00:00.30XenguyFTFY : -)
00:02.06devuanewestnot sure where to find it.
00:02.24Xenguydevuanewest: hang on...
00:03.00Xenguyhttps://wiki.debian.org/Sound
00:03.40devuanewestugh, yeah I was on their faq page
00:03.58XenguyThat's good to read too : -)
00:05.18devuanewestbut should there not be a sound settings somewhere in settings at all? I find it remarkable that it is not
00:05.22Xenguyfsmithred: I got my network latency sorted (I'm surprised I didn't do it sooner).  It was a crossover cable that had become long of tooth, so I just replace it with 2 cables and 1 switch

00:05.50Xenguydevuanewest: Not sure, each case can be different often times
00:06.09XenguySound can sometimes be a bit of a Dark Arte
00:06.23XenguyThough usually, in my experience, it Just Works
00:07.20Xenguydevuanewest: The sound settings GUI may not be there due to the packages not being present on your system  <-- 1 possibility
00:07.47devuanewestI used the live 2.0 beta amd64

00:13.56devuanewestI have a /pulse/ in my .config/ directoy  so I guess pulse is installed and present. Just no way of configuring it..
00:14.58Xenguydevuanewest: My best advice is to follow the troubleshooting suggestions on that Wiki page (hopefully the info there is not too dated, but it's been awhile since I visited that page)
00:16.19devuanewestugh, this is too much for tonight. I'll try tomorrow with better eyes. Thanks for the links and suggesitons Xenguy
00:16.49Xenguydevuanewest: Hey I'm sorry...
00:17.04XenguyI just looked at that page, and it's nothing like what I was remembering
00:17.17XenguyNot too useful, unless I'm missing something...

00:18.07devuanewestlooking at those images on how sound works gave me a headache. But, maybe it'll be better tomorrow.
00:18.23XenguyYeah, it's the wrong page, I'll try to find a better one
00:18.50XenguyBut maybe tomorrow

02:51.12devuanewestso, I couldn't get any sleep.. Buut I found out where xfce hid the sound settings
02:51.29devuanewestin multimedia ofcourse.. not in system settings or some such.. : )
02:52.21devuanewestso now sound is sorted out.. Now remains the gui asking for root when using such programs. Like synaptics or gparted
02:52.24fsmithredis xfce mixer there?
02:52.40devuanewestthere is a pulse audio mixer  : )
02:52.42fsmithredI saw your message late, but you can run alsamixer in a terminal
02:52.55fsmithredoh, pulse
02:53.00devuanewestoh, yeah alsamixer is always present and functional
02:53.02fsmithredforgot about that. I don't use it.
02:53.14devuanewestI just wanted a tray icon I could see and use
02:53.43devuanewestI also killed the bell with a small startup script
02:53.49devuanewestI woke my neighbours with it
02:54.10fsmithredwow
02:54.31devuanewestywah, 2 watts my behind.. brutal volume
02:55.59devuanewestI guess I need to do smthng about policykit or such to sort out the elivated programs issue
02:56.10devuanewesthaven't found out what yet
02:56.16fsmithredpkexec does not work in xfce
02:56.33fsmithredopen a terminal, get root, run synaptic or gparted or whatever you need
02:56.48fsmithreduse 'su' not 'su -'
02:56.52devuanewestoh, I see. So that is a limitation in xfce then?
02:57.07fsmithredor edit the desktop file for the apps
02:57.17fsmithredor use gksu
02:58.03devuanewestgksu.. okay I'll check that out.
02:58.21fsmithrednot sure if it's installed
03:00.27devuanewestoh, it was  : )  so it is like a little middle man I guess. It is a matter of where I want to type the root pw. In a term or in a little window
03:01.01fsmithredlol, yes
03:01.35fsmithredyou can edit /usr/share/applications/whatever.desktop
03:01.41fsmithredgo to the Exec line
03:02.09devuanewestyeah I'll do that instead. It'll be for synaptics mostly anyway
03:02.12fsmithredreplace 'whatever-pkexec' with 'gksu whatever'

