Hello community,
My retro devuan 'chimaera' box is complaing about missing 'nouveau driver'
[ 15.415139] nouveau 0000:02:00.0: firmware: failed to load nouveau/nv98_fuc084 (-2)
[ 15.415147] firmware_class: See https://wiki.debian.org/Firmware for information about missing firmware

[ 15.415167] nouveau 0000:02:00.0: msvld: init failed, -19
According to this link
https://ubuntu.pkgs.org/18.04/ubuntu-mu … l.deb.html
The missing package's name should be 'nouveau-firmware'
However when I do a apt search for such a package.
I get zero hits back.
The missing firmware files should be in
/lib/firmware/nouveau/
However when I check for a nouveau folder under /lib/firmware
There is no folder called nouveau #
Questions:
In which repo do I need to look for the missing file name ?
Also since I am debian sources as a refernce.
Are there any diferent package name differences, which could also a reason for the missing firmware ?
Here is copy of sources list file just in case, if we need to double check them
sudo cat /etc/apt/sources.list

How do I please gain access to it ?
Is that via key combination such as 'ALT +F4" ?
the installer log for any relevant error messages
I am not sure if the installer generates any log files.
I guess this question is for someone, who is more in depth familiar with the installer 'under the hood'.
Have you tried assigning static addresses manually?
Yes, I also did try to set a static IP address - unfortunately also without any luck.
The actual URL from which you downloaded the "Net_boot image" would probably be useful. Ambiguity is almost always bad.
I downloaded the image from the this location
https://pkgmaster.devuan.org/devuan/dis … rd-images/
However I had to built my image from two separate components.
You need to get 2 files from http://deb.devuan.org/devuan/dists/beow … rd-images/ :
firmware.Lamobo_R1.img.gz
partition.img.gz2) No, dont extract them separately just follow the section 'NETBOOT IMAGE CREATION' on http://arm-files.devuan.org/README.txt:
After you downloaded those files, you will create the final image following this command, in the order bellow:
zcat firmware.Lamobo_R1.img.gz partition.img.gz > Lamobo_R1.img
Hello community,
I am trying to install Chimaera on my Lamobo_R1 board with the Net_boot image.
However the clock in the top right hand corner shows January 1st which makes me assume that the clock might be again stuck at 1970.
When the installer dialog comes to the network setup section, the installer ends up unable to detect any ip address via DHCP.
I already tried a few different USB NICs, without any success. However if I do plug in a lan cable directly or to a USB NIC, each time the leds do come up. However the installer can not receive a IP address.
My personal guess is therefore the clock which is probably stuck at 1970.
Can anyone please advise me to how to resolve this problem?
thx,user9898
Thx alot for the link, about the switching interface. I take look at it once I have the time for it.
Right now, there are two last items of iritation left, concerning the 'non-free contrib' entry in my sources lists.
if my source-list file looks like this

I therefore disabled the first entry in line 1.
Hope that is correct.
The second one is, if it should say beowolf or chimaera in the last line.
Hello tuxd3v
How have you done the upgrade from beowulf to chimaera?
I upgraded to to chimaera by editing the sources.list.
to so
GNU nano 5.4 /etc/apt/sources.list
# deb http://deb.devuan.org/merged beowulf main
deb http://deb.devuan.org/merged chimaera main
deb-src http://deb.devuan.org/merged chimaera main
deb http://deb.devuan.org/merged chimaera-security main
deb-src http://deb.devuan.org/merged chimaera-security main
# beowulf-updates, previously known as 'volatile'
deb http://deb.devuan.org/merged chimaera-updates main
deb-src http://deb.devuan.org/merged chimaera-updates main
What is your hardware board?
The name of the board is a Lamobo R1 by Leemaker
Some source's also call it BPI-R1 http://www.banana-pi.org/r1.html
I finally managed to establish some connectivity by using one of my old USB Nic interfaces, luckly I found one with a none Realtek chip.
Next I created a udev rule to give this new interface a custom name for better control over it.
From there I kept missing add a extra entry into the interface file.
eg let's say I gave the new interface the name of 'eth-x' I than forgot to add a extra line for eth-x.
iface eth-x inet dhcp
Once I added that line, the service networking restart, finally picked the new interface up and included it in the DHCP process.
Also thank you for the hint about
main non-free contrib
I was actually missing that enty.
I added it like so
deb http://deb.devuan.org/merged beowulf main non-free contrib
Hopefully that is correct for Chimaera? Or should it say instead of Beowolf or Chimaera ?
Hello tuxd3v and community,
I am dealing with two parts of one problem here.
First is the RTC which is set to 1970 once the board boots up.
I am currently looking for ways to set it up manually and to store the time information in such a way that the RTC will be set to the correct time after a reboot.
Once the RTC problem is resolved the board should be able to receive IP Addresses via DHCP.
The second problem is the missing realtek driver.
Since the board, in it current state, can not communicative to the web, it therefore can not download any firmware updates.
Nor with a dynamic IP address or with a manually set one
One solution could be to download the driver it manually as a .deb file.
The problem here is that I do not know on which server and path to look for it.
Another solution could be to built the package myself,with debuild.
Her another problem would be the architecture.
Since I am not very experienced with debuild.
Thx,user9898
I think you should comment out that second eth0 configuration; if you need both ipv4 and ipv6 you'll need to combine them into a single configuration block, e.g. with "up" statements dealing with ipv6.
Do you have files in /etc/network/interfaces.d/ ? Where do the vlan adapters come from .. or what they are? Eg wan@eth0
EDIT: it looks like some kind of "openwrt" setup; could you post /etc/config/network if you have one?
No, I do not have any files in /etc/network/interfaces.d/
I changed to the configurating to this.
cat interfaces
# This file describes the network interfaces available on your system
# and how to activate them. For more information, see interfaces(5).
source /etc/network/interfaces.d/*
# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
# The primary network interface
allow-hotplug eth0
#iface eth0 inet dhcp
iface eth0 inet static
address 192.168.178.37
netmask 255.255.255.0
gateway 192.168.178.1
Have you tried removing the IPv6 configuration? Do you need IPv6?
I did not try to remove the IPv6, but I no problem removing it.
Since I can always add it back to the system.
Do static addresses work? My old router used to "run out" of DHCP slots so perhaps check that as well.
I usually tell my router to use DHCP and on top of that I tell it to, to always issue the same IPs to the devices, otherwise all of port-forward settings would end up in a major mess.
Yes, there is a cable pluged-in.
cat interfaces
# This file describes the network interfaces available on your system

