      I found that the problem is the existence of folders in /etc/sv/

      Do this and reboot

      sudo rm -r /etc/sv/connman
      sudo rm -r /etc/sv/dbus

      If you want to avoid writing errors, you could also remove:

      /etc/sv/acpi-support
      /etc/sv/anacron
      /etc/sv/avahi-daemon
      /etc/sv/bluetooth
      /etc/sv/cron
      /etc/sv/cups
      /etc/sv/dundee
      /etc/sv/gpm
      /etc/sv/haveged
      /etc/sv/ofono
      /etc/sv/rmnologin
      /etc/sv/rpcbind
      /etc/sv/rsync
      /etc/sv/saned
      /etc/sv/smartmontools
      /etc/sv/ssh
      /etc/sv/sudo

      I will contact the dev team and ask if there is a better solution.

        I installed the updated kernel, but I still can’t upgrade the distro at the command line or using the antix updater…. Welcome a tip from the gurus…

            Yeah. I am not hip on the latest hardware but I do know some newer gear includes bluetooth in the wireless card area. Combo wireless N/Bluetooth.

            I see the cards for sell on newegg but they are desktop computer cards instead of laptop cards.

              With my internal bluetooth . I usually start out with bios to see if it is enabled 1st before moving on to check on other things.

              Maybe lsusb -t might give some luck here as far as listing driver used and if operating system sees it.

              I know dmesg | tail

              Might mention something also.

              I also use

              inxi -v8

              to get usb info also. I usually post in a thread pertinent info before asking a question. Something I do rarely here anymore.

              Good luck.

                (UPDATE: after rebooting and carefully messing with various files (/etc/network/interfaces, /etc/resolv.conf [thru /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/base)and figuring out how to paste my network passphrase into the ceni/wpa_supplicant screen), the SMCWUSB-N3 wifi adapter did connect to my network and I have internet access via wifi on the “afflicted” system. Parenthetically, I realize that rt3070.bin is distinct from the driver rt2800usb.

                My remaining issue with this system is to determine if the internal card (combo wifi/bluetooth) is broken. When I have time, I will try other linux distros, since neither of the recent antix ones I tried have worked with the internal card.

                I remain open to suggestions for how I might check the integrity of the hardware. When I have stepped away for awhile, I will search online for hardware tests that I might attempt.)

                Hi,

                Previous posting earlier this morning hasn’t shown up, so I am reposting.

                Trying to follow Xecure’s suggestions, I have used two USB sticks – one with a full Antix 17 and one with a full Antix 19, my two other laptops (a Lenovo Yoga 11e and an Opowered LP-1 [gaming laptop from Walmart])
                as “controls” to assure that the distros and the sticks were OK.

                On the Lenovo, both sticks worked fine including wifi.

                On the Opowered laptop, the 19.4 distro boots to a command line instead of the GUI. I tried “startx”, but received a “server refused connection” error. Just not sure how to follow that up.
                The 17.4 distro booted to X directly. The touchpad didn’t work, but a USB mouse did. It connected to the internet after I edited /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/base (which was empty) and added a nameserver.

                My sense at this time is that the internal wireless is broken and I need to try an external dongle that has linux support. I am having trouble getting this laptop to recognize the one I have which uses the Ralink 2800 driver (rt3070.bin). Maybe only because I haven’t installed it properly (used apt and installed the miscellaneous firmware nonfree package).

                I need to work on other stuff for a while and will post again after I get some time to explore further.

                  Also the firewall has a -. I was taking then a look to Control Center / System / Choose Startup Services:

                  zram has a x in runlevel 2,3,4,5 (not S). The firewall (ufw) has x in runlevel S (no other). udev also has a x in runlevel S. So why ufw is – and udev i + on the above list? And why zram is – and anyway working?

                  Last questions: Is algorithm lzo ok for zram? In zswap they say, that lz4 and lz4ho are better. But how I would change this? In the zram script it is not set…so default lzo. And also zram script is using another methode to create the zram? No zramctl to see there. Or can I use zramctl on a existing zram, without to change the size or to create it new?

                    Your issue requires a lot of information, like the Device ID, what firmware you have installed, the Bluetooth packages installed, kernel version, etc.
                    I think it will be quicker for you to compare with a live antiX Linux full edition (even if it is not SID), just to see what drivers are used (to figure out the packages you need), see if everything works OK with ceni+blueman with that specific wireless chip. Starting fro net or core requires a lot of knowledge and experience, and even more if you run with Debian sid repos.

