That device should be supported natively: https://linux-hardware.org/index.php?id … -103c-2216

^ I'm gonna blame that until we know better.

Please post dmesg. Thanks.

EDIT: try the patched driver: https://github.com/astyonax/patched-RTS5227-5229

EDIT2: off-topic here but you do know that your ThinkPad is still stuffed full of proprietary firmware blobs even if it's running osboot, right?

I really should have spotted this but victorvas over at daemonforums noticed that the output files need the ".mp4" bit stripping before adding the ".mp3" suffix, so:

for X in *.mp4; do ffmpeg -i "$X" "${X%.mp4}".mp3; done

EDIT: moved second close quote to before the dot. Meh.

Have you tried disabling hardware acceleration for Zoom?

Here's my Wayland session startup script:

exec sway > ~/.sway.log 2>&1

That's it. What is obscure about that? The logging is purely optional, the desktop will start with just sway run from the console (or X session if you want a nested Wayland compositor).

tl;dr: they were wrong, Wayland is awesome.

This might help:

So it's either fixed upstream already or you have something else going on.

@rbit: apologies for the issue, all my tests were conducted on boxen with usrmerge, which link /usr/bin/loksh to /bin/loksh automatically and so don't suffer this error.

I'll have to decide how best to fix it but I should have it working again very soon. The oksh package installs to /bin/oksh and so will work without usrmerge.

Sorry for the trouble.

@golinux: I was considering it but my mobility issues prevent me from queuing that long but are not serious enough to consider entry to the disabled line. I've had the live stream of Westminster Hall running in the background though, it is oddly compelling.

For your grub rescue> issue see https://dev1galaxy.org/viewtopic.php?id=5245.

Debian made the unfortunate decision to update the GRUB version for the 11.5 point release but this breaks some UEFI firmware implementations: https://archlinux.org/news/grub-bootloa … ibilities/

That's good but absence of evidence is not the same as evidence of absence.

It's funny but GlennW has just posted this in another thread:

And I would also quote Steve Pusser (the head packager over at MX Linux) on this:

Well it is about PeppermintOS and PeppermintOS has the deb-multimedia repositories added (with no pinning) in their default release. So I think we are very much on topic here.

Gracious me, no. I only started using GNU/Linux about 8 years ago. I'm a n00b :-)

If you want to flex on these boards it might be best not to mention you used to work for Red Hat. Their name is mud here. I like them though :-)

Yes, I agree, we are on topic here.

No, that's fine. I have no interest in a thread about your employment history. Perhaps others will though so feel free to go ahead. You certainly seem impressed with how you've done.

I did look at your website and load up the live ISO image but I couldn't really find much beyond extra themes so I thought I would ask you while you were here.

I read https://peppermintos.com/about/ but all that nauseating wank about "DevOps" made my toes curl so much I had to take my slippers off. Is that all an in-joke or are you actually serious about that? I certainly couldn't find anything concrete beyond buzzwords and the usual "minimalistic desktop" bs.

Yeah, tell me about it...

CI/CD is indeed lovely. I was very pleased when I managed to persuade GitHub's Travis CI/CD to build new ISO images for me and upload them to the "Releases" page with full logging and no manual intervention. Saved me loads of time.

But it doesn't really benefit the users directly, does it? I didn't even bother telling my users.

And which applications, exactly? The default install doesn't have any Peppermint repositories or packages with all of the custom configuration applied via live build. And btw the live build documentation does recommend installing custom configuration as packages, which I found to be a more useful approach.

I found the package installer thingy ("Install a Web Browser" in the Welcome window) but that runs a Python GUI as root. And you have a polkit rule that allows all Python GUIs to run as root. That's messed up. Why not run a GUI under the normal user to collect the information and pass that to a script running as root? You could even feed stdout & stderr back to the (non-root) GUI.

Oh, and the Release Notes link in the Welcome window is broken:

HTH

Then use arch-chroot from the live environment, as I suggested in my first post.

Are you even reading replies?

Yes. Details on the Arch News item to which I linked. It's been all over the Arch forums recently.

Debian's 11.5 point release has an upgraded GRUB version, which is highly unusual. I'm not sure if that also has the problem.

I don't use GRUB myself...

Hold on, I missed this:

Why was grub-efi-amd64 installed?

Check dmesg in Ubuntu to see what it's doing. My guess would usually be firmware but there chimaera package already has the latest rtlwifi verisons.
