The problem isn't related to the Deepsea theme, it has something to do with that grub starts before / is being decrypted/available for access.

Fix: please read this thread https://dev1galaxy.org/viewtopic.php?id=3679

First of all compare data sheet read/write speeds of the NVMEs. I would guess the new large one is faster than the internal one.

I just replaced the 256G NVME WD Blue in my Aspire 5 against a 1T Crucial P5. It makes a difference.

#858 Hardware & System Configuration » Firewall on laptop with Chimaera » 2021-05-01 13:00:12

Replies: 5

I think I should install a firewall on my laptop, since it will be used in open networks connecting via wifi. This is a new situation for me. My desktops at home do not have a firewall installed, I rely on the one in the DSL modem and the ethernet router behind that. So far I never had any issues.

What is a recommendable firewall with an easy way to enable for wifi traffic? Is UFW/GUFW good enough and state of the art?

Thanks, rolfie

#860 Re: Desktop and Multimedia » Copy files from a playlist to a USB device » 2021-04-30 16:54:12

My intention is just to copy the files listed in the playlist, and not all the CDs from the server. Simple reason being space available.

Thanks for the link to Stackexchange. At first sight rsync looks promising, at least it might allow for using the specs in the m3u file. I have started to fiddle with the example given there and tried to adapt it to my needs. But its not exactly going as I would expect.

As a start I have reduced the list of files to be copied to 3 to be able to test the options. And I have prepared an empty space on a drive on my workstation. I have left out the sed stuff, since the 3 test files just contain a lot of spaces. Thought that should work. Something still isn't right.

~/Musik$ rsync -a --include-from=/home/rolf/Musik/Test.m3u --include='*/' --exclude='*' /srv/Audio/ /mnt/Daten/rolf/Audio --progress --prune-empty-dirs

#862 Re: Desktop and Multimedia » Copy files from a playlist to a USB device » 2021-04-30 12:59:06

The playlist is a selection of *.wav files, grown over the years from a Winamp playlist under Windows. On the server I have stored all the ripped CDs I own, one directory per CD. And yes, the paths and file names contain whitespaces and special characters all over. I don't want to copy every single file but just the ones listed in the playlist. And about 500 files manually ......

Thanks for your suggestion, but the MyMusic.m3u file isn't accepted as input for the copy operation. Here are 3 lines as they appear in the file: 

/srv/Audio/CDs/Adele - Adele21/Adele - Rolling in the deep.wav
/srv/Audio/CDs/Adele - Adele21/Adele - Set fire to the rain.wav
/srv/Audio/CDs/Adele - Adele21/Adele - Someone like you.wav
....

Or is is the only way to write a script that uses the file as input line by line?

@Ralph: thanks for the input. I was so deep in digging into the wlan issues that I forgot that my company laptops always did ask me to shut down wifi when having a lan connection established. I probably need to start from scratch again.

Isn't there a tool that does this switching sort of automagically if configured accordingly? Or do I have to re-invent the wheel? Is any of the network managers of any use in this case?

Well, I think I need a break now for a day or so. My brain is confused by too many different posts describing differernt ways.

See you later alligator.

This laptops wifi is causing me headaches. I thought I had a working route setting yesterday evening. Today its not working any more. In addition, the wifi is not connecting on boot as the LAN connection does.

Digging in the internet showed that routing must be the issue, and I found one or the other useful hint. I modified the /etc/network/interfaces like this:

# The primary network interface
allow-hotplug eth0
iface eth0 inet static
	address 10.5.5.31/24
	gateway 10.5.5.1
	# dns-* options are implemented by the resolvconf package, if installed
	dns-nameservers 10.5.5.1
	dns-search lan.atHome
	post-up ip route del default
	post-up ip route add default via 10.5.5.1 dev eth0

# WLAN @ Home
allow-hotplug wlan0
iface wlan0 inet static
	address 10.5.5.32/24
	gateway 10.5.5.1
	dns-nameservers 10.5.5.1
	dns-search lan.atHome
	wpa-ssid 	        SSID
	wpa-psk		passwd
	#up route add -net 10.5.5.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 gw 10.5.5.1 dev wlan0
	#down route delete -net 10.5.5.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 gw 10.5.5.1 dev wlan0
	post-up ip route del default
	post-up ip route add default via 10.5.5.1 dev wlan0

After a # service networking --full-restart I could ping the DSL modem and use FF to call up some pages.