                    Start with a working system, understand how it is working, and then return to the sid based and compare behavior.
                    lspci -nnk
                    Will give you info on each pci device (including the device ID) and what kernel driver they are using. you can use the device ID in linuxhardware to see what kernels versions support the device and what driver they use (and if they require blacklisting some drivers or not).
                    You may need to check dmesg error messages to see if the driver is expecting to find a firmware file and can’t, or if the driver loads with an error, etc.
                    Compare all things between the live working system and your sid+net system. If a firmare is missing in one, figure out what package has it in the working system
                    dpkg -S /path/to/firmware.fw
                    Where the firmware name is provided by the dmesg error.

                    There is a lot of work involved, so see how far you can figure out and let us know when you encounter a block, with some more detail. This will be faster than waiting for someone here to start guessing how your system is set up and play a hit-and-miss game.

                      Hi all,

                      (UPDATE: details of rfkill lists and effects – see details below bottom line.)

                      BOTTOM LINE:
                      I can’t use my built wireless card (a combo Wifi and Bluetooth Intel 4965) because of a stream of error messages that interfere with function). With the physical wireless switch turned OFF, I can use a usb wifi dongle OK. I think I either have a problem with rfkill, with the intel firmware, other bluetooth packages that I haven’t installed or a combination of these. Appreciate hearing any suggestions to diagnose and fix.

                      Thanks in advance.

                      stevesr0

                      Details:

                      I am running an originally minimal Sid install which I have now increased by the addition of a “mild” Openbox based GUI and just attempted to enable the built in wireless, which is a combo wifi and Bluetooth card (Intel 4965).

                      However, when this is enabled, I get a continual stream of error messages (“unexpected event for opcode 0x0000”) which fill the screen in CLI mode and interfere with function when I am running X. “Rfkill block bluetooth” doesn’t help. If I disable the card completely USING THE PHYSICAL SWITCH and use a wifi USB dongle, I don’t get these errors and I can connect fine to the internet.

                      With former installs of Antix, I was able to use the built in wifi, so I am not sure what is causing the problem.

                      I didn’t have Bluetooth packages installed prior to attempting to enable wifi (using ceni). I have installed all the bluetooth related packages that seem necessary after this problem surfaced.

                      Perhaps one clue that I am not able to make sense of is that rfkill isn’t “reading” the block correctly when I have the physical switch turned off and on. (I will have to check this after I post this message and add the actual listings).

                      UPDATE – RFKILL list results:

                      Physical switch OFF:
                      phy0: Soft Block NO, Hard Block YES
                      phy1: Soft Block NO, Hard Block NO
                      (No Bluetooth line)

                      Physical switch ON:
                      phy0: Soft Block YES, Hard Block NO
                      phy1: Soft Block YES, Hard Block NO
                      Bluetooth: Soft Block YES, Hard Block NO

                      Have explored this on the internet. Have not seen a discussion of a similar problem.

                        Am posting this from the “afflicted” laptop running Sid, using WIFI!

                        What I had to do was add a nameserver to the /etc/resolv.conf.d/base file (which modified my resolv.conf files), and (IIRC) allow-hotplug wlan1 and iface wlan1 inet dhcp to /etc/network/interfaces.

                        I assume the messed up configuration was (at least in part) due to my failure to have resolvconf installed when I started to setup wifi.

                        So, this is solved WITH THE FOLLOWING CAVEATS:

                        a) I can’t use my internal wireless/bluetooth card (Intel 4965) because of a stream of error messages which interfere. I am going to post a separate thread about this.

                        b) The wifi USB dongle I am using seems to connect automagically after booting, after a delay. When I try to use ceni to launch the wifi, it just asks what I want to configure and doesn’t seem to “want” to just scan and select a network to connect to…Not clear if this is because this dongle is already configured and is in process of connecting?

                        Thanks for comments.

                          An update has not been possible for a few days. Here is the message from the terminal:

                          I don’t use bluetooth and don’t need it. Should I uninstall it and try the update again?

                                OK, making slow progress as the pointer still has a mind of it’s own until I sort out the touchpad but to assist further, here is my system configuration at present:-

                                I edited /etc/conky/conky.conf to add the time parameter but this has not worked. I thought conky.conf took precedence but will edit conkyrc as you advise and see what happens.

                                No idea how to sort this out. As you advised, not totally necessary but it does help to have conky display correct when sorting out APs.

                                Thanks for your replies and I hope you can shed a bit more light in due course.

                                  I have been experimenting a bit with pipewire, and I can say it is the perfect replacement for pulseaudio. I have no experience with JACK, so I will only explain how it works managing my audio on my system.

