Re: [Trisquel-users] Trisquel 8 with kernel 4.15.0-99 BusyBox error

2020-05-03 Thread diopon

Hello,

thank you, I managed it. Unfortunately I didn't install all the needed kernel  
packets, this is why I got this error message.


Now the OS is booting fine, but after the login the system is frozen at 90%  
of my efforts.


Any advice how to fix this error?

You can chroot from a live session. Boot from a live CD and open a terminal.  
Then, assuming your root partition is /dev/sda1


$ sudo su
# TARGET=/media/sda1
# mkdir -p $TARGET
# mount /dev/sda1 $TARGET
# mount --bind /dev $TARGET/dev
# mount --bind /dev/pts $TARGET/dev/pts
# mount --bind /proc$TARGET/proc
# mount --bind /sys $TARGET/sys
# cp /etc/resolv.conf   $TARGET/etc/
# chroot $TARGET /bin/bash

This places you in a root terminal on the trisquel system. Do whatever you  
want to do there,e.g., uninstall that kernel.


To exit from chroot:

# control-D

This brings you back to where you were in the live session and you can  
unmount


# umount -l $TARGET/dev/pts
# umount -l $TARGET/dev
# umount -l $TARGET/proc
# umount -l $TARGET/sys

If you have something that needs the kernel headers that can be done by  
installing the appropriate -headers package.


I think earlier you installed linux-libre-5.4, so that it would be  
linux-libre-5.4-headers. Maybe I should mention this on the website just in  
case.


The kernel headers are (currently) not installed by default. It's not clear  
to me if they should be or not. I've done it both ways over the years where  
they are and aren't. I usually get feedback from people both ways saying both  
yes and no.

Your kernel headers for kernel 5.4.5-gnu cannot be found at

Perhaps when an LTS kernel reaches EOL, you could bump the version
number and replace it with a transitional package to the next LTS
kernel.  For example, when 4.4 reaches EOL, turn linux-libre-4.4 into a
dummy package which depends on linux-libre-4.9.  Maybe you could also
implement an interactive prompt warning the user when this happens, or
you could update the webpage to state that this is the default behavior.

There can still be other benefits, like new (non-hardware) features in the  
kernel. An example is how 5.4 has various filesystem improvements.

Would it be a good idea to have an interactive prompt from the package  
manager?


I'm thinking perhaps a few different types:

* One might start appearing, say, 30 days before it becomes end-of-life. With  
each new version during that time there would be a message with an "OK"  
button. Is that a good amount of time?
* The very last kernel version would say it has reached end-of-life and is no  
longer supported.


But: This depends on people applying updates timely; I've heard of some that  
don't. If they don't apply updates within that 30 day window they'd miss it.  
And, once an version has reached end-of-life I usually remove it after a week  
or 2 to keep the APT repository small, so people could miss the last version  
entirely if they don't update before I remove it. Also, you can tell the  
package manager to now show interactive prompts.


Thoughts? Ideas?

Because, as Chaosmonk points out, getting the latest and greatest kernel  
versions isn't that useful for an old 32-bit laptop, I decided to go with:


"I want the latest version of Linux-libre, but when 5.5 comes out as the next  
major new release I want to wait a bit before upgrading so that any problems  
can get sorted out. I'll decide when I'm ready to upgrade to 5.5, but I still  
want to get updates for 5.4 while I'm waiting."


So I ran the accompanying command:
sudo apt install linux-libre-5.4

As you said, the bug in 5.4 causing the kernel panic has been fixed and my  
laptop is now booting fine with it. Thanks to you and everyone for your help.


5.4 will get security updates for at least 2 years. Hopefully support will be  
extended to 6 years, by which time I'll be very impressed if this 10 year old  
laptop is still working and useful ;)


One question, will I get any kind of indication from the update system when  
the 5.4 kernel version reaches EoL, or will I just have to remember to check  
back in a couple of years?

AFAIK I didn't remove them all, I removed only the one that was causing the  
problem, using the purge command mentioned further up in the thread:


sudo apt purge linux-image-5.4.0-gnu

I may have run automremove after this, I can't remember now.

If I had removed all jxself's kernels, my system would now be using the  
latest kernel currently being offered from the standard Trisquel repos, yes?  
Is that 5.3.12-gnu? Because that is what my system is currently using.

