Sound problems with Xonar DG
by Joe Schillinger 06 Jan '15

06 Jan '15

Hello, I've installed a custom kernel (3.18.1) with the ck patch and support for my hardware (including snd_oxygen for my sound card) but I'm not getting any sound output. I've tried running alsamixer, it fails with: ALSA lib dlmisc.c:252:(snd_dlobj_cache_get) Cannot open shared library /usr/lib/alsa-lib/libasound_module_ctl_pulse.so cannot open mixer: No such device or address I'd previously tried using Pulseaudio to fix what I presume was a completely different problem, but have since removed it. Alsamixer will run as root (my user is in the audio group, however), and when I turn on the Analog Input Monitor I can hear the microphone. So, I'm presuming the sound card is working, I just can't get it to output normally. What would be the problem? Is it worth trying to get Pulse to work? How can I fix that Pulse-related error message if it isn't? lsmod shows that snd_oxygen is in fact installed. lspci | grep Audio says the Oxygen card is found. Thanks, Joe

RE: installing xfce4-mixer on Crux-3.1 failed due to the lack of gstreamer-plugins-base

Ding! Thats one of the current rough edges of linux. Do U roll back, drop the package you wanted to make, petition the author of the software to support the newer gstreamer, or switch to pulse & or petition the author to support pulse?.........so many questions.

However when I tried to install xfce4-mixer the installation failed as it has been required gstreamer-plugins-base-0.10 (at least version 0.10.25). I have tried installing gstreamer, for a beginning, but the output says gstreamer is already installed. thanks. Cezar

installing xfce4 on Crux-3.1 failed due to the lack of gtk and libnotify
by Cezar Rangel 06 Jan '15

06 Jan '15

I have run #prg-get -if depinst xfce4 but the installation failed and the reason was lack of the package gtk and libnotify. I have tried to install libnotify but it failed again because the lack of gtk again. I have checked (/usr/ports/contrib) and gtk is installed so it is a matter of upgrading the package, I suppose. So I think I have to use pkdgadd to upgrading the package, but I have checked that there are the packages gtk-doc, gtk-engine-murrine, gtk-recordmydesktop, gtkglest, gtkmm, gtkspell. Shall I upgrade all of them? I also faced some difficult with the name and version of the package to run #pkgadd -u <package>. I looked at the Pkgfile, for example, of gtk-doc and verified that its version is 1.19, so the package to be upgraded would be: gtk-doc-1.19.tar.xz or gtk-doc-1.19.pkg.tar.xz (sorry for this newby part of my question).

Re: Troubleshooting CRUX 3.1 fresh install - USB keyboard issue

Hello Wawrzek! Thanks for replying! Happy New Year to you! > I'm not an installation expert, but CRUX media is on the > USB stick, not your hard drive. Right! > Are you sure your USB image is OK? I didn't check the .ISO file against the MD5 checksum, but I guess it's OK because it boots fine once 'burned' into the USB stick. For anyone interested, in the meantime, I borrowed & plugged a PS/2 keyboard to be able to go to the next installation step. Unfortunately, all the mount commands I tried to tell the CRUX installation to check the /dev/sdc1 filesystem for the CRUX media failed (mount /dev/sdc1 /.tmpfs/.media). Re: > I have an error message saying that the CRUX media > is not properly mounted. Maybe my hardware is not supported by CRUX. I don't know the exact model of each devices so I tried the installation anyway. But I'm asking myself, if the boot phase of the CRUX 3.1 installation works, a simple fat32 mount command on the same device should work. Dominique.

installation and configuration of Crux with success
by Cezar Rangel 05 Jan '15

05 Jan '15

I immediately thank you all of the list who kindly answered all my questions when I first tried to install Crux with useful information. I registered and saved all the information given to use them at the appropriate time to do so. However, I have decided to start from scratch and reinstall Crux- 3.1, because the error messages have become many and complex. This time I held the excitement with Crux and I made no change in the contents of the installation media kernel. As a result, the installation went smooth and without errors . I got to the point of #ports -u and # prt -get sysup with no problem. The internet connection is perfect and the intel ethernet controller has been reconized at once. In the next step , I will go into graphics mode. I followed the guidance, by Don Cupp, that highlighted that the network connection should be created after a fresh installation of Crux. I expanded the guidance for all the other configuration itens without changing the contents of the installation media kernel. So, as very well advised by Don Cupp, I decided to "Follow the yellow brick road, follow follow follow, follow the yellow brick road.:)". This way, step by step, the installation has gone to the point I have mentioned above with success. I will return to the list with further questions. Cezar

after running nvidia-xconfig the mouse and the keyboard cannot be used in graphic mode
by Cezar Rangel 02 Jan '15

02 Jan '15

Hi everyone. It is my first time with Crux 3.1 and after installing it I managed not to get a kernel panic. That was great and I am amazed at Crux 3.1 still studying it a lot. I have installed nvidia to improve the graphic mode. after that, when I run $startx I managed to run openbox but the mouse and the keyboard (both usb) cannot be used. also, there is an error message before startx when I am still in text mode which says: "error opening usb device 'descriptors' file. when I run lsub the result is: lsusb Bus 002 Device 002: ID 04e8:61b6 Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd M3 Portable Hard Drive 1TB Bus 002 Device 003: ID 04e8:61b6 Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd M3 Portable Hard Drive 1TB Bus 003 Device 002: ID 04e8:344f Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd SCX-3400 Series Bus 003 Device 005: ID 046d:0825 Logitech, Inc.

I would thank so much if a solution could be found cezar

Troubleshooting CRUX 3.1 fresh install - USB keyboard issue
by dodo1＠videotron.ca 02 Jan '15

02 Jan '15

Hello! My Google searches came up empty, so any help from you would be appreciated. I'm trying to install CRUX 3.1 on a new computer using the ISO download on a USB key. The computer has a USB keyboard and USB mouse, among others. 1) USB keyboard and USB mouse are OK in the UEFI BIOS. 2) USB keyboard is OK at the "boot:" prompt. So I guess that the USB Legacy option in the BIOS is OK. 3) I select any of the offered options, and let the boot process run to its end. 4) I have an error message saying that the CRUX media is not properly mounted. I expect this kind of error because my filesystems on sda1 (vfat) and sda2 (ext4) are completely empty. However: 5) My USB keyboard is no longer responding. (so I can't mount anything from there) Is there some option I could change on my CRUX 3.1 USB key to address the keyboard issue? PS: I'm not a Linux 'Professional', but I learn something new about it every day... and I would really like to use CRUX on my new PC. PS2: DON'T LET ME INSTALL WINDOWS 8 ON THAT PC !!!! Thanks in advance! HAPPY NEW YEAR! Dominique.
