Linux下中文字体安装

上次弄LaTeX时拷来了些中文字体，这次想顺便给Linux装上

需要的文件是simsun.ttc, simkai.ttf, simfang.ttf, simhei.ttf
把它们都放到~/fonts

然后在/usr/share/fonts建一个到~/fonts的link
ln -s ~/fonts wl_fonts

现在进到~/fonts里，运行
mkfontscale
mkfontdir

再运行fc-cache就好了

这时候应该说Linux就能用了，我尝试把系统字体改成Simsun，成功了。

但是我又尝试把Firefox的字体也改成Simsun，这时虽然中文好看了，可是有的英文字体却“一片狼藉”。于是又改回文泉驿了。

上面那个链接后面还讲了修改/usr/fonts/fonts.conf达到更改字体顺序和修正中文字体渲染的方法，我还没试，也许弄好了之后Simsun里的英文也能正常显示了

A Rocky Migration: Moving from docker-compose to Podman and gVisor

I've been running a few containers for several years. They were all running under rootless Docker with a single user. Initially, I planned to migrate the containers to VMs , but I couldn't get a stable workflow after about two months of effort. Later, gVisor caught my attention , and I decided to migrate to Podman with gVisor instead. The new plan is to run each container with --userns=auto and use Quadlet for systemd integration. This approach provides better isolation and makes writing firewall rules easier. I'm now close to migrating all my containers. Here are a couple of rough edges I'd like to share. Network Layout I compared various networking options and spent a few hours trying the one-interface-per-group approach before giving up. I settled on a single macvlan network and decided to use static IP addresses for my containers. To prevent a randomly assigned IP address from conflicting with a predefined one, I allocated a large IP range for my ...

Fix Google Security Code

Google Security Code (http://g.co/sc) is one type of 2-step verification. This is particularly useful when security keys and passkeys are not available. I have been using it in my LXC containers, until today I found out that it stopped working. It just kept saying "The code is invalid". It is easy to rule out some factors: The code works on other browsers on my laptop. The code works on other devices that are directly connected to the router. So it appears that Google also checks IP addresses besides the security code. Recently I have IPv6 enabled, so most devices that are directly connected to the router have both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses. But I only enabled IPv4 for my LXC containers. So I guess when a code is generated by device A and used by device B, Google should be able to check that device A and device B are closely located. But in my case, IPv6 address appears on device A but not on device B, which may look suspicious. To fix the problem, I just needed to disable IPv...

Exploring Immutable Distros and Declarative Management

My current server setup, based on Debian Stable and Docker, has served me reliably for years. It's stable, familiar, and gets the job done. However, an intriguing article I revisited recently about Fedora CoreOS, rpm-ostree, and OSTree native containers sparked my curiosity and sent me down a rabbit hole exploring alternative approaches to system management. Could there be a better way? Core Goals & Requirements Before diving into new technologies, I wanted to define what "better" means for my use case: The base operating system must update automatically and reliably. Hosted services (applications) should be updatable either automatically or manually, depending on the service. Configuration and data files need to be easy to modify, and crucially, automatically tracked and backed up. Current Setup: Debian Stable + Docker My current infrastructure consists of several servers, all running Debian Stable. System Updates are andled automatically via unattended-upgrades. Se...
