System upgrading / Re: Problem with updating/upgr...
Last post by joealuminium - March 19, 2025, 08:08:39 PMThe problem has gone away. I'd just started to look at the reply from AxL and thought I'd give it a try again before doing anything and all was OK.

Last post by AxL - March 19, 2025, 07:43:10 PMQuote from: joealuminium on March 19, 2025, 07:09:32 PMI've been using SparkyLinux for a while now and I've always updated via the command line as root using

As far as I'm aware nothing on my system has changed since last time I did this.
Can anyone help?
Well, it seems that there is an obvious problem with the certificate:
See also:
SSL Server Test: repo.sparkylinux.org (Powered by Qualys SSL Labs)
- To try to fix this, you can change/use a different mirror. Such as one of these:
Code Select
https://de2.repo.sparkylinux.org/
https://sf1.repo.sparkylinux.org/
- You can change it in: /etc/apt/sources.list.d/sparky.list
- See also: Repository_Stable - [Sparky Wiki]
Good luck !!
Cheers !!

Last post by AxL - March 19, 2025, 03:57:48 PMAnd here are the images of how repos should be set up:
And finally, a recommendation. If you plan to continue using testing.
Try to keep your system up to date. And at least update the system once a week, so you will avoid problems
Cheers !!

System upgrading / Problem when upgrading Sparky ...
Last post by paul74 - March 19, 2025, 09:42:27 AMHello,
I try to upgrade Sparky 8 installed since several months but not used for a long time.
On the terminal, I get :
I try different thing before opening this topic :
sudo cp /usr/share/keyrings/sparky.gpg.key /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/sparky-linux.asc
and then :
Change the GPG key in the source list:
sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list.d/sparky.list
from:
signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/sparky.gpg.key
to:
signed-by=/etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/sparky-repo.asc
I also try to inactivate firewall.
But I still have the problem.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Introduction / Hi everyone! It's Alive!
Last post by dobesov - March 15, 2025, 04:34:16 AMHi guys, I just wanted to say I brought an old NEC Z1 back to life with Sparky. Yeah a 450mhz Pentium 3 upgraded with 512 megs of RAM. I use the machine to play Mp3s to a radio broadcaster to tune in to the right ambiance in my Fallout themed garage bar. Sparky is my new favorite distro for anything light on resources. I adore having CDE desktop as an option. The only thing I'd love to see for my nefarious purposes is to have TWIN desktop as a precompiled option in the No GUI distro. I'd been using BODHI on low end systems before, but Sparky fits my niche so much better. Heck I'm contemplating tossing it on a refurbed HP z820 with 512 GB or ram I just threw together from ebay because I still love that CDE aesthetic on the old super computer.

Introduction / Re: Sparky is it!
Last post by Gerd - March 10, 2025, 06:10:06 PMMy Sparky sid now is one week young and i love it.
With only installed what i want in xfce it's elegant and fast.
Alongside my Sparky testing, that overlived my search for a working distro for my new
second hand machine, i tried siduction for a while. But i could not get warm with it.
It had not the performance like this i see now.
I am on board with Sparky now and very happy, my new machine is on the run...
