Do you get audio on other devices, like a speaker or plug in earphones if you have them?

#3 Re: Hardware & System Configuration » Bluetooth issue with Devuan 5 Daedalus » 2024-04-09 00:46:19

Ralph i wonder if it is as simple as having this MultiProfile = multiple in the /etc/bluetooth/main.conf

Perhaps ubuntu ships with the multiple profile support and debian does not?

# Enables Multi Profile Specification support. This allows to specify if
# system supports only Multiple Profiles Single Device (MPSD) configuration
# or both Multiple Profiles Single Device (MPSD) and Multiple Profiles Multiple
# Devices (MPMD) configurations.
# Possible values: "off", "single", "multiple"
#MultiProfile = off

I had a similar issue with a xbox bluetooth gamepad and had to configure the main config file like so to keep a stable bluetooth connection.
Do note that below are my edits for the xbox gamepad and I have only copied in those edits not the entire main.conf file. It might be worth comparing the file /etc/bluetooth/main.conf from ubuntu for your bluetooth headphones and seeing if there are any differences.

# Default device class. Only the major and minor device class bits are
# considered. Defaults to '0x000000'.
#Class = 0x000100
Class = 0x000100

# Permanently enables the Fast Connectable setting for adapters that
# support it. When enabled other devices can connect faster to us,
# however the tradeoff is increased power consumptions. This feature
# will fully work only on kernel version 4.1 and newer. Defaults to
# 'false'.
#FastConnectable = false
FastConnectable = true

# - off: Local privacy disabled.
# - limited-device: Apply Limited Discoverable Mode to advertising, which
# follows the same policy as to BR/EDR that publishes the identity address when
# discoverable, and Device Privacy Mode for scanning.
#
# Defaults to "off"
#Privacy = off
Privacy = device

# Specify the policy to the JUST-WORKS repairing initiated by peer
# Possible values: "never", "confirm", "always"
# Defaults to "never"
#JustWorksRepairing = never
JustWorksRepairing = always

Might be a good idea jue-gen, make it a sticky when incidents of note arise.

Perhaps admin might sticky this one instead of having more of these threads pop up, at least until this category 5 hurricane of an exploit is fully fleshed out and realized. No disrespect siva but this is about the 5th thread on this subject.

Have you tried installing via blender method? Works for me on Daedalus.I've read the preferred way of installing blender is via blender.org not from the debian repos as blender use there own versions of python libraries. Not sure on the specifics.

Sounds like team usrmerge vs team dpkg. From what i have read the dpkg maintainers are not going to provide a patch or any kind of fix. I think team usrmerge to rethink their goals, dpkg is a core debian component and this usrmerge is breaking user space.

#12 Re: News & Announcements » Forum search tips and tricks » 2024-01-10 02:43:55

I haven't really used the forum search function that much, but the times i have used it was ok. But in regards to 3rd party search engines, the duck (duckduckgo) is pretty good and a bit more comprehensively readable searching this way in my opinion.

For example this one line just searches dev1galaxy only, for the keyword 'boot'.

boot site:dev1galaxy.org

Only showing results from dev1galaxy.org

Or use the ducks bang feature.
!dev1galaxy boot

#13 Re: Off-topic » waylandows is crap » 2024-01-02 22:32:19

I dont quite understand how dpi works with wayland but when i tried sway, i put dpi at 101 and fonts looked terrible on firefox and everywhere else, more noticeably firefox though, but puting the dpi back to 96 corrected the shitty scaling. Is it a case of adjusting fonts on wayland instead to get better font readability?

#14 Re: Other Issues » [SOLVED] A folder with no name » 2023-12-19 09:38:39

It was an empty environment variable set by the fff script because im using trash-cli i left it blank but with a space. In the script it calls mkdir -p $FFF_TRASH and i suppose if left empty with a space it creates the folder every time the script is run. Sorry for the noise, solved.

