13:24.30 | blop | found the packages on the live dvd and am installing |
13:28.03 | blop | not sure how to create an efi for devuan. i can access /boot/efi/EFI and see the previous ones |
13:28.31 | blop | need the bootx64.efi for devuan |
13:31.25 | fsmithred | blop, is "uefi" in the filename of the iso? |
13:31.28 | KatolaZ | blop: there are already DVD images for EFI |
13:31.36 | KatolaZ | there you go :) |
13:31.42 | blop | no it isn't in the iso :/ |
13:31.50 | KatolaZ | blop: wrong iso then |
13:31.54 | fsmithred | can still fix it if you can connect to internet |
13:32.23 | blop | i can ifup eth0 and the route looks good, but no pings |
13:32.23 | fsmithred | apt-get install grub-efi-amd64 |
13:32.54 | blop | oh cool, i can mount the image on /media/cdrom |
13:32.56 | KatolaZ | blop: is it in a VM? |
13:33.44 | blop | no |
13:34.19 | blop | is there a default wifi/network manager? didn't see one in the menu |
13:34.21 | fsmithred | blop, you tried pinging a number instead of a name? |
13:34.27 | fsmithred | wicd |
13:34.27 | blop | yes tried pinging the router |
13:34.50 | fsmithred | maybe 'dhclient eth0' would work better? That's just a guess. |
13:35.15 | fsmithred | what's in /etc/resolv.conf? |
13:35.52 | fsmithred | I usually just have the router address in that file |
13:36.20 | blop | apt-get install grub-efi-amd64 succeeded |
13:36.37 | fsmithred | oh! so you are online. |
13:36.42 | blop | resolv.conf has my router as nameserver |
13:37.02 | blop | i am not online - it installed from installation media mounted on /media/cdrom |
13:37.05 | fsmithred | it should pull in everything you need. just run 'grub-install' and 'update-grub' |
13:37.14 | fsmithred | oh |
13:37.17 | blop | well at least i can't ping |
13:37.45 | blop | looks good |

13:42.38 | fsmithred | you can check the error log - should be in user's home |
13:42.55 | fsmithred | but probably just contains stupid gtk errors |
13:43.24 | blop | i used non-gui install |
13:43.37 | fsmithred | that's ok |

15:17.08 | fsmithred | ok, it will format the partition unless you selected "no format" |
15:17.13 | blop | nice this partition list thing |
15:17.29 | fsmithred | glad you like it |
15:17.56 | blop | summary says pre-install scripts are disabled. is that right? |
15:18.04 | blop | post-install scripts are enabled |
15:18.19 | fsmithred | pre-install scripts are for locale and tzdata settings |
15:18.26 | blop | ok i can do that later |
15:18.47 | fsmithred | postinstall removes the installer icon from the desktop, but I didn't put one there, so it won't do anything. |
15:19.35 | fsmithred | damn, I should not have left the pre-install scripts disabled. I must have set that in the config file, because I was testing with the cli installer |
15:21.17 | blop | if i don't run 'Install bootloader' then grub2 won't know about the new devuan uefi stuff, right? |
15:21.39 | blop | reinstalling bootloader /should/ find the existing partitions, no? |
15:21.48 | fsmithred | if you don't run that, then 'grub-install' and 'update-grub' won't run |
15:22.11 | blop | well i don't care about the other os's :) so no harm can be done |
15:22.11 | fsmithred | if you have another linux installed, you can boot into that one, run update-grub, and the new install should get added to the boot menu |

15:22.29 | fsmithred | sounds like you should install the bootloader |
15:22.40 | fsmithred | it should find the old linux and add it to menu |
15:22.45 | blop | yeah ok ty |
15:23.24 | fsmithred | if you don't like it, you can later run efibootmgr and delete the first bootloader |
15:23.38 | fsmithred | previous one should be next in line |

15:26.03 | blop | on reboot |
15:26.06 | fsmithred | if you want to enable the logout in the panel, you can set it to use one of two scripts found in /usr/local/bin |

15:56.56 | DocScrutinizer05 | fromport: hehe nice |
15:59.15 | DocScrutinizer05 | for the "it's easier and faster to write znit files for systemd than to write sysv initscripts" I have my own answer: I can save 10s in typing with unit files, but only after 6h of study how to achieve that. And alas the knowledge learned from systemd unitfile study doesn't stick to my brain so the expense/savings ratio is every time the same |

