the nvidia card user can build the driver with this patch,btw i have tried to rebuild kernel with the nemesis config but no way, so i am with a default kernel and no nvidia module build.

ahh rather than keep editting above post this focusses on just one minor issue....minor as it does not resolve cgmanager log errors

https://abchk1234.wordpress.com/category/openrc/
polkit-consolekit and polkit are in conflict
I am not really sure so will now slink away

Try this command from the console prompt when you boot to textmode on the new machine....comes from brokenman:
exec ck-launch-session dbus-launch startlxde
Finally.

Ctrl+C to exit. Resigning on as guest I got the GDBus error msg again. But it should be noted the last 2 digits keep changing. This time '2292'.
if you run "ck-list-sessions" from a terminal in X, it'll probably show nothing.
Correct. Nothing as guest and nothing as root.

@Ed_P

Try, as guest, "startx /usr/bin/startlxde".....if that doesn't work, try "lxdm"....need to sudo or su.

Then run the ck-list-sessions again.

Ed_P,

So, you weren't able to start X with lxdm either? Your post is confusing as it looks as if the commands were run from a terminal, rather than the console.

As for consolekit, you can run "/etc/init.d consolekit restart" and hopefully it will kick in. Seems consolekit is somewhat tempermental, I had problems with it this morning.

Now for the data cd it actually is a bit worse, the eject button works somewhat in that on my tower the tray opens and filemanager closes
but I don't get a chance to remove disc as tray then wants to close again.
Pressing the hardware eject cd button takes two goes before tray stays open.
I remember this bugfrom a few years ago. It was to do with polling times on optical media. Please try killing udev and ejecting the cdtray.

Code: Select all

for a in `pgrep -f udevd`; do kill $a ;done
eject -T /dev/cdrom  <--- (it may be /dev/sr0)
How to taste (sweet or bitter)? I go skiing - a lot of snow in Russia
We call the taste - bittersweet. Have fun skiing. Be safe.
is porteus-nemesis-v3.5-kde-x86_64.iso should be 209MB only?
Correct. It is a lightweight version.
The problem is that starting Porteus in graphic mode in this way,
Strange that lxdm is not starting everything correctly. Please try booting into text mode.

Code: Select all

echo "exec ck-launch-session dbus-launch startlxde" > /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc
startx
OS: Porteus-v3.4
Thanks for this output. I need ot update /etc/porteus-version
And when signing on as root the task bar icons are not right.
I have not copied over the files from guest account to root account.

Code: Select all

cp -r /home/guest/* /root
Logout and login again.
Also the ids on system could be updated?
Yours /usr/share/hwdata/usb.ids
Thanks.
But I didn't understand that it gave me
It looks like it allows you to run libvdpau with flash content.
chmod 777 /tmp/pacaurtmp-guest
Why? pacaur is working only in guest account?
Because it is responsible. pacaur is only to be run as guest, it will ask you for root password when it needs it. If you boot into root then before running pacaur use - su guest
Might be coming from linuxrc...I get it too, haven't looked yet.
Yes it is the code to remove any instance of inittab that may have been added to changes to prevent respawn issue. I will silence the output.
hi the kernel used for the new nemesis,brokenman consider to apply the patch:
Can you please give me the source of the patch?

@Ed_P

I just got past the same error you have:

(EE)
Fatal server error:
(EE) xf86OpenConsole: Cannot open /dev/tty0 (No such file or directory)

(EE)
The only way I could get an Xsession and have consolekit working as guest was with this command:

"exec ck-launch-session dbus-launch startx /usr/bin/startxfce4"......I'm doing an Xfce4 build....in your case, change the startxfce4 to startlxde.

Now to figure out why I can't change the background.......

Thanks Donald.

Aus9 I have no idea why lsusb is not showing device names since lsusb -v shows them.
usbutils (contains lsusb) and hwids (contains the .ids files) packages are the latest from manjaro.

              urandom | boot 
Now I am thinking as I don't have a rc.local maybe I should make up a
/etc/local.d/<scriptname>.start
that calls
/etc/init.d/<scriptname>

EDIT local starts from default so have to use default and update to use boot rather default or sysinit?

more reading but just some musings......