#15 Re: Other Issues » [SOLVED] A folder with no name » 2023-12-19 09:03:33

I figured it out, ive recently been using this terminal file manager called fff and it is the cause somehow.
https://github.com/dylanaraps/fff
I deleted the directory and started fff up again and it creates it everytime, i only notice because i switch between fff and pcmanfm. Maybe fff needs this directory or maybe there is a bug in the script, ill have to investigate.

Thanks siva, ill have a look into those options, im hoping its nothing to do with malware.

aluma, its in the home folder. I deleted it and reboot today and same story. It has the same rights my user has for all files in home, that being unix file permission 755.

A folder with no name has been appearing for the last week or so, i cant figure out why. Its just an empty directory and has no name just a few spaces for the folder name.

I delete it and reboot the next day and its back again. Just running stable Daedalus branch using sysvinit.

Must be some setting or program somewhere doing this, any ideas ?

If you want to find someone who is trustworthy for linux info, never trust a far right nutcase like him.

Except Luke actually includes technical, educational content in some of his videos, where the aforementioned Brodie has silly faces, hype, and clickbait.
I'll take a 'tuber with intense (but ultimately irrelevant) political leanings who knows what they're talking about over a politically "correct" one who doesn't any day of the week.

Ive learnt quite a bit from Luke, only just found out about mental outlaw. Im not aware of there political leanings nor do i care either.
Another tuber ive learnt quite a bit from is Gavin Freeborn, really good no nonsense content.

#20 Installation » Refractainstaller - luks encryption » 2023-11-19 04:13:34

Just a query here as i was a bit stumped today when i was trying out refractainstaller base and gui. I figured out my issue with installation so just why im querying here.

On the system i snapshot i have --no-install-recommends as a flag in apt.conf.d, this is a spare computer i set up with no encryption and wanted to test refractasnapshot and installer as a backup option on the same computer but this time with encryption. So all i installed for that before the snapshot was cryptsetup and as is the case the install didnt bring in cryptsetup-initramfs due to --no-install-recommends.

The snapshot went ok and i proceeded to install on another computer, the installation went fine with refractainstaller gui and base ( i installed twice using both methods to be sure) until i tried booting and it went straight to initramfs prompt and couldnt find the luks encrypted device.

I know this is an edge case but it seems due to my error of not including cryptsetup-initramfs is the main problem in why the boot failed. Just thought maybe a little note could be used to prompt the user that cryptsetup-initramfs is not installed when using sys encryption options similar to grub-efi prompt in the refracta script both gui and cli?

Thanks

Newer Dell inspiron laptops are ok in my experience with daedalus. Maybe stay clear of anything intel and nvidia wink.

#23 Re: ARM Builds » [SOLVED] X server / X11 / Xorg / X not running rootless by default? » 2023-09-28 11:34:41

I think you need to back up a bit.

- Could it be wiser to keep xserver-xorg-legacy because parts of my system were not responding?

What parts?

The long story:  I noticed cwm acting up;  my key bindings for some applications didn't respond, etc,

What keybinds are not responding and what does your .cwmrc look like?

Ive used cwm in the past, ill will try and help you as i have system running now that does not involve the use of xorg-server-legacy and i use dwm as window manager and all my keybinds are working and i login using startx.

#24 Re: ARM Builds » [SOLVED] X server / X11 / Xorg / X not running rootless by default? » 2023-09-24 09:46:08

what is the output of below command, you should not need xorg wrapper.

#25 Re: Hardware & System Configuration » [SOLVED] Dell Inspiron 14 (2 in 1) » 2023-09-23 08:02:06

Thanks for the info ralph, my first install must have been user error or something I cant pinpoint where i went wrong.

Ive successfully installed devuan this time around with a newly downloaded Daedalus iso. I used the guided installer, said yes to installing grub in the efi path and yes to booting devuan from nvram. I think i may have screwed those two options up last time causing a kernel panic, unsure.  I didnt need to load the nvme module or anything like that so the installer must have picked that up.

Edit: very happy now, Devuan has everything i need without having to install packages outside of the package manager like i was doing with artix linux/aur.
