ok, thanks, I won't be able to adjust this for a few days, I'm busy, but I think the changes won't be too major, but it will take time.
I'll start at the kernel stuff though to get that working, maybe thursday or friday, we'll see. Personally I really hate spending my time tracking this kind of garbage, but smxi still seems popular with sidux users, so I guess I'll keep up the basic levels of support. My problem is I can't bring myself to actually type that ridiculous name... let's see, I need an abbreviation.... ah ok, that will work, I'll call it ats. All lower case, lol... Back to top |
If I can get some more information:
when you run a dist-upgrade in sidux, after changing sources, does it replace the old /etc/sidux-version file with a new aptosid file, and if so what is that file name, and what are its contents. Back to top |
Thank you for your continued support.
I don't know if it's just my computer, but my sidux-version file still stayed the same. I do not have an aptosid-version file. Perhaps someone else can confirm? Back to top |
Same here, supposedly some kind of migration should have happened when dist-upgrading, debconf asking you if you want to switch to aptosid but in my case nothing happened.
A dist-upgrade pulled in some aptosid packages but nothing in apt/sources.list.d changed so I really don't know what to do next ... Back to top |

Thanks, but I read that, plus the 7-page thread about it, did all of it and debconf stays as quiet as most of the time. No question whatsoever or change to my apt sources.

I found this entry in the german aptosid-forum:
:: Code :: deb http://debian.tu-bs.de/project/aptosid/debian/ sid main fix.mainI've put it in a aptosid.list-file under /etc/apt/sources.list.d and do an apt-get update and apt-get dist-upgrade. The dist-upgrade offers me gfxboot-theme-aptosid and some more aptosid-packages. Don't know if there are other mirrors but this seem to work. The aptosid-archive-keyring can be installed throu the old sidux.list Hope that help. [edit]link repaired[/edit] Back to top |

:: techAdmin wrote :: I am amazed that those guys were unable to think of a good name, and went with something so absurdly corny that it seems to seal their decision to be a geek only distro. More power to them I guess, just what the world needs, another distro aimed at a few hundred people out there....To be fair, the name seems to be a multiligual pun. [link] Back to top |
