Debian Configuration :: How To Stop Mode Switching At Boot Under Jessie
Mar 19, 2016
I upgraded a wheezy box in qemu to jessie (without systemd!) and now I didn't get an output from the console to a hostterminal using curses.System and grub starts with terminal output, but after around 6 to 8 lines of output the terminal gets black. As far as I found out it seems that the init process switches to graphical output. I tried out all found kernel options from nomodeset up to nofb,Are their other options to stop switching to framebuffer and graphical mode.

I am the author of an internet radio for the Raspberry PI originally running on Debian Wheezy. The radio (radiod) service is started and stopped using the usual service commands:
service radiod start|stop|status
Since upgrading to Debian Jessie the service status and stop routines in my radio daemon are no longer called.
For example:
# service radiod status
● radiod.service - LSB: Raspberry PI Radio Daemon
Loaded: loaded (/etc/init.d/radiod)
Active: active (running) since Thu 2016-03-31 20:17:07 CEST; 15h ago
Process: 380 ExecStart=/etc/init.d/radiod start (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS)
CGroup: /system.slice/radiod.service
└─603 python /usr/share/radio/ada_radio.py start
If I call my program (which runs as a daemon) I see the status message from my program
# ./radiod.py status
radiod running pid 603
I have established that service stop never calls my program routines to shutdown the radiod daemon when the system is rebooted (I see that from my log files).
The reboot hangs for about 5 minutes whilst stopping the radiod service (because stop never calls my stop routines).
Below is my radiod script, which is fairly conventional, and which has been working all the time until I ported to Debian Jessie.
/etc/init.d/radiod
#!/bin/sh
#
### BEGIN INIT INFO
# Provides: radiod
# Should-Start:
# Should-Stop:

When i'm tried google there is lots of bootlogd related document there. [URL] .... Yes there is documentation. But I'm only need "enable boot logging","reading boot log". Bootlogd not worked on jessie/stretch.

I've recently noted that the boot process in my Jessie installation is occasionally taking longer than usual, not dramatically as in "really hanging", but still noticeably slower, during which some messages are printed along the lines of
Code: Select alla starting job is running (2 of 5) and also after that, once lightdm (I'm using the MATE desktop) comes up the screen gets painted slower as well.
Unfortunately, once the system is up and running there's no longer trace in the logs (either traditional syslogs or journalctl) of such messages, however what comes to mind is that I've just recently enabled persistent logging in systemd: could this be the reason of such (occasional) slower boot process?
Other than that, what else could cause such behaviour? What should I eventually check to ensure things are OK?

Recently tried to make RAID1 on MBR partitions scheme on Debian Jessie - debian-8.1.0-amd64-DVD-1. The issue - I have unable to boot from second drive after grub-install /dev/sdb by any ways. RAID1 itself for / swap and home is fully functional. Decided to try the same thing on GPT, same story. How to boot from second drive on most recent Debian Branches?

I've recently switched from Wheezy to Jessie and can't get sound to work.
It worked properly in Wheezy with the same hardware configuration.
I've searched web for possible solutions but couldn't have found the symptoms
similar to mine, i.e. no hw listed by aplay -l:
Code: Select all#aplay -l
**** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices ****
Remaining info:
Code: Select all#lspci | grep Audio

I just bought an Asus TS mini server. It has an Atom CPU (N280), and an Intel 945 chipset.
I installed Ubuntu Server Edition 10.04, that went smooth.
But on first boot, I see it hanging just after it mounts the swap. Now I don't think it has anything to do with that, the problem seems to me that at that point, it also switches the video mode. I guess that's where the problem is caused. It just freezes, no kernel panic, no reaction to the keyboard.
The system is dual boot, and the other OS is Windows Home Server. I put an ext fs driver there, and tried to read the logs, but don't get a clue from there. In particular, syslog doesn't even exist. Also no X log.

I have a strange problem in my new debian 8.3 LXDE install. Every time I boot my laptop it goes in to sleep mode automatically after a min. It is a default install and I have not configured any power management options. How do I find out the reason for the automatic sleep and how can I rectify it?

