Thanks for the feedback, greatly appreciated.Cu Chulinux wrote:Hi Barry,
My laptop that I've been playing around with Easy and Quirky on is one with the instabilities. Toshiba P55W-C5200 model.
Tried latest versions, the instabilities appear after initial setup and rebooting. Basically the computer becomes unresponsive and I have to hard reset. Usually first the keyboard dies then the pointer shortly after that. Up until first reboot it all seemed to run fine.
Easy 0.8 and 0.6.8 Xerus I checked /mnt/q_ro and there is both a q.sfs and a q_sfs.
Because var points to tmp/var there are no logs to check after rebooting. I am going to try rebooting and dmesg >> file over and over until it acts up to see what messages I get. I'll report back what turns up.
Eventually I'll try booting my desktop with an Easy usb to test it there. It currently runs FreeBSD.
Add: btw the laptop works flawlessly with both Fatdog64 and Xenialpup 7.5
Would you mind testing Quirky Xerus64 8.5?
This has various modes of running, from live-CD, usb-stick, or a full install.
It would be good if you can test stability when running from both live-CD and usb-stick.
If both are unstable, that will tend to indicate a kernel problem.
The usb-stick is a "full install", so completely traditional, the most likely to be stable.
The live-CD runs in RAM, using aufs layered filesystem.
Finding out the stability of these on your Toshiba will be very helpful.
