@ricklinux
See my previous post, the EDIT.

Sorry i missed that.

[rick@endeavour-os ~]$ sudo pacman-key --lsign-key  "key name"
[sudo] password for rick: 
  -> Locally signing key key name...
==> ERROR: key name could not be locally signed.
[rick@endeavour-os ~]$
24

But replace “key name” with EndeavourOS …

25

Do i leave the " around the name?

26

Doesn’t matter.

Thanks@manuel. I guess the keys needed updating for endevouros repo?

28

Yes, that’s the public key of the endeavouros repo.

29

So that doesn’t get updated when i reset the keys?

30

Not sure, maybe @fernandomaroto can tell more about that.
But I think installing (or re-installing) package endeavouros-keyring would do that.

31

I didn’t do that i just reinstalled the Arch keys. So this package is in the endeavouros repo. Makes sense.

32

@manuel I have installed the oes-update-notifier and i am getting this error coming up after the welcome screen.

[rick@endeavour-os ~]$ systemctl --user status eos-update-notifier.timer
Unit eos-update-notifier.timer could not be found.
[rick@endeavour-os ~]$

I think you must:

systemctl --user enable eos-update-notifier.timer
and
systemctl --user start eos-update-notifier.timer

34

Both say the timer doesn’t exist? I just reinstalled it after removing and i get the same thing.
Edit: it also worked right away on my other computer with Xfce. This one is Cinnamon desktop.

35

Maybe it doesn´t run on Cinnamon :thinking:
Have you checked the dependencies, what you need: bash, yad, welcome and xdg-utils.

I´m on Xfce, i can´t speak for Cinnamon.
Maybe there are other Cinnamon user, who can help you.

36

The welcome screen works, so i have yad an xdg-utils also? I think it’s something else. I did go into startup programs and i saw kalu startup was still there even after i uninstalled kalu so i removed that. I’m not sure now?

37

Did you reboot after installing?
Actually, after installing eos-update-notifier, also a re-login helps.

EDIT: I installed it into Cinnamon and it works as expected.

38

So:

  1. Delete Kalu
  2. Update
  3. Install eos-update-notifier
  4. Enable eos-update-notifier

Correct?

39
  1. Logout and login (or reboot)

Separate “enabling” is not required, only re-login is needed.

40

Are there people from America/Canada who receive an error 404 in the terminal whilst tring to install eos-update-notifier?

41

Is there a mirror problem?
