Debian Development Discussion • Re: Direct to modem

news.woodpeckersnest.space / forums-debian-net:0 • 7 April

Hello,

I assume you installed a Raspbian OS on your Pi.

My Raspberry pi is connected directly to my modem, (no router). Static IP.

Can you specify the manufacturer and model of your modem ?

The pi can access the Internet without issue (I can remote in with VPN and Rustdesk).
However, I can not access any services (ssh, VNC, HTTP) other than through the VPN. As if blocked by Firewall.
[..]
One clue may be that <hostname - i> responds with 127.0.1.1, rather than the IP of the LAN.

This may depend on the Internet Service Provider you are connecting to or the way you connect to the Internet through your modem. How is your internet connection configured on your Pi ?

Hope this helps.

note:
1) moved to "Off-Topic" sub-forum because it's about a derivative distribution.
2) maybe you can modify the subject of the first post to make it more explicative; i.e.: "Raspberry Pi: can only access services via a VPN"

Installation • Re: JournalD starting and killing loop on first boot.

news.woodpeckersnest.space / forums-debian-net:0 • 7 April

Hello,

Did you sort it out ?
Yes. Bit late, but if you are having this issue, specially on a gaming build / laptop the issue could be graphics driver. To check this follow the steps below.
I'm glad you sorted it out and thanks for reporting back.

So it was caused by the kernel module (driver) for the nvidia graphic card.

Please, mark the discussion as "solved" manually adding the text tag "[Solved]" at the beginning of the subject of the first message.

Thanks.

Happy Debian !

Off-Topic • Re: [Discussion] What do you do with 10+ years old laptops that still work fine?

Maybe contact a nearby hackspace? Our hackspace (which is not nearby) has severall old hardware collectionistas. Not every space like those collections though - most hold the same attitude as your wife. But if those devices are able to run libreboot they might find a Liebhaber there.

Hello,

Did you sort it out ?

Yes. Bit late, but if you are having this issue, specially on a gaming build / laptop the issue could be graphics driver. To check this follow the steps below.

At the GRUB menu, select your Debian option and press 'e' to edit the boot parameters.
Find the line starting with linux.
At the end of that line, add nomodeset.
Press Ctrl+X or F10 to boot.

If the error goes away, then that means it is graphic driver / card related issue. To fix it, I did the following.

In the

Code:

/etc/apt/sources.list

file, I added / uncommented following:

Code:

deb http://deb.debian.org/debian/ bookworm main non-free non-free-firmwaredeb-src http://deb.debian.org/debian/ bookworm main non-free non-free-firmwaredeb http://security.debian.org/debian-security/ bookworm-security main non-free non-free-firmwaredeb-src http://security.debian.org/debian-security/ bookworm-security main non-free non-free-firmwaredeb http://deb.debian.org/debian/ bookworm-updates main non-free non-free-firmwaredeb-src http://deb.debian.org/debian/ bookworm-updates main non-free non-free-firmware

Then I ran:

Code:

sudo apt updatesudo apt install nvidia-driver

Then reboot.

Graphical Environments & Desktops • Re: Debian 12 Xfce - new installation - thunar file manager preferences not usable

news.woodpeckersnest.space / forums-debian-net:0 • 7 April

@kalle123 Can you please look into /etc/skel/.config/xfce4/xfconf/xfce-perchannel-xml/thunar.xml on the malfunctioning installation and check whether there is a preset for last-window-height? Or in those other distros you tried?
Or even better just copy-paste the content of that file here.
I want to check whether there is a regression in the presets.

Graphical Environments & Desktops • Re: Prevent Thumbnail Display in Mate Desktop-UPDATE-NEW

news.woodpeckersnest.space / forums-debian-net:0 • 7 April

Whilst exploring the behaviour of the bottom panel I finally found the solution to this Thumbnail issue. Here are the steps I followed:

Depending on your theme, you should see a 3 dot vertcial icon placed in a narrow band just before the packed window list on the bottom panel. There was hardly any contrast between the band and the rest of the panel in my theme. Increasing the panel size makes the band more visible.

