i mean, the setting is changed factually, from HDMI to DAC (as desired), but arateconf shows itself as if HDMI is default when i evoke it next time, or is this by default?
thanks
EDIT: it seems that the DAC has now effectively switch to 24Bit/192Khz, so maybe something has saved and worked.
hello , my issue is with [color]arateconf[/color] it is saving but not saving any settings. since i am using mint/(which is based on ubuntu, in turn based on debian) am i at fault?
Hello ,
i have received a DAC and would like to use it for playback with the PC;
have it connected via USB port to the Computer; it supposedly is already connected in USB 2.0 Mode (vs. USB 1.0).
However, if i playback a track in 24/192, the sampling does not change.
the file is from here
https://msbtechnology.com/support/bit-perfect-testing/
Do i need to manually change the setup or why would pipewire/pulseaudio and friends not pick up the proper sampling rate?
Thanks.

reember something like my first powerbook g4, even if i had it closed for like a long time,
still could open it and would have some battery and re-open last screen.
now, with the new standby thing, don't know,
atleast with linux, it takes no time at all to suck the juice out of battery , and everything gone. you can not even easily swap a battery without a screwdriver; quite ridicoulous situation we are in at the moment.
even if you shut the laptop down, it still loses battery in like nothing time, and you are left without a charge; might just have bought stupid devices, but that has also been a "discovery" of lately. i mean i have shut down the laptop, why would it loose still battery so fast?
thanks rolfie,
yes, i mada error in setting it up; now its function Beowulf;
would be nice if there is an "ption" to "transport" the nvidia-legacy-340xx over atleast to Devuan 4.0!
thanks, ended up (for now) with a Beowulf install (since Mac wouldn't let me easily eject already burned Beowulf installer)
but now there seem new problems;
Beowulf is in legacy BIOS mode (Mac 2010 model and think has not yet proper UEFI mode)
kernel is 4.19.-27
Linux devuan 4.19.0-27-amd64
however there are no correspondent linux-headers available in the repo
archive.devuan.org for beowulf
linux-headers-4.19.0-20-all linux-headers-4.19.0-21-amd64
linux-headers-4.19.0-20-all-amd64 linux-headers-4.19.0-21-cloud-amd64
linux-headers-4.19.0-20-amd64 linux-headers-4.19.0-21-common
linux-headers-4.19.0-20-cloud-amd64 linux-headers-4.19.0-21-common-rt
linux-headers-4.19.0-20-common linux-headers-4.19.0-21-rt-amd64
linux-headers-4.19.0-20-common-rt linux-headers-amd64
linux-headers-4.19.0-20-rt-amd64 linux-headers-cloud-amd64
linux-headers-4.19.0-21-all linux-headers-rt-amd64
linux-headers-4.19.0-21-all-amd64
such that the install of nvidia-legacy-340xx-driver is probably botched since i am getting error during boot
could not insert nvidia ...not permitted
probably this can be bettered by using a kernel from backports?
is it possible to use devuan backports on the archives for Beowulf?
But even if have it up and running, would still probably need to upgrade to Devuan 4.0 atleast, since for connecting to university i need newer Cisco package for the VPN sometimes (although they seem now accepting also openconnect as alternative).
EDIT: upgrading to Chimaera Devuan.4.0 yielded the following:

and after reboot during bootup the following error (but it bould into desktop)
udevd[100]: Error running install command "modprobe -l nvidia-legacy-340xx" for module Nvidia: retcode 1
ceres, would that mean "excalibur", could it be then installed on that one?
Hello ,
is this Nvidia-legacy 340 still available for Devuan 4.0 or will i have to install Devuan Beowulf to get it running.
Just installed Devuan 4.0 on an older Mac but it seem not finding anything related to Nvidia-legacy-340.
Thanks.
thanks rolfie,
just that this laptop does not sport a parallel port, if am not mistaken.
maybe it is an error related to the printer (epson eco with ethernet, usb, wireless) instead.
will check some more.
thanks, this software gave me all sorts of errors from the get-go.
took literally down my whole network at times (on a ADSL connection)
such that i had to reboot the router.
it may be useful to some, but i tend to avoid;
dont know what systemd does,
but experienced the passage from debian 7 to 8 and had such many problems and issues, that i tend to dislike it very much and ascribe the issues had to the software systemd, practically ruining a nearperfect linux experience (at the time).
hello ,
getting this error sometime popping up in terminal
Message from syslogd@devuan at Aug 23 23:01:41 ...
kernel:[ 94.148355] Disabling IRQ #7
maybe someone of you can tell me if i need to be concerned about it.
happened quite some time lately;
only hardware thing i did was changing the keyboard, but it seems function well so far.
thanks.
to install yt-dlp manually:
mkdir -p ~/.local/bin
curl -L https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/releases/latest/download/yt-dlp -o ~/.local/bin/yt-dlp
chmod a+rx ~/.local/bin/yt-dlp # Make executable
export PATH="${HOME}/.local/bin:${PATH}"
In order for the command line shell to be able to find these executables, the user's PATH environment variable needs to be extended. This can be done by adding export PATH="${HOME}/.local/bin:${PATH}" to ~/.profile or ~/.bashrc.
now you can update yt-dlp with command
yt-dlp -U
it is recommended to uninstall yt-dlp from repositories since it is not up to date.
don't know what a DXD file is; thought of buying a newer one (also Creative;) because those support DSD mostly, but since those SACD/DSD can be quite costly (around 30&40 Euro per release from what i have seen) think this unit could still serve well for the moment; also, i have a Bluray-Player that can playback DSD upto 5644 kHz/8 canali or something.
what do you mean with "it can be used to detect unwanted resampling"? why should i care about that?
if it should arrive it could have specs like those; DAC-Train is that i got unlucky with a Creative PCIe Soundcard was hoping to use (but that card (AE-5 series) issues on warm-boot into Windows 11, making really strange noises; functioned however fine in Linux)
there is a newer edition of this DAC, but it has Bluetooth, and cannot be disabled entirely;

