Re: Re: how to make sure that gnome check available updates to system

[iqwue Wabv]

Thank you Dejan.  I will check these logs.

Additionally I've noticed an empty file 
/var/log/unattended-upgrades/unattended-upgrades-shutdown.log

What is it used for?

kernel-package?

Hello Ulf, hello Debian,

Ulf thanks for the link. It helps me! After some talking in upstream 
(ticket https://github.com/hadess/iio-sensor-proxy/issues/134)

and giving some info about the problem it looks that is a bug in kernel

This is a bug in the kernel. Which might be fixed by:
http://www.spinics.net/lists/platform-driver-x86/msg09702.html

This is the Fedora bug for it:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1401614




The upstream ask to give this information to distribution mainteiner, so 
I am cc to Ritesh 
Raj Sarraf. 


I tried fill the bug report, but accidentally reportbug crashes on 
gnome3 (stacktrace below): 





karol@debian:~$ reportbug

So I am writing here.

iio-sensor-proxy fills my syslog on debian testing

[iqwue Wabv]

Hello,


I noticed that my /var/log/syslog is incredibly fast filled with the 
following messages:


iio-sensor-prox[719]: Could not open input accel '/dev/input/event17': 
Operation not permitted



why?

Re: Re: frequently segmentation faults in gnome session on debian testing

You may want to try linux-image-4.7 from jessie-backports. image-4.8 or 
image-4.9 are not working with Sid or Testing and the i965 chip, on my 
system anyways. I'm using the 4.7 kernel and it works swell.


Hello Jimmy,

Thanks for info about linux-image-4.8, 4.9 and i965. I switched to 
4.8.0-1-686-pae first - segmentation faults occurred on 4.8.0-2-686-pae 
- the image from 4.1.2017..

Maybe -1 is ok...

Regards, Karol

frequently segmentation faults in gnome session on debian testing

Hello,


I'm using debian-testing and from about 2 weeks ago gnome sessions are

debian on lenovo carbon thinkpad 4th generation confirmation report

[iqwue Wabv]

Hello,

I would like to confirm the successfully running Debian testing 
'stretch' on Lenovo Thinkpad Carbon X1 4th generation:


TYPE 20FC-0038PB production 16/07

1) jessie wifi doesn't work because lack of drivers for Intel® Dual Band 
Wireless-AC 8260


which is only available in >4.1 linux kernel. So I have to upgrade my 
installation from jessie to testing


2) after adding firmware 
https://wireless.wiki.kernel.org/_media/en/users/drivers/iwlwifi-8000-ucode-25.30.13.0.tgz


to /lib/firmware wifi works correctly

3) audio and video works

4) suspend/resume works

5) gnome desktop works

6) usb 3.0 works

7) keyboard/touchpad works


Greets to all Debian users,

Karol
