TimurTheLame 2017-03-08 00:52:24
hellyeah, are you running a custom kernel?
hellyeah 2017-03-08 00:52:50
my kernel is 4.9.0-0.bpo.1-686-pae
hellyeah 2017-03-08 00:53:09
i just use kernel that comes with debian installation
TimurTheLame 2017-03-08 00:54:00
hellyeah, if you'd do "sudo dkms status", you'd see that wl is not built because the "headers" package for your particular kernel isn't installed

If you have a question, just ask! For example: "I have a problem with ___; I'm running Debian version ___. When I try to do ___ I get the following output ___. I expected it to do ___." Don't ask if you can ask, if anyone uses it, or pick one person to ask. We're all volunteers; make it easy for us to help you. If you don't get an answer try a few hours later or on debian-user@lists.debian.org. See .

I would like to ask for your help, I installed and configured Debian (dual boot with WIN10) about 2 months ago. I had a problem with resolution initially, however I follow up tutorial from https://wiki.debian.org/NvidiaGraphicsDrivers under "Debian 8 "Jessie" and was able to fix issues, OS detects correct resolution and my graphic card (GTx 1080). Everything was great, I was digging into Debian, but since 2/3 days I'm experiencing

I'm using Dell U3415W (connected by mDP 1.1 as Debian is not supporting DP 1.2 - audio) with audio (built in) and when screen starts blinking (black screen) I'm also losing audio, after 2 seconds everything works fine, but issue appears every few minutes, diode fro

compass_ 2017-03-08 01:33:01
so i upgraded kernel from 3.16(for old 586 procs) to same version but for 686 procs to enable multi core support
compass_ 2017-03-08 01:33:03
which works
compass_ 2017-03-08 01:33:37
but now wifi is hard blocked and linux doesn't recognize hardware switch. and it hangs on shutdown rather than switching off
compass_ 2017-03-08 01:34:00
hmm
tocix 2017-03-08 01:34:38
How did you upgrade linux?
compass_ 2017-03-08 01:35:39
sudo apt-get install linux-image-3.16.0-4-686-pae
compass_ 2017-03-08 01:36:43
was using linux-image-3.16.0-4-586 originally
TimurTheLame 2017-03-08 01:38:16
compass_, do you have the linux-headers-*your-version* package installed?
compass_ 2017-03-08 01:38:46
didn't do that explicitly, i guess that's a thing i should do right now :x
petn-randall 2017-03-08 01:40:22
compass_: I'm actually surprised those two kernels made a difference. The latter one just has PAE enabled.
compass_ 2017-03-08 01:41:34
hi petn-randall :D
compass_ 2017-03-08 01:42:02
yeah i thought it was worth a try. i get two cores now but lose wifi and have to manually power down lol
compass_ 2017-03-08 01:42:48
strange trade off
compass_ 2017-03-08 01:43:47
i read the debian page about 586 and it said only supports single core
petn-randall 2017-03-08 01:45:01
compass_: Where does it say that?
petn-randall 2017-03-08 01:45:33
compass_: Indeed! It says so in the package description. I didn't know that.
tw 2017-03-08 01:45:33
Kerberos_: does that happen in windows? because that sounds connectivity related.
compass_ 2017-03-08 01:45:33
yeah!
compass_ 2017-03-08 01:45:33
ok i've installed headers for 686 kernel, gonna restart and cross fingers

BluesKaj 2017-03-08 01:46:09
nope , this is debian support , so that's why I'm here

oh well, guess 686 doesn't play nicely with this computer
bezaban 2017-03-08 01:47:56
been long since I've done anything with i386, I think it's purged from my memory

n:true but that is not the correct syntex (as it seems)
kerberos_ 2017-03-08 02:43:13
BluesKaj: I tried both, and I have checked "Output Devices" tab, I can see only that bar of sound is only moving for "HDA Nvidia Digital Stereo (HDMI), port (HDMI / DisplayPort 2 (unplugged) and not not moving for BUilt- in Audio DIgital Stereo (IEC958)
BluesKaj 2017-03-08 02:43:15
kerberos_, I'm noy real familiar with display port audio , but I assume it's the same as hdmi from the soundcard, however , if that doen't work experiment with theo ther audio output options
