So, I of course rebooted everything i could, the box hosting my DNS/PiHole, VPN, docker box, etc. However, was remote and couldn't reboot my modem.

I lowered my MTU on my VPN client config after rebooting my modem, and it's working.

I don't fully understand why it worked, but it did.

Maybe something on my ISPs end that wasn't functioning.

I turned on query logging for my PiHole. I chose a random site I don't typically browse, and confirmed I saw it logged in my PiHole. Though, I am thinking it's likely DNS that's causing issues.

I even tried turning off split tunneling, and it does the same thing.

I checked automatic DNS setting on my phone.


I don't know if it will make a difference but the DNS records for my local services are CNAME records, so I am going to change it to an A/AAAA record on PiHole.

I have these set in PiHole and not my Unbound.

DNS leak test comes back the same mobile data with VPN as it does WiFi with VPN pointing back to DNS reflecting my upstream DNS, Quad9.

Wish I knew how to test/troubleshoot this.

[–] Hellmo_Luciferrari@lemm.ee 2 points 9 hours ago

That's what I was thinking. Thank you

Absolutely, I can connect to the services via IP:Port

[–] Hellmo_Luciferrari@lemm.ee 1 points 9 hours ago (11 children)

I have DNS handled by my PiHole (using unbound as-can upstream DNS)

On my PiHole, I have an A record for the docker box, and then CNAME records pointing to the A name record.


It makes little sense why it works on an offsite WiFi, but not mobile data.

 

Hello Selfhosted!

So I have an interesting issue. I have a docker host, and that host i have a Caddy container. I have that setup to handle reverse proxying. I have it setup to be local only. I have a pihole and a wireguard server. And can connect to my network successfully.

The part that confuses me is that while on network everything works great. While on VPN I can connect to services by IP:Port. If I use mobile data with VPN, I can't use the site addresses. x.domain.xxx (for privacy sake I'm leaving my domain out of the post.) But when I connect to WiFi, any WiFi, and connect to VPN I can go to the address I have setup for reverse proxying.

I am unsure how to troubleshoot this. Any pointers would be appreciated.

I'd have my other device with LineageOS for that among other reasons!

That's good to hear! My only holdout is that it's only 4g. So I may hold off. But I really want to test a Linux phone.

[–] Hellmo_Luciferrari@lemm.ee 1 points 1 week ago (4 children)

I am investigating nabbing a OnePlus 6T for testing PostmarketOS. Anyone have any experience with it?

 

Please feel free to remove my post if it doesn't meet requirements or breaks rules.

I am trying to pass Device and Strong integrity on my rooted phone.

Currently I have PIF, Trickystore (minus an unrevoked keybox.xml which I can't seem to source), Zygisk Next, Shamiko, and a few other modules for various things.

I don't use lsposed.

Any suggestions or help?

I switched to Fennec.

I wasn't trying to be short or condescending either. Just relaying what I know.

It is another layer of privacy in some cases. Could protect against poisoning of I'm not mistaken, but don't quote me.

I know for me, I prefer to self host things where I can so I can own as much of my own data as possible.

 

Hello Arch Linux peeps,

I was browsing the Arch wiki and was re-reading the Nvidia sextion, and for my 3090 it states I should be using Nvidia-open/nvidia-open-dkms, however, I am using the proprietary ones.

What is best practice for switching to Nvidia-open-dkms?

 

Well, wasn't expecting this...

I rebooted my laptop, and it keeps booting to the grub shell.

I was going to arch-chroot into it and update grub, and rebuild intarimfs, however, I guess I don't know how to with BTRFS subvolumes that are LUKS encrypted.

I would appreciate any help, and am willing to learn.

I could even jump on a call of some kind if anyone has time to help...


Arch

BTRFS encrypted with LUKS (No LVM)

GRUB


I live booted into the live usb

cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/nvme0n1p2 arch
mount /dev/mapper/arch /mnt
arch-chroot /mnt

Output:

mount: /mnt/proc: mount point does not exist
dmesg(1) may have more information after failed mount system call.
=> ERROR: failed to setup chroot /mnt

So I browsed /mnt and it lists subvolumes. However, I am not sure how to go about arch-chrooting into this.

 

Hello everyone,

Back again with more questions maybe you all could help with.

