Running a Unifi Dream Machine Pro + USW Pro XG 8 Switch. My TrueNAS is a is a UGreen DXP 8800 Plus with dual 10Gbe NIC’s.

On TN, I have both NICs set with static IP’s, let’s say .100 and .101. On the UDMP I also have the set to matching static IP’s. Everything work fine/as expected.

But…in the UDMP interface under clients the 2 clients, TN-1 and TN-2 constantly swap IP’s…sometimes they are both the same, sometimes they are flipped and sometimes correct. When i say constant, I mean literally changing every 1-2 seconds.

Other than that I occasionally get a warning in the UDMP that an IP is used by multiple clients.

On the TN machine this is not observable, no swapping of IP’s on the interfaces, no connection issues for devices pulling files from the NAS, etc.

Anyone know what this is about, I assume some kinda bug in Unifi?

Just ordered and noticed the listing said there would be a May OTA update to add matter support. Have a couple questions for those who have this vacuum.

- Did this update already land enabling matter support?
- What does matter support functionally provide?
- Does this mean you don’t need the vacuum on WiFi at all?
- How do you enable matter on the vacuum and set that up?

Thanks any insight would be appreciated, not finding much online about it. To be clear, I generally understand what Matter itself is…I am asking how this specific vacuum leverages Matter.

TL;DR - has anyone actually gotten uCore installed in a Proxmox VM using the CoreOS qcow2 and an ignition file? If so what directions/process did you follow to get it to work?

Im pulling my hair, have spent the last 2 days working on this…

I have downloaded the Fedora CoreOS “Proxmox VE” .qcow2 image, it’s been extracted out of the .xz. I have copied it from my laptop to my Proxmox server’s storage for VM drives called “machines”. I have used Proxmox cli `qm importdisk <vmid> /path/to/laptop/qcow2 machines` and then in the Proxmox GUI it is showing attached, set as a hard disk and resized to the size I want.

I have followed the uCore directions to auto rebase. I downloaded their `ucore-autorebase.butane` example, edited it for the user/creds/ssh I want. I then converted it to `config.ign` ignition file.

Here’s where my problems all seem to start…and I’ll admit right now I have been using ChatGPT to help me with this and it’s been a nightmare.

First it had me convert the `ignition.ign` into an ISO and attach that to the VM. I did that, VM boots, starts CoreOS install and fails in a wall of text and complains about cidata…after much back and forth with AI we decide a different approach.

I upload the `config.ign` to my Proxmox storage for snippets. In the web GUI of Proxmox, the file is visible. AI is telling me to set a `arg` for the VM to use this file. I confirm the command looks good to add this arg, arg has correct path/file name, etc. This fails as well.

Basically, it looks like CoreOS is ignoring my attempts to feed it an ignition file and is trying to use a Afterburn data source? Whatever that is.

AI is now telling me I need to host the ignition file using an HTTP server and before I bother with that I need a sanity check and escape from the AI hallucination…has anyone actually gotten uCore as a VM on Proxmox working and if so whats the simplistic/easiest way to accomplish it.

Thanks

I’m no developer. I have IT experience and have been making use of Bazzite, Aurora and would like to make use of uCore in my homelab in the future. I’ve read some documentation on uCore and the barrier of entry seems a bit high with butane and ignition and other stuff I don’t fully have my head wrapped around.

I have several questions about making my own own Bazzite, Aurora and uCore images

- Is there a simple guide for how to setup the pipeline to do your own images? Any resource thats helpful for getting started?
- Does the same pipeline work for all 3 flavors or is the setup to build custom images unique for each?
- Is it easier to self host what’s needed for the process or to use online resources like ex: GitHub?

As for why, it’s pretty basic. I’d like to remove packages that come with the images I do not use and possibly bake in some I would use. At least thats the start, in the future at least knowing the process would open the door to further customization of the images for my personal use.

I know I have a lot more research ahead, but for anyone who knows how/does this already guidance on the overall setup, pointers to resources to learn, etc would be great. Thanks

Using Bazarr to grab subtitles for media and came across Whisper for AI generating subtitles. I run my setup on a machine with an Intel 125h CPU which has an Arc iGPU and also has an NPU. Bazarr is able to grab most of what I need but I’d like to be able to use AI generated subs when no other sources have subs.

Unfortunately everything I am finding on Whisper/Subgen seems to indicate it only runs on Nvidia or CPU. I don’t have an Nvidia card and I’d rather avoid running this off CPU only.

Anyone know of/using self hosted AI off Intel GPU for Bazarr subtitles?

I’ve been considering setting up a ClamAV docker container on my TN for a while now, just haven’t gotten around to it. Before you all dive into the comments with “You don’t need this…”, need is a strong word, but I do want to do this…

So I am wondering for those who have, how do you monitor the results? Do you just check logs or do you have something else you pull it into a more digestible state?

I know grafana + stuff is an option but thats sort of overkill for my use case. Anybody know of a non-ai slop, well maintained docker based web GUI to monitor clamav results thats simple to setup?
