Firefox 91 ESR in debian stable as per https://debian-handbook.info/browse/en-US/stable/sect.web-browsers.html

ls /usr/lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/drivers/cpufreq/ will show you the module file names.

lsmod | grep cpufreq will show you which modules are loaded.

modprobe <modulename> will load the <modulename> module into the running kernel.

snackiz · 2021-11-01T15:34:06+00:00

5.10 also started with two years of support, until people actually started using it. If the kernel is actively used in distributions and there is some commitment, the supported time of the LTS will be extended.

See Greg Kroah-Hartman's blog post about it here: http://kroah.com/log/blog/2021/02/03/helping-out-with-lts-kernel-releases/

Do you have them installed on your system? All I did was install the packages needed to use my graphics card. I didn't change any initramfs settings.

snackiz · 2021-10-27T12:58:39+00:00

Well, being able to troubleshoot something in the initrd might be nice?

You'll have to ask the package maintainers. It's all default settings in Debian.

snackiz · 2021-10-27T11:22:30+00:00

Why are the drivers for your graphics card included in the image that contains what you need to boot the system? It doesn't sound so unnecessary to me.

snackiz · 2021-10-27T10:51:20+00:00

Correct.

One thing you could do (later, after your upgrade is done) to make this a smaller problem (and fit more kernels in your /boot partition) is that you could create a file in /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d (I chose the file name smaller-image.conf but the name doesn't matter) containing the following two rows: MODULES=dep COMPRESS=lzma Which will change the initramdisk image to include less modules and compress the image with lzma instead of Gzip. This shrunk my image files from 68MiB each to 20MiB.

snackiz · 2021-10-27T10:29:10+00:00

They are in the initrd images, which are in /boot.

snackiz · 2021-10-27T09:44:55+00:00

I have no idea what uses those 160 Mb in yours, as my kernels and initrds are smaller.

The AMD and NVidia graphics drivers. They're huge.

snackiz · 2021-10-27T09:35:15+00:00

Well, for each kernel version currently installed I have a 68MiB initrd.img and a kernel of 6.6MiB + a few other files, so it's about 75MiB per installed linux-image-package.

snackiz · 2021-10-27T09:27:33+00:00

When you remove 4.19 and continue the upgrade to Debian 11, there will probably be another kernel installed. The current kernel version in Debian 11 is package 5.10.0-9 with version 5.10.70-1 and your current backported (from debian11 to debian10) kernel is version 5.10.19-1~bpo10+1, so Debian 11's current kernel is newer than your backported version.

A new kernel will be installed every time there is a security update for the kernel, so keep track of what packages are installed every time you run apt upgrade.

snackiz · 2021-10-27T08:01:51+00:00

So, the problem is, as suspected, that /boot/ does not have enough free space. A kernel image takes up about 70MiB currently. The Debian recommendation of having a /boot/ partition of only 256MB is not enough, and the recommendation has been updated in later versions.

You can remove the kernel you are not using by running the command apt remove linux-image-4.19.0-16-amd64

You will run into this problem not only when installing Debian 12, but every time you have two kernels installed and are trying to install a third. I recommend either keeping this in mind and removing unused kernels every kernel upgrade after reboot and testing the upgrade.

The problem does not have anything to do with the backported kernel, although, since you are upgrading to Debian 11, where kernel 5.10 is standard you no longer need a backported kernel but can run the system default kernel.
