How do I trouble shoot a broken tray icon in swaybar?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 month ago

There will be a new sticky soon, for the upcoming week. Allow me to suggest you to ask again there for visibility. Please provide some details, what's broken? E.g. "context menu doesn't open"

I have figured out how to set up a shortcut to suspend my desctop! (yeah rookie here). My issue is, that it wakes up, whenever someone walks past it. Is there a way to define what wakes my PC (more mouse movement, maybe disable the mouse from waking it?)

Interesting! After a search, I can say that apparently you need to config the "file" /proc/acpi/wakeup. However, some claimed the change wouldn't persist (makes sense to me). I wonder if there's a distro specific setting for this... Else, you'd need to write some script for init.d or systemd..!

I've two Mint VMs in Virtualbox. One hosts internal services and has critical data. The other is hosting services exposed to the internet and has no data of value.

I think I can paravirtualize one of these VMs, I think using docker. I'd end up with a single image I could then easily migrate to physical hardware.

Am I on the right track? I've no problem figuring out how. But, I'm not sure which means is best and why.

I would move to KVM as it is faster and easier

Fuck. I was overcomplicating it.

Do you have Proxmox cluster? IG you start hosting services that's the way to go. You van start with a single node.

Never mind, I just found this post which explains it all.

Is it better practice to mount drives in /mnt/mountpoint or in /media/user/mountpoint?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 2 months ago

/run/media/USERNAME is better and works without root, if you use udisksctl
