I'm putting this out in the ether, perhaps someone knows someone.

I just want to go back to the before time. When ScreenConnect absolutely just worked. No problems. Install the agent, connect to the machine, that's it. No code signing. No cloud hosted version. Install on any server (Linux included) and it just works.

Maybe someone from Elsinore is floating around here and remembers they have the source to a very old version? C'mon, you know that old Dell laptop that's been sitting in your closet for 10 years has something interesting on it.

Wishful thinking?

This hasn't happened before. I like to shut down some of my VMs when they aren't being used, and when I went to fire it back up I got this.

Sad face.

The version before 26.2.4.9623 broke this functionality for me. Upgrading to 26.2.4.9623 didn't resolve it, and now upgrading to 26.3.6.9629 changed the game. I still can't update agents, but when I try and build a new one I get a download .exe/.msi with some HTML in it.

Relevant portion:

<h1>Something went wrong</h1>

<p>The page could not be loaded.<br>Try again in a moment. If the problem continues, contact ScreenConnect support.</p>

So, instead of performing whatever magic it does to set up and installer, it's just pushing the error page into the downloadable.

I've got a Framework desktop with 128G unified ram, plus a 5060 with 16G vram in an eGPU. For general open-webui stuff it's fine. Slow, but fine. For tool use (OpenCode), it's been horrific.

I use the BMad method for long projects. Most models will take the prompt (e.g. bmad-dev-story 1-1) and start with it, but they will often just stop mid-work. 30k tokens consumed, they just stop. This has been with all of the Qwen models I've tried, GLM 4.7, and several others. I've tried the small 7b models all the way up to Llama 3 70b.

Someone here mentioned Gemma 4 so I thought I would give it a shot. The first one I tried, e4b, crapped out the same as the other. Then I tried the 31b model, and its actually running! It's slow, sure, but I don't care about that. I want to set it on a code review and feed it a story and let it do it's thing. And it's doing it!