08:13.30Guest1234Hello everyone. I'm using Debian buster today and I'm thinking about using Devuan instead. The thing I did not get yet is whether devuan "mirrors" (not mirrors) the regular debian releases (with patches ontop) so that I can expect to see them nearly around the time debian releases them. I'd expect that devuan needs to rebuild with its own patches on top, of course. Or is devuan more like a complete separate repository with its own v
08:13.39*** join/#devuan n4dir (~user@200116b86817bf00021a4bfffe4896d9.dip.versatel-1u1.de)
08:17.27Guest1234i.e. are all packages in debian dependent on the non-systemd core, or is it just those that really need it? Could I install packages from a debian APT source that are not dependent on any systemd stuff?
08:17.38Guest1234In case anyone knows..
08:19.33gnarfaceGuest1234: most the packages aren't altered at all.  those packages are actually fed from the debian repos directly.  there's a list of the ones that are altered on devuan.org somewhere.
08:21.59gnarfaceand yes, you could theoretically install packages from debian apt sources as well, but don't do that.  you're right that it would not be safe in that one way you speculate but systemd itself isn't the only risk inherent to mixing distros
08:22.15gnarfacenot be unsafe*
08:23.12gnarfaceanyway, there's no reason to do that because devuan has all the same packages
08:23.19gnarfacewith few exceptions
08:23.55gnarfaceand whether that continues is more up to debian than devuan
08:24.26Guest1234gnarface: Thanks. I see. I'll try to look a bit more on the page - although to be fair I'm having a hard time finding it right now. However, does this mean that there *is* a buster doppelganger repo out there which I can use now already?
08:25.19gnarfaceit's been given a designated name but not set up yet, last i checked
08:25.52gnarfacethere's currently only jessie (jessie), ascii (stretch), and sid (ceres)
08:26.09gnarfacesorry that was confusing i got them swapped
08:26.34gnarfaceit gets more confusing because jessie is still considered devuan stable when it's now debian oldstable
08:26.53*** join/#devuan Besnik_b (~Besnik@ppp-94-66-221-59.home.otenet.gr)
08:26.59gnarfaceascii is in beta now though
08:27.21Guest1234Right. So those releases are not 100% synced/rebuilt automatically between debian and devuan?
08:27.45Guest1234Or it's there, but not public?
08:28.20gnarfacewell they are when they can be, so like, yes, for jessie, and for the fixed packages already in ascii, but some manual patches still do need to be made as you earlier speculated
08:28.23gnarfacethat work can't be automated
08:28.31gnarfaceand still is ongoing
08:28.56gnarfacebut ascii is getting pretty close to finished i think
08:29.03Guest1234nods
08:29.39Guest1234but.. ceres == sid, or ceres == buster?
08:29.45gnarfaceceres == sid
08:29.48*** join/#devuan earthnative (~nemo@59.167.208.146)
08:29.48Guest1234ok
08:30.05gnarfacehttps://devuan.org/os/releases
08:30.21gnarfacebeowulf == buster
08:30.24Guest1234Thanks.
08:30.31gnarfaceit's named, it's just not live yet
08:30.44gnarfacei have no idea what condition it's in either
08:30.57gnarfacejessie and ascii are pretty much fine though if you don't need Gnome
08:31.14gnarfaceceres doesn't seem to suffer from any real problems that sid doesn't also
08:31.35gnarface*that sid doesn't also have
08:32.45gnarfaceas you're on beowulf i can't give you any good advice what to do with it
08:33.13gnarfaceyou'd be able to upgrade to ceres but i don't tell you that would be a net positive
08:33.24gnarfacebeowulf/buster i mean
08:33.37gnarfacesorry i gotta stop doing that, i know it's confusing
08:33.50gnarfacethere are jessie live images though
08:33.56gnarfaceand some beta ascii installer out there
08:34.07*** join/#devuan athidhep (~eafaef@unaffiliated/athidhep)
08:34.26gnarfaceit might be worth it for you to try them out in a VM or on a spare harddrive or partition or something
08:34.36Guest1234Yeah, no, the buster release is the gold version for me. I wouldn't downgrade to stretch. And sid is just too unstable..
08:35.04gnarfaceyea i don't blame you
08:35.08Guest1234I already got the ascii thing in a qemu variant, mostly thinking if I should reinstall my real system with it
08:35.22Guest1234I guess I'll need to wait for beowulf
08:35.34gnarfacebut when the beowulf repo is set up you'll be able to cleanly crossgrade to it i think
08:35.38gnarfacethat's the theory anyway
08:35.55Guest1234that sounds interesting indeed.. any links for that?
08:36.09gnarface<PROTECTED>
08:36.13Guest1234sure
08:36.16gnarfacei imagine you'd have to get on the mailing list
08:37.03gnarfacehttps://devuan.org/os/community there's also a forum linked from here
08:37.09gnarfaceand some other related irc channels
08:48.09Guest1234Thanks for all the help. Talk to you later!

