Sparky Linux kernel / Re: Kernel src-pkg for 6.6.66
Last post by pavroo - December 17, 2024, 09:45:10 AM
No, you are right, it is unpatched kernel, as all sparky's kernels.

Sparky Linux kernel / Kernel src-pkg for 6.6.66
Last post by hwd - December 17, 2024, 09:08:14 AM
Hi folks,

I could'nt find any sources for the kernel-version '6.6.66-sparky-lts66-amd64'.

Is it just an unpatched mainline kernel with customised version-string or have I missed something?

Thanks!

It seems that there is no interest in answering or solving anything.

Well, as I said earlier. My mates and I have no interest in donating any money either.

There is an open thread dealing with this issue:

https://forum.sparkylinux.org/index.php?msg=18273

 But I have a feeling, he's NOT going to do anything at all to solve it.






Cheers !!

Honestly, I have put the link to DDG (with five thread links [SOLVED]), because my knowledge in this matter is simply non-existent.

Therefore, as I have said, I do not know what you should do. I hope, that someone with more knowledge / skills, can provide you
 the solution to the problem.






Cheers !!

Installation / rEFInd, boot problem with OS o...
Last post by facciofinta - December 15, 2024, 01:30:51 PM
Hi, I need to add an option on rEFInd in order to boot on a SparkyLinux installed on a SD-card.

I've tried but there is a mistake which I cannot find.


What I did


I've search for the right partition, where refind.conf is located:

In terminal I wrote

sudo parted -l
And I found:

Model: ATA SAMSUNG SSD PM85 (scsi)

Disk /dev/sda: 256GB [...]

Number; 2, [...] Size: 105MB, File system fat32, Name: EFI system partition, Flags: boot, esp

Then:

sudo mkdir /mnt/efi
sudo mount /dev/sda2 /mnt/efi

and there I found the refind.conf


I looked for the SDA partition:

lsblk
and I found that the right partition is mmcblk0p1

NAME        MAJ:MIN RM   SIZE RO TYPE MOUNTPOINT

sda           8:0    0 238,5G  0 disk

├─sda1        8:1    0   300M  0 part

├─sda2        8:2    0   100M  0 part

├─sda3        8:3    0   128M  0 part

├─sda4        8:4    0  68,6G  0 part

├─sda5        8:5    0   1,9G  0 part [SWAP]

├─sda6        8:6    0 115,8G  0 part /

└─sda7        8:7    0  51,8G  0 part

mmcblk0     179:0    0  29,8G  0 disk

├─mmcblk0p1 179:1    0  28,9G  0 part

├─mmcblk0p2 179:2    0     1K  0 part

└─mmcblk0p5 179:5    0   975M  0 part


I've searched for .img and vmlinux in that partition:

sudo mount /dev/mmcblk0p1 /mnt
and there I found the /boot/initrd.img and the /boot/vmlinuz

and I typed on terminal

sudo blkid /dev/mmcblk0p1
and I found:

/dev/mmcblk0p1: UUID="4e0f44cd-99ff-4c8d-a12b-4c02f0a4ee44" TYPE="ext4" PARTUUID="579341c5-01"


I've tried to insert in the refind.conf



menuentry "Sparky GNU/Linux SD" {

    icon /EFI/refind/icons/os_linux.png

    volume "Sparky GNU/Linux SD"

    loader /boot/vmlinuz-6.1.0-25-amd64

    initrd /boot/initrd.img-6.1.0-25-amd64

    options "root=/dev/mmcblk0p1 ro"

}


or



menuentry "Sparky GNU/Linux" {

    icon /EFI/refind/icons/os_linux.png

    volume "Sparky GNU/Linux"

    loader /boot/vmlinuz-6.1.0-25-amd64

    initrd /boot/initrd.img-6.1.0-25-amd64

    options "root=UUID=4e0f44cd-99ff-4c8d-a12b-4c02f0a4ee44 ro"

}


but the result was always:

using load option... invalid loader. File not found while loading vmlinuz-6.1.0-25-amd64

Last post by facciofinta - December 15, 2024, 01:29:09 PM
I made a google search → https://www.debugpoint.com/failed-to-start-lightdm/ where it was said to do:
systemctl status lightdmResult:
Loaded: (/lib/systemd/lightdm.service; enabled; preset: enabled)
Active: failed (Result: exit code) since...
Process: 737 ExecStart=/usr/sbin/lightly (code=exited, status=1/FAILURE)
Warning: some journal files were not opened due too insufficient permissions
Then I checked
sudo journalctl -xeHere some "red" warnings:
Lightdm[611]: error getting user list from org.freedesktop.accounts: gdbus.error:org.freedesktop.dbus.error.serviceunknown: the name org.freedesktop.accounts was not provided by any .service files
Lightdm[611]: could not enumerate user data /var/lib/lightdm/data: error opening directory var/lib/lightdm/data : no such file or directory
Systemd[1]: lightdm.service: failed with result exit-code
And now? What can I do?

Sparky applications / Re: stremio fails to install
Last post by pavroo - December 13, 2024, 04:36:13 PM
Stremio is out of date, over 2 years no updates, so will be removed from sparky 8 repos and aptus.
Thanks for reporting.
