so I'm trying out distrobox using boxbuddy as a GUI for it...but I assumed isntalled distros worked somewhat like a VM installation with it's own options for desktop enviroment options and such. Is that not the case and distros created through distrobox are terminal only?

they are not VMs

Kyle Gospo•6/12/24, 5:21 PM

and they share your home dir

Kyle Gospo•6/12/24, 5:21 PM

no desktop environment, it's terminal access

Kyle Gospo•6/12/24, 5:21 PM

anything you install can be exported and will appear in your DE

Kyle Gospo•6/12/24, 5:21 PM

like so:

So If cloned a git repo, I could clone it to a location through the distrobox and it would just show up in that location on my actual bazzite intall?

Kyle Gospo•6/12/24, 5:24 PM

yes and yes

Kyle Gospo•6/12/24, 5:25 PM

only folders in distrobox that aren't shared are /usr and /var, and I think /opt

Kyle Gospo•6/12/24, 5:25 PM

they are containers, so you're basically just using the libraries and package manager of that distro

Kyle Gospo•6/12/24, 5:26 PM

so you're not exactly wasting RAM from this either

Cchar I mean no idea why I can tolerate ULMB on VR headsets

char•6/12/24, 5:26 PM

@antheas if you have any idea lmk

char•6/12/24, 5:26 PM

every VR headset has basically BFI but it never affects me

KKyle Gospo yes and yes

RogueLikelyOP•6/12/24, 5:27 PM

So for my needs, I needo git glone a repo, then also intall pytorch, and maybe some requirements withing the repo...I can do all that through a distrobox installation and it'l show up in bazzite and be preserved through updates?

antheas•6/12/24, 5:27 PM

Sounds like venv is enough

Kyle Gospo•6/12/24, 5:29 PM

yes, though as antheas said a venv should be enough for that, can skip the box

Kyle Gospo•6/12/24, 5:29 PM

either way will work and is valid

KKyle Gospo yes, though as antheas said a venv should be enough for that, can skip the box

RogueLikelyOP•6/12/24, 5:29 PM

I have no idea what a venv even is

Kyle Gospo•6/12/24, 5:29 PM

python feature

antheas•6/12/24, 5:30 PM

Although no gcc that's tough maybe distrobox + venv

antheas•6/12/24, 5:30 PM

Hopefully you don't need to debug

KKyle Gospo python feature

RogueLikelyOP•6/12/24, 5:32 PM

So before starting all of this, I installed pytorch nighlty to bazzite. Will that cause any issues itself?

antheas•6/12/24, 5:32 PM

Uh how

antheas•6/12/24, 5:32 PM

Layering?

RogueLikelyOP•6/12/24, 5:33 PM

No I just used the command in terminal to isntall it

antheas•6/12/24, 5:33 PM

It will be somewhere on .local if you pip installed

antheas•6/12/24, 5:33 PM

It's ok but it gets messy after a while

Aantheas It will be somewhere on .local if you pip installed

RogueLikelyOP•6/12/24, 5:34 PM

yes I pip installed it. IF that's bad I see a command to uninstall it too

RogueLikelyOP•6/12/24, 5:35 PM

Should I do that?

Aantheas i need testers for the next hhd ver

if you're on a deck you've never seen it and never will

I need a weird udev addition for my controller to recognized but this disappears between boots. I'm new to the immutable concept, is this possible?

Ah, I see. Guess it's regarding other handhelds?

Kyle Gospo•6/12/24, 5:38 PM

you can either
1: Request the udev rule in ublue-os/config
2: Create an RPM of the rule and layer it

Zelaf•6/12/24, 5:39 PM

Oh wait, the handheld daemon is installed on my Deck, should it be?

Potajito•6/12/24, 5:40 PM

isn't it possible to put the rule in /etc/udev/rules.d/ ?

Kyle Gospo•6/12/24, 5:40 PM

but it's not enabled and does nothing

PPotajito isn't it possible to put the rule in /etc/udev/rules.d/ ?

Kyle Gospo•6/12/24, 5:40 PM

you are correct

Verno•6/12/24, 5:41 PM

Ok thanks Kyle

RogueLikelyOP•6/12/24, 5:47 PM

@Kyle Gospo So I figured out how to make and install pytorch to an venv. Do I need to activate that enviroment and deactivate it every time I want to use something within that directory or will it just work?

dreamyuki•6/12/24, 5:51 PM

or just put the udev rules at /etc/udev/rules.d

Cchar @antheas if you have any idea lmk

I think I might have an idea. Have a read of this article: https://forums.blurbusters.com/viewtopic.php?t=6519
