====== vivobook ======

ASUS VivoBook E210MA: Celeron N4020 (2 cores, 1.1-2.8 GHz), ~4 GB RAM plus zram, 233 GB NVMe, Intel UHD 600, Ubuntu 24.04 LTS, fanless.

**LAN:** ''192.168.1.78'' (DHCP reserved). **Public:** ''vivo.brennan.cafe'' (files) and ''vivo-ssh.brennan.cafe'' (SSH) via cloudflared.

===== Role =====

A distraction-free WriterDeck that doubles as a small always-on server. The WriterDeck concept moved here after the plan was postponed on casa: a dedicated writing machine is most useful when it is not also the production server.

===== Running Today =====

^ Thing ^ Port ^ What it does ^
| ''sshd'' | :22 | key-only inbound SSH, socket-activated |
| ''cloudflared'' | outbound | named tunnel for the ''brennan.cafe'' names |
| file server | ''127.0.0.1:8008'' | ''python3 -m http.server'' on ''~/public'', served through the tunnel |
| ''dictd'' | ''127.0.0.1:2628'' | dictionary server for offline writing |
| ''earlyoom'', ''unattended-upgrades'', ''cron'' | | memory guard plus auto security patches |

A daily cron job probes services, git-pulls repos, and alerts over ntfy.sh.

===== What It Can Serve =====

Full Ubuntu removes the Termux platform constraints: real systemd, ports below 1024, amd64 binaries, and container options in apt. The remaining limits are the CPU, ~2.5 GB of free RAM, and the fact that it is a daily-use laptop.

^ Category ^ Available in apt ^
| Web platforms | ''wordpress'' (dated), ''mediawiki'', ''dokuwiki'', ''ikiwiki'', ''roundcube'', ''miniflux'', ''cgit''/''gitweb''/''gitolite3'' |
| Web servers | ''nginx'', ''apache2'', ''lighttpd'', ''haproxy'', ''varnish'', ''squid'', ''privoxy'' |
| Databases | ''mysql-server'' (real MySQL 8: enables Ghost), ''mariadb-server'', ''postgresql'', ''redis-server'', ''sqlite3'', ''rabbitmq-server'' |
| Flat-file blog | [[indieweb:pureblog|Pure Blog]] on nginx + php-fpm |

''caddy'' is in apt but old; use the official repo or binary for current 2.x. ''mongodb-server'' is not packaged: the Docker image works.
