| 09:14.33 | rad | Hello. I'm on Beowulf with an encrypted / partition and my Grub is unable to load the custom Devuan style, and it shows up as the standard blue grub menu. It also complains about being unable to load a specific disk before it even goes to the grub menu (and it delays the startup by doing so). When it complains it mentions a partition by UUID which I grepped for and I found it multiple times in /boot/grub/grub.cfg. Any ideas how I could edit that file? The file |
| 09:14.34 | rad | says it's made from files in /etc but grepping in /etc for the same partition UUID finds nothing. |
| 09:15.32 | rad | (btw this is a fresh install using the graphical installer) |
| 09:21.58 | xrogaan | rad: Have you researched debian related issues? Encryption isn't something specific to devuan. |
| 09:22.16 | xrogaan | My guess is that it's a debian problem. |
| 09:23.20 | rad | I will do that then. I thought that it seemed like an installer specific problem, maybe it set grub incorrectly up.. |
| 09:23.33 | xrogaan | I don't encrypt my system, mostly because I used the same /home partition since early 2000. Encryption would require me to take the time to backup then restore my stuff. |
| 09:24.24 | xrogaan | Ah, perhaps. Wouldn't hurt to look if other people have that kind of issue with pure debian first though. |
| 09:26.57 | rad | ok I need to go for a reboot to try and take a photo of the message so that I can properly search for it. :-) bbl. |
| 09:27.02 | gnarface | rad: the live installer is a different animal than the netinstall one |
| 09:27.41 | gnarface | ...well he's gone but i think that grub issue might be fixable by installing some package and running grub-install or update-grub again |
| 09:28.03 | gnarface | something like that, it wasn't a complicated thing |

| 15:26.22 | gour | hello, i moved from ceres to chiamera and plan to stay on the stable in the future which i did ot do for quite some time, but wonder what do you use to regularly check whether there are some system updates available? when using unstable i was simply manually doing 'apt update', but when one is on stable it defeats the purpose to spend time doing it. |
| 15:27.49 | gnarface | well i still think that manual updates are the best way to go, even on stable, but there's an unattended-updates package |
| 15:28.12 | gnarface | oh it's called unattended-upgrades actually |
| 15:28.43 | onefang | To just check if updates are available I run a daily cron job that does this - apt-get update >/dev/null; apt-get upgrade --assume-no -q |
| 15:28.58 | gnarface | ...or you could do that |
| 15:29.22 | gour | well, i don't mind doing manual 'upgrade', but would like to be automatically informed when something is due |
| 15:29.39 | gour | onefang: ahh, that is better option |
| 15:29.40 | onefang | That sends me an email daily. |

| 15:48.20 | gnarface | pkginfo.devuan.org |
| 15:48.45 | user____ | I see the latest on openscad.org is openscad-2021.01.src.tar.gz |
| 15:49.26 | gnarface | the version in use is set by debian |
| 15:49.42 | user____ | Beowulf has 2019.01 which is 2 versions back. There's 2019.05 then 2021.01 |

| 15:50.45 | user____ | https://pkginfo.devuan.org/cgi-bin/policy-query.html?c=package&q=openscad so the latest is in unstable |
| 15:50.55 | gnarface | if their tarball has a ./debian/ directory you can build a package out of it with dpkg-buildpackage |
| 15:51.19 | user____ | Is it "unsafe" to install the unstable package on beowulf? |
| 15:51.28 | gnarface | probably |
| 15:51.43 | user____ | Hm. What could break? |
| 15:51.55 | gnarface | your next update |
| 15:52.05 | gnarface | of the entire system |
| 15:52.18 | user____ | Yeah that will be an update to chimaera and I could deinstall it manually before that. |
| 15:52.24 | gnarface | if it is a popular package maybe someone already put one in beowulf-backports |
| 15:52.47 | gnarface | the problem is when you install it, it may pull in other packages from unstable too, then you have a mess |
| 15:52.47 | user____ | i have beowulf-backports in the sources.list, will look. |
| 15:53.06 | gnarface | and also just the build version mismatches may create run-time crashes |

