@yes, it is functioning, but i would like still to install driver package, for better options etc. also duplex is otherwise sometimes greyed out.

#202 Re: Desktop and Multimedia » Sony Camera not recognized » 2020-10-19 20:00:34

i just checked on my older T60 running debian wheezy, and there the camera is perfectly recognized.

hello,

i am having the same problem.

is there a solution yet?

it happens after coming back from suspend; if i just disconnect the ethernet cable and reconnect, nothing happens, and wicd manager shows no ethernet connection at all.

my ethernet seems this one

#205 Re: Desktop and Multimedia » Sony Camera not recognized » 2020-10-14 20:00:38

sorry, but the camera shows only "USB-Mode   PTP/MTP"
                                                      "Speicherkarte - Wiederg. per "Wiedergabe" - Tastendruck" eg. "Memorycard - Playback via "Play" - Buttonpress"

if playbutton is pressed, the only think happens is that the internal display on the camera is being changed from the above message/statusscreen to the active fotomanager on the camera, eg. the photos are being displayed on-cam.

lsblk is giving the following output

lsblk
NAME   MAJ:MIN RM   SIZE RO TYPE MOUNTPOINT

└─sda5   8:5    0   2.9G  0 part [SWAP]

will check the next days on ubuntu after iget my cmputer back to see if it behaves there differently, but i believe so.

#206 Re: Desktop and Multimedia » Sony Camera not recognized » 2020-10-14 17:40:57

yes, both devices are usb-connected, and have proprietary cables (from what i understand > typically sony)
maybe i am doing something wrong wh, but i think the camera is instantly recognized on ubuntu with the same procedure.

the walkman has only internal flash installed (but can handle also additional micro-SD-card up to 2TB or maybe even more)
the camera has a 32gb old sd-card (the bigger ones) and probably no flash memory.

exfat-fuse and exfat-utils

seem already manually installed (maybe leftover from ascii installation?)

laptop T400 has 3 usb ports, it does not make a difference if ports are switched, camera not shown in filemanager.

hmm, strange, the sony mp4 player gets recognized and is shown in file manager xfce , the camera however not.
will do some more testing.
thanks for your help.

#208 Re: Desktop and Multimedia » Sony Camera not recognized » 2020-10-13 12:05:46

thank you,

i did not know this program,

and i don't like to download all fotos as it does now through terminal.

it like to show up the camera in file manager and select the photos myself.

#209 Re: Desktop and Multimedia » Sony Camera not recognized » 2020-10-13 11:23:11

i have upgraded the system on the laptop from Ascii to Beowulf, but that should not make a difference in recognizing the Camera;

the update process proceeded without any errors,

Thank you very much.

Hello ,

i would like to transfer the pictures from Camera Sony W830 to the laptop.

However, the PTP/MTP is not being recognized by Devuan 3.0 Beowulf and the Camera would not show up as an external storage (it should show from 30 to 32GB)

What am i doing wrong?

#211 Re: Hardware & System Configuration » Changing from amd to nvidia card » 2020-10-12 19:54:07

@head_on_a_Stick, thanks, good suggestion.

@blackhole, yes, probably unsupported, as i just installed devuan beowulf anew (with nividia 1650)
and it would not go into "X"; so i was greeted with terminal window instead;

installing

nvidia-driver

does not resolve, well at least it gives a graphical desktop, but blocks the terminal thereafter with "nvidia-persistenced".

if i need backports, i will try those.

EDIT: tried also installing the drivers from bakcports,
i am still getting "nvidia-persistenced" error.

please someone write a small guide on how to properly install nvidia-drivers, not just the legacy ones.

#212 Re: Hardware & System Configuration » Changing from amd to nvidia card » 2020-10-12 17:07:51

the graphics is rtx 1650

 lspci -nn | egrep -i "3d|display|vga"
07:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: NVIDIA Corporation Device [10de:1f82] (rev a1)

and debian wiki says

The proprietary "NVIDIA Accelerated Linux Graphics Driver" provides optimized hardware acceleration of OpenGL and Vulkan applications through either Xorg or Wayland. It is a binary-only driver requiring a Linux kernel module for its use.

Multiple precompiled driver versions are available for Debian 10 "Buster":

    Version 450.66 (supported devices)
        Supports Kepler, Maxwell, Pascal, and all current Turing GPUs. Supports Vulkan 1.2 and OpenGL 4.6.
        Note that 450.66 is currently only available in buster-backports.

alright, now i have everything installed, and next problem comes up:

how can i properly switch to nvidia card?
i have two monitors setup, and triple boot /(devuan , windows 7, ubuntu 18.04).

after changing from amd to nvidia card, only devuan seems to boot.

now, i suppose, i need to just to deinstall the firmware-amd-graphics on devuan and install nvidia driver package?
but what to do on ubuntu, if it would not boot properly, and on windows?

do i need to put the other card back in and preopare already the machine with the nvidia drivers in place?

thank you.

