Bug fstab no updated after plug in usb key (low ram)
Posted by: Rantanplan - 06-29-2024, 01:47 PM - Forum: User Feedback - Replies (1)

Hi dear John,

thanks for all.

In low ram mode.

I don't know if it is a "bug".

When I plug in a usbkey, this isn't automatically mounted.
I have to do "sudo make-fstab" then "sudo mount..." to access it.

Thank you.

Bests regards

Bonjour cher John,

Merci pour tout.

En mode Low RAM.

Je ne sais pas si c’est un « bug ».

Lorsque je branche une clé USB, celle-ci n’est pas automatiquement montée.

Je dois faire « sudo make-fstab » puis « sudo mount... » pour y accéder.

Merci.

Cordialement,

Hi people. I have a laptop with 2 GB of RAM and 2 cores of RAM. The question is, which version is better to choose, if of course there are enough characteristics for the installations

  Boot from USB?
Posted by: ascendedmaster - 06-24-2024, 08:52 AM - Forum: Help Section - Replies (5)

Hi.  Do I still need to run Isohybrid on the dsl-2024.rc5.iso image to create a bootable USB?  I'm on Linux Mint and have tried this following the instructions and using USB Image Writer and Etcher to write to USB.  No luck so far in creating a bootable USB for my Asus VivoBook.  Never had any problems booting other distros from USB with my laptop before.

Any links to a foolproof, USB bootable DSL image for new Linux users?  Thanks.


I have also tested Antix on my VivoBook. Burned the current ISO to USB using USB Image Writer on Mint. The VivioBook booted from USB with no problems. Any tips would be welcome. Thanks.

Bug RC5 : RIGHT-CLICK ON TAR.XZ FILE
Posted by: Rantanplan - 06-22-2024, 04:20 PM - Forum: User Feedback - Replies (1)

Bonjour John,

Lorsque je clique droit sur un fichier archive (par exemple .tar.xz ou .zip) et que je choisis Ouvrir > Lister le contenu, sylpheed est lancé.

J'essaye cmus en ce moment. C'est un très bon lecteur de musique qui accepte beaucoup de format et même le protocole http : bravo de l'avoir inclus.

Merci.

Amitiés.

--------------------------------- in english ---------------------------------
Hello John

When I right-click on an archive file (e.g. .tar.xz or .zip) and choose Open > List Contents, sylpheed is launched.

I'm trying cmus right now. It's a very good music player that accepts a lot of formats (flac, ogg, mp3, opus, wav...) and even the http protocol and may be https: congratulations for including it.

Thank you.

Friendships.

  antiX Advert Blocker
Posted by: sctn4elk - 06-20-2024, 02:55 PM - Forum: Help Section - Replies (7)

Not sure if this is an issue or not, and not sure if it is directly related to AntiX or DSL, but here goes:

I have a fresh install of DSL 2024 and while changing the name of my server in /etc/hostname and /etc/hosts I came across >75000 entries in my hosts file like this:

# BEGIN (below) - IPs added by antiX Advert Blocker #
127.0.0.1 <my host name>
.
. a lot of the same entries here
.
127.0.0.1 <my host name>
# END (above) - IPs added by antiX Advert Blocker #

I've read a couple of posts on AntiX forums about removing antiX Advert Blocker and I will do that if the hosts file continues to get overrun by these entries. However, anyone have any insight into why/how these entries are being populated?

(cross posted on the AntiX forums)

  Unable to boot into liveCD - Fatal Error
Posted by: doe - 06-15-2024, 07:01 PM - Forum: Help Section - Replies (2)

I've been trying to get into the liveCD environment (using a USB flash drive) to install DSL on my HP omnibook xe4400 (Pentium 4, 30GB HD, 256MB RAM), but no matter what I do, I encounter this error:

Quote:Fatal Error
Neither aufs nor overlayfs is available


[Image: 2024-06-15-21-45-00-314-min.jpg]

I'm guessing this is a problem with antiX, since someone had the same problem, but using the failsafe option doesn't work for me. Any help? Big Grin

  gksu is not working properly
Posted by: PistachioGuy - 06-11-2024, 08:55 PM - Forum: User Feedback - Replies (8)

Hi, thank you very much for reviving this project, it is running very well on my old EeePC.

I just had one issue: gksu doesn't seem to be working. No window opens, and this results in apps like control centre not opening and leaving gksu processes running in the background.

Here is the result of gksu --debug apt update:

Code:
No ask_pass set, using default!
xauth: /tmp/libgksu-TE6qLq/.Xauthority
STARTUP_ID: gksu/apt 'update' /2070-0-EeePC_TIME1120526

cmd[7]: --
cmd[8]: apt
cmd[9]: update

brute force GNOME_SUDO_PASS ended...
No password prompt found; we'll assume we don't need a password.

Everything is default, and I do have a password set. Running latest rc5. Any help is much appreciated Smile
