    Klar funzt es.

    Aber hat auch Nachteile.

    Ist langsamer als ein installiertes.
    Du musst Dich selber um Updates kümmern.

    Wenn du #Debian nutzt, sollte man besser #backports nutzen.

    Hilft Dir aber in deinem Fall gerade nicht.

  2. For all the little guys who want to have their infrastructure under control, I would like to inform you that I took the trouble to compile the Zabbix installation packages for the 32-bit #ARM, i.e. for the Raspberry PI2

    No one will probably use the Zabbix server on such weak hardware, but the Zabbix proxy works on my RPi2 with 1Gb of ram without any problems, so I can imagine that it could work for someone else too.

    So if you need to monitor, like me, a /26 network and don't want to dedicate a gluttonous old PC to it or speculate on which virtual machine to use, reach for your good old Raspberry and give it a new purpose and life.

    Configuration for Ansible Role:

    zabbix_version: 8.0

    zabbix_repo_deb_url: repo.vitexsoftware.com/

    zabbix_repo_deb_gpg_key_url: repo.vitexsoftware.com/KEY.gpg

    zabbix_repo_deb_component: 'backports'

    zabbix_repo_deb_include_deb_src: false

    #Zabbix 8.0 packages for #Debian 13 #Trixie #armhf

    repo.vitexsoftware.cz/pool/bac

    #RaspberryPi #Arm32 #Backports

  3. Auch so ein typisches #Linux-Ding: #Kernel und #nvidia-Module neu kompilieren, #backports anpassen und die ganze #Konfiguration abgrasen, bevor man mal daran denkt zu gucken, ob die Kinder am Monitor-Kabel gepult haben...

    Was soll ich sagen, so eine IT-Professur zu haben schadet manchmal mehr als sie nützt 😅 :facepalm:

  4. On #Debian 13 #Trixie Problem:

    vitex@krax:~/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/common/Rise of the Tomb Raider$ ./RiseOfTheTombRaider.sh

    === ERROR - You're missing vital libraries to run Rise of the Tomb Raider
    === Either use the steam runtime or install these using your package manager libgconf-2.so.4 => not found
    === /home/vitex/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/common/Rise of the Tomb Raider/bin/RiseOfTheTombRaider: error while loading shared libraries: libgconf-2.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

    Solution:

    cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/vitexsoftware.sources

    Types: deb
    URIs: repo.vitexsoftware.com/
    Suites: trixie
    Components: backports
    Signed-By: /usr/share/keyrings/multiflexi-archive-keyring.gpg

    -----------
    sudo apt update
    sudo apt install libgconf

  5. As an aside, LMDE (Debian) works just fine for me for #gaming. #RetroArch runs great, there are no issues with Feral #Gamemode or #SELinux issues (unlike my most recent tests with Fedora or openSUSE), I use #flatpaks so my gaming applications come with their own updated mesa and other drivers, and if I need a newer kernel I could always hit up #backports. And nvidia sucks so I wouldn't bother with them anyway.

    If I really needed to I could always run #testing or #unstable.

  6. While we all wait for the images to build and be tested and while the archive continues to be prepared so work on #forky can start (and #backports for #trixie can be done), how about some statistics?

    Not the usual boring stuff like #package #numbers (MANY - 70753 binary packages from 34735 #source packages) or architecture space (lots, multiple hundred gigabytes per architecture), can find that in enough places.

    How about this? The main #archive now has 54 suites (stable, testing, stable-backports, unstable but also the NEW queue are all suites). They all have 3 or 4 components (main, contrib, non-free, non-free-firmware) and can contain up to 19 different architectures (#trixie has 9 of them). Those suites are split over 9 archives - the public ones are those you see in the #Debian mirrors as different parts of them, others are purely internal functionality (NEW queue, buildd for example).

    Curious for the #security archive? That has 17 suites in 5 archives.

  7. Бобер который смог: бекпорт Golang на Windows 7

    После того как нам удалось сделать это с Node.js , занялись поиском следующей жертвы, которой после недолгих раздумий стал компилятор Go . Полгода жестоких экспериментов и удивительный результат.

  8. Any web developers here who can make fasttrack.debian.net web page responsive ? #askfedi #debian #freesoftware

    Debian Fast Track is a repository that allows making “backports” of packages available to users of the stable distribution, if those packages cannot be maintained in testing and backported in the usual way.

    This service was started originally to provide #gitlab packages and now include other software like #VirtualBox. Hosting sponsored by #Infomaniak