Ah, I think I see what my error was. By using "purge" instead of "remove", I  
not only removed the Linux kernel version that was causing me problems, but I  
undid almost everything I did when I added your linux-libre repo in the first  
place. A better approach would have been to use "remove", and then use  
"apt-get upgrade" (*not* "apt-get dist-upgrade"), instead of "apt upgrade" to  
avoid updating the kernel again until you told me the bug was fixed. Does  
this sound correct?

If you install linux-image-5.4.2-gnu for example you will forever be stuck on  
5.4.2 so that's not what you want to do.


The idea is you don't install the linux-image packages directly but one of  
the metapackages, which then pull in the linux-image packages as a  
dependency. Those metapackages are the ones that enable you to get updates to  
newer versions according to whatever sort of upgrade rules you want. They are  
described in detail in the table on https://jxself.org/linux-libre/ along  
with the upgrade rules that go along with them. Find a rule (aka "use case")  
you like, and install the package shown.

move off of 4.14.


Re: [Trisquel-users] Trisquel 8 does not boot after updating and upgrading

2019-11-29 Thread jason
There are a few questions in this. It will take some effort to unpack them  
all, so here goes:


There was an announcement back in (I think) April 2018 that LTS kernels would  
be supported for 6 years. Well, it turns out that's not entirely true. Well,  
maybe it is. What seems to happen is that LTS kernels start off with 2 years  
of support only, and then later get updated to add 4 more years later on.


That (going from 2 years to 6 years) happened with 4.14 back in July:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/docs/kernel/website.git/commit/?id=a294222b772df262eb284c0503f6a6070f5bb22a

So far, every LTS kernel that's come out since then has been given the 6 year  
treatment (4.4, 4.9, 4.14) but 4.19 and 5.4 have not, or at least have not  
*yet*. Will they in the future? I do not know; all I can say is that they're  
not listed that way right now but that doesn't mean the extra 4 years won't  
be added later like it was for 4.14.


Anyway, I was able to duplicate this problem and believe it has been fixed in  
version 5.4.0-gnu-2.0. It would be helpful to test that, as it seems to be  
fixed for me now.


To answer the other involves consulting the table at  
https://jxself.org/linux-libre/


As you can see, the package called linux-libre-lts always gets you the  
"current" LTS. This would be why you were upgraded to 5.4, since that is an  
LTS version. If you want to stick with an a specific LTS version, the way to  
do that would be to uninstall linux-libre-lts: sudo apt purge linux-libre-lts  
(otherwise you'll be getting prompted soon to upgrade to 5.4.1 soon, as I am  
currently compiling that version as I write this message) and install one of:


linux-libre-5.4
linux-libre-4.19
linux-libre-4.14
linux-libre-4.9
linux-libre-4.4

The package names that contain a specific version number like those will  
cause you to stick with that kernel series only. If you should decide that  
you want to move to another LTS in the future it will be on you to decide  
both when and which one, since you won't be automatically moved anymore. BUT:  
I encourage you to re-try 5.4 since I believe the problem has been fixed with  
5.4.0-gnu-2.0.

The difference between "purge" and "remove" is that purge removes
system-wide configuration files for the package.  It would not prevent
you from connecting to the repo.  Can you still not connect?  Maybe your
mirror was down.

If you are using jxself's repo, run

$ sudo apt install linux-libre-4.14

which is a metapackage that always depends on the latest 4.14 kernel, so
you'll get security updates to 4.14 but won't get upgraded to a newer
kernel for as long as 4.14 is supported.

When booting, select "Advanced Options for Trisquel" in the grub menu
(if the grub menu is hidden, you might have to hold Shift) and select
the 4.14 kernel.  Once you've booted into 4.14, remove all kernels newer
than 4.14, so that next time you boot 4.14 is the default.

I thought I did that, but I guess not. 5.4 is an LTS version. The last

Before that 4.14, which is projected to EOL in 2024, which is three years

I don't know the answer to this, but my general suggestion is that any
upgrade comes with a risk of regression, so when you upgrade it should
be for a reason.  In general the reason to upgrade your kernel is for
newer hardware support.  Since the hardware you run is rather old, I
don't think you have much to gain from running a bleeding-edge kernel.
I would just pick the most recent LTS kernel that works with your
hardware, and stick with that for as long as it receives security
updates.

