Finished the upgrade. No issues so far. Got the broken pipe errors during install but all seems okay. I will post if any issues arise.

APT
apt-notifier
I have a problem with apt notifier (MX Updater), it's broken and I can't realize if I messed up or not.
Code: Select all
$ apt-notifier
$ Gtk-Message: 22:04:00.608: Failed to load module "gail"
** (python3:3609): WARNING **: 22:04:00.615: (../atk-adaptor/bridge.c:1105):atk_bridge_adaptor_init: runtime check failed: (root)
I reinstalled python3 and dependencies, atk, apt, that I found in the repo and I can't figure it out.
Updates still work on synaptic ... but somehow I think I've broken something maybe not a bug.
Not sure what the indication might be that apt-notifier is broken. Does it not work anymore?
The message you got, is based on a missing module used by accessibility library:
Would
help?
You're a patient life saver
I ended up going to synaptic just to browse again... and the search for GAIL is different from LIBGAIL, my bad.
I also reenabled the status tray plugin on my panel.
I'm dumber by the day!
That's why this community and OS is the best! Thanks

The "broke pipe" warning is a dkms tool issue, which probably some one upstream need to fix :

hello dolphin_oracle
mx-installer 23.6.05
minstall --oem Success.
finished; then startup ootb.
install had a home/demo directory that i deleted.
yes home has a demo and the user the ootb just created. demo is not an account, just a directory, so i delete the directory.
The previous installer triggered once --ootb on a xfce install and was got the same stray /demo directory. i deleted it.
Beautiful. almost the new default except the spare /demo.
Best installer in the business.

I am trying to upgrade from 21.3 to MX23. I am following the instructions found here:
https://mxlinux.org/wiki/system/upgradi ... nstalling/
All is good until I run the following command as root in terminal:
Code: Select all
$ find /etc/apt -name “*.list” -exec sudo sed -i ‘s/bullseye/bookworm/g’ {} +
This is the error I get:
Code: Select all
$ grep -qF ‘non-free-firmware’ /etc/apt/sources.list.d/debian.list || sudo sed -i ‘s/non-free/non-free non-free-firmware/g’ /etc/apt/sources.list.d/debian.list
sed: -e expression #1, char 1: unknown command: `�'
On the web-page, the single quotes and double-quotes are displayed wrongly (or better have been
replaced by the used web-software.
And if you just copy paste the command those quotings chars will result in such an error,
b/c they have been replaced wrongly by the web-site rendering software (I think wordpress )
So you need edit first the copied command and replace all single quotes and double quotes properly:
e.g. this commnad is wrong:
Code: Select all
find /etc/apt -name “*.list” -exec sudo sed -i ‘s/bullseye/bookworm/g’ {} +
replace all
“ and
” with normal double quotes
"
and all singel quotes
‘ and
’ with normal single quotes
'
so it looks like this:
Code: Select all
find /etc/apt -name "*.list" -exec sudo sed -i 's/bullseye/bookworm/g' {} +
the same for the other command.
wrong:
Code: Select all
grep -qF ‘non-free-firmware’ /etc/apt/sources.list.d/debian.list || sudo sed -i ‘s/non-free/non-free non-free-firmware/g’ /etc/apt/sources.list.d/debian.list
corrected:
Code: Select all
grep -qF 'non-free-firmware' /etc/apt/sources.list.d/debian.list || sudo sed -i 's/non-free/non-free non-free-firmware/g' /etc/apt/sources.list.d/debian.list
@Adrian suggest to use codebox for these commands to avoid those quot-char issue.
Maybe @peregrine could help to add those codeboxes,
on this page
https://mxlinux.org/wiki/system/upgradi ... nstalling/
something similare was done on the Signature verifcation web-page
https://mxlinux.org/wiki/system/signed-iso-files/,
where codeboxes have been added by @peregrine
Thank you!

UPDATE
If any one has a problem with error:
Possible missing firmware /lib/firmware/i915/dg2_huc_gsc.bin for module i915
or similar do this
Code: Select all
~$ mkdir firmware
~$ cd firmware
~$ wget -r -nd -e robots=no -A '*.bin' --accept-regex '/plain/' https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-firmware.git/tree/i915/
~$ sudo mv *.bin /lib/firmware/i915/
~$ sudo update-initramfs -c -k all
Also errors with RTL8812AU (search github for updated drivers of your device - mine is RTL8821CE - for kernel 6x and read the docs)
Code: Select all
Loading new rtl8821cu-5.12.0 DKMS files...
/usr/sbin/dkms: line 2497: echo: write error: Broken pipe
were removed:
Code: Select all
~$ sudo apt update
~$ sudo apt install git dkms
~$ sudo git clone https://github.com/ivanovborislav/rtl8812au
~$ sudo cp -r rtl8812au /usr/src/rtl8812au-5.13.6
~$ sudo dkms add -m rtl8812au -v 5.13.6
~$ sudo dkms build -m rtl8812au -v 5.13.6
~$ sudo dkms install -m rtl8812au -v 5.13.6
although because of a warning from using build and installed different modules after retries I ended up using:
Code: Select all
~$ dkms status
~$ rtl8812au/5.13.6, 6.1.0-9-amd64, x86_64: (different modules warning here!!!)
~$ sudo dkms remove rtl8812au/5.13.6 -k <kernel from dkms status here>
~$ sudo dkms install rtl8812au/5.13.6 -k <kernel from dkms status here>
~$ dkms status
~$ rtl8812au/5.13.6, 6.1.0-9-amd64, x86_64: installed
There maybe typos here... I'm using also a dozen kernels for testing future nvidia modules from v5 to v6 also ahs...
Hope it helps!

Until than in post
#114 in this thread a working fix was mentioned.
Is there any reason not to remove the Realtek -dkms packages, assuming of course the user doesn't have a Realtek wireless adapter?
If a user has a Realtek adapter, is there any reason not to remove the other two packages (keeping only the one matching the adapter)?

I just posted a solution for my RTL882CE issue, not sure if it implements your device!
Mine is an internal wifi/bluetooth pcie I changed (not original, first one died) a while ago on my laptop.

Ventoy 1.0.93 was released today.
It fixed MX-23 not booting (for me, anyway).

I'm sure the MX patch was added to this version. 1.0.91 didn't have it.
*edit
@BV206 Installed Ventoy 1.0.93 on my thumb drive and copied over my MX-23 fluxbox beta 2 ISO and it booted up without any errors.
