Out of X and as root I get something like the following when running sgfxi:

:: Code ::
the options --inet6-only and --inet4-only are together not allowed


:: Code ::
Updating sgfxi now using the default server
ERROR: (198) The url/file: sgfxi
failed to download - wget error.
Exiting script now.



wget normally works in my system, so I dont know if this is an error caused by sgfxi.

There is no /var/log/sgfxi.log -file only a /var/log/smxi.log

smxi is working without errors.

Yes , I also think the error is in wget. Strange is , I never have problems using wget, only with sgfxi, and there is no /var/log/sgfxi.log

Orderd a nvidia card , when the card is there I will try to install the driver over smxi, hope this works.

Thank you for your great work, I often used it and until now it allways was perfect!

It's unlikely to be a sgfxi error.

It could be, but it's more likely that something sgfxi does with wget is triggering the error.

smxi runs sgfxi internally, but when it starts sgfxi, it updates it using a different logic.

So if smxi starts sgfxi, and if sgfxi does not start and exits with wget error, and if no logs, that means that wget is failing for some reason on the very first test sgfxi runs to update itself if required, to get the remote version file. sgfxi does not run this test if it's started by smxi, since smxi will already have updated sgfxi before starting it.

However, smxi runs the same basic update tests when it starts, so there should be little difference between the two.

no log files for sgfxi, which would be /var/log/sgfxi/... means it has failed before logging begins. Which is quite early, by the way, in the script execution.

I've over the years seen various networking errors causing such issues, sometime in the router, sometimes the isp, but the specific ipv4/ivp6 commands are not used anywhere in smxi/sgfxi, so if you see those errors, that's the cause probably, but it's not sgfxi, or shouldn't be. If you find different let me know exactly what it is and I'll fix it.

For what it's worth, I used sgfxi a few days ago on a system, everything was fine.

Also just tested it now re starting it, no problems.
