Hey all,

Just thought I'd share my kinda unattended installer. I know there are a number of scripts out there, but thought others might be interested in this style of installer.

Boot into the official Arch Linux ISO then download the script.

There is an installation config file where you choose which bundles you want installed, and things like the root drive and username etc.

The install will ask for the root password and your user password and that should be it. The rest of the script will go through and automatically install all your selected packages (plus further config if needed), do the regional stuff for timezones etc

I haven't updated the script in a while and it hasn't been tested by many others so your mileage may vary. But here it is, warts and all.

Hey all, not sure how I managed this, but over the years I somehow managed to configure different paths which are listed in kf5-config. The for instance the cache path should be /home/matt/.cache, but kf5-config lists it in /mnt/data/matt/home/.cache. I'm sure this was intentional at one point but now i'm trying to fix up my partitions.

So my question is - how do I change the paths listed in kf5-config to where it should be on the root partition (/home/matt/...)?. I'll move the actual data from where it is onto the root partition, I just need to know how to change that paths are configured in kf5-config.

Cheers

kf5-config paths:

cache:
/mnt/data/matt/home/.cache/
config:
/mnt/data/matt/home/.config/:/mnt/data/matt/home/.config/kdedefaults/:/etc/xdg/
data:
/mnt/data/matt/home/.local/share/:/usr/share/:/usr/local/share/
emoticons:
/mnt/data/matt/home/.local/share/emoticons/:/usr/share/emoticons/
exe:
/usr/lib/libexec/:/usr/bin/
html:
/mnt/data/matt/home/.local/share/doc/HTML/:/usr/share/doc/HTML/

etc.. etc..

Edit: I just wanted to add that these paths are different from what is listed in qtpaths:

$ qtpaths --paths CacheLocation
/home/matt/.cache/<APPNAME>
$ qtpaths --paths ConfigLocation
/home/matt/.config:/home/matt/.config/kdedefaults:/etc/xdg

Solved:

Turns out that it expands symlinked directories.

Hey all, I have a Samsung S22 and got an update this morning which has forced on the navigation bar at the bottom of the screen. Disabling the new circle to search didn't make a difference.

I heard it can be disabled through GoodLock but I'm not installing that. Maybe it can be disabled via adb or something?

Cheers

Hey all I'm looking for recommendations for a video doorbell that doesn't need an internet connection.

Preferably something that is WiFi and would work with Frigate?

Since the update, if I snap Firefox to the top the mouse seems to be offset a number of pixels compared to where the actual cursor is. It also affects the content in sites, not just stuff in Firefox.

Edit: Looks like it's not just when it's snapped, but as soon as it passes about the top 90% of the screen. Just took a screenshot, where you can see the cursor is hovering over Other Bookmarks, but it's activating the menu above it.

Hi all,

Just wondering how progress is on eGPU docks? I want to upgrade my GPU at some point and thought it might be cool to put it in a dock and connect it to a laptop. The laptop has a couple thunderbolt ports.

How's compatibility these days?

I can search for it and it opens fine, but it results in 404 community not found when opening it under my subscriptions list.

I notice it doesn't have the instance name like others do, which might another symptom of the underlying issue.

Any chance we could get an option to show our profile icon on the bottom navigation bar please?

This would make it easier to identify which profile is being used at a glance.
