Debian Multimedia :: Setting Up LVDS Display In Jessie Stable
Jan 19, 2016
I am just trying to setup my debian 8.2 stable in my Intel(R) Atom(TM) CPU N2600 @ 1.60GHz. The installation goes smooth without any issues. For this system , we are planning to use DUAL display with HDMI & LVDS.
We see that that only HDMI is working and LVDS screen is blank. However, we notice that XRANDR is is showing LVDS as connected

I have installed debian 8.8.1 stable and run updates. When I run the cat release command it shows stretch/sid. I made no changes to the apt/sources list.
What do i have to do so it only updates with the stable release I am planning to use it as a server and only want stable fixes.

I installed Jessie with the RC1. URL...A2) The network install images for testing (jessie) can be found at URL...However, unless you want to test the installer for testing the better choice is to use the stable installer to install a minimal stable system and then upgrade to testing by changing your /etc/apt/sources.list file.

After doing Debian's apt-get dist-upgrade from Wheezy/oldstable to Jessie/stable, I decided to try Kernel v4.2.0 instead of v3.16.0-4-amd64 to be even more updated. However, X doesn't work. /var/log/Xorg.0.log showed:
Code: Select allX.Org X Server 1.16.4

I update Jessie "stable" 8.2 to 8.4 and now I get 5 minute interval kernel messages:
Apr 18 06:39:52 OraHost kernel: [131985.494726] sdc: unknown partition table
Apr 18 06:45:03 OraHost kernel: [132295.755942] sdc: unknown partition table
Apr 18 06:50:03 OraHost kernel: [132595.946564] sdc: unknown partition table
Apr 18 06:55:13 OraHost kernel: [132906.139327] sdc: unknown partition table
Apr 18 07:00:23 OraHost kernel: [133216.340555] sdc: unknown partition table
I believe this has something to do with an mdadm update which was included in the release. When I configured the array, I didn't partition the disk devices, so maybe that has something to do with it. I am thinking of rebuilding the array and partitioning prior to build, but a quick fix would be referable.
And also something appears to have happened to the raid device since the update.
Prior to update, the array was /dev/md0 - now it is /dev/md/0 which is a symbolic link back to /dev/md0.
mdadm --detail --scan now reports /dev/md/0 where previously it reported /dev/md0
I created a new RAID1 array on a fresh system and immediately after the create, these messages appear at 5 minute intervals.

I've been installing Debian Stable on a IBM Thinkpad R60 with SXGA display. Running the system works for around 10-30 min, after which period of time there begin screen distortions, which last for always few seconds only. Working can be continued in the time between these distortions.
Running Ubuntu 11.04 for testing has brought up none of these problems. I have enabled "nomodeset" as a kernel parameter, but without success.

I'm having trouble figuring out how to edit the sources list to use Jessie testing.
The usual online generator i use is busted, this is how i imagine it working:

I am new to Ubuntu (Karmic with GNOME). I have a Samsung LED UEB7020, with an Asrock ION 330 BD player feeding to a Onkyo TXSR607, AV rec. The other day I downloaded NVidia v180.25, which was very useful, because it immediately solved an earlier teething problem of no sound. However immediately upon re-booting and ever since, the screen size is too big for the TV, meaning that I can not see the top, bottom, side and left of the display by about 2 inches either way. I have checked the NVidia resolution settings and they are correct for the TV, ie 1920 by 1080.
My etc/X11/ xorg.conf file reads as follows:
Section "Screen"
Identifier "Default Screen"
DefaultDepth 24
EndSection
Section "Module"
Load "glx"
EndSection
Section "Device"
Identifier "Default Device"
Driver "nvidia"
Option "NoLogo" "True"
EndSection

lxappearance won't let me change themes on Squeeze. It just doesn't do anything, neither preview, nor theme setting. Turns out this is a known bug, and allegedly fixed. Ppl are told to "upgrade" their package. However, in Squeeze it's still the old package, and it doesn't work. So I filed another new bug report, which they closed and told me to upgrade the package.
Upgrade? From Sid? What happened to fixing Testing so it can become the next stable? Not much stable if a major DE can't change themes. Not that it's a real problem, but it's
annoying. I purged lxappearance and manually installed its Sid counterpart, only to find out
the bug is still there.

