Subject: [Frugalware-forums] Installing from archlinux
Message-ID: <2288.48e366e4@forums.frugalware.org>



Hey, i would like to try frugalware, but currently i have no cdrom and installing from usb stick fails somehow.

Currently i have archlinux, as you know it has pacman, so is it possible to install frugalware from archlinux without actualy using bootable media, i found article in your wiki about A manual bootstrap, but it says: "First of all, you must have a running Frugalware where you are able to do". But if i have pacman maybe it would be enought to edit /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist and pt there frugalware repos.

If it is possible maybe someone could give more details how to do it?

sorry for my english. I don't think you can to install frugalware fom Arch but, if you have windows, you can try this for make an usb stik:
download http://www12.frugalware.org/mirrors/ftp.frugalware.org/pub/frugalware/frugalware-0.9-iso/frugalware-0.9-i686-usb.img
Now go here, STEP 5 http://dailycupoftech.com/2008/09/02/diy-acer-aspire-one-recovery-usb-device/
With SelfImage is very Easy. A try and work!!

ok, i figured out how to install frugalware from arch with your pacman static, now i need a few files, and i dont know where to get them.

So there is some files that no package owns them, so where i can get them, a list:


/etc/sysconfig/keymap

/etc/profile.d/lang.sh
* what is is anyway?

/etc/fstab
* well this one is common so ok, but the other ones i gues is frugalware specific

maybe someone could sent them to me? or tell where to download them?

Is setting your LOCALE ?:)

# /etc/profile.d/lang.sh

Nothing Frugalware specific in it. Hmm maybe that part but this stuff is common these day:
...

none             /proc            proc        defaults         0   0
none             /sys             sysfs       defaults         0   0
devpts           /dev/pts         devpts      gid=5,mode=620   0   0
usbfs            /proc/bus/usb    usbfs       devgid=23,devmode=664 0   0
tmpfs            /dev/shm         tmpfs       defaults         0   0

...

the rest is normal setup of your HDD's .. 


mine looks like this on that box:

none             /proc            proc        defaults         0   0

/etc/fstab is definitely not frugalware-specific, but it's specific to the way you have your harddrive partitioned. You'll want to at least specify your root partition (being the partition you put frugal on) and possibly a swap partition. See fstab(5) if you need to read up on it.

the netconfig tool is very handy... have a look:

desc = Home wifi :)
[wlan0]
essid = fred

my old config looked like this:

[ath0]
essid = xxx
key = xxx
options = dhcp


Now I get:
Error for wireless request "Set Mode" (8B06) :
    SET failed on device wlan0 ; Invalid argument.
err, wlan0: timed out

and 
kernel: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): wlan0 link is not ready

Is that a kernel issue?

Is that a bug?
so:
I've noticed, lsmod returns both ath5k and ath_pci, so I removed the first one and ath0 was back. ath5k comes with the kernel and doesn't work and prevents ath_pci from doing its job. In order to make the atheros work I have to modprobe -r ath5k. Should I report it, or is it intentional?

It got removed because we no longer provide custom patchsets as binary
packages; if you want grsec:

If you have foo-2.0 installed and you have foo-1.0 and foo-2.0 in the
cache, then pacman -Sc will remove foo-1.0 only, while pacman -Scc will
remove both.

That bug is already fixed, but it was reported only after 0.9 was out.

> Do you think make a frugalware version for netbook?

See http://ftp.frugalware.org/pub/other/people/vmiklos/eee/

In short, you can use that snapshot for now, and it will hopefully work
out of the box in 1.0.

First, this should not happen, so the best is to report it at
bugs.frugalware.org.

Second, if you report an installer bug, please don't forget to upload
the setup.log file, which hopefully contains the details of your
problem, so that we can fix it.

I'm not sure if this is a problem with Frugalware - can you boot other
operating systems from USB?

Ok... But if package foo is in the excluded list (pacman-g2.conf) will foo-1.0 deleted anyway?
If so, I cant clean old packages since I use old versions of firefox and vlc. I must delete them by hand, isn't it?

That does not count, if you have foo-1.0-1-i686.fpm and
foo-2.0-1-i686.fpm in the dir, then only 2.0 will be kept.

No, -Scc will do the same as rm -rf.

Are you sure distrowatch.org counts the popularity from the user agent

I would try:

1) stopping the ivman deamon

2) removing the line from fstab

after that, it'll work for you probably as well. :)

Considering the average popularity of LXDE and Openbox, probably they
will not be installed by default, so what you currently do is the
recommended way.

If you really want so, you can create a custom install cd with lxde and
openbox in the default package list, but probably it does not wroth the
effort.

This should be a workaround: echo "blacklist ath5k" >> /etc/sysconfig/blacklist It's not a Frugalware bug. Try checking upstream.

That is expected. See the README in my 'eee' dir, you can install a
2.6.27-rc kernel and then your wifi will be working as well.

Once it is released as stable, we'll have it in current after some time,
too.

If you get an IP, then typically you can have two kinds of problems:

- the ISP does not send you the address of the default gw (or it does
  not send it in a proper way)

- the DNS addresses are not updated in /etc/resolv.conf

Try pinging an IP directly (ping 157.181.177.34, for example), if that
works, then it's just the DNS that is not properly configured.

If that fails to work as well, then try 'ifconfig ppp0|grep inet' and
'route add default gw <the ip after inet addr>'.