I upgraded from wheezy to jessie, but now I just boot to a console. I've gone through and made sure all packages are up to their latest versions, and I've made sure gnome, xorg, and xserver-xorg are reinstalled (during the upgrade they got uninstalled..).
Here's what happens when I run startx manually:
Code: Select allcharlie@asimov:~$ startx
X.Org X Server 1.16.4
Release Date: 2014-12-20
X Protocol Version 11, Revision 0
Build Operating System: Linux 3.16.0-4-amd64 x86_64 Debian
[Code] ...
Note also that this whole time, gdm3 has been running:
Code: Select allcharlie@asimov:~$ ps ax | grep gdm3
1058 ? Sl 0:00 /usr/sbin/gdm3
3993 tty2 S+ 0:00 grep gdm3
charlie@asimov:~$ sudo service gdm3 status
[Code] .....
I'm not sure why it prints that it's starting gdm3, but it does that every time I run `sudo service gdm3 status'.
Here's a copy of my /var/log/Xorg.0.log.

So I managed to install Debian Jessie on a MSI G70 2PE Apache Pro that came with Windows 8.
First I partitioned some space on the laptop. Then I put on the net install cd for Debian and installed it on UEFI mode. It installed correctly.
Now I'm on Grub and when Debian tries to boot it gets stuck on "Loading initial ramdisk". The cursor under it doesn't even blink. The only way to get out of there is by Ctrl-Alt-Delete. Secure Boot is turned off. Fast boot is also off. If I try to boot on recovery mode gets stuck all the same.
The options on my grub are
Debian GNU/Linux
Advanced options for Debian GNU/Linux
Windows Boot Manager (UEFI on /dev/sda2)
System Setup.
If I choose the Windows option, Windows boots, no problem.
If I choose the edit option for the Debian entry this is what it shows
Code: Select allload_video
insmod gzio
insmod part_gpt
insmod ext2
set root='hd0,gpt6'
if [ x$feature_platform_search_hint = xy ]; then
[Code] ....
What is happening and what should I try to make this work? Could it be a graphics card issue since this computer has a Nvidia Gpu?

Im using xfce desktop environment in debian. I find that I can not see the desktop when using Ctrl+Alt+Tab to switch window focus. I modified /usr/share/xfce-mcs-plugins/shortcuts/defaults.xml and added Ctrl+Alt+Tab shortcut to trigger a terminal command "wmctrl -k on", then i could see the desktop, but failed to switch window focus. Also, I failed to solve this problem by editing /usr/share/themes/Default/xfwm4/keythemerc Could anybody tell me a solution that you should be able to see the desktop when switching window focus, just like in win7?

I am running Jessie 8.2, upgraded from Wheezy about a week ago.
KDE Desktop, static IP
NetworkManager.conf shows:
[main]
plugins=ifupdown,keyfile
[ifupdown]
managed=true
dns=none
The dns=none is to keep NetworkManager from overwriting /etc/resolv.conf (which shows):
nameserver aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd
nameserver aaa.eee.fff.ggg
nameserver aaa.hhh.iii.jjj
search mydomain.com
It seems like ifconfig used to show which DNS servers were being addressed, but something has changed, I need to know whether I am referencing what I think I am... I have search this forum, googled, and come up empty... did the metrics go away with 8.2? Was I dreaming at 7.5?

I installed Debian Jessie on my Hummingbaord. I use it with apache, owncloud and minidlna but after some days i rebooted the system and then i can't log in with SSH anymore.
The message I get:

Using keyboard-interactive authentication.

And this again and again, although I enter the right password. If I login directly on the Hummingboard all works normally...

I'm new to the forum and actually to Debian as well. Have been running Ubuntu for the past few years. Just setup a small Dell laptop to use as a Squeezebox and Print server. It's been up 6 days without a hitch as far as serving music to the squeezebox and printing. The problem is that it loses it's static IP, so as long as I look it up and change the radio Squeezebox and printer definitions around on the clients everything keeps working.
Does anyone have any ideas?If the connection drops for some reason and the system has to re-initialize the connection, shouldn't it use the /etc/network/interfaces file and get back to the static IP that it is configured for?If anyone has any ideas of why this could be happening or have a solution, I would really appreciate the help.

