(1) The ping test still fails, returning # ping -4 -c 1 -w 5 8.8.8.8 PING 8.8.8.8 (8.8.8.8): 56 data bytes --- 8.8.8.8 ping statistics --- 1 packets transmitted, 0 packets received, 100% packet loss Wonder what this means.

(3) Now, to get Flapi working I guessed the following corrections were needed. Screenshot5(2).png However, I now get an error: "Failure registering with Flathub repository." I enabled Qsync and NTP server as OCEANIA, that got rid of the error message, leaving just the usual error message ...

What happens if you launch it from a terminal: # ec-chroot kirkstone easy It seems that the problem with 5.15.150+ kernel is due to a commit that affects only the Picasso/Raven AMD GPU. At least so it seems, after examining the changelog. I have contacted the kernel developer who submitted that pat...

The update 5.7 to 5.8 was without apparent problem (Processor AMD E-350 APU with Radeon HD Graphics)
But the server X crashes when the kirskstone container is launched.

Update 5.8 to 5.8.1. Same problem with the kirkstone container (no problem with the booksworm container previously installed)

Opened a terminal and typed in "ping -4 -c 1 -w 5 google.com" Result: "1 packets transmitted, 0 packets received, 100% packet loss" Yet, all web browsers work OK? puzzling? Averoigne Have you tested google.com in browser ? Also, navigated to "/usr/local/appimage", but ...

In Appi (/usr/local/appimage/appimage line 412) and Flappi (/usr/local/flatpak/flatpak line 42 and line 522), the internet connection is tested by ping to google (EDIT : addition of line 522)

Code: Select all

ping -4 -c 1 -w 5 google.com

Test this command in terminal to see if this is the cause of the problem

Same thing for me. I have installed Dcontrol (https://forum.puppylinux.com/viewtopic.php?p=106439) [ Remark for BarryK : dcontrol is not installed in Easy 5.7 but it is called in EasySetup (Hardware, Screenbrightness)] Again the settings are not applied at boot.

Did you do what I suggested, run this before installing the devx pet:
Code: Select all
# xbps-install -S
There is currently a sync issue, which is why I recommended do that.

No but i had launched PKGget a few minutes earlier.

I tested the installation of qv 240419. No problem. Then installation of devx. No devx in PKGget even after refresh of the database. So i downloaded the pet package on ibiblio.

Thanks for the tip. I did that but it had no effect. The wallet popup persists each time I start the browser. It was a bad tip. Brave wallet is for cryptocurrencies.

Why is there an annoying popup window when starting Brave browser?
How do I remove or suppress "wallet"?
Thanks.

Have you try to disable the wallet ?

In brave://flags search "Enable Brave Wallet" and replace Default by Disabled

I noticed that there is no help button on the desktop.
There was an explanation of QV at first bootup, but I closed it quickly and
I haven't discovered where it is located since.

EDIT : in installpreview.sh, line 107 the variable DB_FILE is defined as "current-repo-triad" that is equal to "void-current" by default, so line 114 the test always passes and the search of dependencies takes place in void-current even if the package to install is in a pet repo...

For academic interest, please clarify whether QV can be installed in entire partition and how to load the same.i.e Full Installation. I do not know how to do it, nor even it is possible.
