Denon HTTP Commands

Various Denon receivers such as the Denon AVR-3311CI with ethernet connectivity use a GoAhead-Webs server offering a basic control panel for modifying the reciver's functionality w/o having to use the remote or panel controls.

This is an attempt to document said controls.

My receiver is at 10.10.10.214 you'll either need to put yours at that IP or modify these slightly to your needs.

Installing Jellyfin

I do things a bit more custom on my server than most folks.

Using the install-debuntu.sh script, I was running into an issue where jellyfin would not start properly, due to the included ffmpeg not working.

I was getting this error when running sudo systemctl status jellyfin.service

MediaBrowser.Common.FfmpegException: Failed to find valid ffmpeg

Instructions for Disabling a PCI Device Linux

I want to disable the onboard WiFi card, as I use a better USB one. Having both of them was causing weird conflicts where they'd both try to connect to the network at the same time and would keep the machine from connecting outside of the netowrk.

Install Balatro Mods on Linux Mint Steam

This will probably work on other distributions feel free to ask questions if you need help. I'm not an expert on Balatro or installing mods, this is just how I figured out how to setup my system.

Note

I do not know how to mod the GOG version after going back and forth with a troll I will not spend any of my time trying to figure it out, sorry. I do not use GOG and I do not have a sus copy of the game to experiment with and try to figure it out.

I cannot help you mod the game, I don't know how and have very little interest in learning. There's a guide here which might help: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3400691352

Fixing Nvidia Drivers to Use With Plex

I've read through what seems like infinity stack**** posts and various other things, this worked for me on a server with a Tesla card running Mint kernel 6.8.x

Errors

$ nvidia-smi
NVIDIA-SMI has failed because it couldn't communicate with the NVIDIA driver. Make sure

that the latest NVIDIA driver is installed and running.

Installing USB Advanced Card Systems, Ltd ACR122U NFC Reader / Writer (Debian, Mint, Ubuntu)

Intro

I've found a lot of conflicting information on getting one of these up and running on Debian/Ubuntu/Mint, this is a guide to what I did to get mine working. This was tested on Orange Pi 1.0.2 Bookworm aarch64 and Linux Mint 21.3 x86_64.

The OrangePi (and possibly other SBC devices) does not provide enough power to the USB port to activate the reader. You will need to get a powered USB hub.