| 19:00.04 | Korgi | Hello, new Devuan user here. I was attempting to install Devuan for the for time lastnight, using the "Chimera" installer .iso but ran into a bit of a hickup. After inputting my preffered language and keyboard layout I got another window saying that my system required some non-free firmware and asked me to insert media with the firmware files to |
| 19:00.05 | Korgi | continue. The majority of said non-free firmware seems to have been related to wifi, wich I definately need to run in order to have internet access since I don't have a wired connection to my router. I was told that you guys have been dealing with this issue recently, and was directed to join here and ask about it. I was also told that one of the |
| 19:00.05 | Korgi | "refacta experimental iso's" may work better for me, so if someone has a link and thinks it would help I would definately be willing to give it a shot. |
| 19:00.18 | walex | rad: 'tasksel' is designed to do root setup, not pick-and-choose deinstallation. |
| 19:00.50 | walex | rad: use Aptitude to do pick-and-choose deinstallation including of redundant packages |
| 19:00.52 | fsmithred | rad, not tasksel itself but task-desktop and task-*-desktop |
| 19:01.13 | walex | rad: I have written a guide on how to do that, link to follow |
| 19:01.20 | fsmithred | oh good |
| 19:01.58 | fsmithred | hi korgi |
| 19:02.03 | fsmithred | I'm still reading |
| 19:02.35 | walex | rad: fsmithred: http://www.sabi.co.uk/blog/13-one.html?130414#130414 |
| 19:02.38 | Korgi | Sorry about the long post, was trying to compress about 2 hours of back n forth discussion from discord lastnight xD |
| 19:02.40 | fsmithred | thanks |
| 19:02.51 | fsmithred | ok, first thing, korgi |
| 19:03.06 | walex | The Aptitude "search"/"filter" expressions are amazingly powerful and useful. |
| 19:03.07 | fsmithred | ignore the screen that asks you to supply firmware |
| 19:03.15 | fsmithred | just ignore it, really |
| 19:03.43 | fsmithred | the firmware is in the installer iso and will (should) be installed automatically unless you do two things |
| 19:04.02 | walex | rad: in Aptide youl can select a package and use "r" to see the packages that depend on it |
| 19:04.20 | fsmithred | those things would be: select expert install and select a mirror. Then the installer asks if you want non-free |
| 19:04.48 | Korgi | Alright, so just click "no" to continue then? |
| 19:04.55 | fsmithred | so you can try again with the same iso. Or you can try one of the live isos - the wireless firmware is installed |
| 19:05.10 | fsmithred | whatever to continue. I forget what it says. |
| 19:05.20 | Korgi | ok |
| 19:05.24 | fsmithred | if you have very new hardware... |
| 19:05.47 | fsmithred | and the stock kernel is too old, I do have some test isos with backports kernel and wireless firmware installed. |
| 19:05.57 | walex | rad: also an expression like '~R(libx11|libgtk)' shows only packages that depends on packages with "libx11" or "libgtk" in their names |

| 19:07.16 | rad | walex, thanks for the link checking it out. I'll also try the aptitude tip. |
| 19:07.42 | Korgi | Well it's not super new, but the mobo is from 2018 and has a built-in wifi adapter. I also have a GTX 1050ti, and an i5-8400 |
| 19:07.50 | walex | Korgi: by far and away the best solution to "WiFi firmware" problems is to buy an USB WiFi adapter as nearly all are based on popular Realtek chipset that are well supported by Linux drivers. |
| 19:07.58 | fsmithred | rad, try working the other direction and start with the deps of task-kde-desktop |
| 19:08.08 | walex | Korgi: at least for installation. |
| 19:09.10 | fsmithred | Korgi, do you know what chipset the wireless is? |

| 19:21.42 | rad | mason, amazing, I was considering making a script to do the same thing based on apt and apt-cache... |
| 19:21.58 | Tenkawa | those may even be the ucode's for a diff iwlwifi than the one you have (it tries to load like 30 diff models at once to find the right one) |
| 19:22.06 | Korgi | Thats the problem, I don't have a wired connection. Router is halfway across the house in our room-mates room, so not feasable to drag a cord all that way. |
| 19:22.48 | Tenkawa | got a usb stick by chance? |
| 19:23.06 | Korgi | Yes, but only 1 and that is what I installed the iso on |
| 19:23.38 | Tenkawa | ok.. tell it to bypass this and see if it detects and tries to scan for ssids |

