Hey, not sure when this happened but the GTK3 print dialogue no longer shows my printer. In my case, I'm using zathura. Qt applications like okular work as expected.

Some googling had me stumbling on some Arch Linux Forums where they recommended installing a package (roughly) called "gtk3-print-backend."

I couldn't find any similar packages, nor could I see the contents of the package since the site was down.

Does anyone know what to do? Thanks.

I can use my keyboard in live usb but i can't use it on the actual login screen. I used chatgpt to do something but that don't work too. Please help!

I've always used a nerd font and never had any problems. All symbols and Unicode characters had always been displayed correctly.
From the last reboot this has changed: quite a lot of the symbols I previously used now display as a blank character.
The font is still present on the system. it is still being used by the terminal emulator (xfce4-terminal).
I've tried messing around with the font cache but without any result. I've checked the locale and it is still set to the correct one.

The only thing I can think about that maybe caused this is the fact that I deleted some unused dependencies trough xbps-remove -o and xbps-remove -O.

Here's a screenshot from my nvim startup menu that shows how some characters are now missing:

Also, if this could be useful, the symbols on the bottom left have straight up changed, as if the font is a different one. Still, looking at the text I can say the font is not changed as I can recognize the style of the characters.

I tried following a guide got to the part where I start downloading packages. I receive “Transient resolver failure”. If it’s something simple and I’m an idiot I apologize. I’m super new to this and it’s my first time with Linux.

So when I use Wayland, it crashes my whole computer and I can't do anything. If it launches using X11, it can't start Display server. How to solve it?

Solved I figured it out

Hi! I've been distro hopping for a while, and right now, I am on Linux Mint because school has started back and I needed a simple distribution for everyday schoolwork. I was looking for an independent Linux distribution that is not a fork from others. I came across Void Linux on distrowatch.com and decided before I give it a try, I would like to see if there are benefits to installing it instead of a different distribution. Why you choose Void Linux, and what is your favorite part?

My past distros have been Fedora, CachyOS, OpenSUSE, AerynOS, and a failed Arch attempt :(

so I want to remove the xfce terminal when i run this command

sudo xbps-remove xfce4-terminal

it shows this:

xfce4-terminal-1.2.0_1 in transaction breaks installed pkg \xfce4-4.20_2'`

ERROR: Transaction aborted due to unresolved dependencies.

how can I just remove the terminal not whole xfce
i want a safe way that would not break my system

sorry for the typo in title

Hello im running 3ds Linux which is a void based release and have some questions for sane useage. The o3ds has only 128mb of ram available and im looking for tips/packages to work within this mem limit. Attached is a preview showing my in progress driver for the 3ds PICA gpu.

Well, I was updating my void, until it cracks then I decide to physically renounce it (I know it's not a good practice but I wasn't even able to use the keyboard), when I start the pc again, apparently OpenSSL corrupts, I have no idea what it does, whoever can help me I would be very grateful (note: I'm using void glibc)

So I did the base install, (with void-installer) and then wanted to install a window manager (specifically herbstluftwm), but after installing it, I didn’t achieve a graphical interface.

I do understand wm on a basic level, but I never did the installation starting with a basic terminal install, so I‘m guessing I need to install a package, but I have no idea which one…
I already installed xorg as I thought maybe it’s necessary, but to no avail.
When I type herbstluftwm it gives me the error: XOrgDisplay() failed.

I would be really glad if someone could possibly help me.

I need Zoom for work and I've been afraid to update Zoom due to the build script being broken for some time. How do i contact the maintainer of broken packages when this occurs? Is there a way to take over maintenance of a package when the current maintainer is unable to keep up? Thanks for any information

• RAM: 24GiB

On the OS starting all is working fine after it boots, but some time I've noticed that the resuming from the RAM-sleep just killing my LBM just after I touch the sensor-mouse.

So then, I've restarted the OS, seen that the touchpad and all it functionality were ok, and:

sudo modprobe -r psmouse
sudo modprobe psmouse

What I noticed first? I've noticed that it's doesn't help at all and just instantly broke the touchpad with the same behavior like after resuming; you touched the sensor, and then you're in the LMB loop, all works except the LMB.

Then all combinations with sudo modprobe psmouse never fixed the issue, - synaptics_intertouch=0, =1, whatever..

I was able only to gut my touchpad with sudo modprobe psmouse proto=imps, and lost at least the half of it can do.

