  • No problem.

    The only reason i know this is because systemd throws degraded warnings because fwupd keeps failing. On several machines. (Because DNS, proxies, VPN, etc.)

    In xfce there’s a panel tool called genmon I use.

    I have 2 specifically for monitoring systemd status

    First is just the status

    systemctl is-system-running

    The other lists the failed units using a script

    #!/bin/sh
    failedd (){ systemctl --failed | grep -o -E "●.{0,35}\<failed" 2>/dev/null }
    echo $(failedd)

    Mint cinnamon has a similar “spice” (panel plugin) that I also use.











  • On my living room setup hooked up to a projector:

    mint xfce
    sff tower
    dual core
    only 3GB ddr2. (One slot fried) 1080p via display port to HDMI 1tb HDD Use 2 VPN. An sshd server Myriad physical issues. Old as fuck BIOS.

    (Was released in 2009 or 2011?)

    Memory is a bit of a pain sometimes. Mostly Firefox needs to be closed and reopened after system sleep.

    I can watch 4 football games in HD with no real issue.

    It is tweaked to high heaven in kernal and configs.

    As long as it can work I will make it work.
