If LVM isn't somehow mitigating the issue I will do a reinstall.
I have run out of space on / before and it is a huge pain in the ass. I do not need much room for /home on this system so I would prefer to be cautious and avoid problems down the road.
Hopefully I will be able to figure out how to specify this.... maybe a different installer image.
It's so weird how different shipping/distribution can be for different kinds of things. Keyboard-type stuff seems to suffer from it a lot. Even my favorite brand keychron, which seems like a legit business selling at low/mid price, only lists a tiny number of their items on amazon.ca. Buying direct from their website or aliexpress adds a big shipping charge.
OK thanks! It sort of looks like it would be possible but I didn't want to go too aggressively at the existing cable until I have a replacement.
The aliexpress seller linked above repeats "The Line Sequence Needs To Be Changed" several times in the description. Maybe this is what that means?
custom rom is the reason I spent so much time trying to get a pixel.
but I am giving up on this one. next device is going to run lineage so I can have a wider variety to try to find one that works. maybe I'll try a motorola.
there isn't swappa in canada
no it was a refurb business that didn't have exact item photos. Because the flashing is somewhat intermittent I wonder if it wasn't quite as bad when they were looking at it, maybe something got knocked loose in transit?
Previous transaction in similar circumstances have had better luck. I am not very picky about display quality or case damage so burn in, dead pixels, dim lines, dents, small cracks etc are no issue and I stop noticing them pretty quickly. I get cheap 5/10 condition phones and they are plenty good enough for me. I have never seen the bright white line thing. Also didn't realize that the display would be black where the cracks are; must be some great new display technology to prevent you from extending the life of a busted screen by applying a protector. Fantastic can't wait till all phones have this.
I think everyone's right I have to send it back. Very annoying.. it's harder to get this stuff in Canada if you are looking for custom ROM compatible phones. It's so much work to find the correct kind of item. Shipping takes forever. Oh well cest la vie. I guess I shall have to read another paper book.
thanks! so for example: Intel Gigabit Dual PORT GIGABIT ETHERNET PCIe NIC Card EXPI9402PT NC360T which is CA$30. Does that sound right?
Yes this was the winner!
it looks like a low-bs rss reader. nice!
The tiny bearing do not inspire confidence in me. I am always picturing something a bit more substantial.
I have the impression these are basically disposable. However logitec recently has created some relationship with ifixit so perhaps there is some chance to salvage them. Especially if you have a bunch of differently-broken devices hanging around.
