I wonder if there could be a dkms cleanup tool, or maybe a step during installation that could identify un-needed dkms packages and offer to uninstall them for those who don't need them? Have it default to leaving them installed, and also explain the ramifications of removing them (positives -- less...

we ship some drivers that are dkms packages. broadcom and realtek drivers. if you don't need them, remove them. the dkms rebuilds should only be happening on kernel updates, unless you have some incomplete update that previously occurred and some dkms package failed to build or install fully. apt/d...

...I created a new depends list by joining our existing depends with what's in the vanilla version and then checked to see what this new package list would bring down on a firefox install in a pristine MX23 VM and every one of them was already installed... except for libgcc1 . It only exists in bus...

I added the mozilla apt repository for firefox $ apt-cache policy firefox firefox: Installed: 122.0~mozillabinaries-1mx23+1 Candidate: 122.0~mozillabinaries-1mx23+1 Version table: *** 122.0~mozillabinaries-1mx23+1 500 500 http://mxrepo.com/mx/repo bookworm/main amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/statu...

Kester , There's some similarity with the problem you're having with your Logitech mouse and what I reported here: https://forum.mxlinux.org/viewtopic.php?t=78941, though in my case it involved both keyboard and mouse. So you might try installing one of the Liquorix kernels with MX Package Installer.

Is that 6.6-16 Liquorix kernel behaving? Yes the keyboard and mouse are working with the 6.6-16 Liquorix kernel (using it right now). My 6.6-16 Liquorix kernel isn't one that you built, it was installed directly from the Liquorix repo. But going from what I remember, the keyboard and mouse hasn't b...

I have MX-23.1-ahs installed. With some kernels, the 6.5.0-1mx-ahs-amd64 kernel for example (and some others), the Logitech wireless keyboard & mouse that I use is non-responsive. I can't login or change terminals (i.e. Ctrl+Alt+Fn). I can issue the REISUB sequence to shutdown/reset. The keyboar...

There's a dmesg -W option that shows just the most recent events

It means that the driver won't build with our current compiler. Unfortunately this is a dead end. I don't think the driver (ftdi_sio kernel module) even needs to be built, it's already in the kernel. The dmesg snippets Jakob77 posted a couple posts back shows it being detected and attached to ttyUS...

I found some scripts here: https://info.kmtronic.com/kmtronic-usb-one-relay-linux-test-script.html Not sure if you need the OpenSuse or Ubuntu ones, I downloaded both and didn't see much difference between them (I didn't look that closely at them though). One comment said something about needing to ...
