100%
4.02 Task Description

Eltrans was the easiest way to get big parts of the os translated for free. It needs to go live again, so what is the problem that prevents it from working? Is there any way we could write a new version of it so you do not need to waste your time? In that case, what are your requiremetns and what kind of interface should we give it so that it can just be put in place of the older one?

It’d be great a non graphical installtion like debian’s one, so that older hardware with low memory (under 512mb) will be able to install the os without needing to swap and, possibly, taking less than a hour.

100%
2 Task Description

system: elive 1.8.8 (downloaded from elivecd.org) installed on inspiron 1520

the default language is us and it is OK... the problem is when i change the keyboard layout to estonian in elpanel, the output of the keys is totally mangled. it looks something like a mix between webdings and chinese

since the layout is NOT giving latin letters, the user is unable to log in. this is a big problem for those new users trying out linux/elive... they have no idea how to fix xorg.conf themselves.

logging in from command line i was able to see that the xorg.conf had “et” as a layout instead of “ee”

after changing the layout to “ee” manually, everything works again

Whenever I am away from my PC for about five minutes without putting it to sleep, when I move the mouse it decides to have a blank screen with lines on it. The PC then stops responding and I have to force-reboot which wastes time and battery.

Thanks!! (Version 3.8.2 beta)

Hola! Tengo tres problemas:


1- Al cerrar sesión el sistema se bloquea.

2- Cuando pongo el equipo en suspensión o le doy a hibernar, me ocurre que al volver al escritorio Internet no funciona y si reinicio todo vuelve a la normalidad, esto ya me pasaba con el sistema estable.

3- Cuando intento actualizar no me deja y todo es darle al botón pero ahí se queda sin poder actualizar.


P. D. - Por lo demás todo perfecto.

Un saludo!

 730 2019-05-022019-05-11Bug Report Elive 3.0.4 Session ends without prevention. Closedmaxinou
100%
1 Task Description

Hello,

I upgraded my system to 3.0.4 and after that, while I’m working, very often, session end and GUI restart into log screen (usually I logged in automatically, because I’m the only user of my computer).

It’s a critical problem to me because I lost almost all work in LibreOffice even if I try to save my documents very often.

Even while I was writing this bug report my system crashed again. I’ll try to reinstall 3.0.4 or even returns to 3.0.3 version.

Hoping this bug will be solved.

Best regards.

Luis

 721 2018-09-102020-02-01Bug Report Old, unsupported graphics Closedstoppy98
100%
3.x (beta's)1 Task Description

I’d liked to test elive’s minimum requirements putting together some of the oldest piecies of hardware i have lying aroud.
I begun trying it out with a old motherboard, a sf2/661fx rev 1.1, which features sis integrated graphics/sis 964l (which is pretty common in old pentium 4 based office desktop computers), mounting a ‘01 2.44 GHz pentium 4 (https://ark.intel.com/products/27438/Intel-Pentium-4-Processor-2_40-GHz-512K-Cache-533-MHz-FSB), 512 mb 266mhz ddr ram and a classical ide hdd.
It looked like a possible common set up for older computers, and i was surprised finding out that there was no way to boot in graphical mode! None of the options given, either in pae or older kernel, not even the special graphics failing mode!
Then i added a vanta 16 (which i noticed in here was a often times used cheap af graphics card in older pentium 4s, as it was the msi nvidia tnt2 riva m64/m64 pro, which gave me the same results as the vanta being based on the same hw/drivers). Despite if i’m not mistaken it was supposed to support 76xx drivers (which should be avaialble in the repos), i needed to switch to the free drivers. It let me choose keyboard language and system language correctly., then when getting to the desktop it gave me a black screen :/ the mouse was visible though, so i think there must be a workaround (i will try to find it as soon as i have time)
then moved to geforce 2 mx200/mx400. Supposed to work fine with either legacy drivers 76xx or 96xx, both gave me several graphical errors. nosense screen resolution (like 600×480) and i was unable to use either the dock or the applications menu. Terminal took forever to open and everything was mostly unusable. Tried again with all the boot options, looks like working fine only using the free drivers options (both with the newer and older kernel). No graphics acceleration available, even if in windows 98 graphics acceleration was available.
Using the software acceleration caused a heavy load on the poor p4, which meant random freezes whenever it had to open an heavy application/installing something with apt-get (and the bottleneck wasn’t the ram or some sort of swapping, never hit 300 mbs of used ram!). Tried switching to e16, nothing changed.
The machine worked perfectly (and same for all the graphics options listed here)under windows 98/xp and debian stretch with i3-wm. Only issue was the sis chipset unable to elaborated 3d graphics for a lack of compatible drivers in linux, but i’ve been running q4os (debian jessie, later stretch, + TDE at the time) without having too much troubles. DE worked perfectly, at least

Hibernate are not working at all.
When I press button Hibernate the screen become totally black,
only mouse is active and can’t do anything,
i waited around 2 minutes and nothing changes so i restarted my laptop by power button.

PS. I installed “powermanagement-interface” package
and edited “/etc/default/grub” by adding there new line:
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT=”resume=/dev/sda5”

and now i am using “pm-hibernate” (from terminal) and it’s works well but i want do it from button.

Also i want to know where this action scripts are stored i mean “Power Off”, “Suspend”, “Lock”, “Reboot”, “Hibernate”, “Log Out” ?
I edited file “/etc/enlightenment/sysactions.conf”
by editing line:
“action: hibernate /usr/sbin/hiber.sh”

in hiber.sh i have > “pm-hibernate” command.
But this doesn’t work so i only can go to hibernate from console by command “pm-hibernate” :(

Hibernation just blanks screen, session still life in background (sound movie still playing) system unresponsive (mouse works, no screen).

The driver loaded after the installation by the module cpufreq is wrong. In the Live version, it use the acpi-cpufreq driver, which is the good one for Intel Atom proc I guess. In the Installed version, the driver used is p4-clockmod so the cpu scaling frequency and power management is not done correctly.

3.01 Task Description

Hi,
I use elive installed on a Dell D410 laptop with Broadcom BCM4311 wifi card. I can see networks, but I’m unable to connect to anyone because dhclient is unable to obtain an IP address.
I tried other wifi cards (Realtek, D-Link), and it is always same problem. All these cards are supported by Debian Lenny or Ubuntu 8.04.
I really like elive and wouldn’t go back to Lenny because of this wifi problem.

Thanks for help.

Could be nice if we have an e17 module to limit the windows to be in the screen limits, instead to pass over it. This is a useful feature for non-experienced users.

Note: this report has somewhere (i dont remember where) a list of features needed, like which options to have on it (like: limit the windows to be in-screen, limit the windows to be not entirely out of the screen, allow the window to be partially out, etc etc), is needed to check this list first (in hackers or in dev ? i dont remember right now)

1 Task Description

Hi,

I just have installed the last development release of elive on my dell inspiron 1300 laptop.

Everything went ok except that after the “fine tuning” of the installed system the network connection is not activated by the default by the system when doing a normal boot. For the moment i am using elive panel to access the network connector to connect the card to the internet (via DHCP) or ifconfig in the terminal.

I saw that the netconnector has a “auto-connect” feature which is ticked yet it seems it doesn’t work.

My ethernet card is a Broadcom Corporation BCM4401-B0 100Base-Tx card.

Thanks a lot for your help on this and congratulations for a fine linux distribution.
