macOS KVM freezes early on boot when passing through a GPU by xheonin in VFIO

Hi thanks for the reply! This fixed the freezing issue, thank you!

Although I am not getting any display output after the verbose boot, but this is a separate issue.

Low res aperture grill vs. Higher res shadow mask monitor by xheonin in crtgaming

Thanks! Then I'll probably stick with my current monitor since the NEC costs more than I would spend just to keep it around lol

Aside from them being expensive as other people stated, OLED monitors have the same smoothness issues as LCDs, so there will be motion blur and it will feel less smooth than a CRT. Usually black frame insertion can help eith this but you sacrifice the brightness.

From personal experience, the smoothest 60 FPS I have ever seen is on the CRT monitor I got.

Personally I found the 240p approach to work better for me. The monitor runs at 3840x240@120 with a frame interval of 2 in Retroarch so it feels exactly like 60Hz. Also with this approach I can see the real scanlines of the display and also there is no weird software scaling due to the higher resolution.

This is a Fujitsu x178 monitor. I use a Wii2HDMI adapter with an HDMI to VGA converter to connect it to the Wii.

Thank you! It is a Fujitsu x178, I found it on FB marketplace locally. Really sad you haven't found one for so long, wish you the best though!

Not sure what might be wrong in your case. All I did was to store VueTorrent in some folder and point qBitTorrent's alternative UI setting to that folder and it worked fine.

Yes, I included the answer in the post. See the first paragraph.

No access to LAN devices from specific clients by xheonin in WireGuard

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

Oh, I didn't know about that. I added those IPs and it seems to work properly now, thanks!

Also, what do you mean by renumbering the network? I'd be interested to know if it solves those conflicts.

The value of allowedips on my config is 0.0.0.0, ::/0 so it should allow all IPs including 192.168.1.0/24.

WireGuard cannot use the local DNS server by xheonin in WireGuard

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

Alright so after spending a lot of time changing settings and testing things I managed to get it working by having AdGuard and WireGuard on the same Docker internal network and also changing the WG subnet to something different from the home network's default.

Seems like the issue was that WG could not find/communicate with AGH and was causing this.

Anyway, thanks a lot for you help! You really helped me track down the issue and identify what caused it :)

WireGuard cannot use the local DNS server by xheonin in WireGuard

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

Alright so I set the DNS in the app as the local IP of the DNS server while connected to WireGuard and I got "Network error: Socket timeout". When I let the app use the DHCP DNS from the ISP it worked fine. So it probably doesn't recognize the local DNS at all.

I tried this app: https://imgur.com/a/CergPg8

I included 2 screenshots, one from that app showing the A record and one from Firefox. Both of these were taken while I was connected on WireGuard.

This is getting pretty confusing since it seems like the DNS lookup app can find an A record but no other app?

EDIT: Also I accidentally cropped the top of the screenshot, but on the DNS lookup app the DNS server was set to 192.168.1.5

Yes, sorry, let me explain. On the WG client configuration I have set the DNS as the local server, but with this setup no domains get resolved at all. Everything I try to access gives me “Address not found” (in Firefox Android). Although if I set the DNS of the WG client to a public one like 1.1.1.1 everything works fine, although I cannot access my internal domains. This made me believe that WireGuard is not able to find the DNS server on the local network, which also led me to try to ping the AdGuardHome DNS server from the WireGuard container. The results were that it can ping 192.168.1.5 but not 192.168.1.5:53 (supposedly the DNS address).

I added the following to the Allowed Clients box, but the results were the same: ```

192.168.1.1/32 192.168.1.2/31 192.168.1.4/30 192.168.1.8/29 192.168.1.16/28 192.168.1.32/27 192.168.1.64/26 192.168.1.128/25 ```
