after struggling to make keyboard in french as locale is not taken account sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales sudo dpkg-reconfigure keyboard-configuration sudo systemmctl restart console-setup.service setupcon <-- winner Screenshot taken with screengrab , How am I supposed to live without you screengrab the music..

I loose the HDMI signal and screen get black because startx (main launcher script to enter Xorg!) from xinit package has been forgotten to be installed. After doing the magic combination CTRL+ALT+F1/F2 and login in console mode, this will fix the issue and open the gates of cinnamon sudo apt install xinit Enjoy , SoSie

Hello @Going, I mean If uboot is available on a sdcard plugged in, it will boot on it else on emmc, Sometimes when UUID are the same, it is the last device discovered that overlaps. Wehen cloning emmc UUID back to sdcard do'nt change. My mind was to have a multiboot like refind or ventoy that helps if a system crashed. having a failsafe system aside to fix it graphically can be a must. Changing /boot/boot.cmd that affect u-boot may do the work

Hello all, I succeed to boot on sata usb by seting the UUID of the armbian_root from mmcblk1p1 to sda1 I tested several M2 SSD enclosures both NVME and NGFF most of the time, one in the middle, has a USB Hub and micro SDCARD port. Now if the USB enclosures is not connected, we are stuck in initramfs stage because the UIID partition given in /boot/ArmbianEnv.txt does not exist. I changed the UUID of emmc armbian_root (mmcblk1p1) thinking it would be overmapped with partition of S2 usb enclosure (sda1). It is not the case, it will only boot on emmc , ignoring S2 enclosures when mmcblk1p1 and sda1 shares the same UUID. I suggest USB enclosures should comes in higher boot priority than emmc after a bootable sdcard is present or not, so the end user is not lost in initramfs jungle.

This make Mac Book Air 2010 (Snow leopard) a breeze to Leo Tux ..just the trackpad is crazy but I used a mice - Big thanks to all the Armbian Team! YOUPIE OH!! Cheers SoSie.

I will answer my question very soon, but let me first introduce the candidate that bring us a lot of attention here: aegisub. Most of us think its dev has ended in 2018 and we are stuck to 3.2.2 since. It is not the case there are 2 candidates on the row. I made a big picture and bring the evaluation. I used latest armbian 24.2.1 bookworm arm64 on a sdcard for the test. At the begining it was armbian buster version. I override files and updrade package since. I ensured also to have hardware GL accel with the output on inxi -Gs, we have our Mali friend aboard. Nice! Let's start each aegisub to have the "Big Picture": I ordered from left to right the versions. What I discovered is the copyright date statement back to the past of aegisub 3.2.2 What happen to us when we try yo launch and chose a subtitle/ video file? -aegisub 2.30.2 , open with no popup, we can select a video and play it, sound is ok but we can not move in the video using the sound slider. When we play the video the sound slider does not move..Bad luck! -aegisub 3.2.2 : after cleaning lua scripts /usr/share/aegisub/automation due to unicode incompatibility used in karaskel that make crash aegisub on launch, we enjoy "Wx assert" popups that we can close by unchecking Show this dialog next time and click on Continue button When we open a video then it crash. Oh noo!!! Normally play ends here but many said snap is robust. So I look at it on snapcraft.io and there was a... -aegisub 3.3.3 is provided by procles which is a snap of wanqr latest release. A sudo apt install snapd and then snap install aegisub-procless. makes installation succeed, It installs the ubunto core 22 based ecosystem. Unfortunately, when we trigger it, it did not start. After digging a while , it is due to lua bug in 64 bits arch. I switched to 32bit bit removing snapd:arm64 and installing snap:armhf to force 32bit It went further but I remember we loosed the hardware accel this time . so snapd that could have saved us is not usable. For now, the only fully working aegisub with wx assert annoyances is using debootstrap with schroot in bookworm from jammy. I tried with latest bookworm , it works too.

Hello, Well, ladies and gentlemen, I done it, becoz I can't live without it when quitting cinnamon for xfce. It is like the thunar-archive-plugin (file-roller equivalent) that should be enabled by default imho. I decided to release it here , this is my gift to armbian team to thanks for their work. INSTALLATION If you follow the README.md, you will have the magic custom action added The demo: Enjoy SoSie thunar-open-as-root-plugin.zip

So now the question is DOES SOMEONE KNOW HOW TO MAKE LINUX CONTAINER WORK GRAPHICALLY UNDER Ubuntu JAMMY?

Hello all, As subtitler guy, I experienced many troubles making aegisub work. , I finally made the subtitle editor, working with hardware under armbian jammy but having still annoyances. I want to share my thought and my discoveries on it. First I would like to thanks all who post on this already, including alternative ways such as schroot and of course the armbian team for the improvements of the boot .. schroot allow to run an linux in a linux. According to what I experienced, meson driver development is leaded by oibaf and in advance in ubuntu but here aegisub does exists only on debian. The idea was thus to boot on debian jammy and chroot in debian buster armhf at least or better bookworm arm64. By doing so, I crashed many time aegisub 3.2.2 due to lua badly supported. schrooting and debian bookworm gives many warning messages (see the pict below, I washed the lua script directory too) but goes further if we dare to skip assert warnings. Moreover, at this point, we are no more dealing with Llvm (software accel using 100% of CPUs) but meson-drm and panfrost (harware accel, using 20% of CPUs). aegisub still remains very fragile but very responsive. So today I decided to switch and to boot into bookworm directly. After launching aegisub 3.20.3 on arm64 with panfrost enabled (you can check this with glxinfo -B, or inxi -Gs), I discovered it is very stable but suffered of responsivity due to a flood in the logs Hewitt has just given... a patch yesterday against "panfrost ffe40000.gpu: l2 power transition timeout" log flood here: https://lkml.org/lkml/2024/3/22/977 You will also be unable to set brightness by software (too bright for my eyes) at least on xfce4, trying my luck with all techniques https://askubuntu.com/questions/894465/changing-the-screen-brightness-of-the-external-screen that did not succeed except that ddcci-dkms gave me a clue during install : BACKLIGHT_CLASS_DEVICE disabled in this kernel I suggest enabling dkms and this for future kernel and taking Hewitt patch into account. With these findings, did someone has noticed the same and manage to make sound and videos responsive without unsync? PS/ For now, the armbian is on a sdcard, the log flood may be the cause of the unsync. I have to test further. Trying with latest jammy and schrooting under bookworm.