I have installed 0.9 (Solaria) on it and I use KDE. Everything works, eccept sound card do not work
dmesg  output

Then I found this on http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php/NVidia
NVidia use a PCI bus interface which is very similar to that used by Intel. As a result the NVidia interfaces can be driven with the intel8x0 alsa driver.

But still I have no sounds and dmesg still states

The  sound card works in Windows Vista, which unfortunalely, I also have to install on the computer

Is there is someone who can help me, so that my birthday present will be perfect

I'll throw in my 2 cents worth :)

Is this the only sound "card" in the PC?  Could there be BIOS settings
somehow interfering?

Have you enabled all the appropriate channels in ALSA's configuration
tool - alsaconf?  I have found in the past that some options -
PCM/whatever - were muted by default.


May you always be Frugal,

BTW , what motherboard is that ? ( Some Biostar XXX or so ? )

However can you try the following ?:

1) Crete as root a file called hda-intel-nvidia under /etc/modprobe.d
2) Open that file with some editor and add :

	options snd-hda-intel enable=1 index=0
	alias snd-card-0 snd-hda-intel
	options snd-hda-intel model=6stack
3) Save
4) Reboot your box

    *
      Manufacturer: ECS
    *
      Motherboard Name: MCP61PM-HM
    *
      HP/Compaq motherboard name: Nettle3-GL8E


I have done as you suggested, futher more I have run "alsaconf"


Then I have run "alsamixer"
# service alsa save
:: Saving ALSA mixer settings                                        [

# service alsa load
:: Loading ALSA mixer settings                                       [   
OK   ]
Now I can play all KDEs sounds in /usr/share sounds


There are  sounds playing when I log out of KDE
But when I reboote the computer there are no sounds anymore. And my 
settings in alsamixer have disappeared

Yes.

You need to build your own kernel+initrd, then you can build your own
iso.

Basically what you need:

- git clone git://git.frugalware.org/pub/other/setup/setup

- read README. You should be able to edit the configure script and the
  Makefile if you want to use the 'kernel-foo' package instead of the
  kernel one. An other (maybe easier, but hackish) method is to just
  build your custom kernel (see frugalware.org/docs/bugs for a link on how
  to build your custom kernel), copy the fpm to /var/cache/pacman-g2/pkg
  and hand-edit the sha1 and the version in
  /var/lib/pacman-g2/frugalware-current/kernel-* (you need to rename the
  dir and edit the version&sha1 in the files as well)

- once you have the kernel+initrd, you can build your own netinstall
  iso, see man mkiso.

HTH.

That depends on what repo do you select when you do the installation.
The default URL points to the Frugalware repo, which will contain our
kernel.

Once you built the initrd, you can edit the
config under merge/etc/pacman-g2/repos/ and then:

# make initrd
# rm -f initrd*.gz
# gzip initrd*

so that the compressed initrd will contain your custom URL.

At your custom URL it is needed to mirror our (for example)
frugalware-i686 dir, then you can update the entry of the kernel in the
fdb file to your version. (The best is to use updatesync for this
purpose.)

Hi guys

No problem, put gspcav1 in the Ignorepkg line of pacman-g2.conf.
Run the command again but the problem is always there

uname -a says that the kernel is the correct one, IMHO

Any idea?

I wonder if you use vlc at all ?:) FYI .. 0.8.X won't work right ( if at all , even you rebuild it by yourself )
since it is broken with the ffmpeg version from current / 0.9 also broken with all lib*raw* and reverse

No, I dont use vlc. Have it installed but prefer to use mplayer. I prefer tools without lot of gadgets. :d
Then with 0.9 I cannot be root to run vlc. Think they are crazy. If I "hate" myself, its my problem, not their. They must allow me to use vlc as a root or they will use their gadget

Well running such things as root is bad :P but you still can .. try 'sudo vlc-wrapper'

Thank you, but I use vlc only in very strange situations. Usually use mplayer from inside mc

No, that's perfectly OK. Such kind of error message ("Unknown symbol in
module") is never acceptable, so this is a bug.

Please report it via http://bugs.frugalware.org and we'll try to solve
it.

In the meantime, you can try the opensource driver, at least it should
work, without 3d acceleration.

Thanks.

Subject: [Frugalware-forums] System Hangs on External VGA connection
Message-ID: <22e9.4904f828@forums.frugalware.org>



Hi,
my system hangs when i try to connect a external VGA Monitor.
I've a Dell XPS M1330 Laptop, with Intel X3100 graphics card. 
I'm sure there's no hardware iussue because the external VGA worked with another OS (gparted live cd..)

When I plug in the cable on the vga the system became unusable. the mouse pointer can move but nothing is working. I can only power off.

I also tried to add the VGA as a second Monitor in the xorg.conf file, and everything got worse, because the system hanged (even if nothing was connected on the VGA) when X was initialized.

Does anyone can help me??? Thanks

Enrico

PS: Really really sorry for my bad English.

Is this on stable or current?

Maybe the issue is related to a specific kernel version.

Daniel will correct me, but in case its resolution is big enough and
it's editable (xcf is), then it's not a big problem, I think.

I am now going to be moderating the English forums around here. As you may already know, I am also a maintainer of various xorg packages. I will mainly be purging the forum of obvious spam posts that make it past the filters.
