Bazzite definitely doesn’t want you to use Windows NTFS formatted drive partitions and it isn’t supported https://docs.bazzite.gg/Gaming/Hardware_compatibility_for_gaming/#ntfs

You could try to see if the drives at least show up in whichever disks application Bazzite uses (GNOME uses the “Disks” application so maybe it’s the same for you), if it’s in there you can click the partition and see what options you get for mounting it, if at all possible.

But I think in general if you were planning to use Windows NTFS drive partitions then Bazzite may not be the best distro to use.

Similar to the other comment, not sure if you’ve ruled out writing a Python script? For what you’re describing Python would be able to easily tackle your requirements and still be readable since it’s just a script you can launch whenever you need. Python is also pretty easy to pick up so if you’re familiar with scripting then it could be a fun learning experience (if you don’t already know it).

Other scripting languages could work too, just feel like Bash will be less readable if you’re writing a massive script like that.

Like others said dd should work.

If for whatever reason you prefer cloning software I’m pretty sure Clonezilla will easily do a disk-to-disk clone, just double-check if you still need to expand the partition on the new drive after cloning (I don’t remember if Clonezilla does that for you).

Those are pretty low limits but without knowing your actual bandwidth, or if you’re dealing with data caps, can’t say if you’re being rude… but you’re probably fine. In the end you contribute what you can, and seeding is still better than not seeding :)

My own rule of thumb, if my running p2p software needs to have bandwidth limits then I aim for at least 1 Mbit/s (122 KiB/s) to contribute to the network. But that assumes you actually have 1+ Mbit/s internet upload and no data caps, people around the world have different available speeds.

Seems like it’s down right now.

That’s weird, maybe an update broke something? What I would maybe do is uninstall Xrdp (and maybe remove/rename the old config files just in case), then re-install and configure it. From there if it’s still not working try to see what’s showing up in the log files maybe.

I did notice that Xrdp requires some extra configuration to work properly with Linux Mint Cinnamon, you apparently need to create a .xsession file in the home folder of whichever user(s) you’re trying to remote into. I’m not on Linux Mint myself but maybe searching around will give you some tips e.g. this seems like a good rundown https://gist.github.com/ParkWardRR/2ab9b5d41bbaceca8471d591755a1898

EDIT: You probably already know this from using it before but for RDP on Linux you’d need to remote into a user that is not already logged in… it’s not like in Windows when you can RDP into any user regardless if they’re already logged in or not.

Yup, been using Xrdp in a Debian + GNOME Wayland setup without issue.

I’ve also used GNOME’s built in Remote Desktop (RDP) with Wayland. KDE’s own RDP should work with Wayland too but I haven’t tested that one yet.

RDP (the same protocol Windows Remote Desktop uses) works fine on Linux. I’d suggest investigating why that suddenly stopped working for you.

For what it’s worth Xrdp seems to work well on Linux for enabling a RDP Remote Desktop server… I suspect you are / were(?) already using Xrdp and just need to figure out why it stopped working.

I don’t know about “best” but on Android I’ve been using the K-9 mail app for years without problems. Supports multiple email accounts as well as standard IMAP/SMTP email protocols which is all I really need. The project was merged with Thunderbird so now it’s Thunderbird for Android.

maybe the comments in this post help? https://lemmy.ml/post/40864672 and/or consider posting in one of the jellyfin communities like /c/jellyfin@lemmy.ml or /c/jellyfin@lemmy.world ?

My guess is you probably need to go into terminal and probably fix the folder/file permissions for your media library folders (using chmod), then remove/re-add that media library in jellyfin itself so it can scan the folder properly. But that’s just a guess without really knowing your actual set up.

PS - Don’t worry about Ubuntu, once you get your initial setup figured out everything will run stable.

I don’t remember how Jellyfin installs on Windows nowadays but if it’s just the Jellyfin tray icon executable giving you issues maybe a simple fix is just to remove it from being autostarted? This is assuming the rest of Jellyfin starts up fine without needing that tray icon in the Windows taskbar.

If that doesn’t help it might be that .NET is broken on your system. That’s a lot harder to fix unfortunately… you could try to see if the Windows add/remove programs gives you an option to re-install/fix the current .net installation but that may not help you out much.

You could also check that your Windows system files aren’t themselves broken. Google around for running SFC and DISM, offhand I typically do something like (in an elevated cmd.exe window):

sfc /verifyonly

if the above tells you there are system files to fix run

sfc /scannow

Restart the computer, repeat the above until sfc tells you there’s nothing to fix.

