Peter,
You can change the root password with “sudo passwd”.
Have a nice day.

Please note: Void PPC is EOL so we have to be careful with installing and updating of packages.

FYI
Wicknix wrote: Better hurry and install the packages you want. The void ppc repo could get taken offline any day now. Even the old ppc maintainer doesnt know the exact date as its not his server. Otherwise it really is a nice OS. Install octo-xbps for a gui package installer. Makes finding stuff much easier.

Hi All,
The latest Void disk image has a boot and a root partition. I was able to mount the root partition from the disk image and copy it to a new disk image with the following commands:
Output:
Output:
Calculate the offset from the start of the image to the partition start
Sector size * Start = (in the case) 512 * 473088 = 242221056
Mount it on /dev/loop0 using the offset.

Re: Void Linux
Hi All,
I was able to update Void in the root disk image yesterday. I think, this is the last Void disk image. Please change to Fienix in the future.
New:
If you want to enable hardware acceleration manually, then edit the file /etc/X11/xorg.conf. Change the "driver" from fbdev to radeon.
Please test it.
Thanks,
Christian

New:
- Noboot disk image (image without boot partition)
- Fbdev is pre-configured
- Renamed the libglamoregl.so to libglamoregl.so.bak
- Yaru themes
- Arctic Fox 40.1
- Pale Moon 31.2
If you want to enable hardware acceleration manually, then edit the file /etc/X11/xorg.conf. Change the "driver" from fbdev to radeon.
Please test it.

Re: Void Linux
Configure the language (locales) in Void PPC
BTW, here is a screenshot of the Void Installer in action:
- Choose your language:
Code: Select all
sudo vim /etc/default/libc-locales
Code: Select all
sudo xbps-reconfigure -f glibc-locales
- Replace the locale with yours in the file /etc/locale.conf
- Logout and then login again

Important:
TRIM will not be activated automatically if Void runs on an SSD.
I installed cronie and created a cron job for fstrim.

Thanks to Roland for the hint.

TRIM will not be activated automatically if Void runs on an SSD.
I tested fstrim manually today and it works.SSD TRIM enables an operating system to inform a NAND flash solid-state drive (SSD) which data blocks it can erase because they are no longer in use. The use of TRIM can improve the performance of writing data to SSDs and contribute to longer SSD life.

Re: Void Linux
Hi All,
There isn't a TV card software available for Void PPC. Therefore I created a TVtime package for Void PPC today.
Download: TVtime_1.0.11_linux-powerpc.tar.gz
Installation:
- Unpack the package and create the directory /usr/share/tvtime with the following command:
Code: Select all
sudo mkdir /usr/share/tvtime
- After that copy the font tvtimeSansBold.ttf to the directory /usr/share/tvtime/ with the following command:
Code: Select all
sudo cp usr/share/tvtime/tvtimeSansBold.ttf /usr/share/tvtime/
- Then you can start TVtime with ./tvtime.
