There was a LOT of Linux today. I dusted off my old gaming laptop and upgraded it from Manjaro 20 to 24, and spun up the ArchLinux VM for the GMod servers. I should have them up and running tomorrow evening if everything goes according to plan for the servers, and the laptop is pretty much done. Tomorrow I’ll work on the Samba shares and port forwarding, something to do to keep my mind off other things.
ArchLinux
Everything’s Archy
Distro hopping has been successful! I’ll probably have the server up tomorrow, just need to go over networking and firewall permissions. The servers passed testing locally, no missing dependencies. If this is successful I’ll move my GMod VM’s over to Arch Linux as well, but I’ll probably stick to Alma Linux for Quake 3 and webservers. The Valve stuff needs newer dependencies and libraries, which are harder to obtain under RHEL distros.
I’ll get started up on it again tomorrow after getting some rest, if I do it now I’ll probably fuck something up. I can only look at a terminal for so long before going cross-eye’d.