Right click anywhere in the band. This exposes a popup with a Preferences entry. If you miss the band, the popup has a Properties entry. This popup has no entry in the dconf Editor.

Select Preferences.

This brings up the Windows List Preferences dialog as I reported for the issue in Ubuntu-Mate

Select Hide Thumbnails and close.

Thumbnails gone!

General Questions • [Software] What is the correct "mysq-client" package to install in Debian 12?

news.woodpeckersnest.space / forums-debian-net:0 • 7 April

Hello Friends

In Debian Desktop 12 if I want to do a remote connection as client to a MySQL Server in other machine in the LAN I need use the mysql command, when it is executed happens the following:

Code:

manueljordan@vm163:~$ mysql bash: mysql: command not found

If is executed the apt search mysql-client command happens the following

Code:

manueljordan@vm163:~$ apt search mysql-clientSorting... DoneFull Text Search... Donedefault-mysql-client/stable 1.1.0 all  MySQL database client binaries (metapackage)default-mysql-client-core/stable 1.1.0 all  MySQL database core client binaries (metapackage)

Therefore

What is the correct package to install? default-mysql-client or default-mysql-client-core? and Why?

And just being curious:

What exists two packages?
What is the difference between them?

Thanks in advance

Testing And Unstable • Re: [Testing - Trixie] preseed issues with crypto

news.woodpeckersnest.space / forums-debian-net:0 • 7 April • 1 minute

Hello,

so there is no difference between the alpha 1 release and the current daily testing build. When i install from a USB stick, i am first asked if i want to install to the usb stick or the internal storage. And if i then choose the internal storage, no lvm with luks gets created:

Code:

NAME   MAJ:MIN RM   SIZE RO TYPE MOUNTPOINTSsda      8:0    0   113G  0 disk ├─sda1   8:1    0   976M  0 part /boot/efi├─sda2   8:2    0 108,1G  0 part /└─sda3   8:3    0   3,9G  0 part [SWAP]

I also did tests on other hardware, same error appears on both of them. All devices are not quite recent, but that shouldn't make a difference..

Then i thought it might be because of how i write the preseed file into the original debian iso?
maybe you can help me to check this?
but if it's not that either, maybe i should open a bug report.

Code:

#!/bin/bashISO_FILE=$(ls debian-trixie*amd64-netinst.iso 2>/dev/null)mkdir ORIGISOmkdir NEWISOsudo mount -o loop "$ISO_FILE" ./ORIGISOcp -rT ./ORIGISO/ ./NEWISO/sudo umount ./ORIGISO chmod +w -R ./NEWISO/install.amd/gunzip ./NEWISO/install.amd/initrd.gzgunzip ./NEWISO/install.amd/gtk/initrd.gzecho preseed.cfg | cpio -H newc -o -A -F ./NEWISO/install.amd/initrdecho preseed.cfg | cpio -H newc -o -A -F ./NEWISO/install.amd/gtk/initrdgzip ./NEWISO/install.amd/initrdgzip ./NEWISO/install.amd/gtk/initrdchmod -w -R ./NEWISO/install.amdchmod +w ./NEWISO/md5sum.txtcd NEWISOfind -follow -type f ! -name md5sum.txt -print0 | xargs -0 md5sum > ./md5sum.txtchmod -w ./md5sum.txtcd ..sudo genisoimage -r -J -b isolinux/isolinux.bin -c isolinux/boot.cat -no-emul-boot -boot-load-size 4 -boot-info-table -eltorito-alt-boot -e boot/grub/efi.img -no-emul-boot -o debian-trixie-preseed.iso ./NEWISOsudo isohybrid --uefi debian-trixie-preseed.isosudo rm -rf ./ORIGISO ./NEWISO
