yeye, as long you dont cut functionality, as we seen in the past, im for "unification".
Epson should know best how to handle its devices? wouldnt you agree?
if drivers have become obsolete, let me know.

yes, but Epson Driver relies on LSB, so why censor older packages?

if a driver is better than the other, why not use it?

this has been solved here,

still useful in 2023

thanks for the help, had added the stretch sources.list temporarily, as for me the wayback seemed not "throw" find out the .deb file needed, so in one way or another, and with your help, this can be marked solved. yes, it should also work "driverless", but this not my preferred w...

Hello , to properly install the printer driver for my printer epson ecotank et-5170 i would need LSB package; since it is not available on Debian 9,10, the printer driver is not available to install, but this problem can be circumventet by installing package "lsb-compat" on debian 9 and 10...

took the easy and resorted to Ubuntu, which is not what i desired to, but it ended being the safe route, after even rescatux *various versions etc failed< there must be something wrong on my side, probably i changed sometime a BIOS setting *have safemode off, CSM on, fastboot off, but then there are...

yes, grub-probe does find the UUID of the mounted drive, like mount /dev/nvme0n1p1 /mnt root@debian:~# grub-probe --target=fs_uuid /mnt/EFI/Microsoft/Boot/bootmgfw.efi D2C1-F013 however, upon reboot, the error is there again: (for Windows drive 1) hd3,gpt1error: file `/EFI/Microsoft/Boot/bootmgfw.ef...

i tried your method, but with nvme0n1p1 and nvme1n1p2 since those gave back UUID, but the "sudo update-grub" would not return the Windows entries. What do you mean by "would not return the Windows entries"? Did you check /boot/grub/grub.cfg to see if the new menuentries have bee...

hello random, thanks for your help, the actual NVME with the 5 EFI entry is being recognized, maybe this got stranged because of the Windows 11 install, since it got installed on this computer maybe in another way, via hack, dont remember it well now. or maybe it was caused because previously with G...

for Debian 10/Devuan 3.0 as anticipated, the Grubmenu-enttry for second NVME disappeared, during upgrade was getting this warning: Warning: os-prober will be executed to detect other bootable partitions. Its output will be used to detect bootable binaries on them and create new boot entries. Found W...

the issue is the more less the same for Debian and Devuan , in this case<
unfortunately, but will let you know how the upgrade goes and may keep you posted.

at the moment iam running Devuan Ascii 2.0, which yields cat /etc/debian_version 9 grep GRUB_DISABLE_OS_PROBER /etc/default/grub (no output) the output for /etc/default/grub for Devuan Ascii 2.0 (based on Stretch) uploaded here https://justpaste.it/93swh when i update to Debian 10/Devuan 3.0, can se...

can confirm that the issue is "solved" when Debian 9 is installed, since there it would correctly see both NVME and list the entries in Grub Startmenu; upgrading to Debian Buster however breaks the Grubentry, and only one NVME is listed in Grubmenu (NVME0, win11). this is unfortunate bit, ...

Thank you for the kind answer, yes, i can boot Windows 7 directly from BIOS, so the EFI is valid and not corrupted, but the grub does not recognized it, as it should? installed Debian on the SSD, and selectted "use whole disk" in partitioning menu, because i thought this is the most secure...

had also such model for some time, it works fairly well with Linux, it could still be quieter to taste.very compact , quick and responsive. the 2,5 ethernet had issues, driver installation (Windows) was bit cumbersome. @devNull think that this is made by Design, there are vPro Model that can be remo...
