UPDATE (11-16-23): Davici Resolve has been recently updated to properly use the pango package properly. So this is no longer an issue! ADDITIONAL CONTEXT: I guess this didn't come across as well as I wanted but we have a NAS that I backup my entire system to, every now and then. I know the ZFS pool has its issues but its way better than a single drive on its own lol
i know the feeling i cant count the number of problems ive ran into on just my steam deck but i figured out most of them eventually and that pain is worth it if i never need to use windows ever again
ZFS is going deep haha. I don't really recommend it on Linux because the integration isn't perfect and sometimes kernel upgrades can get tricky, I prefer BTRFS which has most of the same functionality and comes by default with Linux. ZFS is also exceptionally good at exposing memory instability, so that might have been part of the RAM problem, in fact, ZFS people usually recommend using ECC RAM (since its more likely that RAM will corrupt something than ZFS corrupting itself). On Windows you can setup a mirrored setup using Storage Spaces, but they are absolutely atrocious. Extremely inflexible, delicate and slow. If you want a mirrored setup on Windows please just have a NAS with a dedicated storage solution.
Modern motherboards are buggy and often have RAM related boot issues. Last time it happened to me I eventually fixed it by attempting to boot without any RAM at all and then the next boot with some RAM installed worked.
@@PaV_Live I certainly hope so. Even I had to tackle some weird issues the other day so I can't say its exclusive to a specific distro or anything - computers can be a troll sometimes.
The only issues I know with NTFS on Linux is the fact that Linux struggles to respect the file permissions on that file system which can cause issues. Its a blessing and a curse as sometimes wen recovering data you don't care about permissions you just want the file(s).
@@PaV_Live More often than not though Linux is a less troublesome experience, at least for me. Sure you are going to have problems but what OS is trouble free, especially these days
Arch- great for people that like spending as much time fixing and maintaining things as doing stuff on their PC. Fedora- for people that like doing stuff on their PC.
Honestly, Arch hasn't been that bad to me since this video. Ive spent more time diagnosing RAM and UPS issues than I have Arch issues the past few months or so
Great content but unfortunately pinning a system library isnt a great solution afaik :( and neither is symlinking a lib to an older version. i'd probably look into a more permanent solution if i were you or it may bite you again in the future, maybe not even with Resolve but something else. Resolve would be an excellent candidate for flatpak.
Yeah but unfortunately, there isnt much I can do outside of just waiting for Resolve to get patched. And yeah it would. Dont think its entirely on BlackMagic's radar tho
There is a project ( I haven't tried it myself so I don't know how well it works) called "dacincibox" that is supposed to be a pre-configured environment for Davinci Resolve on linux. It leverages Distrobox which is like a distro, but in a container. I was planning to install kt and see how it works as I wanted to try and learn Davinci myself on the side even just for my own youtube content.

Hey pav have you tried using lightweight Linux distributions like mx Linux on your old pcs and laptops it was a amazing video

I went for TrueNas and uses a NFS mount instead.
@@mrcrackerist yeah, same, I have a several TrueNAS servers since back when it was FreeNAS. Using CIFS shares
I enjoyed this.
its nice to see you again! always happy to see your vids :]

Doom sound effects on the zfs pool part made me laugh.
This is why I don't use arch lol
In all fairness I've had my fair share of weirdness even on Linux Mint. Sorry to hear you've had a rough time of it
eh it's nbd. At least its behind me now. *Hopefully*
@@PaV_Live I certainly hope so. Even I had to tackle some weird issues the other day so I can't say its exclusive to a specific distro or anything - computers can be a troll sometimes.
Hey pav, there actually is a linux ntfs driver. I know this because I had to rip movies to a ntfs disk for my parents.
it's a FUSE file system drvier, the arch package is ntfs-3g

And you wonder why ya haven’t been able to convince me to switch to Linux yet…
Lmao. Gotta remember I'm on the deep end of Linux. Any sane person wouldn't put up with half the shit I do
@@PaV_Live PaV buddy do I look any more sane than you?
More sane than me lol

You should prob try a new OS. Might i recommend Windows? Its CLEARLY superior
Haha good one :)
We could give him MacOS or Temple OS that should be a good experience for him
@@warthunder1969I recommend OS/2 Warp
