Installation / Re: Nutyx on Mac hardware

« Last post by ndawka on Sun Nov 19 12:55:36 2023 »

You can try a couple of solutions, as per https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/91620/efi-variables-are-not-supported-on-this-system.

First, please check, that the efivar package is installed using

Code: [Select]

sudo cards install efivar. Then:

Check that UEFI boot method is set as default.

Try

Code: [Select]

mount --bind /sys/firmware/efi/efivars /mnt/sys/firmware/efi/efivars before chrooting.

Switch over to systemd using this guide: https://nutyx.org/en/default-init-system, then enable efivars using

Code: [Select]

sudo modprobe efivarfs, after that try chrooting into the system and

Code: [Select]

grub install again.

Add efi=runtime to your kernel parameters in /etc/default/grub configuration.

Code: [Select]

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="efi=runtime quiet" (or whatever the default is on NuTyX and add "efi=runtime")
Don't forget

Code: [Select]

sudo update-grub2!

Tips and Tricks / Re: [TRICK] for alsa users only

« Last post by edulof on Wed Nov 08 02:20:10 2023 »

For those on CDE: It will appear more integrated in your workflow to run alsamixer instead of pavucontrol, even if you use apulse. The fact alsa is so simply integrated in nutyx makes it more intuitive to follow than in distros based on huge sized distros and mainstream DEs, which is the other way around.

Hello Peppe

Welcome to the NuTyX forums
To play on NuTyX, I guess the only way is to use the flatpak packages:

Code: [Select]

sudo cards install flatpak
flatpak install steam
Probably for the rest, you knows already better then me
Good luck

Thierry

Hi Thierry,

Wow, I never knew you had to deal with such hostilities. Don't people realise that you are providing these distro's and support in your own time? I'm using Nutyx with Enlightenment and it rocks! Don't let the haters get you down and keep up the great work!

Thank you we work very hard on Nutyx, we do our best, and yes we do this all in our spare time and we do run out of spare time.

Hi Thierry,

... I'm using Nutyx with Enlightenment and it rocks! Don't let the haters get you down and keep up the great work!

Thanks a lot for your message. I appreciate that some peoples are happy with NuTyX. 

About the message of pupuklok, it's part of the game. I need to accept that sometime NuTyX is not working as it should.

It's somehow the only way to be able to improve NuTyX.
I think it's nice that  people reports the problems.

We will try to fix them for the next release. Not always possible.

Best Regards,
Thierry