source /etc/network/interfaces.d/*

OH NO!!!
How could I miss that?!?
Yeah after installing ntp and ntpstat, the apt updates stopped complaining. And the 'apt search' also finally found the firmware-realtek package.
sudo dmesg | grep rtl

hi,
The ' / -maxdepth 4 -name rtl8192cufw_TMSC.bin -o -name rtl8192cufw.bin'
comes up with nothing.
And when I do a 'apt search' for the packag 'firmware-realtek' I also do get zero results back.
How should my 'sources list' look like
I changed to the following format.

First of all I would like to figure out which version the current firmware is.
Also I would like to know to which package the firmware belongs to.
Usually this firmware should be part of the ' firmware-realtek' package, bur when I do a 'apt search for the package I get zero results for it.
Do I now need to compile a newer version of the firmware into my system ?
By using the 'make defconfig' route ?
If yes, which version should I pick ?
Since the current kernel version is
Linux r1-devuan 4.19.0-17-armmp-lpae #1 SMP Debian 4.19.194-3 (2021-07-18) armv7l GNU/Linux
And the archive does not list a exact match for this patch version.
Thx for any responses.
Thx for your answers guys.
If upgrading is too dangerous though, how about doing a clean install with chimaera from scratch ?
I already dug a bit through ftp server's directory's, however without any luck locating a installer for chimaera.
I used a USB FTTDI interface and TeraTerm.
I also could have used Linux and Minicom, but the other was just simpler for me.
Maybe I should use this oppotunity to add another question below my previous post.
After I got the 'beowulf' working I discovered some information about the next release eg 'chimaera'
I than rewrote the source.list file by replacing every every line where it said 'beowolf' with 'chimaera'
and the upgrade went through, however with some minor error's
Last the kernel was upgraded to 5.10
and there where some error msg's about missing drivers.
right now I am stuck in a situation, where the interface eht0 receives a ip address and still can not 'talk' to the rest of the NW.
Right now i am going back and forward if I should rebuilt the SD card or continue to try to fix it.
Hello and sorry for my late reply.
I had to ask for someone to tell what the 'zcat' tool was for.
From there one on it all went smooth.
Devuan is now running fine on my R1 Board.
Thx for the help.

Hello community,
I want to use Devuan on my Banana Pi1 R1 board and the instruction for the sdcard write process are confusing me a bit.
Here are my questions:
1. Which image do I need to use ?
Do I need to use the u-boot image ?
2. Once I extracted both files, in which order do I need to write both files to my sdcard ?
thx for all answers,
user9898
Hello Community,
I installed Devuan on a old Acer Notebook AO751h which has a comes with a old Broadcom module (BCM4312)
During startup I get the following error message.
[ 19.402445] b43-phy0 ERROR: Firmware file "b43/ucode15.fw" not found
[ 19.402660] b43-phy0 ERROR: Firmware file "b43-open/ucode15.fw" not found
[ 19.402897] b43-phy0 ERROR: You must go to http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Dri … cefirmware and download the correct firmware for this driver version. Please carefully read all instructions on this website.
How do I please get it work ?
Do I need enable a special repository like on Debian by adding some special lines to my
sources.list
or do I need to download some kind of archive ?
Thanks and regards
