Re: Google drive chromebook

2018-09-09 Thread Carl Parrish 
I have a Google Pixel Book 2. While I do still carry my MBP around with me
I find I increasingly don't need it. The cloud 9 IDE (
https://aws.amazon.com/cloud9/?p=tile) is pretty good. If you work with VS
Code https://stackblitz.com/ is very close to being all you need. I prefer
Webstorm myself and now can run the Linux version natively on my
pixelbook before I could with Cruton -
https://www.linux.com/learn/how-easily-install-Ubuntu-Chromebook-crouton%20 -
but as long as I have an internet connection and can access AWS or ssh into
my servers there is nothing stopping me from getting real work done from my
Chromebook. I have 64 gb of hard drive space I think if I was going to do
it again I would upgrade to the 128 GB (now that I can run docker on my
Chromebook a bit of hard drive space is nice) but with 3 TB of cloud space
(I think that came with 3 years through Google) I'm not hurting with it as
a laptop at all.

Thanks for the reply.  You saved me hours of fighting with it.

lots of little connections to spread out, not so much a few major blasts.


This is a popular misconception among non-networking folks that simply 
bonding multiple circuits gives your more bandwidth, but entirely not 
the case.  If you need more than 100mb, you 1gb.  If you need more 
than 1gb, you go 10gb, etc. Bonding is more for redundancy than 
throughput imho.

For bonding it is never a good idea to bond different port speeds.

Re: Open Broadcast Software

2018-09-09 Thread Brian Cluff 
I've installed the blackmagic drivers on my machine (kubuntu 18.04) that 
is using the exact same kernel successfully, and without problems


Perhaps the driver is failing the DKMS driver compilation because you 
are missing the kernel headers.


Try doing:

sudo apt install linux-headers-generic

That should allow the drivers to compile successfully.

Hope that helps,
Brian

Did you get errors while installing?  If so, what were they?

Re: Google drive chromebook

2018-09-09 Thread Kevin Fries 
Always remember that a Chromebook is ment to be a connected device.  I use mine 
all the time.  But while it can replace my desktop 70%-80% of the time, there 
are times as a Linux professional where I need a laptop.  So, I still have my 
Arch laptop (for software development because it has better tools than online 
and a bigger screen).  So I try to only store locally what I MUST.  Passwords 
are stored via LastPass so they move between Chromebook and Desktop.  Files are 
stored on Google Drive or Dropbox for the same reason.

There is a local download on your Chromebook, but I would really try not to use 
that for anything that is not ephemeral.  It is how the device was designed to 
be used.