16:02.35 | gnarface | also it's probably worth mentioning that if a sysvinit script is that much of an intellectual burden to you, maybe you need to study more. |
16:02.52 | DocScrutinizer05 | indeed |
16:03.30 | DocScrutinizer05 | very much unlike unit files, sysvinit files are self explabatory to every moderately educated sysop |
16:04.04 | DocScrutinizer05 | and don't get me started on debugging (options) - but I guess this whole rant is OT in here |
16:04.40 | Walex | DocScrutinizer05: that's a bit optimistic -- many shell scripts are pretty poorly written; bvut the unit file "scripting language" basically forces one to write poor scripts :-) |
16:07.05 | fromport | i used to work with miquels (author sysvinit on linux) and he is a real genius in writing scripts ;-) |

16:08.35 | Walex | fromport: many thanks! :-) |
16:09.28 | Walex | one of the tragedies of Debian/Debuan is that some pre/port shell script for packages are colossal and spaghetti-like. I think the longest is around 2,000 lines long |
16:09.40 | DocScrutinizer05 | writing *good* shellscripts is a an art not everybody can master |
16:09.49 | fromport | miquels wrote games for zx81/spectrum back in the days. you had to be fairly creative to make something work back then ;-) |

16:11.35 | Walex | fromport: on the other hand I knew a guy who implemented a Lisp interpreter on a 64KiB z80 system and had such a rich set of data type operations (including rational complex numbers on an 8-bit machine) that the largest program it could run was around 50-100 lines long |

16:13.01 | DocScrutinizer05 | ugh |
16:13.40 | DocScrutinizer05 | it wasn't before 386 that I actually installed a linux on a system. Amiga lacked MMU |
16:13.59 | fromport | started with 6809 with flex and later uniflex ;-) |
16:14.22 | fromport | on home made hardware |
16:14.26 | DocScrutinizer05 | I pondered porting minix to my amiga1000 |
16:14.58 | DocScrutinizer05 | my homegrows stuff never seen anything but Z80 hex codes |
16:15.26 | DocScrutinizer05 | had a 1kB "NASMON" iirc |

16:19.12 | fromport | we bought uniflex with 5 people together since i/we couldn't afford a legal copy back then |
16:21.14 | Walex | fromport: the earlier price list must be from end 1989/beginning 1990 because that's when I upgraded to 32 bit ESIX (Microport V.2 was 16-bit for 286s and had virtual memory and worked pretty well). |
16:21.31 | DocScrutinizer05 | a real pity though dates later: never got around to actually buying a NeXT cube, and even lost the excellent manuals I had bought |
16:23.36 | Walex | I wonder sometimes where all the people who did pretty good stuff like Microport or ESIX are now -- I hope they are earning well at google or somewhere like that. |
16:24.13 | DocScrutinizer05 | pondered applying at Google, a week ago |
16:25.31 | Walex | my impression is that of course Google is non-discriminatory, buthe somehow that people over 35-40 very rarely get hired |
16:25.58 | DocScrutinizer05 | :nod: |
16:26.07 | fromport | miquels (author sysvinit) declined job at google. i think he still regrets that. but we did get to write/adept sysvinit with serial console and were mentioned on the frontpage of nasa. they needed serial console support to boot a computer shot into space so we wrote it ;-) |

