So I needed to switch over to UEFI on one of my VMs to try to solve an issue with multi-GPU passthrough I was having, but the couple of guides I was running into were all...convoluted and I was trying to be lazy. I stumbled on to a simple process that i'll detail below so that others with similar issues will hopefully find it helpful.

This isn't intended to be a in-depth newbie guide, you should know your way around proxmox/linux already (or at least know how to find additional answers)

I did this on a Ubuntu 23.04 VM on Proxmox, with ext4 partitions, but it should be adaptable to other Linux distros

1. First, you know you'll be screwing with partitions in this guide, so be sure to shutdown your VM and make a copy of your bootdisk using what ever method you prefer, I used dd from the Proxmox shell to make an image from the LVM partition dd if=/dev/pve/vm-<VM-ID>-disk-<DISK-ID> of=/somewhere/safe/vm-<VM-ID>-disk-<ID>.raw
2. Download a LiveCD ISO called boot-repair-disk from ht

Hey everyone! So, I thought it would be a nice idea to put together a list of all the bigger news stories that may have been missed over the last week. There's always something going on in the Steam Deck world, so I wanted to share a roundup of news. If this is something you guys like, I will start doing this every week!

If you would like to see more information, like weekly available bundles and such, just let me know and I can add it to next week's list.

Hardware/Software News:

[Proton Experimental Update Fixes GTA 5 Enhanced, MySims Kingdom, and XCOM 2](https://steamdec

SOLVED If any lost souls find themselves here in a similar situation let it be known that the file that worked for me was creating a file at '%h/.config/systemd/user/google-drive-ocamlfuse.service' with the following content:

Howdy, I have very recently installed Opensuse Tumbleweed alongside Windows 10 (On a seperate drive) and am trying to get things setup to where I can fully transition to linux. One of the first things I have hit a wall on is getting a file to execute on boot using systemd.

I am trying to use this package to be able to access my google drive from Dolphin. And so far it works okay. Except that it doesn't survive a reboot. I have to run the comman

I made some fan art jokers recently, and I wanted to share the template I created for others to use. I couldn't find a post that already had a template and stuff, so I hope this is helpful. You have to have GIMP (or other editors that can open .xcf) to use it, but GIMP is free and cool.

Joker Template I made: https://switzerville.itch.io/balatro-joker-template Use notes: If you draw the joker pixel perfect, scale them up by X8 and paste them over the example. The text box will give you a warning. You will have to use the "Drop Shadow" effect in the filters tab to get the shadow under the Joker's name if you want that.

First of all, thank you for all the upvotes, comments, and support on Part 1 of this article! Your enthusiasm truly fuels my motivation to continue, and I have more in-depth guides lined up on topics I hope you’ll find interesting, such as setting up dual screens for Wii U, DS and 3DS, online gaming on supported emulators, PKHex and Pokemon trading on the SD, the most iconic games for each console, etc…

Hi selfhosting community :)

I am hosting some services on a NixOS box (Immich, Nextcloud and some others). So far I had no problem reaching my services, just via tailscale when I am not at home.

But now I wanted to branch out and get a little fancy with https setup and a domain, so I can share my services with friends. I followed this guide and got a domain at cloudflare. However I ran into some problems.

The relevant setup: ::: spoiler spoiler Nextcloud:

 undefined

    
services.nextcloud = {
  enable = true;
  hostName = "nextcloud.<mydomain>.com";
  https = true;
};

  

Nginx:

 undefined

    
services.nginx = {
  enable = true;
  virtualHosts = {
    "nextcloud.<mydomain>.com" = {
      forceSSL = true;
      useACMEHost = "<mydomain>.com";
    };
    "immich.<mydomain>.com" = {
      forceSSL = true;
      useACMEHost = "<mydomain>.com";

Hi everybody! I just created Linux Crack Support (feel free to join). This guide is also freshly baked straight from the oven, still warm. It's a guide for how to add non-steam games (sourced from anywhere really) onto your Linux system. This means it also works for your Steam Deck, which is an awesome thing! So I am hereby cross posting this guide to help you all.

