script

I just rearranged some of my storage and wanted to automate this, and I was pleased enough that it worked exactly how I thought it should work that I thought I'd just share. This goes in /etc/profile.d on most Linux systems today.

I am using the AUTOMATIC1111 stable-diffusion distribution, and you can install modules to that. Some modules can be installed and updated from inside of the program, while others cannot. Those other modules have to be updated by doing a git pull. This is not a big job, but it can be made even smaller with a very small shell script.

I wanted to keep some programs running, which is to say restart them if they crashed, but I also wanted them to be able to exit normally. The platform is Linux, the problem is compiz, the solution is a very small shell script. Surely the internets will let me know if there is something grossly wrong with it. This script is not meant for long-running daemons, there are plenty of tools for that already.

I needed a quick version of lspci for looking at some linux systems without pciutils, so I threw this one together in a couple of minutes.

It's very simple, it doesn't tell you what the devices are, but it does tell you what kind of devices they are and what their PCI ID is. Then you can go look that up online to figure out what they are. It wouldn't be a horrible stretch to add support for the pci.ids file, but it wasn't necessary for my purposes.
