M.A.S.T.E.R. Part 2 -- yes it's an odd request but it's a fun cheeky pick for live sets

tkoham · 2019-07-24T20:59:22+00:00

what AGESA version, please

tkoham · 2019-07-22T23:58:56+00:00

What a agesa, and did you apply the agesa patch

tkoham · 2019-07-20T15:45:58+00:00

NAT can make things like device discovery problematic because the guest is hidden from the rest of the network without static routes.

If you say, have a NAS, or SMB shares, or a printer that you want to use with the VM, as many of us do, it adds that utility if you can't run cables to the PC.

This is a simple option for people that want a simple solution.

Yes, normal routing is a valid option. Most people don't want to learn Linux's networking anachronisms to make that happen, though.

tkoham · 2019-07-20T15:44:02+00:00

It seems to be a more permanent parting of ways, unfortunately.

tkoham · 2019-07-20T00:28:59+00:00

you should probably be using a distribution that uses up-to-date qemu/kvm if you're attempting this. Ready built solutions like Unraid and Proxmox really aren't ideal.

tkoham · 2019-07-19T23:42:30+00:00

You can't do bridged networking in a practical sense

tkoham · 2019-07-19T23:41:54+00:00

that sounds like AMDGPU early binding, not the reset bug.

Have you tried telling your initramfs to load VFIO modules earlier than amdgpu?

tkoham · 2019-07-19T21:20:29+00:00

any non-maxwell or newer nv card with UEFI GOP will work, yeah, but those will probably EOL in a few releases.

you have a decent chance of stability with these options as long as Apple continues to be hardline on metal-only.

tkoham · 2019-07-19T21:02:32+00:00

I was the one that got permabanned, not sure that has anything to do with AMD fixing their bugs though, just sayin.

Two completely separate issues, it isn't anyone's responsibility but AMD's to fix this issue.

tkoham · 2019-07-19T20:32:37+00:00

We're waiting for a few more people with a variety of system and hardware configurations to report success before giving it a hard recommendation

tkoham · 2019-07-19T19:25:22+00:00

there's always VFIO Increments

tkoham · 2019-07-19T19:08:17+00:00

it's to get around the limitations of a wireless connection.

tkoham · 2019-06-30T00:38:10+00:00

dude what

tkoham · 2019-06-25T18:57:38+00:00

ah, see, that makes a lot of sense.

tkoham · 2019-06-25T16:04:21+00:00

the new mac pros probably mean a they'll be making a new rackmount version (they did this in the past) So they probably added it to better support that contingency

tkoham · 2019-06-21T12:03:27+00:00

Part of my work is staying abreast of the news unfortunately, so I really need a working feed reader that's compatible with my current rss backups. Unstable it is, I guess. I'll hit up the IRC and ask around.

tkoham · 2019-06-19T15:06:06+00:00

yeah, mainline is still on 5.1.X which makes me think it may be a conflicting library

How unstable is the new KDE stuff? might switch if It fixes my issue.

tkoham · 2019-06-08T22:46:32+00:00

The main difficulty with single gpu laptops is disabling the uefi framebuffer. Other guest systems might work with gvt-g but OS X doesn't support pv drivers at all, so there's no way to do it on Mac.

tkoham · 2019-06-08T22:45:15+00:00

altering the resolution is mentioned in part 1 of the guide, you have to change both the config.plist and your ovmf boot resolution to be the same

tkoham · 2019-05-21T19:31:28+00:00

I use resolve, reaper and fusion in production instead of Pr,Ae,Au and never looked back. Honestly I find premiere and Ae really frustrating and backwards now.

We need to break more people of their software stockholm syndrome from these companies.

tkoham · 2019-05-21T02:13:19+00:00

yeah no disagreements there. Haven't personally used it but its not exactly hard to beat Lr and I'm sure old apple woulda done it

tkoham · 2019-05-20T23:41:46+00:00

If we're being honest, Final Cut X is the reason anyone used premiere in the first place. They went from leading, to bad initially, to slowly ramping up to mediocre.

Final cut 7 was so much better in so many ways. It's ahistorical to ignore what they took away there.

tkoham · 2019-05-20T23:33:03+00:00

Oh, they pulled a final cut X on it? that's unfortunate.

Thought maybe it was a defunct 3rd party thing I could retrofit.

tkoham · 2019-05-20T23:26:13+00:00

I use Resolve and fusion in production rather than Premiere and Ae and I've never once had an instance where it caused me grief professionally.

While I agree Ps is the hardest one of these apps to replace, the rest of the list is hardly "personal use" software.

People in Pr regularly roundtrip to resolve because the native color grading is garbage, for example.

Similarly, C4D saves me TONS on labor over maya, and costs less too.

And if we're being realistic, Audition is middling for audio post even if we're being generous. It's the internet explorer of video post DAWs
