Revision as of 17:29, 27 September 2017
Desktop computer ordered on 9/11/17
Rhymes with blur. This is not a Common Murre, though black and white, this one is flightless.
Replacement for Laysan. I just wanted more RAM and ended up replacing everything but the drives!
Hardware
9/15/17 Up and running, these parts ported from Laysan:
- WDC Black 500GB NVME
- 2 x Seagate Barracuda SATA 3.0 in RAID 0, mounted at D:
- Nvidia Quadro 2000D video card
These parts ordered 9/11/17
- ASUS TUF X299 Mark 2 motherboard (Warranty 5 year)
- Intel Core i9-7900X Skylake-X 10 core CPU (Warranty 3 year)
- Cooler Master "MasterLiquid Lite 120" liquid CPU cooler with one 120mm fan (Warranty 3 year)
- 64 GB RAM G.Skill TridentZ (4x16) DDR4 3200 (leaves 4 slots free) (Lifetime warranty)
- Seasonic SS-750KM3 750W 80plus Gold modular power supply (Warranty 7 year)
- Fractal Designs Meshify C case
I could use a couple TB of SSD for GIS data here. Perhaps when my ship comes in. For now I will put the 750GB Samsung 840 drive in it soon.
Software
Printing
First I installed the Brother drivers from their site. Then used the CUPS IPP printer, by typing it into Windows: http://192.168.123.2:631/printers/brother_hll2320d and then specifying the correct driver in the Windows wizard.
Operating system
Windows 10 Pro, Full version installed on NVME
I was tired of not being able to get full use of that video card due to restrictions caused by running under VirtualBox. I will still run Linux in VirtualBox when I needed it.
In preparation I "deauthorized" ArcGIS 10.5 Desktop on Laysan, and according to this guide I just have to march through the Windows 10 "reactivation" procedure that I went through a month ago when I accidentally made changes to the VirtualBox machine. In this case it required calling the 855- number and reading the 70 digit number to a human. Then a robot gave me the secret reactivation code.
I am frustrated at the notion of installing native Windows 10 when my Parallels + Windows 7 combination on my Mac works so well. C'est la guerre.
Everything else
"?" means I have not installed it yet and am not sure I want to.
- ActiveState Komodo? or Spyder? or Visual Code?
- Adobe Acrobat DC
- Docker for Windows (requires HyperV from Windows 10 Pro)
- ESRI ArcGIS Desktop, ArcGIS Pro
- Libreoffice 5
- Microsoft Visual Studio? Visual Code?
- Miniconda version of Anaconda (provides spyder but not sure I need it right now)
- OwnCloud Client
- Postgres PGadmin 4
- Synology Cloud Station Client
- Windows Subsystem for Linux (Ubuntu on Windows, almost a miracle) which includes
- bash
- emacs
- ssh client
- rsync
Using Docker with HyperV (part of Windows 10 Pro) is not compatible with VirtualBox. If I want to run virtual machines here I will need to run them under HyperV.
With WSL installed you can
- sudo apt install emacs
Install miniconda 64 bit python 3.6 and add git; adding git gives me a Git Bash shell too.
conda install git
Synology Cloud Station Drive
I rsync'ed all the TrailPeople data over from Plover and then I linked the server. That avoided pulling a fresh copy of every file over from the server.
