Re: Full linux distos on Sailfish OS
 

How I meant was in the command replace the <container_name> with the name of your container. (I think linux2 or something like that.)

Re: Full linux distros on Sailfish OS
 

Yeah, I think the same. Maybe I should change something on the sfos side, in the container or in both. :confused:
The issue (no sound in the container and in the host if the container is running and after) impacts both devices Sony XA2 and Galaxy Note 4 (treltexx). The available options in pavucontrol are the same in the containers on both devices.

Re: Full linux distros on Sailfish OS
 

Levone1 did run the command with the correct container name afterwards. I also posted that and then deleted my message when I noticed. :D

Regarding sound, I can only say that it works for me and others on Pro¹, and I believe it works on X Compact too (not tested, my X Compact died), so maybe you can find something interesting in the the Pro¹ port Git repository?

We'd need Illyria to confirm that sound worked on his X Compact too, because that's an official SFOS release, not a port, and it's surprising that it would not work on XA2 then.

Re: Full linux distros on Sailfish OS
 

I was also surprised why this didn't work on my XA2. Good idea, I'll check the Pro1 repo in github! Thanks.

Re: Full linux distos on Sailfish OS
 

That's what I did. You can see in screenshot that I left <container name> accidentally the first time, but reissued the command properly riggt after...

Re: Full linux distros on Sailfish OS
 

Levone1: Sorry I missed that, but now I saw in the screenshot.
I am trying to install Strech on my treltexx to see whether I get similar issues.

Re: Full linux distros on Sailfish OS
 

I've tried a few... Seems like what usually goes wrong is that the Xwayland build/install process messes up somehow, (it seems like everything is successful as it's building, but it's hard to catch all of it as it scrolls by). Whenever I get Xwayland not found message, sure enough, there's no Xwayland file in /opt/bin. Now, though, on Debian Buster, Xwayland is installed, but I got 'xstart command not found' error when running start_desktop.sh. I used apt-get to install xinit package, and that issue went away, and now I get 'only console users are allowed to run the X server'. Trying to figure that one out...

Also, it seems like internet doesn't work with mobile data, only Wi-Fi ...

Re: Full linux distros on Sailfish OS
 

I have just installed Stretch too. During the process, I spotted something, the content of the /var/lib/lxc/<container_name>/config was not correct. I updated the first post and added my config file there. You may try to use that in your device.
What I recommend is to destroy all containers, delete all files from /home/.lxc and start over. I also recommend using purely the command-line. (I used that to install Stretch.)
If you follow the steps, before you attach the container first, please double-check the config file. I hope finally you will get there.

Kabouik: What I spotted was when I started the GUI of the Stretch, I got the same desktop that I configured for the Sid!! In Sid I installed Conky plus a few apps. I didn't expect to see them in Stretch. Conky was started but I got missing icons for the apps as those were installed in Sid only.
Is somehow the desktop config shared among the desktop distro installations?

Re: Full linux distros on Sailfish OS
 

Yep. I have destroyed the freshly installed stretch container and now my other one (Sid) doesn't start. :(
I only get the 'No Xwayland window' screen rather than the desktop.
I guess, shouldn't have tried to install more than one container at the same time. :(

Edit: Extend the last sentence, I should delete the sid folder in /home/.lxc.
Plus I shouldn't just use Sid's config for Stretch without amending it accordingly.

Re: Full linux distros on Sailfish OS
 

Getting somewhere ... I did a new container with Devuan and used your instructions, and got a window. Now to figure out how to fix the appearance. Screenshots show how it looks. I can't get any different ... Any ideas?
Thanks
