Re: EasyOS Kirkstone-series version 5.4.10

(it would connect, then disconnect, repeatedly) ANYWAY, I found the answer hcitool lewladd <bt address> (low energy white list add) just worked,, oddly ...

Re: EasyOS version 4.5.1 released

When I put in the usb stick into machine with scsi drive, it just loaded module All automatically, so I am guessing that the laptop that I did update with, is too old (? ~11years?) Other machines though will load mpt3sas(not ezos) even without any scsi drive thanks for your efforts, sorry to waste ...

Re: EasyOS version 4.5 released

>Note, that module is 500KB
That is odd, checking another distro I see
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 130280 Oct 15 02:52 mpt3sas.ko.xz
a dep is scsi_transport_sas.ko.xz, but this is 12K, and raid_class,,3K
This is 5.15.74

Re: Should ISO format be retired?

One easy way for error proofing is to zip the iso, a damaged zip errors out I guess I'm dumb, I never have figured out how to use an img with vBox, this is my main complaint For those who think an optical drive is necessary, most isos are hybrid, can be dd'd to usb stick I object to the gigantic ...

Re: EasyOS version 4.5 released

Try modprobe mpt3sas then,,,, cd /lib/modules/`uname -r`/ ; grep mpt3 * ls kernel/drivers/scsi/mp* not there Yes, broadcom bought LSI maybe 5 years ago ------more---- modinfo mpt3sas modinfo: ERROR: Module mpt3sas not found maybe what you uploaded is different than what you have in front of you?

Re: 10.0.43.....issues

LSI is fairly common, my guess is LSI, adaptec, others (dell/hp/buslogic) in that order
LSI costs less than adaptec, the others often come as part of a server package(rather than add-in cards)
Curious, why is MPT3SAS=y in 9.2.x (rather than =m)?

Re: version 9.2.19 - some issues

So I tried 9.2.20, just the same
actual boot is OK, but starting X takes 10m, and really slow after started
So I dragged out an intel box, i3-8100,. Everything was normal, 1m to X
FWIW

Re: 10.0.43.....issues

Well, are you sure that you want so much? dmesg is 1635 lines
I don't want to pollute the forum
Maybe something like,,, dmesg |grep mpt and dmesg | grep scsi ??
and dmesg |grep blue

10.0.43.....issues

So, 10.0.43 boots OK from usb,,, refind, 1 iso per partition (efi) But when installed on scsi drive, loads kernel and initrd OK (limine loader) but can't find any sfs a few seconds later, so drops to recovery shell blkid does not list scsi drive pmedia=scsihd makes no difference all of the 9.2 ...

Re: version 9.2.19 - some issues

I downloaded 10.0.43, it booted normally,, ie X desktop about 1 minute
I planned to bisect, but only 9.2.18 shows of older 9.2 series,
and 18 won't boot, maybe because no grub.cfg

Joke,, not intended to offend
BTW, can it be shipped with screensaver turned off?
If it goes to sleep, and the only recovery is a hard reset, the fs can and likely will be damaged
