  1. Upside is that most tiles are still as they were 🙃

    Downside is that I either have to use WiFi to connect my server with the network (and I have to add a WiFi card/USB stick for that) or have to open up the ground myself and dig the tube + cable in myself.

    I have been in the groundwork myself, but adding WiFi will make the server more flexibel in its placement 🤔

  2. on :
    Retried with KVM/Qemu image and actually added the display section to xorg.conf. Now the base system && seem to work, hurray!


  3. Base system install works, but KDE just doesn't want to boot; in both VirtualBox and KVM 😖

    I've gone through all prerequisites and installation of this page: wiki.alpinelinux.org/wiki/KDE

  4. choosing between getting a Raspberry Pi 3B+ or a new case for an ASUS AT3IONT-I DELUXE.

    I did a bit of shopping and found a tiny ITX case for around the same price as a new Raspberry Pi 3B+. The Asus is more performant according to Geekbench 4, but only a tiny amount. But I have no idea how much energy it uses. Its main task will be to serve as an Kodi box, and other odd ends I might want to run continuously. Other SBCs are fine if they fit a Raspberry Pi case.
