 Headless Raspberry Pi set up: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9fEnvDgxwbI curl -fsSL https://pkgs.tailscale.com/stable/debian/trixie.noarmor.gpg | sudo tee /usr/share/keyrings/tailscale-archive-keyring.gpg >/dev/null echo 'deb [signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/tailscale-archive-keyring.gpg] https://pkgs.tailscale.com/stable/debian trixie main' | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/tailscale.list sudo tailscale up --ssh  sudo pacman -S wakeonlan  Making Wake-on-LAN (WOL) Persistent on Arch Linux By default, the ethtool setting for Wake-on-LAN does not persist across reboots on most Linux systems. To make Wake-on: g permanent for your network interface ( enp69s0 ), you have several reliable options: 1. Using a systemd Service Create a custom systemd service that sets WOL after the network interface is up: Create the service file /etc/systemd/system/wol@.service with the following content: text [Unit] Description=Enable Wake-on-LAN for %i Requires=network.target Afte...

  Many of the steps in setting up Fedora are the same as I do for Arch.  My preferred install is Fedora Rawhide.  You are better off with the default "Gnome" desktop than trying the KDE spin (seems to be the best integrated experience with few/no hardware/GPU issues). Helpful notes to me: Initial "get started" installs: sudo dnf in R bat btrfs-assistant cmake duf fastfetch fish fontawesome-fonts-all freetype-devel fribidi-devel gnome-extensions-app gnome-tweaks htop inxi java-latest-openjdk-devel jetbrains-mono-fonts kitty kmymoney lftp libcurl-devel libjpeg-turbo-devel libpng-devel libtiff-devel llvm-devel meson micro onedrive python3-colorama python3-ipykernel python3-pip python3-pyquery sqlitebrowser tcl8-devel tk8-devel typescript xsane zsh Snapper: do rollback: Use sudo snapper ls to list all available snapshots and their corresponding numbers. Note the number of the snapshot you want to revert to. Open a terminal and use the following command: sudo snapper ro...