I have an ASUS 1000HE laptop running Lucid 10.04 (Desktop not netbook version) which I have connected to an external display (LCD). I don't intend to use the laptop by itself anymore therefore I have configured the display properties to turn off the laptop display and use the external display as primary. However, when the PC enters 'locked mode' or the display powers down after a defined period of time (as set in the properties) when I wake the PC and the display, it turns the laptop monitor back on .... switches the laptop screen to primary display (i.e. with the panels etc displayed on it) and extends the desktop to the external display! The only thing I can then do is go back into the configuration utility and turn the laptop monitor off again and boom, everything is fine and dandy displaying on the external display again! I don't really want to have to do this every time I come back to the PC after it has been locked nor do I want to write a script (if it can be avoided) to deal with it!

We recently installed KDE on our Debian 7.7 (stable) system. However, upon logging in, the piano roll was crackly and distorted; similar, if not identical to this [URL] .... problem. However, disabling HDMI output in PulseAudio Volume Control, as recommended in the "solution" in the above link did not fix the issue, and we do not think the other solution of updating the kernel is likely to be a solution, since audio is fine in GNOME. Because of this, it seems likely that the problem is with Phonon, KDE's sound layer.
Here is some of the info about the system:
- Dual-boot Debian 7.7/Windows Vista 64-bit
- AMD sound hardware
- Only analog stereo is used; HDMI is not
- AMD CPU and (integrated) GPU
This seems to be a problem about half the time. Also, sound tends to play better when being played the second time in a row, and adjusting the volume even slightly seems to have an immediate effect on improving the sound quality.

I recently upgraded from wheezy to jessie and everything went as planned with dist-upgrade. However I just noticed that I can't play any video file. I thought about upgrading vlc, as it was already installed but it had dependency problems. So I tried to remove it
Code: Select allsudo apt-get remove --purge vlc
Then If I try to install vlc I receive this message:
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable distribution that some required packages have not yet been created or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may resolve the situation:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
vlc : Depends: vlc-nox (= 2.2.0~rc2-2) but 2.0.3-5+deb7u2+b1 is to be installed
Depends: libvlccore8 (>= 2.2.0~pre1) but it is not going to be installed
Recommends: vlc-plugin-notify (= 2.2.0~rc2-2) but it is not going to be installed
Recommends: vlc-plugin-samba (= 2.2.0~rc2-2) but it is not going to be installed
Breaks: vlc-nox (< 2.2.0~pre2-2~) but 2.0.3-5+deb7u2+b1 is to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
Now, I thought about removing vlc-data but I received this message saying that 253 packages will be removed (624Mb worth of applications). Am I uninstalling my entire system with this?
This is my sources.list

Here's the thing:
- Debian boots normally
- I get the login screen
- Once my credentials entered, I see only the grey foreground of the login screen for a couple of seconds, then a black screen with a prompt for like half a second and then I'm back to the login screen. No error message, nothing.
When booting in recovery mode and use startx, it works fine (it's my setup at the moment). From there, if I start gdm3 (systemctl start gdm.service), I get the black screen with a prompt and I can do nothing, I have to shut down directly by pressing the button.I tried to add Debian-gdm user to the video group (even if I don't use nVidia drivers), to replace gdm by lightdm and even to remove any display manager but the issue is not solved.Here are some outputs:
Code: Select all# dpkg-reconfigure gdm3
Job for gdm.service failed. See 'systemctl status gdm.service' and 'journalctl -xn' for details.
invoke-rc.d: initscript gdm3, action "reload" failed
Code: Select all# journalctl -xn
-- Logs begin at Tue 2015-12-29 19:16:26 CET, end at Tue 2015-12-29 20:20:55 CET
[code]....
Since removing gdm didn't change anything, I assume it doesn't have anything to do with it but still.

