Hi, Altoid.

2 facts:

- just because it works for you doesn't mean that the problem doesn't exist for others
- your answer is out of use to me, and especially does not answer my question. Devuan Stable is not egual to Unstable. Not same libs, etc.

Hi, all.

As I wroted on https://dev1galaxy.org/viewtopic.php?pid=36593#p36593, a bug is open because Virtualbox not function correctly on kernel ≥ 5.10 (including 5.18)

Wait'n see a new version!

PS: One tips, reboot on oldier kernel…
(if available)

Today,

I cant start my VM Virtualbox on my Ceres. Crash!

$ uname -a
Linux pc-z 5.18.0-1-amd64 #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Debian 5.18.2-1 (2022-06-06) x86_64 GNU/Linux

$ vboxmanage --version
6.1.34_Debianr150636

This issue #20914 seems to match.

Here a post on virtualbox forum.

Is it possible to switch to an older kernel? If yes, how?
(knowing that apparently 5.10 seems to be affected too)

#6 Re: Other Issues » [Ceres] apt: initramfs-tools post-installation error [SOLVED] » 2022-05-12 07:58:53

@fsmithred: the connection about usrmerge?
On french forum debian-fr.org, one user specifies que dm-verity use `mount` binary:

# dm-verity support
if [ "${DISABLE_DM_VERITY:-}" != "true" ] && [ "${DISABLE_DM_VERITY:-}" != "yes" ]
then
	[ "${QUIET}" ] || echo -n " dm-verity"
	manual_add_modules dm-verity
	# The BusyBox mount does not support dm-verity so we use the util-linux version.
	copy_exec /usr/bin/mount /bin
fi

On Devuan, the mount binary is not, by default, on /usr/bin/mount, just on /bin/mount. Either, I create a symlink or install usrmerge. I did not want to create a symbolic link, I installed usrmerge.

Before usrmerge:

$ which -a mount
/bin/mount

After:

$ which -a mount              
/usr/bin/mount
/bin/mount

#7 Re: Other Issues » [Ceres] apt: initramfs-tools post-installation error [SOLVED] » 2022-05-09 19:17:08

@rolfie: Daedalus is not an Unstable version. It's the future "stable", actual "testing".
See: https://www.devuan.org/os/releases

Installing the `usrmerge` package solves the problem; update continues without fails.

Hi, @Head_on_a_stick

From where did you obtain that hook? It shouldn't be present in an installed system.

I dont known!

Hi,

Today, during my weekly update, the process of apt fails with this error:

Same result!

For the `update-initramfs -uv` command, see the paste : https://0x0.st/omms.txt

How can I fix this?

#10 Re: Other Issues » [ceres] X session hang [SOLVED] » 2022-03-02 15:27:27

I solved this problem to reinstall xserver-xorg, xserver-xorg-input-all packages!

Now, this run correctly. big_smile

#11 Re: Other Issues » [ceres] X session hang [SOLVED] » 2022-03-02 14:37:10

but, slim start, it's not the problem. the problem is that keyboard, mouse not respond!
(same result if I use startx startxfce4 to connect directly on xcfe session... keyboard and mouse are not functionals)

#12 Re: Other Issues » [ceres] X session hang [SOLVED] » 2022-03-02 12:13:57

Hi.

for the rc-status, see https://0x0.st/oPZX.txt

I added dbus and elogind services:

# rc-update add dbus
* service dbus added to runlevel sysinit
# rc-update add elogind
* service elogind added to runlevel sysinit

after, reboot...
but same problem, no keyboard on slim! sad

#13 Re: Other Issues » [ceres] X session hang [SOLVED] » 2022-03-01 14:27:03

elogind is installed but cant run!

# service elogind status
elogind is not running... failed

# service elogind start
Starting session management daemon: elogind
elogind-daemon[2075]: Failed to connect to system bus: No such file or directory
elogind-daemon[2075]: Failed to fully start up daemon: No such file or directory

startx is not relevant, now? if not, how start X session ?

Hi,

I use Devuan Ceres. yesterday I upgraded my station by using the "full-upgrade" option to apt.
The process ran correctly, informed me than a new kernel (5.16) installed, and all needed services restarted.
Some packages are marked to uninstall...

My DE is XFCE, The service manager is OpenRC.

I rebooted on the new kernel. But, the X session cant start. Slim is show, but no keyboard input is working, as if it were physically disconnected.
I dont know how resolve this problem.

1/ the recovery mode run!

2/ keyboard and mouse run correctly on the terminal, but when the X start, those are not functionals.

I attempted to "reinstall" xserver-common, and "xserver-xorg-legacy" packages, but this not resolve.
If I start the X session by call "startd", Xfce session display but keyboard and mouse seems to deactivate. no response.

to make sure it's not a problem with the new kernel, I reboot under the old kernel (5.15.x): same problem; unable to connect because keyboard not responds.

I suspect a problem with dbus, because when I reinstalled "xserver-common" package, I've this message:

Reloading system message bus config... Failed to open connection to "system" message bus: Failed to connect to socket /run/dbus/system_bus_socket: No such file or directory
invoke-rc.d: initscript dbus, action "force-reload" failed.
Failed to open connection to "system" message bus: Failed to connect to socket /run/dbus/system_bus_socket: No such file or directory

How restore X session functional?

Hi all.

OK, before yours replies, I set the wpa_supplicant file config.
(today, I installed too connman; wicd seems not available - it's not the problem).

When I plug the dongle USB, it receives one adress IP, but not the gateway's one.
(but, my Android smartphone receive correctly the datas, and can connect on the Internet, for instance)

It seems when I connect with the dongle USB, it not receives or configure the default route:

$ ip route
192.168.xyz.0/24 dev wlx00e0250d7ef2 proto kernel scope link src 192.168.xyz.144 

When I use the ethernet wired:

$ ip route
default via 192.168.abc.1 dev eth0 
192.168.abc.0/24 dev eth0 proto kernel scope link src 192.168.abc.47 
192.168.abc.1 dev eth0 scope link 
192.168.xyz.0/24 dev wlx00e0250d7ef2 proto kernel scope link src 192.168.xyz.144 

One idea?