I have a relative fresh install of jessie in which I face a high cpu usage of java (top shows about 165% CPU and 12% MEM). The problem occurs right after booting the computer. These values stay constantly high for days if I leave the box running. This happens even if the computer is just sitting there without doing anything.
I have to kill java to go back to normal. So, when I do a
Code: Select allkillall -KILL java
the problem goes away. After that it doesn't reappear and I can use all apps installed without a problem.
Currently I am based on openjdk
Code: Select allupdate-alternatives --display java
java - auto mode
link currently points to /usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-amd64/jre/bin/java
/usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-amd64/jre/bin/java - priority 1071
slave java.1.gz: /usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-amd64/jre/man/man1/java.1.gz
Current 'best' version is '/usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-amd64/jre/bin/java'.
But I have also tried the SUN version with the same result.
Where to look to find more information on what exactly java app is using so much resources and how I can solve it? I guess I could just put somewhere in rc.d a kill java command and forget about it but I would really like to find out whats going on...

Configuring gpsd with Wheezy was a breeze. Just had to run "sudo dpkg-reconfigure gpsd", answer a few questions, and it worked like a charm. With Debian Jessie the following happens:
tsi@sxf-tsi:~$ sudo dpkg-reconfigure gpsd
Warning: Stopping gpsd.service, but it can still be activated by:
gpsd.socket
Creating/updating gpsd user account...
tsi@sxf-tsi:~$
How does one bring up the gpsd configuration dialog with Jessie?

I've after latest jessie update a problem with service samba restart. If I use "service samba restart", there is a timeout (after long time) and error.
Output of "systemctl status samba.service":
Code:
Select all● samba.service - LSB: ensure Samba daemons are started (nmbd and smbd)
Loaded: loaded (/etc/init.d/samba)
Active: failed (Result: timeout) since Mo 2014-10-20 02:16:57 CEST; 7s ago

Okt 20 02:16:57 server systemd[1]: Failed to start LSB: ensure Samba daemons are started (nmbd and smbd).

Whats going wrong. "service samba restart" should bring no error message if the service is not running previously.

I am having trouble using touch pad in jessie. My touch pad was ok when it's in wheezy but after i updated to jessie, i can't really get used to it.
I don't know whether i setting it up wrongly, sometimes, my touchpad will keep dragging, without releasing. And if I click the bottom right of the touch pad, it's not right click; instead i have to use two fingers.
etc. So how can i change to back to a more traditional usage? Also, do jessie have a setting like ubuntu saying disable touch pad while typing?

After installing Jessie, apt-get gives me a huge list of packages with the suggestion to autoremove them. Now, I've tried auto-remove once and was left with a naked Gnome, so I was wondering if there's another way to find out which packages I should keep and which I can safely remove. Is it safe to delete packages that cannot be found using the search function for the stable release? I checked them one by one here URL....How about linux images that won't appear in the above search?
linux-image-3.14-0.bpo.1-amd64
linux-image-3.14-0.bpo.2-amd64
linux-image-3.16-0.bpo.2-amd64
linux-image-3.16-0.bpo.3-amd64
linux-image-3.2.0-4-amd64
How about results shown by deborphan?

Upgraded webserver to Jessie as an upgrade to Wheezy produced errors, and before reboot everything was up and running, but as all upgrade docs and info I read, I rebooted the server. However it never came back. I have the original backup files before I did the Wheezy upgrade. I also have access by Rescue to the server.Made a back up of critical files and have a 24GB tar file and I can connect by SFTP.
how to check the Debian files... Grub etc.. I would prefer to find the issue than start again.I am not able to sudo from Putty. I cannot run apt-get update. I did go to chroot, but then I get unable to resolve host errors and Could not open lock file because Permission denied errors and asking if I am root.There is information by googling for start up issues, but as I am working remotely with a Rescue set up, a lot of the commands I see and have tied do not work.