yes, mac settings were probably left unchanged, but the smaller unit does not do upsampling;
thank you, at the moment i am using mint (next to kubuntu) but i hope this will apply nontheless;
after receiving the DAC , will test and report, hopefully.

edit: the DAC should upsample by itself all audio to 24-bit/384kHz. hope this helps. had good experience with the smaller brother, which over SPIDF when used with Mac sounds really great; bit less so maybe over USB with Windows / Linux; thats why i am buying an SPDIF-add-on-card for the Mainboard since it has Header but no onboard Toslink/DigitalAudio. not sure if championing over SPIDF is limited to 192, will find out.
thank you, i am still learning to avoid "pulse", but since am operating on several computer, it is not quite straightforward and so easy at times;
my question: if i use a DAC over SPIDF/ with Devuan out of the Box, is then this pulseaudio/pipewire still involved, or will DAC take care of things with Alsa directly?=
thanks , have re-installed, EID: i meant re-installed Devuan 5.0 entirely, problem solved;
will remember your suggestion, could need another time;
tried ubuntu-boot-repair and rescatux, to no avail.
Hello ,
on new comput er
have a triple boot system Windows 11 Enterprise - Ubuntu 24.04 - Devuan 5.0/6.0
all 3 system have a proper NVME ;
now had some issue with Win11 which prompted me to re-install Windows 11;
since those NVME are small and pesky, did not bother to remove them manually (at first) from motherboard.
encountered steps on the way, which baiscally prevented me from installing Windows 11 again on the same NVME;
could not properly figure out where the problem could lie; thought it would be because of using USB installer, but it was the same with DVD drive;
would not want to remove other NVME since that should not be necessary;
what seemed to help was to change setting in BIOS > Secure Boot > from "CUSTOM" > "OTHER" - back to "WINDOES UEFI" >> afterwards instaling Windows 11 went through without no proplem; but could not longer boot the other OS, so i had to change back to "CUSTOM" > "OTHER" and it seems that Windows is happy algon the way nevertheless;
now my problem;
in the hustle, several time deleting and installing again Windows on the same NVME , i must have accidentally once clicked too fast and deleted a partition from another NVME , either Ubbuntu or Devuan - one;
now the Linux, sti.ll boot in OS, however, with Devuan there are several issue, which i hope to clear with your help;
basically .
1. it takes very long to boot (this problem is indipenddent of error i laid out above)
there is delay on boot due to
like [0.805369] hub 10-0:1.0: config failed, hub doesnt have any ports (err - 19)
2. and boot after this delay stalls with following error:
fsck.fat 4.2 (2021-01-31)
fsck exited with status code 6 (File system check failed
so most probleably i might have deleted the 1st partition on the NVME for Devuan;
please you be so kind to show how to recover from this error;
thank you.
@ralph.ronnquist thanks, but iam a computer-type-do-first-read-later fail to find the proper setting, maybe i am just needing a bigger monitor;
@altoid,@all, thanks, it might be system-d related, but since i am not in the know of what it does (someone else stated here on this forum that i might be even not interested in getting to know how thinbgs function, an apparently old fproblem (of mine?) - devuan has function beautifully over the last past couple of years, sometimes better, sometimes worse, than previous favorites (still using ubuntu since it tend to function in more use-cases)
the real problem that provoked this "hijacking" of thread (but OP actually asked for a comment so ithought it might be just fine) is actually related to permission rights on NAS , which has not been cleared, and i tend to encounter on several distros, and i am not sure if am doing it just wrong or the problem rather lies with linux and the various file-manager it uses rather than with NAS software or vendor itself.
so pardon me if this went lenghty,
might just well open another thread for the underlying problem,
don't know if there will be a work-around for open-iscsi;
but with the debian instructions it fucntioned well on linux mint;
just made a portion (iscsi-lun) of 350 GB and copied the relevant ISO on it, and linux would now automount on booting the LUN as a separate partition and reading from it with various programs tend to use (mkusb, balena-etcher, rpi-imager) throws off no error warning.
no very elegant solution, but the permission denied issue really got me annoyed; since it wont happend on macos or windows; but lately, it seems also on windows (server) there is similar issue encountered, so it make me think the issue could be with the NAS itself or maybe some sort of samba version thing problem, but it happen also with AFP, so it a bit noisy, sorry.
hello ,
thanks for the help, it seems connected with this "systemd" thing, which i find odd, if this package has been function since "etch".
tried now with 3 distro, and two of them failed to achieve task (devuan (system-d-free), max-linux(ships with system-d "disabled", but present for better "compatibiliy") (on linux mint the task is achieved).
maybe there is another package that can fulfill the task?

