Hello,

I recently acquired a T400 Thinkpad with 1440×900 panel.
On this T400, I installed Hyperbola, just like on my x200 Thinkpad with 1280×800 panel.

Both Thinkpad are running the same Hyperbola installation :

Full disk encryption (with Libreboot) so both Thinkpad are using early KMS (MODULES=”i915” in /etc/mkinitcpio.conf)
Same kernel : linux-libre-lts (4.9.99 at the moment I’m writing this message)
video driver : modesetting
DE : xfce4 with xfwm4

On the Thinkpad x200, everything works great, no issue to report.

On the T400 though, the linux-libre-lts kernel, I’m getting random display freezes, when it happens, this message appears in dmesg :

hpd interrupt storm detected on connector hdmi-a-1

And the display (and sound) freezes for 10 seconds (sometimes more !)

As Hyperbola proposes linux-libre-lts kernel only, I installed latest linux-libre-lts (4.14.40) and linux-libre (4.16.8) from Parabola GNU/Linux repo.

Results :

With 4.14.40 : Same issue as with 4.9.99 kernel from Hyperbola repo.
With 4.16.8 : Issue is not present ! No more freeze !

I’m not sure how to proceed though. Would you be kind enough helping me to find which commit in i915 driver improved the situation ? If we find it, maybe it could be added as a patch to 4.9.x kernel series.
Or maybe it is something else.. I don’t have much experience, I can provide logs if needed.

Thanks for your help

Hello,

Could it be possible to add this package :

multipath-tools

“Multipath tools for Linux (including kpartx)”

License : GPL2

to the repo ?

Thank you

gufw 17.04.1-3

Impossible to start application, error message :

FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] Aucun fichier ou dossier de ce type: '/usr/sbin/ufw': '/usr/sbin/ufw'

With kodi 17.1-2.hyperbola1 “The Movie Database” scraper doesn’t work. The error message is :

"Unable to connect to remote server"

### Some context ###

I use hdajackretask on my G41M-ES2L motherboard (Libreboot)

Alsamixer doesn’t offer automute feature so every time I plug my headphones, the sound is playing by my speakers.
So to work around this, I use hdajackretask from alsa-tools package.

It allows to install a boot override to solve the issue.

Yesterday, I reinstalled Hyperbola on my system and the boot override because of missing /lib/firmware directory. (Although it was present before, something changed ?)

The error message was (I translate)

/mv: can't move '/tmp/hda-jack-retask-VH3KIZ/hda-jack-retask.fw' to /lib/firmware/hda-jack-retask.fw' No file or folder of this type

So I created a folder “firmware” in /lib/
and copied hda-jack-retask.fw in it.

Then I rebooted, 100% working.

I don’t know if the fix should apply to the PKGBUILD of alsa-tools (to create a /lib/firmware directory) or something else ?

Please add dhcpcd-ui, it is very nice replacement to networkmanager (and network-manager-applet). It works fine combined with wpa_supplicant for wireless networks.

Hello,

gparted_polkit doesn’t work, error message (polkit is installed on my system)

Error executing command as another user: No authentication agent found.

If using :

sudo gparted

or

gksu gparted

It works. By default with xfce, the gparted launcher uses gparted_polkit though.

Hello,

With iceweasel-uxp, some info boxes are not translated, for now I noticed that when the mouse cursor hovers “add tab” element, the info box showing up is still using english (although I’m using French and the rest is ok), this is very, very minor issue I know.. :o)

With latest 0.3 hyperbola, with the (simple) following partitioning :

/ (ext4)
/swap

The standard HOOK in /etc/mkinitcpio.conf

"HOOKS="base udev autodetect modconf block filesystems keyboard fsck"

fails to include crc32c_generic module, resulting in non bootable system.

The generated fallback initramfs include it though.

The issue was not present with 0.2.9, with the exact same partitioning.

Hello,

Would it be possible to get a package bump for mpv ?

Currently, Debian Buster (stable) uses 0.29.1-1. This would be great as it introduces many fixes and support for lua scripts I heavily use.
0.29.* requires a ffmpeg to 4.x series as well.

Thanks.

Hello,

Could it be possible to add this package :

octopi

“A powerful Pacman frontend using Qt5 libs, without nonfree pacaur and yaourt recommendation”

https://www.parabola.nu/packages/pcr/x86_64/octopi/

License : GPL2

Thanks

Octopi 0.9.0 is uploading system logs to ptpb.pw without confirmation through :

Tools
→ SysInfo → ptpb.pw

I think it should be either disabled or add at least a patch to ask for a confirmation.
An other way could be to patch this :

src/globals.cpp
240: * Generates SysInfo file and paste it to ptpb site
255:  QString ptpb = UnixCommand::getCommandOutput("curl -F c=@- https://ptpb.pw/?u=1", tempFile->fileName());
256:  return ptpb;

to :

src/globals.cpp
240: * Generates SysInfo file and paste it to ptpb site
255:  QString ptpb = UnixCommand::getCommandOutput("curl -F c=@- **https://ptpb.pw/", tempFile->fileName());
256:  return ptpb;

This way, you can at least ask for log deletion with the help of log uuid as explained here : https://ptpb.pw/#id10
