Hi all,
I just finished to reinstall and fine tune the gNewSense distribution on my
Yeeloong laptop with the new initrd.gz file (version dated 3th mars) provided by
Robert Millan.
I tried the tftp installation procedure (see
http://wiki.gnewsense.org/Projects/GNewSenseToMIPS#toc222 ), whit a tftp server
installed on a Fuloong mini box with the latest debian distribution (according
to http://dev.lemote.com/drupal/node/58 ).
The unique issue was the manual configuration of the Xorg server, adding a line
withe the fbdev option in the xorg.conf file.
The source.list files has a new repository:
deb http://dev.lemote.com/debian-loongson loongson main
A screenshot is provided on the wiki page (

Hi,
It's strange, in my setup the top left debian swirl was replaced by the
gNewSense logo, but not in yours. Did you install gnewsense-pkgsel-desktop ?
What happens if you login as a pristine, newly created user?
Does this also happen to others?
I've got the Debian swirl in my top left as well, with
gnewsense-pkgsel-desktop installed. I've also got a Debian GDM theme,
although gnewsense-gdm-themes is installed according to dpkg.
Something else I've noticed: I can't start any apps from the menu that
use su-to-root (like Synaptic) or gksu (like Terminal as root). I get a
password window and after I fill that in and click OK nothing happens.
When I copy the commands from the menu editor into a terminal, the same
thing happens, with to output in the terminal. I can start Synaptic just
fine with sudo or gksudo.
And then another thing: update-manager doesn't start. And that's not
only because of what I said in the previous paragraph. When I start it
from a terminal it complains that
/usr/share/python-apt/templates//gNewSense.info doesn't exist.
By the way, do we have a bug tracker for this stuff? Do we need one or
do you expect everything to fall into place soon? If we do, should we
use bugs.gnewsense.org or just a bulleted list on the wiki page(s)?
