Techrights-sec(raspberry pi os)May 28 13:52
schestowitz-TRI wonder how you got a kernel so new and why my kernel became so broken after a rebootMay 28 13:53
schestowitz-TRwith error on reboot and then no wifiMay 28 13:53
schestowitz-TRif there a package that gets me on a more suitable kernel?May 28 13:53
schestowitz-TRat the moment cost of the available system updates are CUPS packagesMay 28 13:55

schestowitz-TR# uname -srMay 28 14:02
schestowitz-TRgives me 5.10.somethingMay 28 14:02
schestowitz-TRI think all these issue might boil down to the kernelMay 28 14:02
schestowitz-TRI didn't check how the raspi kernel selector workedMay 28 14:02
schestowitz-TRfor fear I'd boot into something that locks me out by virtue of not even boostrappingMay 28 14:02
schestowitz-TRis it possible that when it boots is attempts to load the latest kernel, then fails, then loads some rather old one instead  May 28 14:08
schestowitz-TRas a fallback?May 28 14:08
schestowitz-TRit's booting too fast for me to read everythingMay 28 14:08
Techrights-secdid you change /boot/config.txtMay 28 14:08
schestowitz-TRi did not change it, I saw it and did not notice options of relevance there, but I will check again nowMay 28 14:09
schestowitz-TRI am reading a bunch of forum threads about people with kernel issues after updatesMay 28 14:25
schestowitz-TRand various things not working after thatMay 28 14:25
schestowitz-TRmy hunch is that tc and wlan0 and a bunch of smaller things are May 28 14:25
schestowitz-TRimpacted by the kernel changesMay 28 14:25
schestowitz-TRI used dpkg to check versions of thingsMay 28 14:25
schestowitz-TRand the CLI raspi config tool (ncurses)May 28 14:25
schestowitz-TRI don't want to risk breaking the system completelyMay 28 14:25
schestowitz-TRmaybe I should just turn ipfs on and off until the next kernel update is availableMay 28 14:25
schestowitz-TRand then hope it'' fix thingsMay 28 14:25
schestowitz-TRI don't want to install anything experimentalMay 28 14:25
schestowitz-TRas I said, the usb (which I plugged into the black port, so it was slow)May 28 14:25
schestowitz-TRstill has wifi working and I assume tc as wellMay 28 14:25
schestowitz-TRbut it's about a month out of data and after system update, which is neeedMay 28 14:25
schestowitz-TRfor security reasons, it would likely inherit those very same problemsMay 28 14:25
*psydroid2 (~psydroid@memzbmehf99re.irc) has joined #boycottnovellMay 28 14:51
schestowitz-TRRwading on this further, namewly how to revert back tom previously-used kernel, what I find are mostlyMay 28 14:52
schestowitz-TRhacks and third-party shit that puts at risk the booting sequence and integrity of the systemMay 28 14:52
schestowitz-TRgiven the nature of this system (file system, server etc.) I don't wish to take this riskMay 28 14:52
schestowitz-TRmaybe treat the nwew script you make as "coming soon" and assume the system is temporarily May 28 14:52
schestowitz-TRincapacitated until next time kernel becomes available? In the mean time I will not back whole system, just May 28 14:52
schestowitz-TR/home, as it doesn't have the binaries anywayMay 28 14:52
