Unity8-notch-hax doesn't seem to work

@domubpkm first sudo apt update and then try again.

@roxito said in Unity8-notch-hax doesn't seem to work:

sudo apt update

For a classic linux distribution yes, but I'm not sure you should do that under UT..

@domubpkm in this specific case, that is the right course of action. In fact I am surprised the script doesn't do this itself.

@domubpkm

$ sudo mount -o remount,rw && sudo apt update && sudo mount -o remount,ro

@arubislander Thank you. I was waiting for confirmation of that, I used UTT to make the image writable. So I did run sudo apt update. I didn't understand everything , it told me that more than 90 packages can be modified and be seen after a certain command : I didn't do anything and only rebooted the volla and then I could install the notch-hax again!

arubislander

@domubpkm Yes, apt update refreshes the package cache. This needs to be done after a reinstall or channel switch if you need to install a new package.

The message at the end just informed you that there were updates for many of the installed packages. But of course it is definitely not recommended to update them via apt. (the command for that would be sudo apt upgrade. But don't do this. It will definitely break the OS in such a way that you would need to reinstall to fix it.)

@arubislander I'm on OTA-20, isn't it the new storage that i have now ?

arubislander

@domubpkm That looks like the old storage still...

I am not sure, but I thought the new storage was merged after OTA-20 came out. So it would be in the RC channel now.

I run on DEVEL myself, so I tend to not be sure what is and isn't already in the stable channel.

@domubpkm IIRC it missed 20 but will be in OTA-21. Currently it is in dev and may have reached RC by now.
