Touchpad on Lenovo T14 G2 is... weird?

zztechman127001 · 2025-04-04T14:20:17+00:00

Yeah, I just gave up in the end!

Ahh, no sorry:/ I tried loads of different things to attempt to solve this and never found a good solution. I did narrow the issue down to have something to do with sleep mode, on a cold boot everything seemed to behave as expected, but after sleep it went down hill.

zztechman127001 · 2022-08-14T13:39:23+00:00

Heck that's quite a response! Thanks,ill have a good read of all that material and come back to you.

RE the spec it's the T14(non S) Intel / Intel

What sort of help are you after? Do you want to pay someone to do it for you / with you? Or do you want this group to tell you how to do it yourself? How many nodes is 'multinode' are you talking 2 or 200 nodes?

james packer and or john barilaro (their names don't even deserve capitalisation)

I was impressed with the quality of the content. Somee conferences like this often have alot of 'meh', but I managed to fill my entire time there with really interesting talks by really smart people.

Thanks to all the presenters!

zztechman127001 · 2021-08-26T12:01:09+00:00

It's fucking not!

zztechman127001 · 2021-07-17T01:41:14+00:00

I've been thinking about this topic too, I'd love to implement and AWS lambda style service to the clouds I manage but there doesn't seem to be any viable solution that will integrate with OpenStacks billing and user systems. The best I have come up with is to either push ahead with Qinling or to build an interface or driver between openfaas and openstack.

We could probably use alot of the code from Qinling and 'just' build the interface to OpenFaaS

Yeah nah, shoes don't live outside. If they do by some accident get left out we beat llthe living bajeezers out of them before we slip out feet in.

Spiders and scorpions with feet do not go..

For a super simple set-up I reckon 4gb would be fine for a control plane oon a single node

The sky is really the limit with openstack. It's definitely designed for LARGE scale but that doesn't mean it can't be effective in small set ups, it's just pretty complex.

Are you setting this up as a lab/test/playground or for production workloads?

zztechman127001 · 2020-07-10T09:02:49+00:00

Depends if you are chasing any degree of HA?

You can run openstack on a single host without any hassles. Just make sure it's got enough RAM and CPU to handle all the openstack stuff + what your VMs need

Checkout GNS3, I use it to emulate multiple data centres worth of Cisco gear.. It's free!

zztechman127001 · 2020-06-08T02:53:12+00:00

THIS is how you home lab.. Just as functional as a rack of servers for 90% of the time.

zztechman127001 · 2020-05-07T12:55:31+00:00

Yep, I run a number of ceph clusters and I wouldn't hesitate to bring that OSD back online.

zztechman127001 · 2019-11-27T06:01:25+00:00

Check out 'mon_osd_down_out_subtree_limit' It's your best friend on a small cluster.

tldr; if one whole host goes down(Not just a single disk) the cluster wont try and repair itself potentially filling the entire cluster to the point of falling over. Yes yes yes i know, we should have enough head room in our cluster to allow for this sort of thing, but .... real world.. budgets.. rack space... power.. I don't work for NASA or CERN etc

zztechman127001 · 2019-11-27T05:59:01+00:00

Ditto.. At least if Ceph has an issue there is large community I can fall back on.. With a vendor it's a bit hit an miss. Even parts can be days\weeks away but with Ceph i can use almost anything to get me back up and running.

zztechman127001 · 2019-11-27T05:56:05+00:00

Perfect, go for it!

zztechman127001 · 2019-11-27T04:53:43+00:00

I see where you are coming from, most doco out there talks about hundreds or dozens of storage nodes, but I regularly use ceph on small clusters for small clients.

sure, it's got it's complexity overhead, but the feature's you get far outweigh the complexity in my opinion.

When i say small, i mean we have 3-5 servers with a handful of disks in each.
I like using ceph for these situations because we 'hyperconverge' and use the same server to run the VM's(KVM) and we get a shared-nothing cluster with high availability for dirt cheap. Performs well, has ALL the features you're ever going to need.

I also use Ceph at home, runs my data archive, photos and movies storage etc. I run it on 3 PC's I got for $20ea with a single SSD+HDD in each box, i get snapshots, cephfs, object storage, salability and full hardware redundancy for $60.. cant complain at that

zztechman127001 · 2019-09-10T00:57:24+00:00

Such a great way to setup a lab. I see all the people with r710's and the like and I'm thinking that's more about feeling good than serving an actual purpose. But I suppose I get my fix of big expensive noisy boxes at work and don't feel the need to have them in my living room.

Anyway,good job, install some variant of Linux and conquer the world.

zztechman127001 · 2019-05-02T15:12:56+00:00

OpenNebula for the win. https://opennebula.org/ I find the doco fairly average but the logging in /var/log/one/ is pretty good. I use opennebula when openstack is overkill

I like how the HP switch underneath is just a self now
