Hardware / Sound card not detected
Last post by Tman - August 12, 2024, 05:59:55 PM
Hello,
I just installed Sparky 8 Xfce and I am very satisfied with this promissing OS.
However, I encountered a strange problem : the sound card of my laptop is detected, see below, but, in the Settings of Audio mixer, I get a message, "no cards available for configuration" !
Therefore, I got no sound !
Yet, Inxi -F tells me :
Audio:
  Device-1: Intel Raptor Lake-P/U/H cAVS driver: sof-audio-pci-intel-tgl
  API: ALSA v: k6.10.3-amd64 status: kernel-api
What is the procedure to make my computer detecting the sound card ?
In the same laptop, I have another SSD with Mint 22 installed : the same sound card is properly detected and the sound works correctly.
Thank you for your help.
Cheers,
Tman

Newbie questions / brightness and backlight
Last post by polten77 - August 10, 2024, 05:11:20 PM
I have two questions.

Why you can change the brightness but not the backlight.

How do I fix the resetting of the brightness settings when I reboot?

I found a temporary solution to my problem

https://askubuntu.com/questions/203543/cant-remove-kernels-run-parts-etc-kernel-postrm-d-zz-update-grub-exited-with

+++++++++++
Option 2: If the above doesn't work:

Try renaming the grub script so it is bypassed. It isn't a long term solution but you may be able to run your updates.

sudo mv /etc/kernel/postrm.d/zz-update-grub /etc/kernel/postrm.d/zz-update-grub.bad
++++++++++++

Update done also linux-image-6.9.9-amd64 and linux-image-6.9.12-amd64 are removed.

I turned back the "bad script"

sudo mv /etc/kernel/postrm.d/zz-update-grub.bad /etc/kernel/postrm.d/zz-update-grub

I am trying  now to go further and solve some other problems ( related to the follow lines )

Found Linux Mint 21.3 Virginia (21.3) on /dev/sda8
Adding boot menu entry for UEFI Firmware Settings ...
error: syntax error.
error: Incorrect command.
error: syntax error.
Syntax error at line 602
Syntax errors are detected in generated GRUB config file.
Ensure that there are no errors in /etc/default/grub
and /etc/grub.d/* files or please file a bug report with

I have Linux Mint 21.3 Virginia (21.3) on /dev/sda8 but installed not in UEFI way ...

++++++++++++++
For grub-pc error problems seems that

https://askubuntu.com/questions/1316355/installed-grub-pc-package-post-installation-script-subprocess-returned-error-exi
and especially the follow suggestion

+++++++++++

Only solutions which I found it's remove .postinst files from /var/lib/dpkg/info/ for problematic packages. e.g. grub-pc.postinst file

Introduction / Hola form the Golden State
Last post by fkdup74 - August 06, 2024, 01:13:35 AM
Figure it would be more appropriate for me to register & intro than just lurk (like I did at Linuxquestions.org, don't kmow why).
Sparky seems to be where I'm settling in on 'nix after many, many trials with many, many distros.
And one sad affair with Windows that started back in '03, all the way to Win10. That was all I could tolerate from M$.
Still learning my way around Linux for the most part but I'll try not to ask too many stupid questions.
I did serve a year and a half as an IT assistant (in a Windows Server network, but hey...) way back in the day, so I'm at least a little resourceful.

System upgrading / Purpose of version update? Res...
Last post by piotrfr - August 04, 2024, 09:53:37 PM
Cel aktualizacji wersji?

Witam wszystkich.
Jestem na Sparky od dłuższego czasu i mam
głupia reakcja, aby uaktualnić moją wersję 6.6 (przekazaną w 6.7) z 7.4,
Testowałem też ósemkę z kręgli, ale wpakowałem się w kłopoty...
Poza tym, Pavrooo powiedział mi, że wersja 6.6 jest w porządku do czerwca 2026...
Posunąłem się nawet do formatowania mojego dysku twardego, z zapasami kopii zapasowych (lol),
zainstalować wersję 7.4 tak, że system jest na czystym pc!
Z wersjami 8 i 7.4, znacznie mniej łatwość obsługi,
instalacja i demontaż aplikacji... Wnioski, które nie
Nie działa czy źle, problem myszki, przepływ, ekran, blokada...
Mam też kłopoty z Synaptykiem, połamanymi plikami?
Mam powiedzieć, że to wina mojego komputera?
To przez mój sprzęt, czy popełniam błędy?
Teraz wróciłem do wersji 6.6...
Po otwarciu dy systeme: "GDBus.Error: org.freedesktop.PolicyKit1.Error.Failed: Agent uwierzytelniający już istnieje dla danego obiektu"???

Purpose of version update?

Hello everyone,
I've been on Sparky for quite a while and I've had the
stupid reaction to want to update my version 6.6 (passed in 6.7) with 7.4,
I also tested the 8 in the bowling, but I got into a lot of trouble...
Besides, Pavrooo told me that version 6.6 was okay until June 2026...
I even went so far as to format my hard drive, with backups of backups (lol),
to install version 7.4 so that the system is on a clean pc!
With versions 8 & 7.4, much less ease of operation,
installation & disinstallation of applications... Applications that do not
Not working or bad, problem of mouse, flow, screen, blockage...
I also run into trouble with Synaptic, broken files?, all these galeries that
Make me say maybe it's my pc's fault?
Is it because of my equipment or am I making mistakes?
Right now, I'm back with version 6.6...
A small popup appears after opening dy system: "GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.PolicyKit1.Error.Failed: An authentication agent already exists for the given subject" ???

A thousand excuses for online translation

Thank you all for the help and good day

Souci de mise à jour de version ?

Bonjour à toutes et tous,
Je suis sous Sparky  depuis pas mal de temps et j'ai eu la
réaction idiote de vouloir mettre à jour ma version 6.6 (passée en 6.7)avec la 7.4,
j'ai testé aussi la 8 en roolling, mais je me suis enlisé par plusieurs soucis...
De plus, Pavrooo m'a bien dit que la version 6.6 était ok jusqu'en juin 2026...
Je suis meme allé jusqu'à formater mon disque dur, avec sauvegardes des sauvegardes (lol), 
pour installer la version 7.4 pour que le systeme soit sur un pc "propre" !
Avec les versions 8 & 7.4, beaucoup moins de facilité au sujet du fonctionnement,
des installations & désinstallations des applications... Applications qui ne
fonctionnent pas ou mal, probleme de souris, de débit, d'écran, de blocages...
Je rencontre aussi des soucis avec Synaptic, fichiers cassés ?, toutes ces galeres qui
me font dire que c'est peut-etre de la faute de mon pc ?
Est-ce du à mon matériel ou est-ce moi qui fait des erreurs ?
En ce moment, je suis repassé avec la version 6.6...
Un petit popup apparait après ouverture dy systeme: "GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.PolicyKit1.Error.Failed: An authentication agent already exists for the given subject" ???

Mille excuses pour la traduction en ligne

Merci à toutes et tous pour l'aide à venir et bonne journée

I tried building this from github on sparky 6.7.... I had to give up because it requires a newer version of `xapp`  Perhaps someone could build this app into a snap or flatpack for me? 

Just because lximage-qt doesn't do cropping.  (I use LXQqt)

ok I installed tacentview from snap
snap run tacentview $somefile  seems to work ok
