System upgrading / No sound after recent Sparky 8...
Last post by Bill Statler - September 03, 2023, 06:26:22 AM
I'm running Sparky 8 with MATE.

I did a normal system upgrade on 2023-08-27. Ever since, I haven't been able to get any sound from my system, no matter what I do with the sound preferences in mate-volume-control.

I have tried to figure out which upgraded package might have caused the problem. I believe the kernel was updated from linux-image-6.4.7-1-sparky8-amd64 to 6.4.12-1. And libasound2 was updated from 1.2.9-1 to 1.2.9-2.

I don't see any other upgraded packages that look like they're related to sound.

Two more system upgrades and reboots didn't solve the problem.

Right now, I'm just wondering if I am the only person who has this problem, or whether someone else has solved it and saved me a lot of work!

Thanks...

While trying to update the package list, I got this warning:

W: https://repo.skype.com/deb/dists/stable/InRelease: Key is stored in legacy trusted.gpg keyring (/etc/apt/trusted.gpg), see the DEPRECATION section in apt-key(8) for details.

Do I have to ignore it?

Thank you in advance for your reply.

Not only Skype but also google earth can display a similar message

A solution can be

Hi Henry,
The Skype devs configure their gpg key in old way, thats why you see that.
Even I put the key in right way, a next update of the Skype package put the key wrong back.
So, ignore it so far.

And if you use VLC or MPlayer to watch the video/movie you are referring to:

VLC
Menu Tools -> Preferences (Show settings = ALL) -> Video
Then on the right panel tick the Disable Screensaver option.



Save, exit and restart VLC for the change to take effect.



MPlayer
Add this code, to ~/.mplayer/config


heartbeat-cmd="xscreensaver-command -deactivate &"
stop-xscreensaver="yes"








Cheers !!

Assuming that you are using xfce Power-Manager and XScreensaver. See:

Newbie questions / NetworkManager crashes in Spar...
Last post by kerogaz - August 30, 2023, 10:31:08 AM
I can not configure static-ip manually in NetworkManager. It constantly shows automatic dhcp ip address, although ifconfig shows the correct ip.And that's why I can't access the internet. Now I use another harddisk with Debian 12 and from there I communicate with you.I remember I had this a long time ago on Debian 6 , then I killed NetworkManager.Maybe it's because it's a semi-rollingrelease? But I use the fully rolling release Archlinux with the latest kernels (maybe only Gentoo has newer kernels)and there is no such thing there, it works stab