10:07.34checkulater1when reaching the part about selecting a mirror for package manager it fails

10:13.07KatolaZok
10:13.11KatolaZyou can also use deb.devuan.org
10:13.14KatolaZit's a RR
10:13.19checkulater1ok
10:13.26checkulater1thanks
10:15.45checkulater1BUT now im trying some stuff out searching for a new distro whilst learning new stuff. im following the guide https://devuan.org/os/documentation/dev1fanboy/jessie-minimal-install and when trying to debootstrap i get an error saying "error executing gpgv to check release signature"
10:17.47KatolaZcheckulater1: you need to specify the keyring to use
10:18.03checkulater1ok how can i do this
10:18.04checkulater1?
10:18.26KatolaZand you should use devuan-archive-keyring.gpg
10:18.28checkulater1sorry if im having stupid questions
10:18.35KatolaZwhich is in /usr/share/keyrings
10:18.42KatolaZcheckulater1: man debootstrap
10:18.57KatolaZ(I don't want to be harsh, but you mentioned you are willing to learn... :))
10:20.00checkulater1seems i have no man for debootstrap will check online
10:20.12checkulater1thank you.
10:20.34KatolaZuh?
10:20.47KatolaZhow comes you have no man for debootstrap?!?
10:21.01checkulater1~$ man debootstrap
10:21.01checkulater1No manual entry for debootstrap
10:21.18checkulater1don't actually know
10:21.31KatolaZis debootstrap installed?
10:21.54checkulater1neither on my installed system or the net minimal install iso
10:21.59checkulater1yes

12:58.39Gargravarrhi gents, has something broken APT sources for the OpenJDK v8?
12:59.19Gargravarri tried my internal mirror and the dependency chain was broken, then tried the official mirror and jdk8 isn't found at all
12:59.53gnarfacesame result from pkgmaster.devuan.org?
13:00.33Gargravarrgnarface: yes
13:00.51Gargravarroh, waitaminute
13:01.36KatolaZGargravarr: ?
13:01.43Gargravarrokay, so still have the broken dependencies
13:01.46KatolaZdefine "broken"
13:02.06Gargravarrthe not-showing-at-all issue is now fixed, i was using /devuan (my internal) instead of /merged

