I'm asking here since I assume a lot of you guys are running homelabs on Lenovo hardware.

I have two M720q Tiny that came with one 8 GB 2400MHz SoDIMM RAM each (see picture). I upgraded one to 2x 32 GB RAM and want to reuse the sticks in the other one for 16 GB in total and dual channel use. They have different FRU numbers (see picture) but I assume it's the same marketing part number and I guess my plan works?

Can anyone confirm? I'm just unsure about dual channel since it's not exactly the same RAM and I'm used to using exact pairs.

Thanks!

Is there an overview of which COD games work on Linux?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago

Yes please do! I was looking at Philips, Vaya etc. but I don't feel comfortable live streaming my baby to some companies server. I'm hoping to find a solution that lights up if it detects sound (like starts flashing like Vaya).

 

So I've been playing Forza Horizon 4 for a while without any issues using a XBox One Controller via Bluetooth. First i used Proton experimental and later Proton GE. Absolutely no problem.

Now however, the controller is not being recognized in game anymore (the on screen buttons show keyboard keys, not gamepad buttons) and I can't use any of the buttons (except the screenshot one). In the Steam menu, the controller test settings, big picture mode etc. it works fine and its recognized normally.

I didn't make any changes (before it happened, now of course it tried a bunch of stuff) but I did upgrade the system normally.

Any ideas what might have caused this issue?

So install back both disks, make a bootable gparted stick and do the cloning from there? The new disk is basically empty save the new file system, but ofc I can just delete that.

I think it's best to start from scratch since I didn't lose any data (yet). How would you tackle this move?

Maybe I should start over since I still have the old disk. What would be the best/proper way to swap an older smaller disk for a new larger one?

No UUIDs, only paths. When booting from a live system I noticed /etc/fstab is empty. Also, there where a bunch of partitions on /dev/sda and I can't see any on /dev/nvme0n1

No not consciously

I'm running Proxmox on a Lenovo ThinkCentre and I decided to swap the internal 256 GB 2,5" SSD for a 500 GB NVME.

I installed the new NVME alongside the old SSD, and formated it in ext4 with a single partition. I then proceeded to 'dd /dev/sda /dev/nvme0n1' and it went through without an error.

My impression was that it would clone all content from the old drive to the new, but it wouldn't boot the new drive. I then logged in and set a boot flag via fstab a, but that only helped me boot but the system gets stuck at "waiting for root file system".

Nothing is lost as the old drive still works fine when installed but how do I complete the swap correctly so I can go NVME-only?

Thank you!

Ask your doctor if Linux is right for you

Does anyone know an alternative YT app for BOTH Android phones and Android TV that allows for synched playlists?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 6 months ago (1 children)

You can use those on usenet, too. Just add your new trackers and download client, the rest of the -arr stack can remain as is.

This is the way

 

Hi people

Is there any good FOSS dictation and transcription software similar to Just Press Record for Android and/or Linux?

I couldn't find anything so far. Thanks a lot.

 

Hi guys

Is there any way to access Nextcloud files (self hosted) in a file manager just like a regular directory or remote location? So the way iCloud or Dropbox allow you to access files and use them for example to upload them in a browser. So far I only managed to access the files in the Nextcloud WebUI or via the command line (but then a resync is necessary).

Any input is appreciated. Thanks!
