You don't say whether you've installed the Liquorix keyring, but it looks as though you haven't:

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get install '^liquorix-([^-]+-)?keyring.?'

[ganeshanair]

i did install the keyring before and did the installlation but when i looked at how the installation went in synaptic manager i saw that the dkms was showing error still

[titetanium]

That's not an error messsage. It's a warning letting u know that u are installing from a source that hasn't been verified by apt/dpkg. The key ring needs to be installed. Alternatively have u tried

Code: Select all

sudo apt-key add 3EFF4F272FB2CD80

to install the keyring? Follow that with apt-get update and the liquorix kernel shouldn't produce a warning. As for dkms, what module are u trying to compile for the new kernel? Have u also installed the headers for the liquorix kernel to compile external modules via dkms?

Doesn't help that your sources.list is a mess.

Mixing Ubuntu, LMDE, Debian testing, Debian sid, plus other 3rd party repos is just asking for a screwed up system.

1) Pick which release you are going to run. Are you tracking LMDE latest, Debian Testing, or Debian sid?
2) Never ever use Ubuntu PPAs with LMDE/Debian
3) Learn the difference between a warning and a error message.
4) Learn how to use apt-get or aptitude
5) if you must have a package that is only in a Ubuntu PPA add the deb-src line and build a proper Debian .deb package

Read the Linux Mint Forums • View topic - LMDE FAQ : http://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?f=197&t=91405

Craig,

I have come across this sort of "repo mess" before, in this & other forums both you & I frequent. Usually from ex-Windows converts who think application installation is like Windows where you can pick up bits of Shareware & Freeware from all over the place & "make" it work.

If you don't mind, I have copied your reply to use in future as the basis for a stock reply - much easier & more straightforward than trying to address each aspect of someone's problem who has got themselves in such a tangle.

Just letting you know in case you see a reply somewhere that gives you a daunting sense of deja vu!!

cheers,
rhodry.

2) Never ever use Ubuntu PPAs with LMDE/Debian

While this is obviously an excellent general rule, there are exceptions. For example, an entire PPA has been setup for Cinnamon themes and extensions and this very PPA is recommended for both Mint 13 and LMDE right here on these very boards.

Obviously one needs to be smart if planning to use an Ubuntu PPA in a Debian system. For individual superficial software packages such as screenlets or the aforementioned Cinnamon themes and extensions, using an Ubuntu PPA is relatively harmless. Other PPAs like xorg-edgers repository of latest Xorg and xserver drivers or an Ubuntu PPA containing updated KDE, Gnome or critical system packages could royally screw up an LMDE system. Moreover, not everyone, especially newbies or Windows refugees will have the wherewithal to use source packages to build a proper DEB. My advice is to be smart when adding repositories and do some Googling in advance to ensure others haven't had problems or to determine if the desired action is feasible. Also, users need to learn patience! In this modern age of instant gratification, many users insist on getting the latest version of a software package instantly. These users need to reflect on whether they want stability or cutting edge. If one is willing to go outside official repositories for a must-have package, then one must also be willing to accept the risks inherent in doing so.

i had a clean system. with nouveau driver i just deleted DKMS then install the liquorix kernel. later i install Nvidia drivers and its installs the DKMS to, iand DKMS made the DKMS.CONF for liquorix.
I only have some problem with coldstarts, i had already deleted plymouth and rechange the resolution, but further it works here....