hello ,
i have usecase other way around
create SCSI - Lun on NAS and then mount it on Devuan, since there is most often "permission denied" when i try to access Iso files directly on NAS via smb or afp (got to figure how to set access rights correctly, but it seems wide issue on NAS).
however when using "open-iscsi" there is error with devuan

systemctl not found
[/color]
got any idea on how get this to function ion Devuan?
Thanks.
EDIT:
If I understood you correctly, your ALSA was almost silent.
The "force-reload" of ALSA seemed to fix the problem.
thanks for the @elucidation, now this seems to have fixed it,
have a couple of other laptop that can be @restored to alsa0only
now i dont know alot of things, and with alsa, never had to anything, besides configuration when i wanted to use an usb-soundcard instead of the internal. see, my usecase are very limited, not that i expect everything to magically work, but some time things are better expected.
also, since started on linux journey, found it very strange to say the least , that when wanting to @uninstall say a driver like pulseaudio, this couldwould render the laptop completely broke, like uninstalling the whole desktop, unless one know how to fix via reroute. but this is the wrong place to post this, so ill turn volume down.
It is not an issue, it is a feature of ALSA.
With normal loudness, you may hear noise produced by the ALSA resampler.
If you do not like this feature, you may compile and install fftrate ALSA plugin (and configure it).
no , dont know about that,
but this certainly is not normal on thsi part here, cant be.
linux already has "volume" issue, and with alsa-only on this T60 with wheezy was getting "good" audio;
interestingly, when i re-installed later on again, the same sound was no longer achievable;
so either i suffer delusions, or the alsa was changed in the process or somehow, and it did no longer sound that clear.
either way, i experienced what the laptop is capable of in linux; so might aswell check back in time with debian wheezy;
this feature "low volume" is not seeked since have a bit of hearing condition to put it bluntly prefer a good volume , but certainly cannot bear distortions.
thanks for the posting, will check your manual asap.
EDIT:
it seems fixed now, maybe this command shared here fixed it
sudo /etc/init.d/alsa-utils force-reload
getting error but now alsa is back with "proper""volume"
Shutting down ALSA...done.
Setting up ALSA...warning: 'alsactl -E HOME=/run/alsa -E XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=/run/alsa/runtime restore' failed with error message 'alsa-lib main.c:1554:(snd_use_case_mgr_open) error: failed to import hw:29 use case configuration -2'...done.
the laptop has 2 entry "0:HDA Intel" "29:ThinkPad Console Audio Control" maybe before the re-load the number 29 was being used?
thanks alot!
now i have this older laptop which functioned beautifully with debian wheezy and alsa-only;
since switched to devuan (not really a choicethere)
had several other experience
but now had on this "reference" laptop switched on daedalus (and since there to pipewire) and now excalibur to pipewire/wireplumber
but sound was amiss and tried several configuration from your suggestion and it was just hit&miss and would somehow not function properly.
now maybe i have set it wrong, but since removed the configuration files like .xsessionrc or 98-pipewire or so;
also removed pulseaudio and pipewire/wireplumber packages.
isuee is that sound is very low, even with vlc 200% it is probably 1/4 of original strength, and all relevant faderin amixer is set 100%.
there is some error on boot with alsa which i will hand overlater.
what could be error?
there is probably one package left from pulseaudio?
since i removed only "pulseaudio", there is another libpulse0?
is this also needed for removal?
thanks.