Today the wifi does not really like to start up. I can get it to start up by a series of ifup wlan0 and ip link set wlan0 up, but I haven't found a clue why its not working sometimes. Also restarting the service fails, and the route always is via eth0.

Errors I am getting:
On ifup I get RTNETLINK: file exists, failed to bring up wlan0.
On the restart of the service I get: wpa_supplicant daemon failed to start, exited with return code 1.

I am a bit exhausted in the moment.

rolfie

BTW: is there a toolkit that allows to use the functions keys of the laptop that are triggered by FN-Fx under Windows in the same way in Debian/Devuan?

For the time being, I will stick with the static adressing. Thats not the issue. And I don't want to switch my complete home network from static to dynamic adresses right now. No time for this.

Head_on_a_Stick wrote:

I think the RTNETLINK error is because the gateway is defined twice.

Try using DHCP for the wireless interface.

Yes, can confirm this. BUUUT: when I remove the gateway definition in the wlan0 section, I can't get the interface to wake up again. Has cost me several minutes not to say hours now. So I have the message back and the wlan0 at least being recognised agaion by the router. Also I have looked a bit deeper into the routing issue and found one or the other bit of information in the internet. Unfortunatley, a lot of the stuff seems to be outdated, syntax no more correct .....

Made a little step forward by adding a route for wlan0:

route add -net 10.5.5.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 gw 10.5.5.1 dev wlan0
# route
Kernel-IP-Routentabelle

As it looks like now I can ping the DSL router, and a few things work on the internet. Strangely enough the 8.8.8.8 did not work, while google.com was resolved. Also tried to call up the magazine Spiegel with Firefox, adress isn't resolved. No idea why not.

Something still isn't right.

Also tried to add some routing ruies to the interfaces file, does not seem to work as expected.

up route add -net 10.5.5.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 gw 10.5.5.1
down route delete -net 10.5.5.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 gw 10.5.5.1

Where do I need to go from here?

Yes, I have removed the real contents and replaced it with dummy data. As I mentioned, the DSL router (a AVM Fritzbox 7580) sees my laptop (after some struggle) and also tells me which frequency the laptop is using. Also the IP is present.

Directly after the reboot the wifi is down. I have to wake it up, then the 5G connection is opened.

The if r brings an interesting fact to daylight: 

169.254.0.0/16 dev eth0 scope link metric 1000 linkdown

What is that? I am sure I never set this anywhere.

Edit: found an entry in the /etc/networks file: link-local 169.254.0.0. There are also some entries in /etc/network/-subdirs that refer to avahi. The scripts also contain a reference to these adresses.

Somewhere a route is specified that does only work with eth0.

Suggestions?

One problem is that the interface does not react to ip link set wlan0 up. The following two seem to do the job. First of all the wifi is enabled in the 5 GHz range, after a while it drops to the 2.4GHz range. ifup throws an error. Is that normal?

# ifup wlan0
RTNETLINK answers: File exists
ifup: failed to bring up wlan0
# ip link set wlan0 up

The laptop is seen on my DSL router with its IP, but I can't ping the router nor get any internet connection. Whats wrong, what am I missing?

Filled an Acer Aspire 5 with a Ryzen 5 4500U CPU and the iso from 16th. Had to fight the Bios to disable Secure Boot. Got Mate desktop working, OpenRC as init system. The boot stick was generated with rufus 3.13 from a Win7 PC.

Issues and observations: The Aspire 5 has no more CSM mode, its pure UEFI now. The installation works in efi mode, the efivars are present during the installation process. After the first boot I tried to write a modified efi entry with grub-install --bootloader-id=... and then tried to remove the original debian entry. efibootmgr told me that efivars are not supported. After a second attempt I found out that everything works fine when I mount the efivars manually. Since them all boots went fine with efivars mounted automagically.

On a soft start this laptop does not show any efi entry in the boot menu, its only present after a cold start.

Oh men! The problem is almost sitting in front of the system.

I would underline that.

You are NOT doing everything manually, you still use guided procedures. This option "Manual" in the installer is just an entry point. Select the device listed and play around with all options until you understand how to set everything according to your needs. Since its a VM you can't damage anything. If you fail, you can easily start again from the beginning.

Look at this page: https://www.devuan.org/os/documentation … all-devuan, topic 9. There you get the choice.
