Rpi4 < $(community_build)

New to this thread and to ORT in general, looking for some help on this RPI build. How do I disable the argon theme? Not really my style and seems to render things out of area on my phone and laptop. If there are other themes to choose from then maybe switching themes would do, however, I don't know where and how to switch themes

finally gotten around to bumping argon(2.2.9)...

  • (unaware users can find settings in luci>system>argonconfig)
  • (old /etc/dark is no longer used)
  • (colors may be a little jumpy for the first few builds)

use-firefox-minor-css-issue-to-still-fix

i'm finding (possibly my 6month? old) chromium has some issues with how
it pulls down the css/caches but firefox seems maybe ok...
(pretty sure jerry advises chromium... but... ffox may be better for now)

anyone using 'current'+argon let me know if chromiumVSfirefox
works(or doesn't)... the issue happens when a page first loads(first i.e. not that many) the css does not... (but clicking refresh usually fixes)

(3.5.99-25_r17795+)

issue could be on my side... but...

or if anyone hails from the far east(well north from here) and can read/check these issues for
anything to do with css not loading

Hmm. Never knew there was such a page showing real-time stats, but mine just stays on “collecting data” even if I leave it for 5 mins

Any ideas? On latest build

the 'rate' page in realtime graphs... is provided and generated by nft-qos

(modded: there is a custom uci option for this nft-qos.default.monitor_enable='1' which is default on)

enable and start nft-qos /etc/init.d/nft-qos enable; /etc/init.d/nft-qos start (or luci > system > startup) to populate the backend collection rules...

to permanently enable on upgrade add nft-qos to ENABLEDSERVICES at /root/wrt.ini


its really light weight... so most people can add this without worrying about extra load... ( the rest of nft-qos is dormant and inactive )

Im very confused regarding how to "expand the filesystem" in order to use the full diskspace of the sdcard after flashing.

I found multiple resources but am unsure which one is correct and will not mess up my whole device after following it.

e.g. https://openwrt.org/docs/guide-user/additional-software/extroot_configuration, https://bugs.openwrt.org/index.php?do=details&task_id=2951 or Expanding OpenWrt squashfs image? (SDcard) - #7 by hc62 or https://openwrt.org/docs/guide-user/installation/installation_methods/sd_card#expanding_the_filesystem

What must I do to have the full capacity of the sdcard usable?

check you have ROOTFSEXPAND=1 in /root/wrt.ini then sysupgrade...

yeah I have that checked and previously ran /bin/rpi-sysup-online.sh -R current

from what version to what version?
(as it happens during the upgrade process... you may need to upgrade twice if you don't upgrade often as the first one won't have the necessary logic)

how can I check the previous version?
I can see this:

And yes it was the first time upgrading ever, so now I must upgrade again? How though If i run /bin/rpi-sysup-online.sh -R again it will not do it - so must I force it now and if so, how?

/bin/rpi-sysup-online.sh -R downgrade

will fix force it may want a manual flavour

/bin/rpi-sysup-online.sh -R current force

or use the normal old school way...
cd /tmp
wget https://rpi4.wulfy23.info/builds/devel/rpi-4_snapshot_3.5.99-25_r17795_extra/rpi4.64-snapshot-26935-3.5.99-25-r17795-ext4-sys.img.gz
sysupgrade -R rpi4.64-snapshot-26935-3.5.99-25-r17795-ext4-sys.img.gz

I ran

/bin/rpi-sysup-online.sh -R downgrade

followed by

/bin/rpi-sysup-online.sh -R current

now

grep ROOTFSEXPAND /root/wrt.ini
