Don't reboot with the machine plugged in and charging. That sudden jump in percentage may have been caused by your battery being flooded with power during the reboot cycle. That will kill the battery *very* quickly indeed. And when I say "kill" I actually mean "potentially explode" (yes, really).

Check /sys/class/power_supply/BAT0/energy_full_design and compare it to /sys/class/power_supply/BAT0/energy_full to see how much damage has been sustained.

With an empty battery or a full battery that might be possible, but in between I cannot see how that would happen unless the psu delivered huge fault currents into the battery

#27 Re: Hardware & System Configuration » HP 360 Envy power settings Q » 2023-01-01 16:18:54

well it was charge_full and charge_full_design, they both report 3242000, so thankfully a sane psu design.

#28 Re: Hardware & System Configuration » HP 360 Envy power settings Q » 2023-01-01 15:59:48

That gives me some things to look at.

It stayed at 7% for about an hour, I got frustrated and rebooted, it came straight back up to 38%, so the panel thingy in bottom right had been lying to me for most of that hour.

your link took me after a little look to this page:
https://docs.xfce.org/xfce/xfce4-power-manager/faq

It seems to be that daedalus is missing pm-utils, the rest seems to be systemd tentacles. I will install that and monitor behaviour on low battery and unplugged.

As a separate note, I do like being able to keep laptop batteries charged between 60%min, 80-85%max, it makes the battery last so much longer.

Eventually I will have to tinker to make that possible here too.

Hi,

System nearly how I want it, but this morning the battery ran low, but not empty.
I plugged it back into the charger, and it displayed charging, but the update to the percentage is very very slow, and I do not know where it is set.
As a consequence of getting below 10%? it would not connect to the wifi, so unable to search on there for an answer

So where should I be looking on a Daedalus XFCE and lightdm build to tinker with the battery charge status update interval, and or change the percentage threshold for this?

The settings editor GUI does not have this number available, unless the name is misleading and I have glossed past it?

#30 Re: Hardware & System Configuration » [SOLVED] HP envy 360 with ryzen and radeon multiple issues Q » 2022-12-31 18:15:50

well I installed libmtp-runtime.
then reinstalled firmware-realtek
and rebooted, solved, I now have wifi too.

#31 Re: Hardware & System Configuration » [SOLVED] HP envy 360 with ryzen and radeon multiple issues Q » 2022-12-31 17:17:06

finally half sorted, I had to comment out the daedalus-updates line,

Then it let me update a file,
Then I listed apt list *amd*
and found firmware-amd-graphics, which it did not call me out and say it was upgradeable...

Anyway I have some acceptable resolution now, so easier to find out what is wrong with gdebi, as a way of updating the wireless.

following this thread:  https://dev1galaxy.org/viewtopic.php?id=4900

The final suggestion from HOAS did not work for me...

so I tried an install of gdebi again, this time it pulled in lots of stuff, and worked, yay

I have the mx19 and the mx21 deb files, does it matter which one I use?
I am hoping this will work too.

I have revisited dmeg | grep firmware, there is a missing driver for an rtw_8822be
and also an error in the mwrepo.com/mx/repo/pool/main/r/rtl8821ce returned exit status 10

Then a warning about repository not having a release file, and the update cant be done securely

With broken wifi, and waiting for an ebay usb/ethernet dongle, copying is going to be painful and slow

#33 Re: Hardware & System Configuration » [SOLVED] HP envy 360 with ryzen and radeon multiple issues Q » 2022-12-31 16:18:37

Well I have been following instructions.

I have found out that it is not pulling in the non-free that is declared in the sources.list
it already had

deb http://deb.devuan.org/merged daedalus          main contrib non-free

even before I did the update & upgrade tango

The scripts, even on this site call for linux-headers-$(uname-r), but for some reason, on this iso it does not work.
I have now found I do have the latest headers when I can fix the problem with gdebi on xfce.

But before that I need to fix the resolution. It has not pulled in the non-free, so presumably I need to force it to understand what hardware is present.

#34 Re: Hardware & System Configuration » [SOLVED] HP envy 360 with ryzen and radeon multiple issues Q » 2022-12-31 15:52:59

Am I better off re-installing as Chimeara? Daedalus seems not quite ready yet for less mainstream kit.

Have a look at https://www.devuan.org/os/packages. For Daedalus the sources.list must contain the main repo line only.

deb http://deb.devuan.org/merged daedalus          main contrib non-free

That will do the job.

Well it has that in the list, and somehow it has got the linux headers in advance of the current install:
uname -r by itself works, and tells me 6.0.0.6-amd64

whilst as part of a script it fails, grr,
but apt install linux-headers-6.0.0.6-amd64 tells me the system is already at the newest version, 6.0.12-1. which surely wont work?

well I removed all linux headers, then added
apt install linux-headers-6.0.0.6-amd64
and ended up with the same headers, so they must be right.

First step is getting the amd non-free binary installed I think.

#36 Re: Hardware & System Configuration » [SOLVED] HP envy 360 with ryzen and radeon multiple issues Q » 2022-12-31 15:05:17

well dmesg | grep firmware tells me that the firmware didnt get installed along the way.
The iso did give some error messages about a list that was missing, but that was two or three days ago

Ahh, just done an update again, and it tells me that deb.devuan.org/merged daedalus-updates Release gives a 404, and then does not have a release file, so cannot update securely

So I need to fix the updates first so that it can get to non-free somehow, then I may be able to see what I am doing, these days I find the 1024x768 postage stamp display hard to work with...

etc/apt/sources.list has deb.devuan.org/merged daedalus(&-updates, on the next line) main contrib non-free    ( all enabled)

Hi

bought a cheap light laptop recently, trying to get Daedalus onto it currently.