17:27.59 | KatolaZ | blop: that's correct |

21:09.50 | _abc_ | Major distribution stops going the way of wayland |
21:11.00 | _abc_ | The way I see it, politically, rh was digging itself into future sales with wayland and some poettering emanations, making linux hosts much less remote-friendly. |
21:11.41 | fsmithred | omg, I could get in trouble with that release name |
21:12.02 | _abc_ | Look, it's not susanwaylandclub.com <nsfw>, right? |
21:13.11 | _abc_ | fsmithred: maybe I misunderstood, which release name? |
21:13.17 | _abc_ | bionic beaver? |
21:13.53 | _abc_ | on topic: in devuan jessie, is it safe-ish to switch to another window manager from the default? |
21:14.14 | fsmithred | yes, I think you understood |
21:14.32 | _abc_ | <cough> which one. The beaver or the wayland... susan... |
21:14.34 | fsmithred | you can install as many window managers and desktop environments as you want |
21:14.39 | fsmithred | as long as you don't want gnome |
21:15.02 | _abc_ | Okay, noted. kde is in there somewhere? kde4 is grotty but the current default window manager could use some minor polish |
21:15.10 | merzbow | openbox works fine, and is very light |
21:15.23 | _abc_ | I would like usable with few surprises. Light is not important |
21:15.41 | fsmithred | kde in jessie (I think) has some problems |
21:15.43 | _abc_ | Specifically, things like pressing the power button shortly means I really want it to shutdown, not ask me if I wanna. |
21:15.55 | _abc_ | Okay, so no kde. We'll find something more configurable |
21:15.58 | fsmithred | kde5 in ascii seems ok (with elogind) but I haven't used it much |
21:16.11 | fsmithred | and tde will install in jessie and work |
21:16.15 | _abc_ | Did you ever build the default wm for jessie from source on jessie? |
21:16.28 | fsmithred | no, I haven't build any wm |
21:16.44 | fsmithred | there are so many to choose from |
21:16.47 | _abc_ | this tde? |
21:16.49 | _abc_ | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trinity_Desktop_Environment |
21:16.53 | fsmithred | yes |
21:16.59 | _abc_ | is it in the package list? |
21:17.01 | fsmithred | fork of kde3.5 |
21:17.15 | fsmithred | no, go to trinity and follow directions for devuan |
21:17.18 | fsmithred | yes, devuan |
21:17.20 | _abc_ | ok |
21:17.33 | _abc_ | Oh, they have instructions for devuan? Respect. |
21:22.52 | fsmithred | S. Wayland is pretty tame. You must have a very strict workplace. |
21:24.31 | _abc_ | It's not from work, I stumbled into that place a long time ago, remebered (can't unsee) it |
21:24.49 | _abc_ | https://simson.net/ref/ugh.pdf fun, 360 pages of unix hater's handbook, it keeps growing. |
21:26.30 | _abc_ | The X humor begins at ~pp 161 |
21:27.25 | MinceR | wow, canonical doing actual work? |
21:27.41 | MinceR | or did they get some suckers at debian to maintain it for them? :> |
21:28.23 | _abc_ | MinceR: I think some ceo political type got fed up of not being able to access his work pc from a tablet while in a business "trip" with palm trees context |
21:28.28 | MinceR | :> |
21:28.43 | MinceR | if only all that energy was invested into making a better windowing system instead of randing in that book :> |
21:29.32 | _abc_ | MinceR: the good news is that, once Wayland is waylaid, that book of gripes will be all they have left. Xorg works fine, not without bugs and the occasional kick in the back side, but it works. |
21:30.45 | _abc_ | See stupidity pp 187 'Shell crash' -- wow did that guy get things wrong. |
21:31.13 | _abc_ | I think you don't even need to craft a fork bomb into cmd.exe, it just happens naturally as a part of normal operations |
21:31.31 | MinceR | why do they even use csh in the first place? |
21:31.48 | _abc_ | Because they can't crash the other shells for demo purposes? |
21:31.57 | MinceR | lol |
21:32.24 | MinceR | i guess they boot into windows after they're done bashing unix, then |
21:32.47 | _abc_ | That being said, :(){:;};: is an evergreen in bash. I don't think it's right as I wrote it there |
21:32.58 | _abc_ | MinceR: *if* they can |

23:14.17 | KatolaZ | apt-cache policy xpra |
23:16.04 | fsmithred | is aptitude installed? |
23:16.46 | fsmithred | and can you copy/paste a command I give you? |
23:18.08 | ibanja_ | ok... thanks, apt-cache policy gave a huge list of options which told me it's not back-ports... It is a debian repo from xpra... I disabled it, now it installs |
23:18.24 | KatolaZ | .... |
23:18.26 | KatolaZ | :) |
23:18.52 | ibanja_ | The repo works on my ascii install, but not on this jessie install. Interesting. |
23:18.53 | KatolaZ | ibanja_: one thing is almost sure in De??an: that the repos of a stable/oldstable distro are always consistent |
23:19.01 | KatolaZ | :) |
23:19.14 | fsmithred | yeah, debian stable is same as ascii, not jessie |
23:19.27 | TomTheDragon | What build system does Devuan use? Is it the same as Debian, the wanna-build/sbuild/etc? |
23:19.35 | KatolaZ | no TomTheDragon |
23:19.42 | KatolaZ | we have a ci based on jenkins |
23:19.52 | ibanja_ | OK, that makes sense... |
23:20.15 | TomTheDragon | KatolaZ: hmm, interesting... Am trying to decide whether to track Debian or Devuan with a 486/586 port. |
23:21.34 | KatolaZ | TomTheDragon: Debian abandoned 586 long ago... |
23:21.42 | TomTheDragon | KatolaZ: I think in 2016 |
23:22.01 | KatolaZ | oh, it looked more remote ;) |
23:22.14 | TomTheDragon | But the baseline bump actually happens in stretch, keyed on the release name in the gcc rules file. |
23:22.44 | TomTheDragon | 486 fell out of support a long while ago, but likely due to no tests. I only have 586 box to test with ;) |
23:23.28 | KatolaZ | I still must have a 486 board somewhere, but it's not in working order I guess :D |
23:24.37 | TomTheDragon | ah, I see... it's keyed on the debian release in an inverse way |
23:25.07 | TomTheDragon | if the release is etch, lenny it's 486. if squeeze, wheezy, or jessie, it's i586. else it's i686 |
23:26.12 | TomTheDragon | and debian, is on an else block of "Ubuntu"... so Devuan would be treated as debian (unless the source was changed) |

