Not much point in doing that, just wanted to see if it would work.
Some instructions here.
Flatpak Heroic wouldn’t work, but the one from chaotic-aur works.
I used vm-curator to make the VM. Just edit the raw config, to add the options.
VM_CURATOR_VIDEO_ARGS=(-device virtio-vga-gl,blob=on,hostmem=8G,drm_native_context=on)
Works with the host as Arch Linux, and the guest as Arch Linux.
The mouse has issues though. Might need to change some setting. Or pass the mouse through.
Guess you could keep your main OS super clean if doing that. But Distrobox can be used to do that too.
Even the flash works, in P mode. I did reset it. Not very good inside though, noise at 800 ISO. Zoom is basically the same as my other lens with the teleconverter. 600mm equivalent. Don’t know what my other lens is equivalent.
Finally got one sharp photo at the max zoom. Need to click the AF/AE lock button. Hard to hold it steady half pressing the shutter button.
There’s a school bus on the other side of the river. I can read the license plate in one photo. Sharp enough for me.
If you zoom in past 100%, you’ll regret it though.
Well, now I know how I might be able to not use a tripod with my other camera. The tripod I bought is too short. Have to bend down, to use it in the sun. This sun hat, might result in less sweating on my head as well. Didn’t walk as far though.
Guess I need a zoom lens that does 300mm now, and use that with teleconverter.
Not sure I’ll try the teleconverter with this Panasonic camera. Might make it even harder to get a sharp image without a tripod.
S mode might be the best mode to use, cause it over exposes. Or maybe that’s just haze. That can be removed in RawTherapee.
The sharp school bus photo, has no haze though. 100 ISO 1/400 sec.
What do I need more then 12MP for? I don’t print many if any photos.


I bought that long ago, gave it to my mom. And apparently she doesn’t want it anymore. That’s one way to get something you had in the past back, without rebuying it.
Says it can zoom to 600mm, and my teleconverter, can attach to it directly, without any adapter. It can’t do RAW though. Blow the highlights, and may or may not be fixable with the JPG.
The battery that was dead for who knows how long, is charging.
I remember, I was trying to make the flash not as strong, with a piece of black electrical tape, and then I saw smoke. Then that mode didn’t seem to work. But works on auto I think. Was I trying to use the flash in that other mode? The flash might have issues after the smoke.
Well, don’t need the flash to use outside anyways. And that camera is light too. Might not need a tripod either.

That’s how you see a camera’s LCD in the sun. Now I just need a white beard. Don’t know if any young people wear such a hat. Don’t like baseball caps. Maybe don’t wear that when walking, easy to run into something. The brim can go up though. Then put it down when taking photos.
Otherwise, you might have to look more up in the sky to see.
The high school I went to, got one of those. Seemed like sometime after I clogged the crapper. The person that peed, didn’t clog it. I took a dump before them.
Well, I did that to myself a while back. It’s best to make sure it will flush again. Or wake up with water on the floor. Not sure that’s why water was on the floor last time though. Think the crapper needed surgery. And a new hose.
If your toilet is making more noise then normal, tell management. Or risk a bunch of water getting on the floor.
How much does a power flusher cost? You could really hear that crapper flushing.
I do wonder, how many crappers have I broke in my life?
Bent the pins on my motherboard, for the USB 3.0 header. The USB C header apparently doesn’t work, or I broke that too.
The second full size PCIe slot, can’t be used if two NVMe SSDs are in it. The other PCIe x1 slot, is blocked by the GPU.
So I removed the WiFi/BT card. Don’t really use WiFi on my desktop. Got a USB BT adapter. Same one for my Orange Pi 5. A USB 3.0 PCIe card is in the slot the WiFi/BT card was in.
Just waiting for the first thing I ordered from a seller on eBay to come. Thought I ordered both things at the same time, didn’t. I have the USB gender changer, the card doesn’t have a header. But the first thing I ordered, USB A to header, isn’t here yet for some reason. How long should I wait before sending the seller a message? Not even in town yet. Might be lost.
That’s the risk you take ordering anything online.
Well, these headphones, might be able to mostly block out the subwoofers on wheels, that drive by all day.
TP-Link UB500 Plus, the one with a bigger antenna. The ASUS card is probably better, even bigger antennas.
Apparently, whatever method that uses to reboot an iPhone, causes it to glitch.
Well, if using a Shortcut, you most likely have to unlock the screen. So it’s not automatic.
iPhones really do require a reboot, or it slows down. Apple still hasn’t figured out how to make good software.
Apparently people are still buying phones. The foldable iPhone is a good investment, as folding phones can only be folded so many times. I wonder what the reseal value is on a non folding foldable iPhone? It only costs 2k new. Is there a big market for foldable phones that no longer fold?
Somebody got my debit card info yet again.
A nice $0 charge from Shopify. And I bought nothing online yesterday.
Maybe it’ll get sold to somebody in Japan again, like one of my previous cards.
How many new debit card have I gotten? It’s really annoying having to go to the bank, to get a new card. Getting it mailed is a bad idea. Could get delivered to somebody else. Or somebody could open it, and copy it, and then seal it, and then you have to get a new card shortly after you get it.
My medical supplies, came opened. How did nothing fall out before they put it in my mailbox? Guess whoever did that, didn’t want CPAP supplies.
The new OM-System camera is $1,000 for body only. Would probably take me at least four months to save enough for it.
Might not have a exposure compensation dial either. How many buttons do you have to click to change that then?

Sharp enough for me. An Olympus 40-150mm lens and that teleconverter. Think the newer teleconverters attach to the back. They don’t make one for that lens. Cheaper to buy that old teleconverter, then a new lens. Just needed a step down adapter too.
Also, use a tripod. My camera does have IBIS, but not good enough for me. Also, what is the lens focal length supposed to be with an old teleconverter for the IBIS?
I had to downgrade libcupsfilters to 2.1.1-4. Found a bug report about it here. I have a Brother HL-2140 printer. Using the brlaser driver, but the foomatic probably works too.
I was using Brother HL-2140 Foomatic/hl1250 in openSUSE Slowroll.
Well, the best part of Arch Linux, is newer packages, and your printer might not work anymore.
