[ARM Stable Update] 2023-10-01 - Kernels, Systemd, KDE, Firefox, Thunderbird, LibreOffice

Thanks for your help. Please let me know the results.

I just did a quick test by renaming “libre2.so.10” and “libre2.so.10.0.0” to a different name. Chromium-chromium-117.0.5938.132 still launch with not issue. So don’t think your Chromium issue is related to “libre2.so.10”.

ODROID C2

I built an odroid c2 image the 2023.07.09, it works, up to date this Sunday.

Unfortunately, the odroid c2 image I built today don’t boot, something go wrong with the ethernet, on screen the last message are :

...
DHCP client bound to address 192.168.1.40 (2008ms)
*** ERROR 'serverip' not set
Cannot autolod with TFTPGET
=>

Yes, I agree. In fact I deleted those files and Chromium launches, but with different errors, as I noted earlier.

Hi @spikerguy, @nl.smart and Everybody reading those lines,

I can confirm this latest [ARM Stable Update] 2023-10-01 release boot well on M.2 Sata SSD (no need to use the armbian dtbs to make it boot and I hope it will remain like this!).

I use spiboot-20230328.img which is the latest public release I know but I haven’t emmc module to test with it.

Can’t open (/proc/kcore).

[eth0] PXE autoconfiguration failed

Are those messages stop the ODROID-M1 to boot?
Which Petitboot version is installed?

As I mention in [ARM Stable Update] 2023-09-28 release :

  1. docker pull [bash-completion.2.11-3] doesn’t auto-complete anymore or give me choices when I hit Tab ( I think it can be a bash-completion regression, maybe it come from docker or other thing?
  2. systemctl start nut-server.service isn’t suggested anymore with bash-completion.2.11-3
    Only systemctl start nut-driver-enumerator. is

May Someone please help on this?

Wish You well

Hi,

Thanks for your feedback, I confirm, same issue with the image I built for the odroid m1 the 2 October.

I up date the arm profile with sudo getarmprofiles -f

I flashed an odroid m1 image built the 12 March 2023 ! it works and then I up date this image flashed on an emmc module, no issue ! The m1 is up to date and running well.

I can provide the working image built the 12 march 2023 and more info with the working m1.

post scriptum : no images built after this stable up date are working with the odroid c2, c4, n2 and m1. But all devices are working and are up to date with this last stable up date, I can provide more info to solve those issue.

Hi,

Alacritty: foreground colors doesn’t work anymore: foreground colors are always black.

background colors OK.

echo -e "\e[0;30mBlack\e[m"
echo -e "\e[0;31mRed\e[m"
echo -e "\e[0;32mGreen\e[m"
echo -e "\e[0;33mYellow\e[m"
echo -e "\e[0;34mBlue\e[m"
echo -e "\e[0;35mMagenta\e[m"
echo -e "\e[0;36mCyan\e[m"
echo -e "\e[0;37mWhite\e[m"

All of this print characters in black.

echo -e "\e[0;41mRed background\e[m"
echo -e "\e[0;42mGreen background\e[m"
echo -e "\e[0;43mYellow background\e[m"

This print background in right colors.

configuration file .config/alacritty/alacritty.yml does not solve the problem.

Since I seem to be having the same issue the only other idea I have outside of chromium is maybe mesa. I see ARCH-ARM is in the progress of upgrading it today I will wait for it to be done and it hits our unstable repo and test it.

Any progess on this? I would really like to have chromium working.

Nope. This site still does weird things with chromium.

Firefox couldn’t play movie with decorde errors.

What movie. What arm device.

rpi4 and youtube and erotic movie :stuck_out_tongue:
[Child 22037, MediaDecoderStateMachine #1] WARNING: Decoder=ffff9cb1fb00 Decode error: NS_ERROR_DOM_MEDIA_FATAL_ERR (0x806e0005): file /build/firefox/src/firefox-118.0.1/dom/media/MediaDecoderStateMachineBase.cpp:166

I o not have an issue with firefox/youtube on my pi400. Is it all movies on youtube or just that one. Do you have an youtube address. Firefox 118.0.2 is in the unstable branch. I have seen some bug reports with that error and wayland.

Is the movie DRM-protected?

I don’t know.
I can play youtube now.already no problem.
xvideos seek bar still doesn’t work.

Hi,

@spikerguy
I found some up date on the Manjaro ARM Github
Are the c2, c4, n2 and m1 devices working with the last build images ?

How to build your own Manjaro ARM images

Not tested today, I hope as soon as possible to build one for each devices and did some test

I should restart firefox . then it will be good.

Hi, @philm

I hope you can work again on Apple M series :

Also Asahi packages need upgrade :

Manjaro is great OS on this hardware.
And if you have possibility to upgrade glibc to 2.36 or above :
For add support with winedevine : GitHub - AsahiLinux/widevine-installer: Widevine CDM installer for aarch64 systems
Probably that can help other ARM board after glib upgrade.
And audio is coming very soon with :
GitHub - AsahiLinux/asahi-audio: Userspace audio for Asahi Linux
GitHub - AsahiLinux/speakersafetyd: Rust speaker safety daemon for Asahi Linux

Best Regards

Inxi is up to date on stable branch, nice :slight_smile:

While working to get the pi5 going I built the Pi OS mesa with their patches and this issue here seems to be fixed and with chromium 119.0.6045.59-1.

To test on your pi4; download and unpack the mesa-rpios tarball then while in the mesa-pios directory install the needed files and reboot:

sudo pacman -U mesa-23.2.1-1-aarch64.pkg.tar.zst vulkan-broadcom-23.2.1-1-aarch64.pkg.tar.zst vulkan-mesa-layers-23.2.1-1-aarch64.pkg.tar.zst vulkan-swrast-23.2.1-1-aarch64.pkg.tar.zst
