Free Speech / Re: Hey My Fellow Sids!

« Last post by RunLevelZero on Today at 00:06:45 »

Two quick things I realized. First I don't dist-upgrade like I said previously lol. I full-upgrade once a week. Also, and this got me when I first started using Siduction, before a full-upgrade, log out and drop to a tty and "init 3". I didn't do this and lost my DE. It may not be necessary every time but I do it to be safe. I would also RTFM. It'll benefit you later if you decide to keep Siduction.

I think you'll find Siduction rock solid. Sure there's an occasional hiccup but there never fatal if you pay attention. Be sure and watch the Upgrade Warning thread. If there is a problem you'll likely see there and likely a solution as well.

I've never tried a full on Arch install. I install Manjaro a while back and it was nothing but problems. Polkit would not start on boot so no root access. After spending the time to learn most of the package management system, getting update and set up to where I could actually use it I found it way too buggy and abandon it.

I distro hopped for years. I've used Linux since 1999. I used Slackware for years and then went to a LAN party and was shown the beauty of Debian. I hopped Debian distros for years and landed on Mint Debian edition for a while. I like latest and greatest and found siduction back in oh, 2017 I think. I haven't looked back and only installed a new distro on a ventoy USB stick to play with and then I'm back to my SID. Like the others have said, updates are a part of this, but then you get the latest and greatest, if you know how to manage your OS then you're golden, the community has been awesome for me and I always check the upgrade warning when there is a disturbance in the force. The latest was the 64 bit transition. Many dared to walk the path first and I am grateful. My system was at 900+ updates when I got ready to do the update. I did copy the to be removed and to be installed and checked every single one. It was tedious but I was confident in what was being removed and installed. Clicked the go button and had zero issues. Those who walked before me and provided info gave me the confidence. Not sure that helped AT ALL but just throwing in my vote to go for it. Run it on a system and force yourself to use that system for a few months. That should give you a good idea of life with Siduction. I dist-upgrade once week and during big transitions just apt upgrade until things settle, then dist-upgrade. That's the general rule besides check the upgrade warnings.

Yeah, when I was on arch, there's always something I was missing. Something that I never forgot from Squeeze days. apt. It's just drilled in my head. sudo apt _____

I'll try this out on my laptop, an old ThinkPad, before I dump Sparky.

Let us know how it goes.

Hardware - Support / Problems with AMD Graphics and Kernel 6.8

« Last post by finotti on 2024/05/16, 17:02:03 »

I have a AMD Navi 24 [Radeon RX 6300] card that does not work on any version 6.8.* kernel.  At first I thought it was due to the fact I was using multiple monitors and cards, but even a single monitor connected to the AMD card does not work.  It works without problems with versions 6.7* or earlier.

Here is some information about the system:

I cannot even boot into a VT with the boot option '3', as I get only a blank screen.   And I see no relevant error with "journalctl -p err -b".

Any suggestions?

Upgrade Warnings / Re: Nvidia-Treiber Modulbau schlägt mit Kernel 6.8 fehl

« Last post by michaa7 on 2024/05/16, 14:55:38 »

I thought there  was need for a new patch from nvidia to make it work with 6.8.x and therefor was waiting for new nvidia packages all the time.  I may have misunderstood one of your postings ...

Anyway, modules for 6.8.x are build and system is rebooted ... all is fine.


Thanks
