well I guess it cannot run medium sized AI models or something. but also, the question arises what is their price for a mid level phone

did you make these yourself? if not, could you cdo an ls -l /dev/mapper? it shows which name corresponds to which dm device

how did you add grub to the windows bootloader’s menu? I thought microsoft made this impossible, along with adding older windows versions

do you know that use device mapper? what kind of device is /dev/dm-1 ?

“dmsetup info” might help

did you check it /proc/cmdline if the params were taken into account? perhaps you edited the config but didn’t update the initramfs

that’s only the X11 “driver” for it. nouveau is built into the kernel, the way to “uninstall” it is to make it not get loaded, by blacklisting it

but this does not seem to be the problem

what does fit well with the youtube interface though?

oh, that’s right, sorry. it must have changed in recent years.

so I haven’t either found a definitive answer to whether it is a default mount option, but the closest I found is almost it: man mount says to look in man ext4, and there itsays the defaults are determined by the filesystem superblock.

the superblock’s settings can be viewed with tune2fs -l /dev/your_blockdev, and according to the “default mount options” line I indeed have acl enabled by default on all my ext4 filesystems.

so in the end, the default is determined by the tool that makes the filesystem. mkfs.ext4 reads them from /etc/mke2fs.conf if not overridden with an argument. on my system tue acl option is right there in this file.

and that also means that this depends not on your current system, but on the system where the filesystem was created.

that sounds to ge good advice, but I’m pretty sure they would yave done that themselves, if they had a backup.

and, if you read the whole post, you’ll know that they are physically unable to keep a backup.

So does it wait until it has found all the matches to run the command as a giant batch instead of running it as it finds matches?

almost. it runs the command in batches, if you have few enough files it may only run it once. this shouldn’t make it slower, but actually faster.

and yes, linux does not use ACLs by default. on ext4 usage of ACLs is not even enabled by default, but only if you set it up with the right mount option

an exception to that is the initramfs that the bootloader uses. its creator adapts it to your system so that it can be smaller.

hmm I’m not sure, I think that would throw sequential read/write performance out of the window, surely on HDD, maybe even on SSD to an extent. but, such a thing can probably be added with a device mapper device.

That is block based encryption

isn’t all the disk encryption standards supported by cryptsetup are like that? so LUKS1, veracrypt, bitlocker, etc

How does the encryption affect the wear-leveling of the SSD and what should be considered to ensure a safe encryption?

LUKS, or rather Device Mapper for crypto devices does not enable trim by default, you need to enable it separately.

the LUKS wiki also has some general tips, and some for SSDs specifically: https://gitlab.com/cryptsetup/cryptsetup/-/wikis/FrequentlyAskedQuestions

did you check it with VLC, or another player that uses hardware accelerated decoding?

that depends on the driver that directly talks to the gpu. these cards are still cryptographically locked down to stay on low clocks when it is not driven by the official driver
