Next I run #syncthing on my laptop, and on my #homelab #intelN100 #n100 mini pc / server that runs in the cupboard and is very #lowpower I run #proxmox and this also has a #samba share which allows any other network devices to see the media.
With syncthing running, I always have two copies of the media, but for backup I was using #rclone to send an encrypted copy to #googledrive - which I am in the process of switching over to #nextcloud running on #hetzner

Fai un tempo pedín por aquí consello sobre que hardware adoitades empregar a xente que tedes aplicacións #SelfHosted.
Acabei chegando a conclusión de que un mini-PC #N100 podía ser boa opción.
Xa o teño comigo dende fai un tempo. Metinlle un #Debian e agora xórdeme outra dúbida: para despregar aplicacións en Docker, empregades #Docker ou por #Podman ?
Polo que leín Podman é máis seguro ao non depender de root, pero tamén parece ser que pode dar problemas con algúns temas. :blobthinking:
After bringing the new server (#CowServer) online, joined it to the existing to make a #Proxmox cluster, then remembered something...
Couldn't really turn it off, the cluster would lose quorum. Well, can set a machine to two votes, 'two_node' to on, it does work that way.
But not well, been down this road before ;P
Added a cheap little #N100 box from Beelink as a third node - good for that critical third vote, and unlike a qdevice, can also run some little things (pihole's).
Just installed #frigate on a #N100 to try it, there is this BI server that is giving me headaches.
A bit daunting at first as I was not familiar with docker so you have to learn both as the frigate documentation is not a command by command guide.
Still, I found it quite easy to push through things.
Tested one cam with no #coral => 150% CPU
Added coral + 2 other cams + recording for all 3 = 18% CPU and load average of 0.69, 7-8W
And that is without optimizing the camera streams, SHM.
Sweet.
#N100 って今そんなに高いんですか?

Curious if others are experiencing #instability with #AMD processors or #GPU on #Linux or if this is #AlpineLinux specific. Opened an additional ticket that is focused on the AMD specific issue, since the last one appears it may have been generalized to the linux kernel overall. I do not see the same behavior on an #Intel #N100. https://gitlab.alpinelinux.org/alpine/aports/-/issues/16920 #bsod
2025 war doch jetzt wirklich das Jahr des Linux-Desktops, oder? Also, diesmal echt jetzt, gell?
(wieso ist die Grafik meines Alder-Lake-Intel-CPU-Grafik-Laptops so unbeschleunigt?)
OK I've got #Fedora 41 running on the cheap-o #N100 mini PC. It's been quite a long time since I last ran #Linux as a desktop OS. So far, so good. Fedora has come a long way.
This is my first time using #flatpak and it's pretty cool!
I'm going to have to more methodically figure out what I need a #Mac for and see how to translate it to Linux.

While ordering an SFP+ DAC, Amazon brought this funky little box to my attention - bare-bone, no RAM, 235€, delivery (in DE) in March.
It's the 1st #N100 box with dual 10G SFP+ cages, i've ever seen - #Intel X520/82599ES.
Also, 2x i226V 2.5G ports.
It doesn't have internal redundant storage - only 1 M.2 socket (likely Gen3 x1).
But it's got a 10g USB-A port - i've been running #ZFS over USB-5g for ~1 year, no worries.
It's called "MNBOXCONET Mini PC N100 Firewall 2x10GbE SFP+..."
I have an Intel #N100 board from Chinese "brand" KingnovyPC. It used to work well, but now, when power is unplugged, it forgets date/time and also #EFI variables. So on power-up, it boots into the BIOS setup, and I have to boot from a rescue Linux USB stick to re-write the EFI vars to boot from NVMe again... until the next power down.
The CMOS battery is dead, which explains the date/time problem, but did they REALLY also store EFI vars in CMOS-RAM, or is my hypothesis wrong?
Обзор BKHD N100 NAS — Лучшая материнская плата для домашнего NAS
Для этого обзора я приобрёл плату BKHD-1264-NAS, которая широко известна в узких кругах строителей NAS и обладателей домашних лаб. Плата интересна наличием шести SATA портов, четырьмя портами 2.5GbE на чипах Intel i226-V, а также современным и энергоэффективным процессором Intel N100 — и всё это в компактном формате Mini ITX! Её подробный обзор можно почитать далее в статье.

#RaspberryPi が2万円超えるなら #Intel #N100 を使った方がいいんじゃね?というコメントにRaspberry Pi過激派がN100 PCで殴りつける (拡大解釈) みたいなことを言っておりますが、純粋にRaspberry Pi 5ってRaspberry Piらしさが失われつつあるように感じている (値段よりもGPIOを叩ける速さについて)
Moved my #Jellyfin install to a fresh install on my #N100 machine.Works perfectly and #transcoding works well enough for 3 concurrent streams/transcodes.
I have now offloaded all VMs and Containers from my older #Proxmox server.
2025 will be my #YearOfMiniPCs I'm guessing!
All VMs started up and worked 100%.. except for my #Jellyfin VM.
In the older server I have a #Nvidia card to assist with transcoding since the #Xeon #CPU didn't do a good job of it.
Testing things out now to see if I can run it without said graphics card or if I need to use my other #MiniPC that has the #N100 CPU instead.
