buster64 X problem

<< < (2/2)

amuctued:
Regarding the missing openvpn it wasn't just openvpn. My debian_buster_main_amd64_Packages and debian_buster_security_amd64_Packages files somehow got empty which caused sce-import to not find most stuff. I guess I ctrl+c'ed or ctrl+ald+del'ed out of something.

dCore is similar to alpine in this. Every time I run sce-import dCore tries to download index files to make sure I get the latest. The difference is however dCore mounts usb as read-write where alpine mounts read-only. When alpine auto fetches the indexes it stores them to usb also. My guess is alpine first fetches those to ram and then if successful transfers to disk. Where dCore stores them directly to disk? I guess I'm trying to explain why I've never experienced corrupted files in alpine. I can be wrong

Jason W:
The index files are stored in /etc/sysconfig/tcedir/import/debinx/.  And zsync is used to update them so a whole new file is not downloaded as the main one is usually about 10 or 15 MB.   I created zero length files of the index files on my setup as a test, and on sce-import those files are fetched again and all works as expected. 

amuctued:
I deleted the whole debinx directory before I could import openvpn again. Maybe it was another file in that dir.

Anyway the initial X problem got resolved by loading the graphics package. Turns out it contains graphics kernel modules.

I also tried loading graphics and input-tablet packages in stretch64 but X still freezes with the loaded xserver-xorg-input-wacom driver. Nothing is perfect I guess
