Using GNU Stow to manage your dotfiles

Fonte: http://brandon.invergo.net/news/2012-05-26-using-gnu-stow-to-manage-your-dotfiles.html?round=two

I accidentally stumbled upon something yesterday that I felt like sharing, which fell squarely into the "why the hell didn't I know about this before?" category. In this post, I'll describe how to manage the various configuration files in your GNU/Linux home directory (aka "dotfiles" like .bashrc) using GNU Stow.

The difficulty is that it would be helpful to manage one's configuration files with a version control system like Git, Mercurial or Bazaar, but many/most dotfiles reside at the top-level of your home directory, where it wouldn't be a good idea to initialize a VCS repository. Over time I've come across various programs which aim to manage this for you by keeping all the files in a subdirectory and then installing or linking them into their appropriate places. None of those programs ever really appealed to me. They would require a ton of dependencies (like Ruby and a ton of libraries for it) or t

Wifi configuration on archlinux ARM

Fonte: http://raspberrypi.stackexchange.com/questions/7987/wifi-configuration-on-arch-linux-arm

The deprecated netcfg used /etc/network.d/ to store profiles. The successor of netcfg is netctl.

In order to setup a wireless network, install netctl using sudo pacman -S netctl. Next, you have to create a network profile. /etc/netctl/examples/ contains some examples. Let's assume you want to setup a WPA2-PSK network. Simply copy over the example file and start editing:

/etc/netctl# install -m640 examples/wireless-wpa wireless-home
/etc/netctl# cat wireless-home
Description='A simple WPA encrypted wireless connection'

Unreal 5.4 and Rider Compilation Issue Fix

If unreal 5.4 is not compiling on rider and returning Unhandled exception: System.ArgumentNullException: Value cannot be null. (Parameter 'element'), try this solution by Sam_Swain.

Source: https://forums.unrealengine.com/t/ubt-bug-no-longer-able-to-compile-plugins-in-standalone-since-5-3/1318659/11

Hacking around I managed to both a) identify the problem plugins, and b) make the build tool immune to this crash.

  1. Open C:\Program Files\Epic Games\UE_5.4\Engine\Source\Programs\UnrealBuildTool\UnrealBuildTool.sln in Visual Studio
  2. Make Configuration/ModuleRules.cs writable

SSH keys on a Yubikey in a Mac

Software Stuff

  • Install the YubiKey Manager CLI (ykman); alternative installation options can be found here: brew install ykman

  • Install GPG >= 2.1. Version 2.1 simplified the running of gpg-agent. The version isn’t a hard requirement, but it might make your life easier.
