• how do you Backup your system?
  5 projects | /r/EndeavourOS | 23 Nov 2022

  I use BTRBK to make and copy BTRFS snapshots to my HDD. I schedule it to run every 3 hours using a Sytemd unit file through my own script to run the backup at more convenient moments:

• How can I send audio output to multiple bluetooth devices?
  1 project | /r/pipewire | 18 Nov 2022

  I personally prefer to use the old module-combine-sink module due to its simplicity. It's rock solid. I use it for about two years with this script I made. Don't think too much about it, since it's implemented in a quite different scenario from what you have there. The only similarity is that we are creating a virtual sink to simultaneously output sound from two different sinks. I have a mini-system that I keep disabled and the script not only creates the virtual sink but also enables the mini-system sink. For everyday use, I prefer to keep my audio panel clean with just my HDMI sink.

• Do I need to do anything specific after a PC freeze?
  1 project | /r/btrfs | 17 Nov 2022

  Having some concern is one thing, thinking of doing intensive disk procedures is a whole 'nother story. I mean.. It's just a cold shutdown. Anyway, if you're copying some data for the first time and a cold shutdown happens, there's nowhere to run on any filesystem. The data would be obviously gone. I never had a single issue after some cold shutdown and I have a script that periodically checks its health. On COW filesystems, the data is presented on the disk just once, even if you copy it, for example. On further manipulation of that data, that change it's written in one or more unused blocks, and the original data remains unchanged. If some unexpected shutdown strikes, for example, the original data will be safe where it was before.

• Wayland users, how is waydroid? Does it actually support all android apps natively?
  3 projects | /r/linuxquestions | 17 Nov 2022

  Just for you to know, you can use Wayland under Xorg as well. What prevents me to use it nowadays is the fact it doesn't support webcam, so I'm using Android through QEMU. I made a script for it that passes my webcam. It just works.

• Expose QEMU/libvirt port to LAN?
  1 project | /r/linuxquestions | 13 Nov 2022

  I'm setting up my network every time I start the VM like this using a bridge. My VM is behind the android_bridge0 bridge using NAT. In this case, I don't need to use port forward.

• Is there a way to control the battery level on Android running through QEMU?
  2 projects | /r/linuxquestions | 11 Nov 2022

  I have this script to set up the environment and load my Android VM. It's working perfectly with camera, sound, 3D accel and all, but the battery it's always at its minimum, which some apps refuse to work with.

• How to shorten repetitive parts of a script?
  2 projects | /r/bash | 6 Nov 2022

  Now (I already cut the number of lines in half)

• Weird makedep segmentation fault when './configure'ing Wine source
  5 projects | /r/Gentoo | 6 Nov 2022

  Just bumping the version is the simplest case possible, but sadly, TKG has around 750 patches, and what's going to be applied highly depends on the version and my config. In fact, that's one of the reasons they didn't make an ebuild yet.

• What are your favorite non-GUI/DE customizations?
  3 projects | /r/archlinux | 5 Nov 2022

  I made four so far.(starting wit taskbar_)

• Is there any other widget that prints the output of a command or script besides CommandOutput and Kargos?
  4 projects | /r/kde | 22 Oct 2022