EDIT: i understand that the nouveau driver functions also so as it is,
but i tried with display manager on xfce to change the monitor setup, and the result was that i could not longer access most part of the screens that seemed somhow frozen and could only be maneauvred by clicking in the leftover part, practically clicking blind over the place -

#214 Re: Other Issues » how to get hibernation? » 2020-10-12 10:31:03

it functions however with

sudo hibernate --force

#215 Re: Other Issues » how to get hibernation? » 2020-10-12 07:51:54

on another laptop i have also problem with hibernation. it is running on devuan beowulf

sudo hibernate
hibernate:Warning: Tuxonice binary signature file not found.

#216 Re: Hardware & System Configuration » (Beowulf)(AMD RX550) AMD Firmware Bug? » 2020-10-11 16:19:04

alright,

now i tried with
kernel 5.7 and newer linux-amd-graphics from backports (thanks rolfie)

Linux Office-PC 5.7.0-0.bpo.2-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 5.7.10-1~bpo10+1 (2020-07-30) x86_64 GNU/Linux
firmware-amd-graphics is already the newest version (20200918-1~bpo10+1).

but the error remains

(0.00000) (Firmware Bug): (AMD-Vi) : IOAPIC(1) not in IVRS Table
          (0.00000) (AMD-Vi) : Disabling interrupt remapping

but it seems there is no major issues so i can live with that;
going to upgrade to Matisse soon, so maybe the error goes then away; the Bios is already quite the latest if i am not mistaken.

i had used fglrx driver before and also use the proprietary driver on ubuntu as i found it more responsive than the opensource,
also some features enable to use AMD VCE encoding in Handbrake (which is similare to quicksync and nvidia enc)
which opensource don't yet enable.

rolfie

thanks rolfie,

but how could i do that?

there is no "ukuu" on devuan?
don't find any mentioning of beowulf backports?

how to easily upgrade the kernel then?

Read Altoid's link, it has the answer you need. Here is a more direct version: https://superuser.com/questions/1052023 … ivrs-table

hello,

i did use the link from rolfie's last post here

https://dev1galaxy.org/viewtopic.php?id=3358

and did  the suggested

sudo apt install git
git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-firmware.git
cd linux-firmware/
sudo cp -va amdgpu/ /lib/firmware/
sudo update-initramfs -u
reboot

but things would remain the same.

#221 Re: Hardware & System Configuration » (Beowulf)(AMD RX550) AMD Firmware Bug? » 2020-10-11 15:17:22

Hello Altoid,

thanks for your replay,
no, it is no laptop, just an non-OEM-desktop with an AM4 Motherboard (lowcost) and A10-9700 APU.

The system is functioning, but the graphics i thought would be more responsive -
infact, there are no issues besides one with SVP4Linux, but this could well be related to an older Python version, but i suspect also the Open Source AMD Driver for the poor performance -
actually the same error comes up in Ubuntu 18.04, even with the AMD Graphics Pro Driver Stack installed for the RX550,

so most probably the error [Firmware BUG] is not related to the Graphics card, but to the APU itself?
i read somewhere that the Bristol Ridge is somehow unsupoorted, on Linux, as it is on Windows 8.1 (definitely unsupported)

it is functioning, yes, but the error message made me wonder if there is something going wrong here with the graphics.

#222 Re: Hardware & System Configuration » (Beowulf)(AMD RX550) AMD Firmware Bug? » 2020-10-11 11:58:20

there is additional line

AMD-VI: disabling interrupt remapping

----------------
i am using devuan beowulf

Linux Office-PC 4.19.0-11-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.19.146-1 (2020-09-17) x86_64 GNU/Linux

graphics card seems recognized by "lspci"

Hello,

i upgraded my computer from internal graphics by adding a Graphics Card AMD RX 550.

Now when i start the boot process shows somehting like

Firmware Bug: AMD-VI: IOAPIC(1) not in IVRS Table 

is there something wrong?
i had installed the AMD GRaphics Firmware already i believe.

thank you.

I doubt if the automatic configuration of the partitioning would have allowed for your wish to use swap for hibernation.

sorry, but i don't understand,
i was under the impression that the ratio on debian/ubuntu for automatic partitioning > swapfile size is around 1:1.5 (memorysize:swapfile) .. it should hence be around 4.5 GB with 3GB RAM.