Despite having the Gnome Power Manager set to put the display to seep after 30 minutes, it always happens after 5 minutes. The display will go blank but still lit, and then it powers off after the 30 minutes. Surely, if I set it to 30 minutes, the display should power off then, and not just blank after 5? I have no screensaver packages installed so it's nothing to do with that.

I'm trying out a Jessie install and have noticed VNC doesn't work as well as it used to. I often install a desktop environment on a headless machine, disable *dm, and use vnc4server to create a desktop session if I want to use a GUI. When I try to do the same on Jessie, I run into problems.
Using Gnome, all I get is the generic "Oops something went wrong" error. Looking at .xsession-errors, there are some errors that hint at the problem.
Code: Select allXsession: X session started for ryan at Mon Dec 29 06:07:30 CST 2014
X Error of failed request: BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation)
Major opcode of failed request: 109 (X_ChangeHosts)
Value in failed request: 0x5
Serial number of failed request: 6
Current serial number in output stream: 8

The same thing seems to happen with Cinnamon. Since I doubt a fix for the above issue will make it into Jessie, I tried XFCE. However, that doesn't work correctly either. When running XFCE via VNC something is misreporting the version of xrandr as 1.1 instead of 1.4. Since xfsettingsd appears to want version 1.2+, many things are broken.
This post on the Ubuntu forums suggests the issue might be fixed in xfsettingsd version 4.11: [URL] .....
Is there a better way of getting a remote desktop in Jessie that I'm overlooking?

I am using Jessie. 64 bits. I have been using Sound Converter in other distros (LMDE, Ubuntu, etc) in the past.Jessie has Sound Converter 2.1.3. I think I have installed the needed codecs. When I try to convert from mp4 to mp3, the program gets stuck, and nothing happens. Other formats can be converted.
When I use SoundKonverter (also in Jessie, version 2.1.1) it works with no problem, converting from mp4 to mp3. Nevertheless I would prefer to use Sound Converter.

A few weeks ago I have installed Debian Jessie on KDE Desktop Version. I have a problem with the Display Manager Kdm, if i log out session the monitor turns off (DVI No Signal), the only option that I have it's forced shutdown or reboot via power button. I try another DM lightdm and this works fine. But i liked to know why log out session crash on Kdm.
Adding : TerminateServer=true at the end of /etc/kde4/kdm/kdmrc (Section :[X-:*-Core], solve the issue.

I recently decided to buy a new pc and install only one operating system: Debian.
The PC has an Intel Core 2 Duo, 4GB of RAM and installed Linux 3.16.0-4-amd64 with desktop KDE SC 4.14.2
I can use it for a while, but it always ends with the same problem: All the windows turn black, except the edge.
Furthermore, in the application launcher menu, the edge only appears, like when I make right click on the desktop.
They appear completely transparent. Only be solved by restarting the PC.

I'm trying to install KDEConnect on my 64 bit Debian system. It's failing because of dependencies.
Tried installing the first dependency, sshfs. It said it cannot find the 64 bit package. So, I tried the 32 bit. That one depends on fuse. Tried to install fuse 32 bit. hat depends on sed. Tried installing 32 bit sed, but the package manager said it's risky to replace 64 bit sed with the 32 bit variant.
I stopped here thinking that I'm risking some stability and the road to the finish line is not visible till the end, meaning I might lose hours trying to do something that fails at the last step. This happened to me few times in the past (with other software) and I really don't want to repeat the incident. I need a stable system and I need my time.
The question is: how to get installed kdeconnect package on Jessie 64 bit ...

I upgraded my system from Wheezy to Jessie and now the audio is tinny. It sounds like a lot of the bass is being chopped off. This happens in YouTube's HTML5 video player, VLC and whatever player it is that Thunar launches for avi files.I'm using Xfce as my desktop, if that matters.I looked around for an equalizer app for pulseaudio but was surprised to find that the there isn't one, or at least not one which is still maintained.