The native resolution of the display is 1980x1080, BUT xrandr insists it is only capable of 1024x768, makes it hard to do things as it makes a lot less text visible, any tips to force it to behave? I found some posts from 2017, but it just said change the config, but did not name the files that held the config...

Also, currently the wifi does not work, so I need to update the realtek driver, but having problems getting xfce/thunar to run gdebi.

Also having problems getting linux-headers-$(uname -r) to work, it seems to not see the $(anything) part, any ideas how to fix that?

currently running the mobile tethered to it, so unable to easily copy across any info from it.

Any usable suggestions welcome, would like to learn how to fix these issues.

#38 Re: Installation » [SOLVED] Daedalus5preview installation failure Q » 2022-12-30 01:51:00

I tried again and it worked the second time, so just an unknown error along the way. I am now thinking it was either what you found or finger trouble.
The last few months I have done over 60 VM's just to try out the different flavours of OS available. This is one of the ones I want to stick with.

#39 Re: Installation » [SOLVED] Daedalus5preview installation failure Q » 2022-12-29 20:32:57

The idea was to spin up a bunch of different VM's to see which ones I would like to install properly later.
To that end it has worked quite well for me. I have seen a bunch I know I do not want to try.

Not yet ready for full on customisation, so I need it to be close to how I want my desktop to look.

also have used virtualbox before where the company I was working for at that time wanted a bunch of VM's to do some stuff while using windows boxes. Their company, their rules...

I have just tried
devuan_daedalus_5.0.preview-20221226_amd64_desktop.iso

in a Virtualbox VM, most of my other installs go smoothly, but this one has got stuck at the end of the install process.
I chose runit as the init system to try that out, but it might not be the cause of the problem.

It stops at the command line after the install is complete and it has kicked off the iso.
If I log in as me, the password is accepted, but startx does not do anything.

There are also mentions of apparmor during the boot process.

I have had enough of my current Linux install, so I have spun up a collection of VM's to see which ones I could use long term.

So I have Chimaera nstalled as Cinnamon, Mate, LXQT, Ghost BSD, Trisquel, and some others. They all have 1 core, 8Gb of Ram, 80Mb of Video to emulate a similar fairly heavy workload.

The LXQT version takes about 4 secs to come up according to the dmesg logs:

That is fine, and comparable to the other VM's

The desktop comes up and is fully decorated at about that time, BUT it takes at least another 10-20 secs before the mouse is able to select anything, eg start menu.

Any ideas what or where I should be looking for that delay just in the LXQT version?

Once that initial delay is over it is then quite snappy, faster than cinnamon for sure.

with today's larger drives, the CHS figures are always a fudged number. You need to dig into the definitions of all of these numbers in all the modes. There used to be a program that would let you unravel the numbers that work, but I cant remember what it was called. I will try and look though my older files to see if I can find it.

The same happens to everyone not using a US keyboard, the easiest way to make sure it does not catch you out is to turn on the "show password" option when choosing the root and user passwords. the install starts by assuming it is a US keyboard, and keeps to that right up until it writes everything to disk.
No easy way to solve this, but just keep remembering to make passwords visible on the screen when you create them

#45 Re: Installation » Daedalus install into Virtualbox Q » 2022-11-07 18:57:43

Well that seems to be working, a suggestion on the password pages, change the "Show password" tick box to be before the password entry, and change the message to let anyone not using a US keyboard  that they should try and use this option! It caught me out first time though.
Thanks for the help.

Hi,

I have a laptop with 2 drives in it, a 250Gb nVME and a 1TSSD, anyway I did something (unknown) silly and it will not boot at all,

It did have Beowulf,as that was current at installation. I have separated out the files so that the ssd was for data storedaway from the home directory. I want to save as much as possible from /Home/Me as possible, but fully expect to do a fresh install of Chimera.
Can I trust the inbuilt install guide not to wipe the ssd when I want the os on the nvme.

I know I will have to use a live installation to copy out from /home/me.

Any other suggestions?

I am trying a dry run of the install by trying to install the Daedalus ISO into virtualbox to see if it is stable enough with my usecases.
Anyway I kept ending up in the UEFI shell, so gave up on the realistic install and tried a fresh VM using legacy, that kept coming up as not bootable.
The ISO was:
devuan_daedalus_5.0.preview-20221031_amd64_pool1.iso

Any easy tips?
The current computer is Linux mint 20.04,and achive manager is too dumbed down to let you see hidden files, and compress does not allow iso's either.
I copied in the uefi and other folders from a debiam iso and used mkisofs, but that did notwork.

Is there a simple way to make sure I copy a suitable ISO from the mirrors, or some straightforward instructions to convert?

that shows two succesive attempts at connection.

so lsblk shows the 3.2GB fat partition, gparted thinks it is only 512b in size, but the kobo starts up and runs so the card is still ok, It also was ready to load and update through windows.

fdisk cant see it properly, all I can think is that the usb handshakes are being mis-interpreted?

Hi,

Mixed news, I used another (Larger) micro sd card, ended up putting about 30Gb of files (~18K files), The kindle did slowly load them, but crashed within a few days. Ended up needing to do a factory reset, and it has now been recognised by this laptop!
