Different boot behavior observed when booting 32-bit version

Tue Oct 07, 2025 1:18 pm

I have a known-working display+touch connected to SPI0. Prepared a fresh uSD with Trixie, enabled the display and boot it (using same uSD + display) on different Pi's. That's where one can observe a difference in the boot behavior:

CM4 -> when booting the OS the boot logo is well centered on screen
Pi Zero 2 W -> when booting the OS the boot logo is way to big and going 'off-screen' to the right
RPi 3B -> when booting no logo get's shown, just a gray background with 3 white 'dots' (small squares), off-center as well

Bellow snippet is from Pi Zero 2W to give you some details.

We're all up to our eyebrows in late beta testing for MX-25, but I wanted to pass along a couple of quick items from my 30 minutes of attention:

1. Clean install of full OS w/o problem on a Pi 5 using a 125G microSD.
2. Appreciate terrific user-oriented changes all over: Control Center, first post-installation opening screens, etc.
3. Reorganization under the hood obviously took a lot of thinking and work, and is a major step forward.
4. Fabulous default wallpaper

Congratulations from the MX Devs on a job extremely well done.
MX-23 Fluxbox (mxlinux.org) on a Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon 5th.
MX-23 RPi Respin on a Pi 5.

Finally! I installed Trixie on the 4th, and had a pretty crazy day of it, but everything is going well now.

I just had some documents to transfer so I put them on a thumb drive and did the full install of Trixie. When I went to move the folders back from the thumb drive there was a glitch which left the image of a folder stuck to my mouse. The system kept freezing so I rebooted. I was able to copy the folders using copy and paste.

My Pi5 16gb is mounted in an Argon One V5 case but the script to install the case configuration failed. This is the command:

curl https://download.argon40.com/argon1v5.sh | bash

The case provides 2 additional USB ports which are unusable until I get this figured out.

Sounds like something you should take up with argon40


[edit]
At a guess and based on their manual all you need to do is probably add the following to the end of your /boot/firmware/config.txt and reboot:

Code: Select all

This issue's been discussed many times already. Check this for an easy fix

Why do you say "it failed" ?
This script must NOT be executed with elevated privileges. No "sudo" here...

Try to execute this in a terminal

Code: Select all

argonone-config
The uninstall command is :

Code: Select all

argonone-uninstall

and start over (no sudo !!!). Installed it many times, as well as for other argon40 cases, never had an issue (except when I tried to install being root)

I've had that happen to me on Bookworm, so not new. Running near-default system with Wayland, patched up to date. Select one or more files, image of folder attaches to mouse pointer. Move mouse over to target window; however target window doesn't change appearance, and clicking has no effect. Have to select and paste files in some other way.
System otherwise appeared stable. Image only goes on a reboot.

(Not tried Trixie yet - although the minimal length of this tread compared to the Bookworm counterpart suggests it should be pretty trouble-free).

I now have 11 pi running trixie. Looks great, works fine. A couple bobbles I'm still looking into - maybe on me. Again, mostly just fine.

pi5-8GB, 64-bit full, official 512GB nvme drive and M.2 hat
pi4-8GB, 64-bit, 240GB Kingston A400 SSD over usb
pi4-4GB, 64-bit, 480GB ditto
pi4-2GB, 64-bit, Sandisk Ultra Plus 32GB micro sd card
pi2, 32-bit, ditto
pi zero 2, 32-bit, ditto
1x pi zero W, 32-bit, ditto 16GB
3x pi zero W, 32-bit lite, Microcenter basic 16GB micro sd card
pi zero, 32-bit lite, ditto

A shoutout to Simion et al, for providing ever-better software that can run on machines of such vastly different specs.

A shout-out to bls, whose sdm I used to personalize and burn these. (Fine print: some additional / odder / more complicated modifications were done via my own scripts afterwards, though I'm slowing pushing more of the mods into sdm. So forky will be even easier. ;-) )

It's been discussed before in the beta section but maybe this thread will get more attention.

It seems there is something wrong with the "remove safely" feature from PCmanFM and the taskbar. Removable media connected with USB fail to eject properly in Trixie.

I have posted a detailed description of the issue here:
viewtopic.php?p=2340654#p2340635
as well as the commands I use to overcome this problem and prevent my disks from being corrupted

It'd be great if more people could confirm this issue

I tried it, and for me it worked. I've only tested a USB stick so can't answer if it always works.
Many thanks...
Yes I wrote that USB sticks don't seem to be affected by this issue... It occurs with sata or nvme disks when plugged with USB
I have now tested some hard drives + NVMe in enclosure. I also get error when ejecting. The latest OS, (Trixie) and all the fixes that have come out after October 1st.

Tested different hard drives and SSDs + enclosures. Western Digital, Seagate, Toshiba. Everyone came out with errors when ejecting. Hoping for a fix. I plug a lot of hard drives and SSDs into my Pi. I use it often and have it like a regular computer often. Powerful enough most of the time.

Did you try to go manual as I explained in the other thread ?
When I do this, it ALWAYS works without errors

Code: Select all

dwam@rpi5:~ $ udisksctl unmount -b /dev/sdb1
Unmounted /dev/sdb1.

Nope, I haven't tried it yet. Do it next time. There is nothing worse than seeing errors when ejecting hard drives with important data on them.

I could think of many things worse, restoring from your backup is a mere annoyance.

Yep, I don't dare to plug hard drives into the Raspberry Pi as it looks now. Now it's just for testing.

I've tested in Raspberry Pi OS with KDE Plasma installed on Trixie with: sudo apt install kde-plasma-desktop and everything works fine.

So I guess it's a bug-like thing with Raspberry Pi OS as it works if you just put KDE on it. I like both Raspberry Pi OS and KDE Plasma as a desktop environment. Luckily, KDE Plasma doesn't come with too many unnecessary programs as I'm minimalist.

I know there are several ways to eject a USB disk. But I want it easy and it should always work in my opinion.

I have one RPI5 with Trixie (upgrade from Bookworm) and KDE too and I experience the same issues. It's not as often but it's not 100% safe either... at least for me so far...

AFAIK it's the default behaviour, so it makes sense if you did not change this in RPCC

I'll have to try further. Only tried a few times with these drives.

It is a Seagate Barracuda 1TB, Toshiba basic 1TB and a Kingston NVMe 250GB in a Ugreen enclosure.

However, I noticed another thing with Trixie and mobile phones. PCMan File Manager doesn't work with my phone. Samsung. Dolphin worked. Always something ;).

Have your tried using raspi-config instead of RPCC?
I noticed they behave differently at times.
However there are many updates these days, so it's hard to say. Worth trying though
