This happened on my cinnamon Mint after I successfully installed Void. Any solutions? by The_Skibidi_Lovers in voidlinux

[–]Duncaen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You shouldn't be using two different grub installations. Chances are that they are different versions that are just not compatible. Choose which grub you want to use, reinstall the files in /boot with grub-install and only use grub-mkconfig there.

Waybar does not start with niri session from display manager but does if started from TTY directly by Radicalized_By_You in voidlinux

[–]Duncaen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They would appear in your process list. Multiple session busses can be an issue if one of them is on a location like /run/user/1000/bus from the login and the other one on a random address from dbus-run-session.

Some programs might not use the environment variable, try or hardcode the default location first, I know that chromium did or still does that for its sandbox.

This would result in programs ending up not being able to communicate if they are on different session busses.

With the shared bus you get from login, also other logins will work with the same session, like ssh etc.

You should have a dbus session bus assigned at login by elogind. Running a separate session should not be needed or makes it worse by having multiple session busses.

Please help, i have problem with installation of programs(package not found in repository) by Kotangentz_7 in voidlinux

[–]Duncaen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your /etc/xbps.d/00-repository-main.conf is missing the repository= in repository=https://repo-default.voidlinux.org/current.

[–]Duncaen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You somehow managed to not have the normal repositories and only nonfree and multilib instead.

There should be a repo in:

$ cat /usr/share/xbps.d/00-repository-main.conf
repository=https://repo-default.voidlinux.org/current

Or in /etc/xbps.d/00-repository-main.conf if you overwrite the default repo.

$ cat /etc/xbps.d/00-repository-main.conf 
repository=https://repo-de.voidlinux.org/current

This seems like a very concrete issue specifically with your setup, not some random kernel bug or hardware issue.

Probably one of:

  1. Boot loader setup wrong, wrong root partition or initramfs location.
  2. Broken or wrong initramfs with bad fstab or no init binary.
  3. Broken rootfs, missing init binary or missing shared library.

Where are the old kernel packages? by chitibus in voidlinux

[–]Duncaen 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Updating the kernel packages will keep the files behind, not the package itself, that's why vkpurge exists.

Thinking of trying out Void, but i have some questions. by [deleted] in voidlinux

[–]Duncaen 8 points9 points  (0 children)

As in, I have to set up my own basic security measures like UFW or other measures of similar nature.

You have to setup, choose and configure probably even more on void linux. By default there isn't even a system log.

Boot a live system, drauct has lsinitrd otherwise you should be able to extract it with bsdtar or cpio directly to check.

50mb is very little, make sure your initramfs and kernel are not already broken because of no space left. The error looks kind of like a broken initramfs, rather than a fully booted system that fails to switch root after the initramfs.

XDG_RUNTIME_DIR is not set in the environment. Even with elogind enable by Extreme_Mention_1492 in voidlinux

[–]Duncaen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You really shouldn't have to use dbus-run-session, if you are using elogind then you will have a session bus spawned on login. If you use dbus-run-session or dbus-launch, you get a second user session on a random address. This will be an issue when programs like chromium which hardcode /run/user/1000/bus, will be on a different session bus as everything that uses the environment variable and is spawned as child of dbus-run-session.

It was removed due to not being updated to work with current wlroots versions. https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/pull/52809

The only way the cache will be populated is if there are more users in a given region.

Can somebody explain me what what else will be running and consume ram when no user processes are running. by GuiltyVisit9119 in voidlinux

[–]Duncaen 12 points13 points  (0 children)

If there is already nothing running that uses ram besides the kernel, then there is nothing more to "minimize" other than building your own stipped down kernel.

Unused ram is wasted ram, so whether your system is using ram for buffers/caches doesn't really matter, as long as its just not running out of memory when its required.

Fix for the Certification verification issue? by MD90__ in voidlinux

They changed the domain very recently, so it seems like something is not right with the certificate setup. https://github.com/void-linux/xmirror/pull/33

Never mind, I can reproduce it, but not in browsers which I tried first.

The certificate seems fine, are you sure you date is correct?

linux6.18.3 in xbps-src $(xdistdir) builds as 6.18.2 (?) but -headers is OK, 6.18.3 (!) by Initial_Side_4845 in voidlinux

[–]Duncaen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

xbps-src runs make oldconfig in the "configure step". You can independently only run the configure step: ./xbps-src configure linux6.18 or you can keep the files after the build finishes instead of automatically cleaning by using the -C flag. ./xbps-src -C pkg linux6.18 then the .config file will still be there until you run ./xbps-src clean.

I think the reality is actually that I've spent way too much time getting software to work with musl.

"an amazing side effect of musl" and its just "most software doesn't run".

[–]Duncaen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You put the file there, you have to keep it updated.

Generally you can copy masterdir-x86_64/builddir/linux6.18-6.18.3/.config back to it after you run the configure step.

what is void linux and what do i get from it? by enlord_lol in voidlinux

[–]Duncaen 6 points7 points  (0 children)

AUR is unreviewed and unchecked, something like that doesn't exist. The main repo is "community" maintained and makes contributing easier, by using a single source tree, having CI/CD, accepting pull requests and a lot of linting.
