Linux Desktop on Apple Silicon in Practice

Linux Desktop on Apple Silicon in Practice

NOTE: Time flies, and it's been almost five years(!) since I wrote this. Beaware the text below is now outdated (e.g., now Asahi Linux has graphics acceleration even better than this). The commands listed are up-to-date.

I bought M1 MacBook Air. It is the fastest computer I have, and I have been a GNOME/GNU/Linux user for long time. It is obvious conclusion that I need practical Linux desktop environment on Apple Silicon.

synology speed tweaks

Note: this was tested and used on DSM5 and partly on 6. Since V7 I am not using this anymore.

Got and ssh into your box. Find what is using swap:

find /proc -maxdepth 2 -path "/proc/[0-9]*/status" -readable -exec awk -v FS=":" -v TOTSWP="$(cat /proc/swaps | sed 1d | awk 'BEGIN{sum=0} {sum=sum+$(NF-2)} END{print sum}')" '{process[$1]=$2;sub(/^[ \t]+/,"",process[$1]);} END {if(process["VmSwap"] && process["VmSwap"] != "0 kB") {used_swap=process["VmSwap"];sub(/[ a-zA-Z]+/,"",used_swap);percent=(used_swap/TOTSWP*100); printf "%10s %-30s %20s %6.2f%\n",process["Pid"],process["Name"],process["VmSwap"],percent} }' '{}' \;  | awk '{print $(NF-2),$0}' | sort -hr | head | cut -d " " -f2-

Tcpdump

Tcpdump is a commandline tool that is used to dump traffic on a network. This tool comes in hand when you want to analyse network captures within the command line. Basically it can do most of the wireshark job.

NOTE This guide might not be complete it just serve as a reference to me.

Setting up ssh public key authentication on macOS using a YubiKey 4

Setting up ssh public key authentication on macOS using a YubiKey 4

I largely followed Florin's blog post, but have a few notes to add regarding issues I encountered:

Basic setup notes

  1. I used a YubiKey 4, while the blog describes using a YubiKey NEO. I'm sure a YubiKey 5 would also work. I'm also running macOS 10.13.6.
  2. I installed GPGTools as recommended. However, as I'll note later, it seems that gpg-agent only automatically starts when gpg is used; for ssh, you'll need to ensure it's running.
  3. Before generating your keys, decide what key size you want to use. If you run the list command inside gpg --edit-card, look for the Key attributes line to see what is currently selected. On my YubiKey 4, it defaulted to 2048 bits for all keys:
Key attributes ...: rsa2048 rsa2048 rsa2048
