Re: Relatively boring bullseye upgrade reports
punk: ASrock 4x4 miniPC, AMD V1605b CPU (Zen, integrated Vega GPU) 16GB RAM, SATA SSD. To be used as a desktop. EFI booting, GPT partitions, ext4fs, XFCE4 desktop, totally smooth. If you don't have heavy GPU needs, this is a great little box. Multiple USB3 and USB2 ports, 2 gigabit NICs, HDMI and DisplayPort, takes either an M.2 NVMe SSD or a SATA SSD but not both -- there's room but apparently they share the same PCIe lanes. It was about $300 new without RAM or storage. About 4.5" square and 2.7" high, or if you prefer, less than 12 cm square and less than 7 cm high. Comes with a panel to click it onto the back of a VESA-mount on a monitor. There are more expensive versions with Ryzen 4300U and 4500U if you like the tiny size but somehow need more computing power. I think that if I wanted more CPU, I would want more future expandability, too. -dsr-
Re: Relatively boring bullseye upgrade reports
Ok, serious things. male: QEMU VM, remote hosting, console access is available Primary MX, IPSec endpoint Upgrade was tricky, because IPSec tunnel was brought down during the upgrade. It went up, but I was required to bounce sshd from the console nevertheless. Replaced sysvinit with systemd-sysv while I was at it. Replaced sslh with nginx stream config for SSH/HTTPS multiplexing. i5378: Dell Inspiron 5378, 4Gb ram, 7th gen Intel Core, LXDE/openbox Secondary tool of the trade The upgrade took out my favorite Terminus font from the terminal emulator, (no)thanks to the upgraded fontconfig. Replaced Terminus with self-built OTB version. The upgrade of Icecast reverted all its passwords to the default, without any question asked. Got them back via git history (etckeeper). I'd expect a pitfall like this from RHEL. An internal NIC (ip link add type bridge) that I use for LXC showed NO-CARRIER unless at least one NIC was attached to it (worked differently in buster). Worked around that by adding dummy NIC (ip link add type dummy) to the bridge. LXC configs required numerous /cgroup/cgroup2/ replacements, but there's sed for that. Luckily, I do not have to run anything RHEL-based there. And no, I do not need that lxc-net screwing my netfilter rules. They've renamed obexd from bluez-obexd from good and proper Debian pathname to a horrible RH one. Had to fix my Bluetooth MAP script as the result. A small price for the distribution unification, I suppose. n10i5: Intel NUC N10I5, 8Gb ram, 10th gen Intel Core, LXDE/openbox Primary tool of the trade I forgot to clear apt pinnings before the upgrade, and was left with self-backported mesa, vaapi and libdrm. Nothing that 'apt install -t stable' could not handle though. See also i5378. There's that other VM (female, IPSec endpoint) left, and a half-dozen servers at the office, but it can wait until my vacation ends. My biggest surprises from all this: - most of my custom Apparmor profiles survived OS upgrades with no modifications at all. - most of custom rsyslogd filters continue to work as intended. - and the size of vmlinuz and initrd.img did not increase that much, which allowed me to leave u-boot configuration untouched. IMO - Debian 11 is a good release, transition to it is easy. Easier than 8->9 one (systemd was introduced) or 9->10 one (iptables -> nft, and "predictable" NIC names). But then again, it's not my first rodeo. Stuff I did beforehand just in case: # Thanks, I do not need *that* kind of predictability ln -sf /dev/null /etc/systemd/network/73-usb-net-by-mac.link # And I like my logs to be human-readable sed -r 's/#Storage=.*/Storage=volatile' /etc/systemd/journald.conf # ARM only, what's wrong with these ppl? systemctl mask systemd-pstore.service # SBCs, laptop and desktop # iostat and pidstat are cool, constant writes to /var/log/sysstat are # not systemctl mask sysstat-collect.timer sysstat-summary.timer Reco

r2s: Rockchip 3328-based board, NanoPI R2S Home router, IPSec endpoint Nothing to report, the upgrade went smoothly. helios64: Kobol Helios64 board, same device name NAS Rebuilding custom packages was the longest part of the upgrade, but no problems otherwise. transmission-remote-cli did not make it into bullseye, will search for the replacement. pi: Broadcom 2835-based board, Raspberry Pi 1B RS232 redirector, backup SIM holder Gammu was removed from bullseye, probably will backport it from sid in the future. pi2: Broadcom 2710-based board, Raspberry Pi 3B GNSS receiver, runs proper Debian Nothing to report, the upgrade went smoothly. camel: QEMU VM, remote hosting, console access is available Secondary MX Exim4 configuration has changed somewhat between buster and bullseye, but it's nothing that vimdiff could not handle. Discovered new CHECK_RCPT_NO_FAIL_TOO_MANY_BAD_RCPT option, will test it for a few days. Reco

Hi. Let me join the party, I hope I'm not late. caiman: Marvell Armada 385-based router, Linksys WRT1200AC. Currently used as unmanaged switch. My only gripe with the upgrade was snmpd. Bullseye's version reordered just about everything in snmpd.conf. Reco

Another relatively boring one: alice: a Dell R210 II rackmount server, Xeon E3-1240 v2, 16GB RAM, 3TB Hitachi/HGST Ultrastar 7K4000 HDD, used as a bare metal server + VM / docker / LXC host (some "production" and some hobbyist stuff) No issues at all; the only hassle was dealing with the questions about whether or not to install new configuration files (and manually copy over any changes I've made to the old ones).

Re: Relatively boring bullseye upgrade reports
More grist for the mill. T60p - no issues Thinkpad Helix 2nd Gen. - had to raise bug #986822 as debian kernels were not configured for the newly re-written [5.4+] intel SST sound modules for Haswell & Broadwell. Buster's 4.19 worked with old drivers/modules, now resolved so sound is fine on Bullseye release kernel. Thinkpad Yoga 260 - only issue is the elan trackpoint periodically freezing for a few seconds. Passing pmouse.elantech_smbus=0 kernel parameter seems a fix. Regards..

rock: ASRock DeskMini 300 with a 3400G, 32GB RAM, NVMe disk. Used as an XFCE4 desktop. No issues at all. shield: Asus AM1I-A with AMD 5150 quad0core, 4GB RAM, SATA SSD, lots of gigabit ethernet nics. Used as router, firewall, and infrastructure server. No issues at all. tao: ASRock X570 motherboard, 3600, 64GB RAM, SSD root, SSD ZFS mirror pair, spinning ZFS RAID10. Runs all the server stuff for randomstring.org, including a Postgresql database, many web services, wiki, mail, and so forth and so on. No serious issues. Upgrading from php7.3 to php7.4 wasn't automatic and several packages needed to be installed by hand. ZFS went perfectly transparently. Postgresql 11 to 13 wasn't done automatically, but pg_upgradecluster makes it very very easy. -dsr-
