# Tips & Tricks

### Setup RClone & RCloneBrowser
- Install RClone and RCloneBrowser
- Manual automount or put into a script: (Make sure name of drive 'OneDrive' exists in Home folder)
`sh -c "rclone --vfs-cache-mode writes mount OneDrive: ~/OneDrive"`

### Scheduling Jobs with crontab
- First see if you have any cron jobs already running:
`$ crontab -l`

- Next we will show you an example scheduled task.

`$ crontab -e`

- You can disable the job by going back into the cron job with:

`$ crontab -e`

- Then uncomment the line with '#' or delete the command.

- To see if the job ran successfully you can check the logs:

`$ sudo cat /var/mail/username`

- Replace username with your actual username.

### Convert Packages (.deb/.rpm)
- Use Alien to repackage programs that are .deb files into RPM files. This will not work with all packages but worth a shot if you need a package for your distro.

- Download alien: https://software.opensuse.org/package/alien

- Download the deb file you want to convert and navigate to your downloads folder in via the terminal [Ex: cd ~/Downloads]

- Run this command to start converting against the deb file. In this example we're running it against DasKeyboard software

`$ sudo alien -r -c -v das-keyboard-q_3.2.4.deb`

- Now install your new RPM file from the terminal (suggest using terminal over Yast for these).

$ `sudo rpm -i das-keyboard-q-3.2.4-2.x86_64.rpm`
