Linux-current 6.0

darkness

The required module is no longer included in kernel 6.0.9:

sudo zcat /proc/config.gz | grep _FB_SIMPLE
# CONFIG_FB_SIMPLE is n

I am still using the Nvidia driver:

nvidia-390-glx-driver-modaliases            - These files are used by the Software Center for hardware detection
nvidia-470-glx-driver-modaliases            - These files are used by the Software Center for hardware detection
nvidia-docker                               - nvidia-docker CLI wrapper
nvidia-glx-driver-32bit                     - 32-bit libraries for NVIDIA Binary Driver
nvidia-glx-driver-common                    - Shared assets for the NVIDIA GLX Driver
nvidia-glx-driver-current                   - NVIDIA Binary Driver (Current Kernel)
nvidia-glx-driver-modaliases                - These files are used by the Software Center for hardware detection

Let me know if I should raise a ticket at the development tracker.

I think I have a similar issue. After upgrading (to Linux-current 6.0) FDE prompt is not showing -- no boot is happening. I tried the following:

https://getsol.us/articles/troubleshooting/boot-rescue/en/ -- no broken packages
Install on a spare SSD -- after upgrade same issue
Upgrade went well on a Thinkpad laptop (with FDE) and a NUC (no FDE)
Tried to boot the workstation with the NUC SSD -> worked well
Tried to downgrade via sudo eopkg history -t #before upgrade to Linux-current 6.0 -- did not work

The issue seems to be with FDE (luks/cryptsetup)

Host: Z170XP-SLI
CPU: Intel i7-7700K (8) @ 4.500GHz
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080

siru yes, possibly related to type of graphics driver. Previously @JoshStrobl fixed it.

Thank you.
Updated today to 6.0.9 on a System76 Thelio and all is working well.

Does it work if you blind enter your FDE password and then hit enter?

siru

ReillyBrogan Yes! Thank you for the idea/hint.

brent

wow we're on 6.0. unreal. thanks for your hard work ReillyBrogan and crew....no hiccups, smooth update for Budgie.

brent thanks for your hard work ReillyBrogan and crew....no hiccups, smooth update for Budgie.

That's for sure. Smooth and hiccup-free for Budgie, GNOME, MATE and Plasma here as well. Four laptops, three desktops, and four VMs with Solus editions updated. Sure gotta love this distro!

WetGeek I thought we'd be kicking the tires on a 5.15/5.16 variant for a few more months so this is great news---kinda paves the way for a new .iso I'd have to think.

Rumor has it there are FOUR new .ISO files in our future. My torrent server just can't wait!

I've heard this echoed in a couple of places - where is this coming from? I don't recall any discussion on IRC about updating the ISO.

WetGeek So full install, minimal, netinstall and server 😉

ReillyBrogan

infinitymdm there's a phab task for it. Getting the kernel to 6.0 was the main blocker for it.

[deleted] You know, a headless version wouldn't be a bad idea. It would be a good way around having dated packages bork installs like with the current issue with some Nvidia cards. That way a person could just install, update from CLI, then install the DE of their choice.

WetGeek

What DE would your full install come with?

Good luck with that. 😆

Solus Pantheon.

I've been using Elementary for a week but I'm starting to miss Solus' speed.

What are you waiting for!? Switch back asap! We have a new shiny kernel here! 😏

ReillyBrogan

@darkness @siru There's a tracking task for the FDE issues here. I'm going to create some test kernels with potential fixes shortly, but I do need additional information to make sure I get the right drivers rebuilt for you (I'll post it there).

riffer

Solarmass I know, my Keychron keyboard will finally work properly. I still have Solus on my other drive so I'll take a look next week.

Oops sorry. Back to Kernel issues.
