Sorry for late responce. Very good job fred :) I would just like to add a note here. The problem was not the number of the squashfs files . It was the sum of their characters. The same problem can occur even with just a few files with big filenames. . That is why I believe that this internal renamin...

I didn't notice any difference in behavior cause of the old-truncated 01-filessystem.squashfs. Probably it would be noticeable only if you'd use script e.g. remaster as it depends on some things. I'd be happy to change the default code in the initrd but the mounted module names all need to have .sq...

@trister Couldn't let go ;) so tried some more , please test. - finit-not-numbered: edit: updated 16-10-2023, see info: https://forum.puppylinux.com/viewtopic.php?p=101138#p101138 mountpoints not numbered , e.g. firefox.squashfs, truncated names to 7 chars, with extension .squashfs and name "0...

Hello. This is related to the discussion we did here : https://forum.puppylinux.com/viewtopic.php?p=34970&hilit=finit#p34970 To sum it up : There is a problem if the size of the text of the squashfs filenames exceed a limit. This is kernel related. Each time I run the build script I have to modi...

I guess you meant kernel 6.1.xxx (from backports) ?

Yes. Thats what I mean

trister

Problem Solved!
Ok tried with firmware 6.1.xxx and I can select resolutions in my new PC.

Thanks all for your help

trister

(talking for both EFI and bios) LICK (run the comnand line version -not the GUI) would be my first option. Worst case scenario is that you will not see the LICK entry. Make sure that fast boot is disabled. Disabling Secure boot is not always necessary. Be certain that your windows disk is not bitloc...

k-6.3.0-2-amd64-sid.tar.gz works ok in bullseye. Nice, but note there can be a disadvantage with this 'sid' kernel, if you need the kernel-headers for compiling it's nearly impossible. With the kernel from bullseye-backports (currently v6.1) there's no such problem, tell me if you're interested and...

trister

Please run lspci again. Are you now loading the i915 kernel driver? Supposedly, Xorg is now using the modesetting driver instead of falling back to VESA like before. The PC is packaged to be tranfered I'll be able to try it either at the end of this week or next week. -------------------------- The...

k-6.3.0-2-amd64-sid.tar.gz works ok in bullseye.

I even applied the "file overlay limit fix" in finit (initrd1.xz) and also worked!

This link has lots of info about kernel versions and drivers. https://linux-hardware.org/?id=pci:8086-4c8b-1043-8694 I use kernel 5.10.0.21. From the previous linkI see that my kernel support UHD 730 (rocket lake - different device ud). I don't know if it is recognised . My Id seems to be "Dev...

Hello, I just bought an INTEL CORE I3-13100 (Raptor Lake 13th Gen - 2023 / Intel UHD Graphics 730) - with Motherboard GIGABYTE B760M DS3H. i3- has integrated graphics (Intel UHD Graphics 730). In Bullseye I can't change resolution (only option is 1024x768). What packages should I install ? Is there ...

I just saw this... This is what I run in my .desktop file to put Chrome on the /live/image/ (the Debian dog equivalent of /mnt/home).

About ETP solution I did try this in the past but not with many tests. I think this solved half the priblem but I did have some issues with the userdata folder.

I did some more tests. With userdata on the USB and Cache in RAM chrome still has incredible delays...

trister

Thank you both. :) I have tried both solutions in the past. Initial I tried fred's solution but it didn't make much difference because the delay was caused by the many different small files that cache writes. With this solution I kept having many thousands of files in cache folder. I tried to find a...

trister

Hello, After many years of running puppy/dog linuxes I have pinpointed the main major factor that slows surfing is the Google Chrome writing of data & cache in drive. I tried moving the whole OS to a simple USB3 and when I tried to browse using google chrome I had major slowdown issues (NOTE: I ...

I ended up using MEMU in windows which does an incredible job ( even if it is full of ads)..

trister

This might get you a head start on what didn't work a couple of years ago. https://forum.puppylinux.com/viewtopic.php?p=34242#p34242 Thanks dancytron. I read the posts. I installed both anbox and snapd from synaptic. Then I installed again anbox from snap. I managed to have the anbox service run bu...

This is how I run chrome and other chromium based browsers for MANY years in NTFS in many PCs (I remember they worked with Fat32 in the past) It is quite similar to the scripts you all posted above. chown and chmod for chrome-sandbox are used because I had at some point an issue in some updates of c...

trister

Another approach... Is it possible to add a minimal GNOME as a 3rd desktop/window manager in Bullseye Dog (preferable via squashfs) so it could be used only to run a wayland session . It will only be used to run the android emulator - nothing else. I'm trying to avoid using windows for android and t...

trister

Anyone tried setting up any android emulator in Bullseye DebianDog? I want to be able to run android apps in my PC. Memu in windows 10 works very well. I tried to find a similar solution in linux but couldn't. I tried Anbox and Waydroid. They both did not start. Anbox must be setup with snapd but I ...

trister

Hi trister, I wish you a great 2022 too ! Well, that worked, installing systemd, for Buster but not anymore that way for Bullseye. The best is to make a new build with option "Run with systemd as init system .. " checked. The newest mklive-bullseye has that option (additional settings) Bu...

Happy new year !! :) Following is quoted from busterdog topic: How to install systemd on BusterDog: For those who prefer booting with systemd, here's how (a bit of a workaround) First make sure to Exit X ! Menu > Logout > Exit X Then from the console type ("apt update" may not be needed if...

Hello again. I am posting about an issue I also had in BusterDog (but the fixes doesn't seem to work now). In Bullseye 2 desktop enviroments are loaded. The desktop I use is the one that open with Ctrl+Alt+F1 and the second desktop is visible with Ctrl+Alt+F7. I don't have any issue with speed/ram e...

So far the modification of fred script work extremelly well. No issue. ...The problem is that I have another issue : I can't de-activate loaded squashfs .It says 'file not currently activated'. Tried both with right click menu option and SFS-load GUI. All the squashfs from the live folder can't be d...

trister

Hi trister, hmmm... didn't understand from your above post if your linuxrc edit works properly. Anyway, meanwhile I've been experimenting with 2 options (modified 'finit', the functions script for linuxrc) both work OK with 100 squashfs modules from what I tested. Can you try one of the options (or...
