Updates¶

Update System¶

# Full system update (flatpaks, containers, rpm-ostree)
ujust update

# Same as update
ujust upgrade

Uses topgrade to update: - Flatpak applications - Podman containers - rpm-ostree packages - System components

View Changelogs¶

# Stable release notes
ujust changelogs

# Pre-release/testing notes
ujust changelogs-testing

Automatic Updates¶

# Toggle uupd.timer (automatic updates)
ujust toggle-updates

Cleanup¶

# Clean podman images, flatpaks, rpm-ostree content
ujust clean-system

Removes: - Unused podman images - Orphaned flatpak runtimes - Old rpm-ostree deployments

Logging¶

View Logs¶

# Current boot
ujust logs-this-boot

# Previous boot (useful after crash)
ujust logs-last-boot

# Upload system logs to pastebin for support
ujust get-logs

# Upload device info to pastebin
ujust device-info

Returns a pastebin URL to share with support.

Diagnostics¶

Power Measurement¶

# Measure idle power draw
ujust check-idle-power-draw

Uses powerstat to measure system power consumption.

Local Overrides¶

# Compare /usr/etc vs /etc
ujust check-local-overrides

Shows files in /etc that override /usr/etc defaults.

Benchmarking¶

# 1-minute stress test
ujust benchmark

Uses stress-ng to benchmark CPU, memory, and I/O.

CLI Experience¶

# Toggle Bluefin-style CLI (bling)
ujust bazzite-cli

Enables/disables enhanced CLI features from Bluefin.

Common Workflows¶

Weekly Maintenance¶

# Update everything
ujust update

# Clean unused resources
ujust clean-system

Troubleshooting Crashes¶

# Check previous boot logs
ujust logs-last-boot

# Share logs for support
ujust get-logs

Performance Testing¶

# Run benchmark
ujust benchmark

# Check power draw
ujust check-idle-power-draw

Troubleshooting¶

Update Fails¶

Check: Network connectivity, disk space

# Manual rpm-ostree update
rpm-ostree upgrade

# Check for pending changes
rpm-ostree status

Logs Too Long¶

Use journalctl filters:

# Last 100 lines
journalctl -n 100

# Since specific time
journalctl --since "1 hour ago"

# Specific unit
journalctl -u <service-name>