                                  PipeWire is a server and user space API to deal with multimedia pipelines. It will be very important for Wayland server (streaming audio/video between applications and screen sharing), but it is still very useful for us xorg users.

                                  Currently in antiX-bullseye-a2 (testing, future antiX 21), it is good enough to manage input/output audio for all my devices on my laptop. I have it set up mainly to replace pulseaudio (not installed on my system). It doesn’t require systemd and, though a service could be created for it, it is NOT needed. I have it installed with a bluetooth module, and I am able to stream audio to my bluetooth headphones (a bit jumpy, but good enough for me), use pavucontrol to manage the volume and switch between audio input/output, play audio in firefox (without apulse!!) and all this using less CPU % compared to pulseaudio (still uses more than just pure ALSA, but negligible in my experience). It also has a good audio level compared to when I am using pulseaudio and similar to pure ALSA (but this may depend on the device, and may only be my experience).

                                  Official Debian Instructions here: https://wiki.debian.org/PipeWire

                                  Summary of what I have done on my system:

                                  1. Install pipewire with audio client libraries (optional, for replacing pulseaudio, jack and handling alsa requests) and bluetooth modules (optional, for bluetooth audio streaming).
                                  sudo apt install pipewire pipewire-audio-client-libraries libspa-0.2-bluetooth
                                  1.2 (Optional) I installed pavucontrol (without pulseaudio) to manage volume control and device switching. I prefer this to alsamixer and Sound Card Chooser. For what I use it, it is good enough.

                                  2. I add pipewire to the startup commands so it launches with the system. I edit ~/.desktop-session/startup and add it close to the beginning:

                                  # Startup pipewire to manage my audio
                                  pipewire &

                                  3.(Optional) Prepare it to replace pulseaudio. I follow the Debian wiki instructions and create a file for pipewire:
                                  sudo touch /etc/pipewire/media-session.d/with-pulseaudio
                                  and also add another startup command to ~/.desktop-session/startup

                                  # Replace pulseaudio functionality with pipewire
                                  pipewire-pulse &

                                  4. (Optional) Also pipe all programs that would use alsa to use pipewire instead (makes it consistent with pulseaudio volume and lets me control all system audio with pavucontrol interface and same audio commands). I follow the Debian instructions and create the files:

                                  sudo touch /etc/pipewire/media-session.d/with-alsa
                                  sudo cp /usr/share/doc/pipewire/examples/alsa.conf.d/99-pipewire-default.conf /etc/alsa/conf.d/

                                  5. (Optional) Let pipewire manage JACK. I have followed the Debian wiki instructions but I have never used JACK for anything before. I discovered qjackctl recently in a forum post and just wanted to see what it was. Maybe I will use this in the future, so I set it up anyway.

                                  sudo touch /etc/pipewire/media-session.d/with-jack
                                  sudo cp /usr/share/doc/pipewire/examples/ld.so.conf.d/pipewire-jack-*.conf /etc/ld.so.conf.d/

                                  Here is a screenshot of qjackctl of how the audio is set up right now on my system (using bluetooth headset that includes microphone to listen to youtube on firefox, with pavucontrol open to manage volume and input/output devices):

                                  PROBLEMS:
                                  Not everything is sunshine. There are shadows (at least for me).
                                  A. Volumeicon is useless after setting all this up. The volume slider barely moves sometimes (it seems blocked by something), and others slightly moving it increases the volume to almost 100% (almost making me deaf). I have disabled it from startup, but I could use it for launching pavucontrol by changing the mixer command.
                                  B. Default hotkeys/key-bindings for increasing/decreasing audio (using amixer command) doesn’t work properly. Sometimes it just blocks the audio in one channel and others volume goes too loud or too low, or gets stuck in mute. I have replaced them to use pulseaudio commands instead:

                                  pactl set-sink-volume @DEFAULT_SINK@ -5%
                                  pactl set-sink-volume @DEFAULT_SINK@ +5%

                                  C. It doesn’t remember volume levels at all from one session to the next (not a real problem compared to normal ALSA behavior, but it is worse compared to normal pulseaudio).
                                  D. Related to B. Alsamixer doesn’t seem to match volume values with pulseaudio. They seem to work in different scales and show 0 when the other shows >0%, and jumps of 10% in one may be a 30% volume jump in the other.
                                  E. Though long use of Bluetooth headphones has improved (no sudden disconnects after 5 minutes without audio output), I get more stuttering and distortions (sometimes), but it could be related to my bluetooth card or headset (always had some problems, so I am OK with current experience).

                                  So, this is my experience so far. Have you tested this out yourself? What was your experience?