23:28.37 | TomTheDragon | KatolaZ: It's not really an issue unless you want to avoid bumping the baseline |
23:28.58 | KatolaZ | TomTheDragon: I guess I am not following |
23:29.58 | TomTheDragon | I'm not entirely sure what you meant by not forking gcc |
23:30.54 | ibanja_ | KatolaZ: concerning the xpra repo. How likely am I to run into a problem when using an xpra debian-stretch repo with devuan-ascii? |
23:31.08 | KatolaZ | ibanja_: who knows? |
23:31.09 | KatolaZ | :) |
23:31.09 | TomTheDragon | And I was basically saying it doesn't really matter... after jessie (in debian) the gcc rules specify i686 architecture. So it doesn't really matter. |
23:31.32 | ibanja_ | :) right |
23:31.34 | KatolaZ | ibanja_: in theory it's not a good idea to mix devuan and debian repos |
23:31.50 | KatolaZ | in practice, if you are sure that that repo includes only xpra packages |
23:31.54 | KatolaZ | and nothing else |
23:31.59 | KatolaZ | then you should be able to use it |
23:32.25 | KatolaZ | unless xpra (that I don't have a clue what is) wants systemd-related stuff |
23:32.40 | *** join/#devuan IoFran (~Thunderbi@189.231.114.2) |
23:33.10 | ibanja_ | right... I guess it's a matter of checking out the package and the dependencies it needs and taking a shot. |
23:33.11 | ibanja_ | thnks |
23:33.29 | TomTheDragon | basically some kind of desktop forwarding. |
23:33.38 | KatolaZ | ibanja_: I would in any case pin external repos to 100 |
23:34.11 | Criggie | abc: totally - when I restored my user homedir I got twm back. Works perfectly for me |
23:35.45 | TomTheDragon | twm? I remember I used to use that. |
23:35.55 | ibanja_ | good point, pinning... BTW xpra is used to run X programs from a remote machine. The dependencies seem to be a lot of python modules. I don't think it will have any systemd-less issues, but time will tell. . |
23:36.13 | KatolaZ | thanks ibanja_ |
23:36.27 | KatolaZ | :) |
23:36.32 | KatolaZ | I have learned something |
23:36.55 | ibanja_ | Me too... I think using --no-install-recommends and pinning would cut down on possibility of issues. |
23:36.56 | KatolaZ | (btw, ssh -X should be enough for that, right?) |
23:37.17 | KatolaZ | (I mean for running remote X applications...) |
23:37.48 | ibanja_ | yes ssh -X works well, but xpra can be used to forward a whole session. |
23:37.53 | TomTheDragon | You don't want to use it just for running remote applications, really. |
23:38.20 | TomTheDragon | But if you want persistent remote applications, and access them from various machines like GNU screen for pty, it can be useful |
23:38.48 | TomTheDragon | (for me, I really only care about keeping things like servers, etc running, which are either daemons or in screen sessions) |
23:38.52 | ibanja_ | I am trying to set up s computer for a conference type situation that I can control from my desktop and this allows that as well. |
23:39.52 | ibanja_ | I mean control a desktop from my laptop. |

23:51.50 | TomTheDragon | with say, alternative configuration of a few packages |
23:52.10 | KatolaZ | TomTheDragon: it's not sraightforward |
23:52.23 | KatolaZ | the problem is not just jenkins |
23:52.28 | TomTheDragon | ah, so just as straightforward as Debian |
23:52.29 | KatolaZ | but the dak install behind it |
23:53.02 | KatolaZ | which is a bit of a hairball |
23:53.23 | TomTheDragon | yep, as I've heard. I've kind of avoided dak for my experimentation, though I'm trying to rebuild debian itself |

23:57.29 | TomTheDragon | On 586, 3.5 (TDE) is almost passable |

23:59.03 | KatolaZ | ascii has 52K+ |
23:59.17 | KatolaZ | source packages are in the region of 30K, IIRC |
23:59.32 | TomTheDragon | Yeah, a lot of packages (though not sure how many are noarch) |
23:59.44 | KatolaZ | you mean "all" |
23:59.54 | TomTheDragon | yeah, all. not any. |