So currently I am running Arch with BTRFS, and for a few specific programs that aren't all that graphically intensive (Specifically Line 6 applications for my Helix and PowerAmp) and the Windows VM I am running through QEMU is using qcow2 for the disk. I do have another Gen 4 NVME that is unused in my system I could use for the VM itself.

How much of a performance gain would I notice using a separate NVME for my Windows VM over qcow2?

So not sure where else to ask, maybe someone here knows?

I am using Heroic Launcher to play Control which I own through GOG.

There are a few mods I wanted to add to the game:

The first mod is a requirement for the next 3.


So the first mod for Windows I would need to add the DLL to where the game is installed. This is where I run into issues. I did that, put the DLL in the games install directory, however it is not loading the DLL.

I investigated using Winetricks GUI from Heroic Launcher to see if there was a way to add a DLL and register it. However, it doesn't give me an option to install a custom DLL.

All of my searching has not lead me to see how I could register the DLL for my Control Prefix.


I could be going about this all wrong, so if anyone has any tips or suggestions I would very much appreciate it.

Thank you!

 

So I switched to Arch full time last month, and that got me thinking: How do I update the firmware of my devices?

I know about fwupd, however from my understanding not all vendors support linux.

In this case, I have an Asus motherboard, and after brief searching I seemed to come across results that would point that Asus isn't one of the manufacturers who support firmware updates from linux.

That being said, how do you all update your firmware if you know the vendor doesn't support linux?


I can't imagine that I could update the firmware from QEMU, and nor do I want to try. I don't want to have windows installed on my system at all. So then I thought, can I go about this via Windows to Go? And that is the solution I am going to investigate trying...

Hi all!

So I want to get back into self hosting, but every time I have stopped is because I have lack of documentation to fix things that break. So I pose a question, how do you all go about keeping your setup documented? What programs do you use?

I have leaning towards open source software, so things like OneNote, or anything Microsoft are out of the question.


Edit: I didn't want to add another post and annoy people, but had another inquiry:

What ReverseProxy do you use? I plan to run a bunch of services from docker, and would like to be able to reserve an IP:Port to something like service.mylocaldomain.lan

I already have Unbound setup on my PiHole, so I have the ability to set DNS records internally.

Bonus points if whatever ReverseProxy setup can accomplish SSL cert automation.

Not a stranger to using linux, but never bothered with keeping things synchronized between devices.

I have a laptop, and a desktop both running Arch (I use Arch BTW) and wanted to investigate the best way to synchronize things from device to device. Just to outline some details, both are running KDE on Wayland, both BTRFS, as well as a number of other similarities such as username.

I want to be able to synchronize certain config files, Documents and Files, and was going to go the Syncthing route.

What are you doing, or what would you recommend to setup in order to have parity between two devices?

 

So, I finally ditched Windows... All except for my need for a VM to use some hardware that aren't supported in Windows.

I setup a Virtual Machine with Virt-Manager for a Windows VM but the network traffic is being blocked by UFW. If I disable UFW the Windows VM can pull an IP, which is static as is, and even after turning UFW back on, the network traffic is still allowed.

I am in need of some help with networking for the VM.

<interface type="network">
  <mac address="52:54:00:d7:8f:48"/>
  <source network="default" portid="d7ff3b1f-2c9b-4a62-b9e0-180855f14de7" bridge="virbr0"/>
  <target dev="vnet2"/>
  <model type="e1000e"/>
  <link state="up"/>
  <alias name="net0"/>
  <address type="pci" domain="0x0000" bus="0x01" slot="0x00" function="0x0"/>
</interface>

This is the networking setup within Virt-Manager.

Any advice for getting network access on the VM?

I am having issues with Mangohud and Goverlay.

Upon opening Goverlay it gives a black box and has issues closing without forcing it shutdown.

https://ibb.co/pnzKZdd

OS: Arch Linux x86_64 Kernel: Linux 6.9.5-zen1-1-zen DE: KDE Plasma 6.0.5 WM: KWin (Wayland) CPU: 12th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-12700KF (20) @ 5.00 GHz GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 [Discrete] Memory: 4.09 GiB / 62.60 GiB (7%)

I have tried uninstalling both Goverlay and Mangohud

I have also removed .conf files from: ~/.config/MangoHud /usr/share/doc/mangohud

Is there more that I need to do to clean uninstall and reinstall?

Any help would be appreciated
