Ah sorry man. I didn’t spot it.
Ah sorry man. I didn’t spot it.
Currently running NixOS with Debian and Arch containers in distrobox. Certain apps in NixOS (e.g. Calibre) don’t respect the scaling in Gnome, but work perfectly via distrobox. Btw, there’s a nice GUI for distrobox called Boxbuddy that works really well.
I have one of these but I keep forgetting to use it.
I’m not that tech savvy, and iDrive is cheap 🤣
Yeah I think it works on Fedora ok. I spoke to customer service, but they told me I was out of luck with Nixos.
Oh cool. For some bizarre reason iDrive ask you to email them to get the link for the scripts. But you can get them here: https://www.idrive.com/online-backup-linux-download So just download the scripts, install Distrobox, and pull the Debian 12 image. Then enter the Distrobox Debian and navigate to the scripts. Change the permissions (chmod a+x *.pl) and execute the account_settings.pl script. I think I got an error about perl, but I just installed it myself (sudo apt install perl) and carried on. I think I might have had another error at some point but I just ran it again and it all pulled through properly. And now my Distrobox is on my iDrive dashboard and everything works properly. Just remember that if you reboot you might need to go back into the Distrobox and execute account_settings.pl again, but because everything’s already installed it will just ask you to login, and that’s it - you’re back online. Good luck!
Yeah, the personal backup and sync. Sorry, I didn’t think to make it clear.
The scripts are loooooooong. And the main problem for me is that Nixos doesn’t use the FHS, so it’s difficult to use standard .deb files.
I didn’t look much into this. I think (but could very well be wrong) that it only works with their S3/E2 packages. And I wanted all the config options provided by the official scripts.
Thanks to you I have today discovered Kavita. It’s excellent!
Doesn’t Gnome 45 have improved scaling (haven’t tried it yet)?
Freetube = seriously good.
Tillix is the way.