Non-free firmware won't fix your problems and may be security  
vulnerabilities. Your notebook's graphics card is much older (at least 6~7  
years older) than the non-free firmware packages you installed, so I'm afraid  
they can't address any problem that is relevant to your very old GPU. I  
remembered that I purchased an AMD HD4xxx series card in 2009 summer and used  
it to play some video games. The mobile version should have been released at  
almost the same time.


Go to your notebook's BIOS and see whether you can disable the discrete  
graphics card. If there is such options as "Integrated", then choose it. If  
you can't disable the discrete graphics, I recommend that you sell your  
current notebook and purchase one with only Intel's integrated graphics. For  
example, X200 or T400s is much better (and inexpensive now).

Yeah, it's a weird one. I had run into an issue the graphical installer
on Macbooks where I'd get a grub error when connected to the internet. I
wonder if there's something odd about the SSDs used in some Macbooks.

> I will just try again using a CD.

If you made it through the entire install process and the only step that
failed was installing grub, you might be able to fix your system without
reinstalling. As per this thread,[1] boot into a Trisquel live session
and run

$ sudo fdisk -l

to list all devices. Use the size to figure out which is which. (For me,
/dev/sda is usually the USB stick and /dev/sdb the SSD, but it may be
different in your case.)

Then, install grub onto the SSD

sudo grub-install /dev/[name of the SSD in the fdisk output]

If it's already been fixed in Debian or Ubuntu then it might be possible

I received an Abrowser update today as well, so that might have been a
coincidence. Abrowser is a unique case. Firefox/Abrowser is a rolling
package in Ubuntu/Trisquel, so whereas with a stable package the
maintainer has to backport all security fixes, with Abrowser each new
version comes with Mozilla's recent security fixes. I think you might
have been okay for Abrowser, although it's good that you now have
security updates enabled for everything else.

> Synaptic should avoid letting the user without security updates, IMHO.

I indeed can't think of a reason why a user wouldn't want security
updates. Security updates are at least enabled by default. I'm not sure
how yours got messed up.

If you want bug fixes you should enable flidas-updates, and if you want
security updates you should enable flidas-security. Other than that
everything looks good to me. If you can update and install without
errors or warnings then I think your original problem is fixed.

See this page[1] and scroll to the section called "Install updates from"
for an explanation of how flidas-updates and flidas-security are
different from flidas.

LibrebIobit is correct. You can install via the 'try trisquel' option, then  
selecting the 'install Trisquel' option. You can perform an encrypted install  
via the installer. This will be an encrypted install like any other GNU/Linux  
install.


What you can't do is encrypt the /boot too.

I'm currently running Debian with full encryption install and it's a nice  
set-up. As much as I really want to support Trisquel I can't wait or do some  
temporary install. I have lots of work to do and need a working system. It  
also made me worried about the potential speed a future broken system might  
be sorted. So I'm sticking with my long-term, familiar Debian. That's not to  
take anything away from Trisquel - it's a superb distro and I support it.  
It's just not ideal for me right now.

Recently I wanted to install Trisquel 8 (with net install) on a librebooted  
X200s ThinkPad with full disk encryption. However, it is currently broken  
unfortunately. There is an error during the installation as found in this bug  
report: https://trisquel.info/en/issues/25533


Also, the current Libreboot guide for this is desperately out of date too:  
https://libreboot.org/docs/gnulinux/encrypted_trisquel.html The guide is only  
available for Trisquel 7, but it may well work for Trisquel 8 though. I know  
the Trisquel community is somewhat seperate from the Libreboot community,  
however I just thought it would be worth bringing this issue to the attention  
of this community too.


I'm interested in possibly running Trisquel, but I will likely avoid it if  
full disk encryption is not available.


Hopefully this will be fixed sometime soon.

2018-12-30 Thread Mason Hock

The most reliable way to see what software is already installed on your
system is to open Synaptic Package Manager. This will show you every
package installed and allow you to add/remove packages.

You can also go to Add/Remove Applications for a more simplified list
of programs that only includes graphical applications and excludes
things like libraries, but this list will not be as complete as that in
Synaptic.

