Not brush, but flexible gromit strips will do the edge protection bit.
Then, dunno, postbox / door draught excluder brushes?
Ah, Ok, yeah Arch on ARM is struggling at the moment
I have / had some Ras Pis on it, but they wrapped up … Pi0? a while back, so had to look at Raspbian (or whatever it’s called now)… I’d not considered Gentoo for them… hmmm
Maybe I’ll check that out
Thanks
Interested in why you went back to Gentoo after Arch.
I use Arch (btw) and tried Gentoo back in the day, but it’s always in the back of my mind that compiling source could be “better”…?
Take a backup and go for it.
Personally, I ditched OMV for standard Arch Linux and just added the packages I wanted…

This was great… great find and genius idea.
I think you’ve read me wrong there.
First up, I presume you searched for other posts like this one? If not, a pinned post might’ve made that easier for you to get started (ie Mint)
Second, the pinned post doesn’t become a final answer, it’s a starting point to add to the discussion, (ie you tried Mint, but didn’t like X, Y & Z)
From my pov there are a lot of posts asking this same question and this was simply a reflection on how we could improve the community… and your experience.
~1600 hours uptime… no rebooting after patching?
You… you do patch your web server… don’t you…?
But, a good blog… must give my BIOSes a good looking at and see if I can change some of mine
LoL… looks like a EULA in Uppercase
Much prefer that you do your stuff the way you want, and lowercase makes it feel like it’s hand written
Man, we need to be able to pin some posts and answer these quesrions once.
I’m not saying there’s a single answer (I use Arch btw), but if we could just group all these Q&As in 1 post…
Nice
Or… just return the laptop?
Then purchase basically anything else
I’m surprised though, I thought Asus wouldn’t be a company to do something like that.
MythTV for the main storage, stored in folders by my genre.
All metadata updated via Picard.
Syncthing to replicate to a Raspberry Pi (2 or 3, I don’t recall which) running Volumio with a DAC board to connect speakers to.
The Pi is in the bedroom, so I only replicate the genres that I want, which cuts down on storage needed on the Pi, and means I don’t need MythTv / NAS / etc. powered over night.
I was going to query why fork instead of just maintaining, but after reading theose comments I see the problem.
So, ok, I need to start shifting packages…
Thanks for the CoMaps pointer, didn’t know about that / issues with Organic Maps
MythTV - as others have already mentioned. It’s designed to work with the 10’ interface
Even records TV programs (presuming you have tuner hardware of course) - which I don’t think the others can do?
We don’t stream Netflix, but we do watch other various streams (ie BBC iPlayer), yoochoob, etc - all works fine, inc… video files from various sources, and music…
We use it with a Logitech K400 wireless keyboard and it works great for us.
I have played with a more traditional looking TV wand remote in the past, but you still need a keyboard to type in program websites, names, etc. so the K400 became our defacto remote.
MythTV used to come with Ubuntu as Mythbuntu back in the day, but most of the pre-installed distros have fallen away, so you’d need to pick a distro and install it yourself.
It’s a very mature application, so you won’t need to keep updating every time you want to watch anything.
Yes. And No.
I have a home made (arch btw) NAS that stores all our files - mostly via syncthing, even from remote family.
That was it.
Then I installed Immich so that we could see the photos… so… it’s technically just a NAS, but it does now have a web application running on it…
Videos & Music are on a completely separate MythTV box which existed before the NAS - I saw no point in moving ~3TB of data to a separate box that would need to be powered when I want to watch / listen to something… my NAS powers itself up & down throughout the day to save electricity (and it was interesting to learn how to make it know when it was / wasn’t being used)
If you’re able to, use GeoIP ranges to only allow access from the countries you want.
That immediately limits a lot of everything
Then - again if you’re able to - use a block list that covers known scrapers in case they’re in your country.
I use pfBlockerNG on my pfSense firewall for exactly this.
