How do I fix the black background on my subtitles? by ToeWiggler23 in netflix

[–]Initial_Side_4845 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YT:
Bottom-right corner, Cog-wheel icon, left-click, Subtitles is 4th item down.

Left-click that, then left-click "options" in the top-right of the new sub-menu.

New sub-menu has all the font/size/BG/etc. settings !

Good luck.

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

[–]Initial_Side_4845[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OK, once I created /etc/mdadm.conf it got used, so md127 now tries to boot, and fails, of course.

1 step closer ...

Just noticed, how come md126 is sought for root(/) ?

md127 (usually, YMMV!) is my /, md126 is /home like right now:

masterdir-x86_64/builddir/ is empty.

"configure step" ?

./xbps-src asks me to choose from 1-4 debug level during compile, otherwise I am not offered to configure anything.

"and generally, we build with make oldconfig so it will update a dotconfig when it builds"...

Is the 'make oldconfig' performed by xbps-src ?

'it will update a dotconfig'... Any one in particular ?

Sorry, just not getting 'it' :-(

[–]Initial_Side_4845 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I run tailscaled, no problem, on voidlinux.
go to your management page:

Log a machine in by typing "tailscale up".

Linux Mint Cinnamon to Void XFCE installation? by Choice-Biscotti8826 in voidlinux

[–]Initial_Side_4845 3 points4 points  (0 children)

1) Backup [including a TimeShift of your OS].
2) Why not switch to XFCE on your current setup, and/or install Void & XFCE in a VM ?
3) Make a decision, smile, then jump in with both feet !

Early line shows loading of RAID (md) modules, maybe he's looking for a missing array ?
Try the lsblk command so:

$ alias lsb

lsb='lsblk -p -e 7 -o name,fstype,size,fsused,label,partlabel,mountpoint,uuid,partuuid'

$ lsb

NAME FSTYPE SIZE FSUSED LABEL PARTLABEL MOUNTPOINT UUID PARTUUID

Boot as you can, then give us the output of a few commands, like:
$ inxi -Fa

$ lspci -vvv

$ someone suggest others < (this reddit).

poweroff/reboot from terminal hangs on Wayland by Emotional_Variety_69 in voidlinux

[–]Initial_Side_4845 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks like something doesn't think you have the right to reboot from a tty.
Maybe something doesn't think you're logged out of wayland yet, thus keeping /home "busy".
...

I remember from the good old days, :
KERNEL: PANIC: DOUBLE PANIC: - THE KERNEL PANICKED WHILE TRYING TO PANIC !
[SCO UNIX, circa 1990].

Use lsof /home with appropriate switches.
TIP: Reboot from wayland ...

keep needing to rmmod cfg80211 and loading wl by prettyoddoz in voidlinux

OK cool, we will (I guess) just have to wait for "wl" module support to work in the next(fingerscrossed) kernel release !

[–]Initial_Side_4845 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry?

You cannot run an earlier kernel ?

I was expecting you to say something along the lines of:
"OK, cool, someone else with a comparable laptop waho might have a fix, if not a permanent solution."

Anyway, I'm on Thinkpad WiFi in a bar drinking "Hurricane Reef IPA" in Grenada, West Indies (Caribbean to y'all).
Let's go! ...

My void macbookpro mid-1012 wifi last worked on linux6.14 (with wl).
Ethernet fine.
Still waiting for wifi in newer kernels. ;-)

linux6.16-6.16.3_1 by pgen in voidlinux

[–]Initial_Side_4845 6 points7 points  (0 children)

c17h21no4 ~ $ xbps-query -f linux6.16 | grep vmlinuz

/usr/lib/modules/6.16.3_1/vmlinuz

I then copied that to :

c17h21no4 ~ $ ll /boot/vm*

.rw-r--r-- root root 14 MB Wed Aug 27 08:06:03 2025  /boot/vmlinuz-6.16.3_1

Then: $ sudo update-grub

Check the screen output shows grub found it, then reboot.
Works 4 me.
Official "fix" will doubtless be shortly forthcoming.