So then I've done these:

$ cat /sys/bus/serio/devices/serio1/protocol

I can't get what that all mean, ok...

---

Then GPT throws me the into the hell circles like sudo modprobe -r psmouse && echo -n "reconnect" | sudo tee /sys/bus/serio/devices/serio1/drvctl && sudo modprobe psmouse, i8042.nomux=1, i8042.reset=1, i8042.nopnp=1 that done nothing.

........ And then I've tried xinput disable "SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad" && xinput enable "SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad", and yes it finally wakes my LMB up and the touchpad works as it should after the modprobe!

So, now I dont know where I should do my bug report.. And how to implemet that fix-command into zzz.d/resume.

What additional information should I collect and so on? Help please. I was trying to fix it for the whole week.

UPD:

My click button under the touchpad's sensor panel dies when fixing with the xinput after modprobe psmouse. And nothing can fix, even `sudo reboot`, it can being fixed only through power shutdown and then the click button works, until the RAM-suspending comes..

The full shutdown fixes the `sudo modprobe -r psmouse && sudo modprobe psmouse` pipeline, but can't help in general.

I recently put void Linux on my "tinker" laptop. After a LOT of searching and scrambling, I got it installed, running Sway, connected to the internet, and got my Bluetooth earbuds to connect. Now I can load up media online and watch it, right? WRONG. I can load up a YouTube video using qutebrowser, and it plays from my laptop. No problem, just open helvum or wpctl or something to reconnect the nodes from source to sink the right way around. I open these thing.

There are no audio source nodes. None. The audio is ACTIVELY playing from my computer, but apparently there are NO sources. The only blue nodes in helvum are my earbuds. wpctl list only device nodes and sink nodes. Where is the source?? I KNOW its playing audio. I can hear it, load and clear through my laptop.

Please help me before I go up a wall

Edit: minor spelling mistakes and incorrect words

NetAcad only offers a .deb file. I know Arch has an AUR-package for it.
So how would I install it on void linux? Or is there an alternative application for it?

I’m new to Linux and my friend told me to get void so I did. However, upon loading wtv “Void Linux 6.12.11_1 (x86_64)” is it shows this. I burned the xfce glibc 64 bit image onto my flash drive and there were no errors. It’s 64gb so it couldn’t have run out of space. Please help.

hello. I have gtx750. When i updated my system, x stopped working. I tried to fix it, but did not manage to.

I am supposed to use 580 drivers according to docs page. And system installed some open source part of 590 drivers, which does not work with my card.

Recently I've seen a lot of (good) things about Void Linux and decided to try it. Initially I read the documentation but understood very little. Most likely because I'm not so familiar with DIY distros. So I would like to know where I could learn and/or how you learned to use it.

Since this morning, I get the following error when starting Filezilla:

filezilla: symbol lookup error: filezilla: undefined symbol: _ZN12wxWindowBase14RegisterHotKeyEiii

Could be something wrong here, don't know. Anyone else?

In Void Linux, when I use Midnight Commander in tty with themes which support double-line box characters (like darkfar or double-lines), those box characters are substituted with rectangles, and this ruins apperance a little bit, so to say. In other distros (Debian/Devuan, Gentoo), those double-line box characters in tty are replaced with single-line ones, which is OK. I use the same config across all distros. In tty, terminus font is used.

In /etc/rc.conf, I specify:

KEYMAP="ruwin_alt_sh-UTF-8"
FONT="ter-v16b"

Locale is set to en_IE.UTF-8.

So, that's the question: what do I need to do in order to fix this issue? Maybe, I need to specify certain font map/inimap? At the same time, I need that Russian keyborad layout and also support for Cyrillic symbols in UTF in the tty, so that not every keymap would satisfy my needs, I presume?

I have started to see a lot of content about Void linux in my feed recently. And I do not understand the hype it is getting. Not that I tried it but it just seems like any other distros. What am I missing here or not missing?

Kernel: 7.2.2_1

[loginctl suspend] works fine.

What I've tried:

1] Disable acpid

2] Uncommented options in [Sleep] section of [/etc/elogind/sleep.conf]

3] [resume=UUID=] in kernel commandline options. Using a swap partition

4] using ZZZ -H and ZZZ

- command executed from within [sway]. Got mixed results from outside of sway in tty. Sometimes it will work, but there is no consistency. Starting sway with [dbus-run-session] does not help.
