  • I think something else may be wrong if it breaks for 20 minutes.

    When I originally setup my PiHole many, many, many months ago when I was still learning the Docker engine I had little to no issue.

    I don’t know what caused it either being a power-outage or network loss but ever since I’ve been experiencing DNS related issues (I suspect it’s NTP not syncing), some days I’ll wake up before work realizing “oh shit I have no internet access” frantically trying to fix the issue.

    I think i might take the advice of other commenters here and host two PiHole servers on separate devices/stacks, just got to hope my router supports it.




  • I could be wrong but I feel like I’ve seen

    AE_AML_INVALID_RESOURCE_TYPE

    Before,

    Now take what I say with a grain of salt because in my experience 9 times out of 10 drives not mounting properly stop the system from booting, if you have multiple drives connected to your pc that automatically mount and you’re familiar with your /etc/fstab I would suggest disabling auto-mount to any drive that isn’t your boot drive and try again.








  • Basically Linux mint or bazzite is the system and how it’s organized while plasma is how I’m seeing that system represented and interacting with it in other words?

    Yup, seems like you got the gist of it!

    Obviously once you start reading documents on software you’ll start to understand it all better. Suggest reading into the Docker engine for self-hosting software on your network!


  • how does plasma and Debian fit in cus that stuff is ringing a bell.

    Distributions like Ubuntu, Kali Linux, Linux Mint are actually based off of Debian however, each distribution provides their own packages and typically have system files in different places, so packages made for Ubuntu may or may not work with Debian and vice-versa.

    Like plasma being separate than a distro

    KDE Plasma is a Desktop Environment (aka your desktop). When you install a Linux distro on your computer you’ll typically be given an option on which software you want to pre install. You’ll see software like GNOME, KDE Plasma, Xfce, Cinnamon, etc and by doing a little research into them you can pick the environment that suites you best.

    GNOME gave me MacOS vibes while KDE is more Windows.

    Edit; I should’ve mentioned you can choose to go headless without a GUI and only run the shell which saves a lot of resources.

    Hope this explains things easily!

    The only thing I had to work around was downloading the deb build of Discord Canary to enable audio output in Discord streams since it was only recently added to Discord’s dev/beta build (Canary).

    Keep in mind Linux is all about FOSS, if the software you use doesn’t have all the features you want look around for alternatives.

    I encountered this same issue when installing Discord and opted to use Vencord instead.
