Folder Permissions Issue

Reply in thread

I have figured out that I was even further confused. When I went into the disks program to figure out what type of partition was on the drive I realized the drive isn't really at media/RVAtom/SSD it is at mnt/SSD. That makes a little more sense, as I was confused a couple of days ago that it seemed to be in media without me remembering.

Running ls -l on the correct drive gives: rvatom@rvatom-mint-PC:/mnt$ ls -l total 4 drwxr-x---+ 6 rvatom rvatom 4096 Dec 18 22:00 SSD

Under the disks tool I have gone into mount options and checked "mount at system startup". The drive type is Ext4 I believe. I'm going to try a few more reboots but it seems like Jellyfin is willing to look at this drive now. We may have success.

How to get lights to turn on when we enter a room?

I have never used Feit lights with Home Assistant, but yes, my bedroom lights turn on when it senses motion. That automation disables when my living room lights are off (assuming we turn them off at bedtime) or when my phone plugs in to charge (which I do at bedtime). I use a motion sensor by Phillips Hue, and it integrates directly with the Home Assistant Yellow thru its Zigbee radio without an additional hub.

Thank you so much for your help! I went to that folder and the migrations.xml was a blank file, but system.xml was still okay.

I searched a little about the migrations.xml and found a thread on the jellyfin forum with exactly the same problem so I renamed all of the xml files in the /etc/jellyfin folder and it started back up nicely.

First SF Giants at-bats ruined by Netflix’s aggressive ad insertion

This crap drives me crazy. Every game I watched last summer on MLB.tv had it going on.

I really enjoy baseball but am overwhelmed by a sense that the owners are just greedy assholes who want to milk their fans for every possible penny. These ads cheapen baseball and remind me of that fact the whole time.

Occasionally you could even lose the pitch as it passed the right(wrong?) places in those digital adds.

I'd like to see MLB mocked by other leagues for this crap.

Hardware Acceleration in Linux in Proxmox

Reply in thread

So this definitely seems like the guide that helped the most. I spent more hours than I would like to admit working on this over this weekend.

I am trying to figure out if I have a way to do what I want to here. When it was all said and done I could no longer log into the remote computer I was using to run my Jellyfin server. I have been messing around a little bit using a Linux PC with that, and enjoyed that aspect of things, but it seems like once you get hardware acceleration going, you cannot see the desktop anymore. There were several warnings about this so I wasn't entirely surprised when it happened.

I think I am going to end up needing to get rid of the proxmox part, and just run Linux directly on the computer if I want to do this, and remote into it. It is currently not hooked up to a monitor and is actually on top of my kitchen cabinets out of the way. It was a fun challenge and I learned a lot I think.

How many KM/Miles you run this week?

21 miles this week. I had to cut my 10 mile run short yesterday because it was just too hot. It was 85°F when I left for my run in the early afternoon sun. Not a real smart move, but I thought it wouldn't be so bad based on the season.

Running a half in a few weeks and wishing I had run a bit more over the last month.