13:02.44Gargravarrthis is from pkgmaster.devuan.org
13:02.50KatolaZare you on ascii?
13:02.54Gargravarrno, Jessie
13:03.32KatolaZthe package you need is in backports
13:03.41KatolaZhttp://info.devuan.mine.nu/cgi-bin/d1pkgweb-query?search=ca-certificates&release=jessie
13:03.54Gargravarri have backports defined as a deb source
13:04.10KatolaZapt-cache policy ca-certificates-java
13:04.26KatolaZthis is not sufficient Gargravarr
13:04.42KatolaZsince deps from backports are not satisfied automatically by apt-get
13:04.43Gargravarrokay
13:04.47KatolaZ(well, it depends)
13:04.51Gargravarri was not aware of that
13:05.01KatolaZapt-cache policy ca-certificates-java
13:05.17Gargravarryeah, it does show the necessary package from backports
13:05.47Gargravarryou do -t jessie-backports or something to tell APT to use a specific source iirc
13:05.51KatolaZyep
13:06.32Gargravarryep, that did the trick, thanks KatolaZ
13:06.40KatolaZnp Gargravarr
13:07.09KatolaZ(and btw, before thinking that "someone broke something", assume always that stable is never broken ;))
13:08.00Gargravarrany reason why this dependency knot exists? the root openjdk-8-jre package exists only in backports, isn't APT smart enough to pull all necessary dependencies from there?
13:08.08KatolaZno Gargravarr
13:08.12KatolaZand rightly so
13:09.00KatolaZbecause otherwise you will pull everything from backports at your first apt-get upgrade
13:09.13KatolaZbackports is meant to be used selectively
13:09.21Gargravarri see
13:09.54KatolaZbbl
13:10.29Gargravarrthanks for the tips, i'll use apt-cache policy next time this happens
13:10.49Gargravarrbtw, any idea when ascii is due for release?
13:11.28KatolaZGargravarr: ascii beta is already out :)
13:11.39KatolaZreleased on the 14th
13:12.32Gargravarri know the Beta is already out, i'm running it at home on my media server
13:12.44Gargravarrstill running Jessie on my company VMs
13:13.19Gargravarrjust wondering what the timescale for the stable release is
13:13.22KatolaZGargravarr: we need to iron out a few things
13:13.36KatolaZmainly for desktops though
13:13.48KatolaZnothing major will probably change for server users
13:14.07Gargravarri tested upgrading to the beta on one of my VMs and it completely bricked it, would not boot
13:14.15KatolaZuh?
13:14.17Gargravarrso i'm holding off for now
13:14.17KatolaZdesktop?
13:14.22Gargravarrno, headless server
13:14.23KatolaZplease report
13:14.30KatolaZupgrading from what?
13:14.34Gargravarrfrom Jessie
13:14.41Gargravarr*Devuan Jessie
13:14.47KatolaZquite strange (if not impossible)
13:14.55KatolaZI have upgraded about 60 servers that way
13:15.00Gargravarrall these VMs have been fresh installed from the ISO and then cloned
13:15.13Gargravarryeah, i was surprised, my media server at home upgraded without a hitch
13:15.17KatolaZagain, a bug report with relevant information would be useful
13:15.24Gargravarrall these VMs are on KVM on a Devuan Jessie host
13:15.32Gargravarrthanks, i'll see what i can put together
13:15.36KatolaZGargravarr: thanks
13:15.36gnarfacei suspect it is something to do with the vm, maybe the way you're doing storage
13:15.50Gargravarrpretty standard, QCOW2 disk images
13:15.57KatolaZGargravarr: does the VM uses a boot loader or an external kernel?
13:16.19Gargravarrboot loader in the VHD
13:16.25KatolaZvery strange
13:16.31Gargravarrall the VMs are self-contained
13:16.39KatolaZagain, no problems reported on that front
13:16.54KatolaZif you could investigate the issue, it would be useful
13:17.03KatolaZto have a bugreport
13:18.41Gargravarri'll have to try the upgrade again, but sure
13:18.48Gargravarrhad to restore that VM from a backup
13:18.57Gargravarri'll do it on a dummy

13:25.28espectalllI'm new to Devuan and I have a problem with the installer, may I ask here?
13:25.43Gargravarrask away
13:25.58espectalllthx
13:26.08espectalllso I'm trying to install Devuan Ceres
13:26.39espectalllI picked up `mini.iso` at https://auto.mirror.devuan.org/merged/dists/jessie/main/installer-amd64/current/images/netboot/gtk/mini.iso
13:26.48Gargravarryou might be getting a bit ahead of yourself if you're new to it, Jessie is the current stable
13:26.57Gargravarrah yes, that's Jessie, not Ceres
13:27.10espectalllI don't want stable, thanks
13:27.14espectalllOK, so here's the thing
13:27.27espectalllthat image does install Ceres
13:27.40espectalllI picked it up at the "select mirror" step
13:27.53espectalllthat's not the problem
13:28.16espectalllthe problem seems to be that it doesn't have ext support???
13:28.57fsmithredwhat error message are you getting?
13:29.01espectalllso, I go to the partitioning step
13:29.04espectalllI use guided partitioning

13:51.59espectalll-2just to make GNOME work on their GNU/Linux
13:52.08fsmithredelogind is in ascii and seems to be working
13:52.19espectalll-2fsmithred: yeah, that's the thing
13:52.31espectalll-2I didn't understand what was the problem with "seceding from GNU"
13:52.37espectalll-2because it still should work
13:53.00fsmithredyeah, they just seem to heading off in another direction from where we've all been going for the last 20 years or so