A few days ago I upgraded from debian 7 to 8. First I update, upgrade and dist upgrade - change source list and again update, upgrade and dist upgrade.When inserting a USB disk on key, it works okay. When plugging my WD "My passport" backup USB disk it does not work. The automatic mount works, but the disk can be accessed.I tried to do it manually in a format that worked on debian 7..Manual mount fails too.
umount My passport
fdisk -l (to see device name)
mount -t vfat -o rw /dev/sdb1 /media/kuku/usb_mp4

DE: lxde
version: Jessie
using xorg file: no
After changing my video cards from gigabyte HD5450 and saphire X550 to two saphire r7 240s one of my debian installs no longer supports rotating the monitors either with 'Monitor Settings' or xrandr. The only difference between these 2 Jessie installs is that one was upgraded and the other one was fresh. The problem is with the upgraded one. On the fresh installed debian I just put the ati proprietary driver so I won't do further testing on it but xrandr was working fine on it before that.
I tried going over the ATIHowTo [URL] .... and everything looks good. Tried purging the non free firmware and reinstalling. I verified the version numbers of libxrandr2 and kernel of both installs. It is either some scrap left over from wheezy or a configuration file I am not aware of.
So what actually happens is xrandr does not say anything, blanks out all windows on the screen with only their background color and title bar showing, changes the lxpanel to its background pattern except for 2 blanked out boxes almost to the right of the screen( I have 10 tray icons there before it blanks), activates the screen I wanted to rotate with the proper rotation. On my main screen I can't click on anything. On the rotated screen I can right click and I get my openbox right click menu like I do on my main monitor before the command but when I try to run something nothing happens. The only way I can get out of this situation is to go to ctrl-alt-f1, log in as root and type 'service lightdm restart'.
Both of these monitors are connected to the primary video card, an ati r7 240 saphire. The main one is on vga and the other one is on DVI. I also have another monitor connected to HDMI but it's not being used. I have yet another monitor connected to the VGA of the secondary GPU I don't think it's a problem is it? I tried not using 'xrandr --setprovideroutputsource 1 0' and it still did the same thing.
I tried just launching openbox with no LXDE and it did the same thing.
Also another strange thing is when I stop the lightdm service and try to 'startx' or 'xinit' my screens go blank; numlock, control-alt-delete and control-alt-f1 do nothing and the only thing I can do is an emergency REISUB. I didn't configure this install to use startx or xinit yet but should it really lock up my system?
On the affected system my script looks like this (I already did this step by step and the 'rotate left' line is causing the problem):
Code: Select allxrandr --setprovideroutputsource 1 0
xrandr --output VGA-0 --primary --mode 1680x1050 --pos 0x0 --rotate normal
--output DVI-0 --mode 1680x1050 --pos 0x1050 --rotate left
--output HDMI-0 --off
--output VGA-1-1 --off
lxpanelctl restart

I built a kernel-module for a new usb wifi-card. This worked well and resulted in a 8821au.ko-file. But now I'm trying to load this kernel module since half an hour and it doesn't work. I copied the ko-file into /lib/modules/3.16.0-4-amd64/kernel/drivers/edimax. If I just type
Code: Select allsudo modprobe 8821au
I get a
Code: Select allmodprobe: FATAL: Module 8821au not found..
But if I enter the full path inside the /lib/modules/3.16.0-4-amd64-folder:
Code: Select allsudo modprobe -v ./kernel/drivers/edimax/8821au.ko
it seems to work:
Code: Select allbuiltin ./kernel/drivers/edimax/8821au.ko.
But lsmod doesn't show me the module after that.
I also added
Code: Select all./kernel/drivers/edimax/8821au.ko
to /etc/modules but this also doesn't seem to work. When booting I get an error-message, but it's too fast to read it and I can't find the right log-file, where the booting-part with the "[ OK ]"-messages is reported.
So my driver is ready, the onliest thing which I can't get working is loading it as a kernel-module.

After I rebooted my system I found there was not any password needed for a normal user or the root. But if I change to the emergency mode, a root password is needed.
