Tailscale not updating on Ubuntu Server

While doing some routine patching this weekend, I noticied one of my Ubuntu servers was not properly updating Tailscale. This was one of two identical Ubuntu servers running Pihole to handle DNS. One was updating, one was not. Had a look in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ the working one had the tailscale.list, the non-working install had tailscale.list.distUpgrade. Seemed simple to fix just run: cd /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ sudo mv tailscale.list.distUpgrade tailscale.list And then check for updates.

Glances Web UI broken on Debian, Ubuntu, Mint etc

When upgrading some of my servers to Ubuntu 22.04 earlier this year I noticed the Web UI for Glances was broken, didn’t do much investigation at the time, assumed it was a dodgy update or known compatibility issue that would be sorted in time. But noticed the same issue on Linux Mint 22.1 today, almost four months later. According to epsilon77 this is because: Hello! I am maintainer of glances in Debian, for Debian policy, the packages should not include prebult files, for this reason, we had to remove those js files from debian package. and this change does WEB-UI useless.

Installing Pixelfed with Docker Compose

Just my quick notes on installing Pixelfed using Docker Compose, long term I’d like to write this up into a proper guide. Important things to note - Pixelfed as of the moment doesn’t have an official Docker image, normally you’d pull it from Github and build it yourself. However since version 0.11.5 I’ve started using an existing image maintained by Murazaki. Web proxy Assuming you’re running Nginx on the web host you’ll need to setup a proxy by adding something like this to your .conf file:
