  1. Setting up Nvidia runtime for rootless Docker containers in Linux.

  2. Resolving port :53 conflict between AdGuardHome (rootless) docker container and Systemd-Resolved.

Nextcloud requiring me to set the actual domain when I just want to run it locally was pretty frustrating

Getting Keycloak and Headscale working together.

But I did it after three weeks.

I captured my efforts in a set of interdependent Ansible roles so I never have to do it again.

X11. Luckily those days are over thanks to Wayland but, Jesus, are X.org config files a fucking, fiddly PITA to configure!

Cloud-init. The config yaml is rather straight forward, but I can't convince my VM to execute it, and it's driving me nuts.

Jellyseer in docker. It won’t accept my jellyfin login. It just spins and spins. But I plan to use it locally. And everyone says you have to sign in initially not local? I don’t know. I’m annoyed with it and gave up for now.

I think this means it can't actually see your jellyfin instance, you need to use your computer's local network ip instead of localhost if the two containers aren't in the same pod via a docket compose file. I've had this issue before.

[-] aStonedSanta@lemm.ee 3 points 1 week ago

Nah. It’s on the same docker compose file through portainer. And I’ve been using the local ip. I never use local host for some reason lol

[-] TeryVeneno@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 week ago

You probably need to use localhost lol or the name of container set in the docker compose file. Both might work, I forget

Setting up Alpine or Mutt with multiple SMTP accounts is an exercise in frustration.

[-] Evil_incarnate@lemm.ee 2 points 1 week ago

Motion on my RPI. I didn't want it to save videos or photos, so I turned it off in the config. But it still saved them. So I tried a few other places in the config to turn it off, but nothing worked and I'd run out of space within a day. So I changed the save directory to /dev/null.

Then I tried to upgrade the pi, and the new version of motion has a different config, incompatible with the old one. So I'm running the old one.

it's embarrassing but for me it's thinkfan. Instead I wrote my own solution in bash.

Skyrim mods.

Btw, anyone got the new reshade working on wine?

[-] Chimrod@jlai.lu 3 points 1 week ago

For skyrim, I'm using vortex in lutris, and install the mods this way. This requires a more bit of actions but works fine.

[-] MonkderVierte@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 week ago

Wabbajack still doesn't work in wine?

[-] Andrzej3K@hexbear.net 2 points 1 week ago

Anything to do with dns

[-] MonkderVierte@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 week ago

xorg.conf. The (wrong) example from Arch Wiki works but following the official documentation doesn't.

[-] tomsh@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

Rootless podman, PostgreSQL, redis, nextcloud, nginx, iptables in one....

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