In the world of gaming on Linux, using tools like Steam with Proton and Lutris with Wine can significantly enhance your experience by allowing you to play Windows-exclusive games. However, sometimes games require specific dependencies to run smoothly. This guide will walk you through the process of adding games to both Steam and Lutris, as well as how to install the necessary dependencies using information from SteamDB.

Part 1: Adding Games to Steam with Proton

1. Install Steam:
   • If you haven't already, download Steam from the Steam website. Install, run, and log in.
2. Get the Game:
   • To add and run the game on Steam, you need to have the game files ready. You are responsible for how you get the files. I prefer these two places, as the games come pre-installed:
     • Place ONE
     • Place TWO
3. Add the Game:
   • Go to your "Library" and

For reference I use 5 Sonoff NS Panel 120's in my home as HA Dashboards. These devices essentially run AOSP 8.0 and can run most android apps. The problem is that these devices will never get any security updates so they pose a security risk to your network.

SCOPE:

This guide is meant to restrict internet access on these devices to reduce the attack vector. It was created for the NS Panel Pro but it should work with any android tablet that has access to ADB. I will NOT be covering how to get the NS Panel Pro into the stock android launcher (see the below guides for that).

So Decky-Dication is a really cool plugin that lets you use voice typing in game mode. The github is here, but unfortunately they were never able to get the plugin small enough for it to be in the Decky store, and the project has since been abandoned.

Luckily, the plugin still works really well. You can build it yourself from the github, or if you're trusting enough you can download an already built .zip file here.

Once you have the plugin file, unzip it on your deck, and move it to the homebrew/plugins folder. That folder is usually write protected, so you may need to move it using a terminal command (ie if you extracted the folder on the desktop, the command would be sudo mv ~/Desktop/decky-dication ~/homebrew/plugins. Then switch back to game mode and it should be in your plugin list.

Once the plugin is installed, you press steam+b+L2 to start speech to text

I've recently been able to set up Lemmy and PieFed instances on a Raspberry Pi 5 and wanted to share the process for anyone else interested in self hosting an instance.

The following instructions are based off using a used Raspberry Pi 5 (ARM64) plus a USB external hard drive for the hardware. I used the Raspberry Pi 5 image which is based off Debian 12. The following instructions should be similar enough for other Debian 12 distributions and should hopefully get the same results.

The only other purchase I've made was a domain name which was super cheap ($15 a year which includes hiding WHOIS information). Everything else is free.

My residential ISP service blocks incoming data on "business" ports such as Port 80 and 443. Users won't be able to access your site securely if these ports block incoming data. To work around this I used Cloudflare Tunnels. This allows users to access your site normally. Cloudflare Tunnel will send incoming data to a port of your choosing (between 1024-65

A while back I forgot my charger on holiday and I used my Deck at night to charge my phone. The issue was that my Deck completely got its battery drained which led to the so called "black screen of death", where the deck would turn on (you can hear the power chime, fans start spinning, and the trackpads vibrate on input but the screen stays black - I am on the LCD version, not even the blacklight would turn on).

Unfortunately draining the battery is not very common as the Deck will turn itself off before getting to this point, and because

First of all, this isn't my guide, so I may not be able to help if you have issues. The source for the guide was a reddit comment here.

Here's the guide:

Its been a while since I first went through getting LAN to work on the steam deck and i think i left a comment somewhere but if you want a more in depth tutorial let me know. Its a decent amount of work to get it running but afterwards you can start a local network / play with a friend in a game that supports LAN. It works in gaming mode too! Its as if it were stock. Heres a quick rundown

1. In desktop mode make sure to Install arch linux distro box with root access
2. Install yay and its dependencies to the distrobox as well as the git command

I'm going to use this guide to downgrade Firefox to something around version 127 or below because I did not have this issue with earlier versions of FF.

Btw where does Firefox store crash logs? I typed "about:crashes" in the URL bar but it says that "No crash reports have been submitted". I have also used journalctl to find these errors but I'm not sure how relevant they are:
