Fix OpenSCAD Dark Theme and other wrong GTK / QT styles on Garuda Linux (probably arch as well)
Super easy fix - first, install qt5ct and do a test openscad launch like this:
```
QT_STYLE_OVERRIDE=qt5ct-style openscad
```
Instead of `qt5ct-style` you can use any of your own installed styles (some examples might be: kvantum-dark, kvantum, Fusion)
Which styles are installed you can check by running `qt5ct` or use kvantum as theme and then choose theme in kvantummanager.
Might work with some other apps GTK/QT apps, too.

Run Satisfactory on Linux (Arch, Garuda, Manjaro)

To properly run Satisfactory on Linux, only one change is needed.

Add this:

[/script/windowstargetplatform.windowstargetsettings]
DefaultGraphicsRHI=DefaultGraphicsRHI_Vulkan

Into the file $HOME/.steam/steam/steamapps/compatdata/526870/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/Local Settings/Application Data/FactoryGame/Saved/Config/WindowsNoEditor/Engine.ini

Run the game from Steam as usual without nay more tweaks.

Nvidia Arch Linux DXVK Debug (run World War Z Aftermatch on Arch Linux with hardware directx/proton acceleration)

Story

I've got some games stopped working on ArchLinux (Garuda) via Steam -> Vulkan/Proton -> DXVK It was hard to debug but finally I did it

Originally I tried to reinstall steam, game, proton, try different versions etc but nothing helped At some point I found out that game launches with PROTON_USE_WINED3D=1 %command% argument in steam game properties However, the performance of the game was really bad and textures was kinda wrong and too dark

So I found out the problem: Nvidia does not like amd vulkan files to be installed.

Convert ZIP with Windows filepaths to Linux (/ instead of \)
# Convert ZIP archive with Windows paths inside it to UNIX paths (backslashes \ to normal slashes / in paths)
# You need 7zip package for that matter
# Archive in this example is called windows.zip -> don't forget to change it in two places
# The script works well even with large files (I tested on 8 GB file; it took couple of seconds)
# Resuling file can be unpacked OK with normal Linux tools
7z rn windows.zip $(7z l windows.zip | grep '\\' | awk '{ print $6, gensub(/\\/, "/", "g", $6); }' | paste -s)

Linux - v4l2-ctl - Load Webcam Settings From Text File (saved by camset)
#!/usr/bin/python
# Back story
# v4l2-cli by itself does not accept config file
# camset allows us to save setting to text file, but it requires GUI to load it, which is inconvinient
# What I've done
# So I've written script that allows us to load settings from the config file, created with camset earlier
# Code is based on Camset (https://github.com/azeam/camset/)
# Run like: `python cliread.py myconfig.txt` (using myconfig.txt saved by camset)
# Change card to fit your video device

Install MRTG into Arch

Let's say you want to install MRTG to Archlinux...

  1. First things first, you need Apache, PHP, PHP-GD, GD library on itself. sudo pacman -S gd autoconf apache php-gd perl
  2. Install development version of GD: pikaur -S gd-git (instead of pikaur you can use yay or any other AUR helper)
  3. Then enable mod_fcgi in Apache: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Apache_HTTP_Server/mod_fcgid

I will not include this in the manual as this is covered by ArchWiki and a lot of articles

  1. After that, you can either follow steps here: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Multi_Router_Traffic_Grapher or here:
  2. Add mrtg user:
