I suggest using Codeberg instead:

So after upgrading, I no longer have access to internet. It (WiFi settings and top bar) says I am connected and ping connects, but firefox, warp and dino do not have access.

Did you upgrade everything possible? What about mobile data?
May be some problems with DNS discovery…

On my first test (Spare L5), I ran sudo apt upgrade and lost connection but 43 packages did not get upgraded.
On my second test (SD Card), I ran sudo apt full-upgrade and all the packages updated but I still lost connection.

I have not been able to test Mobile Data yet.

Ok. Are you able to open network settings?

  • long tap in the top bar menu on wifi network name
  • Wi-Fi settings
  • Gear in the right side of your network

Nothing strange there? IPv4/v6 tab?

Could you ping another websites by IP (8.8.8.8)?

p.s. I believe it may be some lost in the network settings… May be also worth to remove the network and configure again.

So, as far I can not edit the first message I will list the versions here and just make this one as a solution.

What is INSIDE the link:

  • geary 44 (46 crashes for me, not tested), install together with folks-common
  • chatty 0.8.5
  • gnome-calls 47
  • gnome-contacts 47 (takes a lot of memory for me)
  • gnome-calendar 47
  • gnome-maps 47 (setting button does not work)
  • gnome-books 40
  • gnome-authenticator 3.32
  • phosh 0.43.0
  • phosh-osk-stub 0.43
  • squeekboard 1.42.1
  • libcamera 0.3.2
  • systemd 254.16 (do not forget to install manually systemd-resolved and systemd-container)

Enjoy your freedom with Librem 5!

Yes

Everything seems to line up with my DD.

8.8.8.8 pings just fine. As does 0.0.0.0 :man_shrugging:

I did that and nothing changed.

Please try to check if systemd-resolved has been installed and other systemd- related packages, located in the archive, too.

systemd-container can also be required by waydroid, I’ve forgot the list of the new packages that must be installed manually…

@ASwyD2 , @spacemanspiffy , could you check gnome-calls when calling to short numbers (3 or 4 digits)? It stopped to work for me and I can not understand the reason…

1 Like

gnome-calls 46.3-1 arm64 (my current version)…

The only “short” numbers I could think of was 911 and 411… I tried calling 411 right now and a machine picked up on the other end asking for my city and state.

So I think it’s safe to say that “short” numbers are working for me.

The people told me that the problem depends on an operator and mode of the network. Short numbers could fail in 4G but should work in 2G/3G mode, and it really works for me!

Phosh 0.43 is comming!

Repo has been moved to Codeberg.

Did I read correctly that you have Phosh 0.43 in your backports?
Sidenote: On your Codeberg instance, how would I download all the files in one zip?
Could someone who knows such things teach?
Edit: @galilley , you should create a read.me to tell people how to use your packages.
Thanks for your work

With git tools installed:
git clone https://codeberg.org/galilley/librem5-byzantium-backports.git
The link is available to copy from codeberg page. It copies you the folder and all containing files without zip. You also can use the web-GUI and hit right to the link I spoke before on the ... button - everything else is self-explanation.

And Phosh-version is 0.43, not 43. :wink:

Gnome-clocks 47 is already available!
It is patched to use waked to resume the phone from suspend. libgtk-4 4.16.5 patched to avoid clock hangs when an alarm is triggered is also included.

The one thing that I can not change - the default alarm sound. No one advice works for me, even direct replace of the /usr/share/sounds/freedesktop/stereo/alarm-clock-elapsed.ogg

Have you had any luck resolving this issue yet?

Manual installation of systemd-resolved package should resolve the network issue :). But it is better to wait some independent confirmation :wink:

This did solve that issue for me.
However, I still am not able to upgrade phosh yet, (I probably just need to keep installing packages until it finally works)

It you have a problem during apt dist-upgrade please send me the log in PM.

upd: I’ve lost one package, right now everything must be Ok!

p.s. be careful when upgrading! Make backups and/or second sd-card bootable os for inspection.
