@Sultan Alsawaf Thanks for the feedback, but it must be a dependency problem for the following reasons: 1.) If I had a signed kernel, I could see it when I query the list of installed packages with dpkg -l 2.) It worked until mid-December when Kernel 5.0.0 was available (Kernel 5.3.0 was only in

[Bug 1848940] Re: gnome-control-center does not respect symbolic links

2019-10-20 Thread Matthias Kruzenski
In short: Symbolic links are absolutely necessary to exclude files from overlayfs. Long explanation: I use overlayfs to protect my system's root file system. With overlayfs all changes are only in RAM. So any change is only temporary. I want some changes to be persistent. To do that I copy these

A purely speculative assumption: For some reason, Logitech hardware can immediately go into autosuspend mode. To prevent this, you can add the following kernel command line parameter: usbcore.autosuspend=-1 In addition, you should execute the following commands: tee --append /etc/modprobe.d/us

I can confirm that vlc starts on a system where the root filesystem uses obverlayfs + Kernel 5.0.0-31-generic (testet with Ubuntu 18.04, apt-get install linux-generic-hwe-18.04). @Rik I accidentally clicked on the fix committed link, I did not know that anyone can change the status without furthe

The reason why vlc does not start is definitely the overlay filesystem. How can I know that? I use Ubuntu on a fully encrypted USB stick with overlay root filesystem (which makes the USB super fast, even faster than ssd). To enable the overlay root filesystem I use the following initramfs script
