Double-check address and port, what android version?

Yeah, I would be surprised if this isn’t a partial upgrade issue.

I’m using the same guide that I wrote for myself last install which worked just fine https://pastebin.com/6k0zxzNV

Yeah, this kind of stuff tends to happen. Things change, your guide didn’t. I’m reading it, but it’s hard to tell if anything on it is wrong. My suggestion for you is to follow the installation guide.

I’m reading the guide now, its states Update the system clock
Use timedatectl(1) to ensure the system clock is accurate:

# timedatectl set-ntp true

but again I get the same error message

You’re trying to do a lot of things during the installation that might not work well inside a chroot. I suggest you install arch and configure at minimum networking, and then after you boot the real system you proceed with the post installation guide, where you’d install xorg and everything else.

I understand, -though again, all worked last time) except, If I do most of my commands I can boot, but to a blank screen and no network to continue as systemctl enable NetworkManager doesn’t enable my network

That depends a lot on what your GPU is, and what driver you’re using for it. Also, you’re heaving tearing only when playing videos, or on the entire Xorg session?

There are different methods depending on your GPU driver and compositor, e.g.

https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Picom#Fullscreen_tearing

https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Intel_graphics#Tearing

That would indicate you’re trying to use the wrong video driver. Again, this is why you shouldn’t try to do everything within the installation, don’t try to automatically start Xorg if you don’t even know if the configuration is correct.

that I’m fairly sure as very old card, and need to set up the changes that were done some months ago, I could probably get around that if I could just get the network up and running

I’ll keep on trying, it’s only a second setup to play with, I can replug in my main ssd

new install arch in vbox, tor not work https://ibb.co/zXSz2CD

Read what’s on your screen then

Then you should probably need a compositor

it could. Also, what GPU is this?

You shouldn’t have tearing with a nvidia

lspci | grep -e VGA -e 3D -e Display

I want the output

Guys, I can no longer use scrcpy wirelessly, yet until yesterday I could connect and use my mobile phone remotely

scrcpy –tcpip=192.168.****
scrcpy 1.24 <https://github.com/Genymobile/scrcpy>
INFO: Connecting to 192.168.****:****…
failed to connect to ‘192.168.1.****:****’: Connection refused
ERROR: Could not connect to 192.168.1.****:****

Double-check address and port, what android version?

I have already double checked the address and port and my Android version is 7

Try using wired mode once, unplug and try again. I’ve had some issues way back when, but I just rooted the phone and shellscripted away :p

Already done and nothing changes

Do you have adb binary installed? community/android-tools IIRC

If yes, try to adb tcpip [address]

Or adb connect [address]

I have already tried it and the result was “Could not connect to ‘192.168. ***: ***’: Connection refused”

if you explain me why I’m interested.

Can you explain why -Rdd is needed?

-Rdd is for deleting those unused packages or dependencies without deleting others than the list given by -Qqdt

So you’re breaking other package’s dependencies?

normally no, but if pacman only gives me a list of unused packages I want to be sure only those will be deleted

I still don’t understand why -Rdd is needed over -R, or what happens if the orphan package brought in other packages as direct dependencies.