> This to avoid downloading a software once again, if this software is
> already installed in the new Trisquel 8 version.

This isn't really something to worry about when installing software from
the Trisquel repository. If the package is already installed, the
package manager will just upgrade the package if there is an upgrade
available, or it will do nothing if there is no upgrade available.

I recommend reading this page

https://trisquel.info/en/wiki/how-software-installation-trisquel-different-windows

for some general information on how package management works in
Trisquel, and reading this page

I misread your title, sorry.

Can you launch these programs from a terminal as root using gksudo? For
example,

$ gksudo synaptic

should launch a window prompting your for your password, and when
then when Synaptic launches Synaptic should work.

If that doesn't work, run

First I'd make sure that you have all desktop components by reinstalling
the triskel metapackage.

$ sudo apt install triskel

If you are missing the program that edits keyboard shortcuts, it should
be installed by the triskel metapackage. If that doesn't work, I would
next try to figure out the name of that program. For example, the
"Keyboard Shortcuts" menu in MATE is a program called
mate-keybinding-properties.

[Trisquel-users] Trisquel 8 KDE Plasma 5.5.5 Custom Keyboard Shortcuts

2018-10-04 Thread stephen . biggs

Hi,

Any one else using Triskel 8? How do you set custom keyboard shortcuts? All  
the online guides say go to System Settings > Shortcuts > Custom Shortcuts  
then click add. The problem is, that menu does not exist in my system  
settings.


When facing other issues of missing menus, the solution was to install some  
package to get access to that menu. So I'm wondering if there is some missing  
package that will unlock this menu. Any ideas anyone?


TBH, I'd even be happy with a workaround. What I'm ultimately trying to do is  
assign keyboard shortcuts to open a terminal (konsole) and the system monitor  
as I use these a lot and it's really tedious having to use a mouse to click  
on my launchers.


NB: I've already asked on the KDE forum  
(https://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=289=154123=404442#p404333) and  
they suggested asking here.


Many thanks,
Steve

Anybody know if there is an easy way to change color/style of all the icons  
*except* the Trisquel logo.


I love to have the Trisquel logo in the bottom left corner, but I want to  
change the color/styling of all the other icons. Is that easily possible? Or  
do I need to manually change one and one icon?

Right!

Well, after I rebooted my computer the logo did infact change color! And the  
color change is also visible on the all the logos in the


/usr/share/icons/trisquel/scalable/places/ folder.

So it worked! Very neat :)

Now I just wonder if it was necessary to open it with sudo in command line or  
not, but that could easily be tested ! :)


Thanks anyway to you for created the post and patiently guiding me through,  
and to calher for bringing up the folder :)

The easy way to edit that file is to copy the file from that location into an 
area that you have write access. change the permissions on that file so you 
have write access. edit the file however you like, then use sudo to copy or 
move you file to the default location. of course make a backup of the original.

I tried to open the logo from the command line (with sudo), which actually  
gave me no error message, as opposed to the error message I got when try to  
open it as admin the "regular" way.


But when I clicked on "save" nothing happened, no error message no "success"  
message, no anything. I waited a little bit before I excited the program by  
clicking the x on the window, and I was given no message like "would you  
save" or something like that, it just exited the program, back to  
command-line like nothing happened. And the logo did not change color

I tried to open the file as admin with Inkscape and got:

Failed to load the requested file

Have u experienced something similar?

This was "solved" by opening the file as admin (and be sure to go into  
proporties of the file and make it so that it opens in and image editor  
program by default).


However, I am no stuck as to what to do. Because if I try to "save" my newly  
made golden Trisquel logo, it doesn't just automatically replace the old  
file, it creates a new one.

To follow up on my own question:

I tried the "Colorify..." option which is found under "Colors", but got an  
error message

In Inkscape I just deleted the elements that were providing shading and filled 
everything else with white.

SVG files are vector based. As far as I know GIMP does not handle SVG files 
well. However, Inkscape handles them perfectly.

I tried to open it in Gimp and used the "fill" bucket thing to try to fill  
the blue with -in my case- yellow, but it would only fill small amounts. Most  
likely because it is made up of many different shades of blue.


I am very curious as to how how managed to make it white :)
