Hello, where do I download Void Linux for PowerPC? 32 and 64 bits
Hi,
I have a problem updating a very old void linux. I tried updating, removing orphaned packages, removing the python-sip-PyQt5 package, but every action on xbps-remove fails with those unresolvable shlibs. Any advice?
Thanks,
Sebastian

Hi,
I have installed this in VMware workstation, seems its having an issue where mouse is invisible until an application is opened, only after that it becomes visble on screen.
Any thoughts on how to fix this ?
Hey, I'm just wondering, if anyone here has installed void on their steam deck, and got audio (speakers) running.
how to install rEFInd
I have dwm with exitmenu patch, but the reboot and shutdown buttons did not work
I tried working it around the exitdwm.c file and tried to make it use the linux scripts for reboot and halt, but still nothing. In the end I thought it was a permission issue so my genius ass went to the sbin folder to try and fix the issue, so after playing around with chown I executed this command ls -l | grep reboot -> halt
which I guess overwritten my halt script binary file and now it's not working.
How can I fix it without needing to reinstall the whole system from scratch?
Edited:
Calling sudo halt
says there is no halt command, and running sudo shutdown -h now
shows this:
Broadcast message from root@VoidK (pts/1) (Tue Oct 8 23:19:31 2024):
system is going down NOW
/usr/bin/shutdown: 73: halt: not found
Edit 2:
Fixed it, I just downloaded the halt.c file from void-linux github and compiled it, then threw it in the /sbin and it works now
I have android-file-transfer-linux installed but the phone is not visible in lsbk or fdisk -l. I can push files through adb but I want to have the option to use normal file transfer. What could be the problem?
Hi ım new in linux world. Im trying to boot void linux from USB drive. I burned iso (base live image musl) with Rufus to USB drive. But ı take these error messages and PC completely freezes. I tried some difrent configurations on Rufus like gpt or mbr etc. My PC has i7 7700HQ + 16GB DDR4 + Nvidia GTX 1070 (Asus GL502VS) (ı heard nvidia has issues with linux but ı dont think this error depend with GPU) Here is the screenshoot of errors:
hello.
I downloaded void packages from git hub
I changed Blender version number in Template file
I run ./xbps-src pkg blender
and I have error:
=> ERROR: SHA256 mismatch for 'blender-4.2.2.tar.xz:'
3af4f44d9e5e5309303417097e017d5087f9bb409bc3724bc49a1292e52aef24
=> ERROR: blender-4.2.2_3: couldn't verify distfiles, exiting...
Is there a simple answer to this?
Or maybe there will be a new Blender in the repo?
Thanks for any hint :-)
What should I do if I want to add a service but I don't know how to write the service run file?
I recently bricked my Void system and need to re-install, I also have windows 10 installed, I have re-installed Void multiple times and all of those times it deleted windows, I dont wanna go through the hassle of updating everything to get my apps to work.
I can't find 'xbps-src' in fresh void install, but It have a xbps-create. What is difference between them? Or how to use it to package a rust binary for example?
Recently I heard about freeBSD team's plan to make it work better on new hardware, specially in laptops, and I would like to know if Linux (specifically Void) works fine in laptops. I hope it will be cleaner and better than freebsd.
I've been going through the documentation for Void's ARM images and I found the default login credentials, but I can't find anything which says whether OpenSSH is enabled by default. If I flash the live image to my Raspberry Pi will I be able to login over the network (Ethernet)? This is a headless device.
i have been installing void linux in qemu and it's stuck on this step
i ran qemu with the command : qemu-system-x86_64 -m 2048 -cdrom ./void-live-x86_64-20240314-base.iso -hda ./VoidLinux.img -netdev user,id=mynet0 -device e1000,netdev=mynet0 -display sdl

I have installed the latest version of void linux xfce image. I have installed necessary drivers for Intel GPU and mesa dri but I haven't installed xorg. Is it necessary to install it ? Could someone help me with this like what all is required for proper setup?
Hello guys, i tried Void about 6 months ago and KDEConnect was a mess, i want to know if its working now in a non kde environment, i usually go for a minimal setup with Qtile as TWM and that's it, however KDEConnect is a must because i have a few devices connected throug it. thanks
A few days ago I set-up runit with per-user services for my user account, then I created a new configuration inside there to start direwolf. That part works great. When the pi boots my user service folder is getting run and direwolf is starting.
But what Im also seeing is a runsv process (running as my user) at 100% CPU. This isnt really too much of a problem from the point of it working. Its not interfering with direwolf. However, somethings not right and I'd like to fix it but I have no idea where to start to figure it out.
I recently downloaded picom in order to do some customization to my voidmusl system--however I was wanting to make use of the slide animations. Is this possible?
Hello,
I wanted to update my void, but during installation, I got the following :
...
public-suffix-2024.07.01_1: collecting files...
purpose-5.116.0_1: collecting files...
ERROR: purpose-5.116.0_1: file `/usr/share/accounts/services/kde/google-youtube.service' already installed by package kf6-purpose-6.6.0_1.
ERROR: purpose-5.116.0_1: file `/usr/share/accounts/services/kde/nextcloud-upload.service' already installed by package kf6-purpose-6.6.0_1.
Transaction failed! see above for errors.
This error doesn't appear on the Common Issues page. Any hint on what happens ? And on how to solve the problem ?
Edit: Maybe it was obvious, but in case it might help: xbps-remove -O
solved the problem
i'll try to be short here:
i use xorg, ctwm if that matters. i'd like to be able to close my laptop's lid but still get a working xorg on a different monitor.
is it possible to accomplish something like that?
Hello.
This just happened to me, Fortunately, when I restart I can boot, but why did that happen?
Hello.
I have a problem on a Qemu virtual machine. I'm installing void linux on my main PC. But, when I enable dbus and then elogind and then reboot this happens with the display manager. any solutions?
Anyone got Void aarch64 running on the orangepi zero 2w? I already tried the prebuild image and also chroot route and it just don't boot at all. Throws me directly into the "failed to mount /dev/mtdblock4".
I have both a 1GB ram and the 4GB board, both does work with the official arch image so i'm not sure what i'm doing wrong.