13:55.30fsmithredyeah, I've heard of people running gnome without systemd

13:56.35espectalll-2no Systemd, just runit
13:56.41fsmithredok
13:56.47fsmithredI believe you
13:57.03espectalll-2the only thing that fails is that you cannot setup GDM options from the control center
13:57.08espectalll-2like language
13:57.20espectalll-2and that there is no Systemd NTP service
13:57.25fsmithredI think around half the devuan devs don't run a destkop and don't care
13:57.30espectalll-2yeah, makes sense
13:57.44espectalll-2but I wanted to check regardless
13:58.09fsmithredanyone is welcome to fork gnome and maintain it for devuan
13:58.16espectalll-2lol
13:58.23fsmithredas long as they are willing to maintain
13:58.46espectalll-2yeah, I can't keep up with maintaining, I tried on Void and I'm still bad at it
13:59.06espectalll-2so guess Devuan won't be for me
13:59.22fsmithrednot if you need gnome
13:59.40espectalll-2sorry, that's just the desktop and framework I work with
14:00.03espectalll-2I'll have to try and see if Debian can somehow do the trick with OpenRC or something, I know this project exists for a reason but who knows (?)

18:52.02JackWintermmaglis: do eudev work more or less the same?  i wrote a set of rules that run a script when a soundcard is inserted or removed.  but due to systemd i couldn't just run the bash script directly and needed to use systemd-run instead, but i'd still like to at the least leave a comment in the rules file to show what to do on a non systemd system
18:52.49freem|2JackWinter: eudev is a fork of udev, originally made by gentoo's people, so it probably works almost the same, except for systemd-related stuff. At least, IIRC.

19:33.29fsmithredthere's a situation where you can't *start* pulseaudio???
19:33.42fsmithredMost people complain that they can't stop it. It refuses to die.
19:34.06h0rs35f0gI can kill it without problems
19:34.11fsmithreddoes PA have an init script?
19:34.39fsmithredI forget what keeps it alive

20:16.31fsmithredsome people actually use it
20:16.33h0rs35f0gmaybe at KDE ?
20:16.48h0rs35f0gI am not sure if i am using it
20:17.01fsmithredh0rs35f0g, I don't know. I just always use alsa.
20:17.21h0rs35f0gits pretty useful tu use shortcuts / hotkeys for increasing and decreasing volume
20:17.28h0rs35f0gi will give a try removing it
20:17.31fsmithredbut you might have trouble removing it, if it was installed by a big metapackage
20:17.47IrrwahnSome applications require pulseaudio, though in some of those cases apulse was reported to work around that.
20:17.55fsmithredskype
20:17.59h0rs35f0gits seems to be related to plasma
20:18.02IrrwahnFor example, yes.
20:18.05h0rs35f0gplasma-pa* package
20:18.19fsmithredit doesn't want to remove your entire desktop?
20:18.25h0rs35f0gwell at least is working
20:18.48h0rs35f0gits only at the time for restart that doesnt work so can be a pain in the ass ... once per year
20:21.03h0rs35f0gtime for the 34252135 reboot of today :)

20:23.32carlieIs there someone in here who handles press inquiries? I'm from Linux Journal and want to talk to someone about an article for LJ.
20:23.39Irrwahngolinux: Pulsing icons, pulsing audio. :P
20:25.21golinuxswoons and goes into a fit
20:25.22fsmithredcarlie, maybe you should talk to jaromil
20:25.30carlieok cool, thanks
20:26.22fsmithredstay logged in and there's a good chance he'll notice this

20:26.33h0rs35f0gI will keep with my personal interview / round of questions fsmithred
20:26.55h0rs35f0gwhat do you think of Wayland
20:27.05fsmithredI know almost nothing about it
20:27.13h0rs35f0gallright
20:27.32fsmithredI'm still trying to figure out X
20:27.37h0rs35f0gI am interested in the project of moving i3 WM to wayland
20:27.45h0rs35f0gX is such a pain in the ass
20:28.06h0rs35f0gI really Think it will be the future of most of the systems
20:28.08fsmithredI know there are i3 users in devuan community
20:28.10h0rs35f0gspecially Tablets
20:28.41h0rs35f0gresizing windows with the finger can be such a gorgeus thing
20:29.03fsmithredyeah, that makes sense
20:31.00h0rs35f0gthe project is called sway