Then run

dism /online /cleanup-image /scanhealth

if the above tells you there are files to fix run

dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth

Restart the computer, repeat the above until dism tells you there’s nothing to fix.

If none of the above fixed anything then it may be time to consider reformatting and re-installing Windows fresh.

Ah true, Fopnu is his other non-bittorrent p2p app. In some ways Fopnu is the spiritual successor to WinMX. It is clearnet only so it’s a bit outside the scope of I2P.

The same dev did also create DarkMX (https://darkmx.app/) which was Tor only up until more recently when he added I2P support around the same time frame he was adding I2P to Tixati. DarkMX (IMO) seems more interesting for I2P users since it was designed from the beginning to work within darknets. Haven’t had a chance to play around with it so can’t say that it has much of a user base but could be worth a look.

Not un-useful, but the number of Tixati users is already limited on the open internet (and heavily slanted towards certain unsavoury interests). Finding other Tixati users on i2p just limits your potential peer group further.

To be fair Tixati is a bittorrent client using the same standard bittorrent protocol that other clients use. So it will connect to bittorrent swarms, peers, trackers, etc. just like any other I2P bittorrent client. So Tixati users will connect to I2P bittorrent peers using I2PSnark, XD, qBittorrent, and BiglyBT. (and any others I missed)

The big limitation is that there are less bittorrent peers on the I2P network vs the clearnet internet… it’s a big difference. It’ll probably stay that way until there’s more people keeping torrents active within I2P, hopefully in the future.

Other minor limitation is that I2PSnark (& and maybe Tixati) are the only bittorrent clients that can use the bittorrent DHT within I2P, all the other bittorrent clients can only find peers using bittorrent trackers. It’s not a big deal as long as people remember to add I2P trackers to their torrents but it does make things less decentralized. Tixati does claim I2P DHT support but I’m not sure how well it works in practice.

Interesting, I did not realize Tixati had I2P support. Actually it has had I2P support since January 15 2025 so it’s had that for a year now.

Tixati itself is not new, the torrent client has been around since 2009 (surprisingly the developer kept all those release news updates on the website https://tixati.com/news).

For darknet p2p file transfers the same developer did create DarkMX (https://darkmx.app/), that itself has had I2P support since June 2025. It used to be Tor only up until then… I haven’t used it personally but it would make more sense for people to use DarkMX rather than Tixati since DarkMX was developed from the beginning without requiring clearnet internet. Using Tixati with I2P is fine but you’re still relying on the Bittorrent protocol for Tixati to work.

Fun fact: This is the same developer that created WinMX back in the day (Kevin Hearn), his software has never been open source but he’s been developing p2p software for a long time now.

Feels like this should have already been resolved with standard Linux permissions, any user on your system should be able to read/traverse that folder and files with the r-x permission on world.

From your earlier comment one of the parent directories is listing with “+” permission so it sounds like you are using extra permissions outside of the standard Linux, probably ACL permissions. I haven’t worked with ACL permissions on Linux enough to offer much advice but what you may want to do is run something like getfacl d64ea996-98aa-4eef-8a93-0a2ba2246f0f as well as run it on one of your media files, that might give you some clues on what the ACL permissions look like.

Also - I’m assuming you already did this - but if you didn’t already make sure your jellyfin service is actually launching with the expected user and user group. Based on your setup you may want to be sure the “jellyfin” Linux user is added to the “video” user group, and then make sure that’s what is being referenced in jellyfin.service.conf (by default is usually in /etc/systemd/system/jellyfin.service.d). If you edit that file be sure to stop the jellyfin service first and then restart it after editing e.g. “systemctl stop jellyfin” and “systemctl start jellyfin”.

Only other thing I can think of is that maybe there’s something wrong with the way your system is mounting the drive and folder. Since you seem to be using the autogenerated UUID for the mounted folder name (d64ea996-98aa-4eef-8a93-0a2ba2246f0f) maybe it’s better to edit fstab yourself and set up your mount as something more permanent with a normal name, and also double-check the permissions everything is mounting as.

Four spaces before the line you want to codify :)

e.g.

UUID=“your uuid” /mnt/external exfat defaults,uid=1000,gid=“your group id”,umask=002,nofail 0 0

vs non-formatted

UUID=“your uuid” /mnt/external exfat defaults,uid=1000,gid=“your group id”,umask=002,nofail 0 0