| 19:35.53 | Korgi | ok on my phone now during installation. I clicked no, when it asked for the wifi firmware and now its asking for regulatory.db iwl-debug-yoyo and ctefx-r3di. should i just click no for this one too? |
| 19:36.43 | fsmithred | correct |
| 19:36.47 | fsmithred | skip all that shit |
| 19:37.27 | fsmithred | after lang and keyboard, you should get network setup |
| 19:38.35 | Korgi | sweet looks like it found it, its displaying anyway so thats a good sign |
| 19:38.54 | fsmithred | yes, if it sees any wireless networks nearby, it's working |
| 19:38.54 | Tenkawa | indeed |
| 19:39.14 | fsmithred | I had a problem with the wireless password. It kept failing. |
| 19:39.23 | fsmithred | two ways I found to fix it. |
| 19:39.52 | fsmithred | 1. turn off encryption, or 2. change the password so it doesn't contain any special characters. |
| 19:40.05 | fsmithred | someone else had no trouble with special characters |
| 19:40.37 | Tenkawa | special characters especially at the beginning of a pw seem to be a interesting hiccup |
| 19:40.39 | fsmithred | unknown reason. Could be that we used different special characters or some difference between us and gb keyboard. I have us. |
| 19:41.15 | Tenkawa | fsmithred: yeah I've seen the different country keyboard problem many times in my work |
| 19:41.31 | Tenkawa | was really fun when I use to travel lol |
| 19:42.14 | Tenkawa | thank goodness I could read/write the languages |
| 19:42.27 | Tenkawa | speak⦠not as well |
| 19:42.43 | fsmithred | it must have worked. Korgi is silent. |
| 19:45.10 | Korgi | trying to get it to connect to wifi atm. does the installer work over 5g. onnections? |
| 19:45.37 | fsmithred | I don't know |
| 19:49.29 | Tenkawa | 5g cellular or wifi networking? |
| 19:49.58 | Tenkawa | that card will only connect to wlan wifi networks |
| 19:50.10 | Tenkawa | the iwlwifi one |
| 19:50.15 | xinomilo | having problems with iwlwifi lately.. frequent disconnects from router at random intervals.. |
| 19:50.46 | Korgi | wifi networking. But its failing on the slower 2g connection as well. pass js hhst letters and numbers |
| 19:50.47 | Korgi | t |
| 19:50.51 | Tenkawa | xinomilo: do you do the requisite iwconfig wlan0 power off trick? |
| 19:50.56 | xinomilo | found a suggestion in arch bugtracker : |
| 19:51.03 | xinomilo | options iwlmvm power_scheme=1 |
| 19:51.03 | xinomilo | options iwlwifi power_save=0 |
| 19:51.17 | Tenkawa | thats the equiv of what I just typed |
| 19:51.42 | Tenkawa | mine was just on the fly |
| 19:51.58 | xinomilo | yes, applied it yesterday , seems better today |
| 19:52.12 | Tenkawa | yep it turns off power savings |
| 19:52.21 | Tenkawa | helps my devices a lot |
| 19:53.00 | xinomilo | i'll probably change the card with an old atheros i keep around |
| 19:53.57 | Tenkawa | xinomilo: I keep changing chipsets⦠right now I'm on one of the more obscure realtek AC ones |
| 19:54.26 | Tenkawa | it seems to be working really well⦠got the devices originally from Odroid |
| 19:54.33 | Korgi | everytime i try to connect it gives a failure of key and association error. this is on both the 2g and 5g wifi networks. pass is just letters and numbers for each |
| 19:54.50 | Tenkawa | hmm |
| 19:55.02 | xinomilo | atheros is included in kernel iirc, no separate firmware- needed.. prefer that one.. |
| 19:55.25 | Tenkawa | are you using your keypad to enter the password? (have to ask) |
| 19:55.44 | Korgi | keyboard |
| 19:56.23 | Tenkawa | I mean the one on your keyboard |
| 19:57.23 | Korgi | oh, no. i can try that though |
| 19:58.00 | Korgi | same thing |
| 19:58.09 | Tenkawa | I wanted to make sure you werent.. I've had people have their numlock key on |
| 19:58.17 | fsmithred | are you using us keyboard layout or other? |
| 19:58.29 | Tenkawa | things like that can get you real quick |
| 19:58.30 | Korgi | us |
| 19:58.40 | Tenkawa | fsmithred: that was my next q |
| 19:58.56 | fsmithred | can you try turning off the encryption just to test it? |
| 19:59.02 | fsmithred | make sure you can connect. |
| 19:59.17 | fsmithred | or else try changing it to all lower case. That worked for me. |
| 20:00.05 | fsmithred | brb |
| 20:00.49 | Tenkawa | bbialw⦠need to start cooking dinner |
| 20:02.46 | Y_Plentyn | fsmithred: just for the record, I workarounded the above problem using equivs-control xdg-desktop-portal-gtk-dummy |
| 20:02.49 | Korgi | cant right now, dont have access to the router. can ask roomie for login details later |
| 20:04.23 | Y_Plentyn | having a remote code execution open for several months is no fun |
| 20:05.21 | Korgi | wait nvm it did work. i was selecting the wrong network type apparently |
| 20:05.41 | fsmithred | I hope it's wpa2 |

| 21:04.21 | Korgi | was just about to ask that. I have devuan up and running now, but there are no network options. |
| 21:04.42 | fsmithred | and since you only have wireless, you're not connected, right? |

| 21:09.43 | Tenkawa | however you want to configure it |
| 21:10.05 | Tenkawa | it calls other helpers |
| 21:10.27 | fsmithred | so when you encounter a new network, you can select it and it asks for password? |
| 21:10.31 | Tenkawa | easiest way is 2 lines.. ssid/psk |
| 21:10.51 | fsmithred | or you have to configure each network in the file? |

| 21:19.15 | walex | three examples of WPA configs: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/CwDyNNCQvR/ |
| 21:20.28 | walex | they are pretty much boilerplate, and 'wpa_supplicant' will match them to SSIDs that are available, so several can be put in a file. |
| 21:21.02 | walex | one can also use 'wpa_cli' or 'wpa_gui' to do dynmic configuration. |
| 21:22.01 | walex | 'wpa_supplicant' does not do DHCP, that must be something separately done like 'dhclient -d wlan0'. I use a 'screen' or 'tmux' for that |
| 21:23.43 | Korgi | Sorry if this sounds kind of newbish, but i am tring to input the /etc/network/interfaces command into the terminal, under su but i just get permission denied. while in su mode, if i type sudo /etc/network/interfaces it just gives command not found. Am i using this function incorrectly? |
| 21:24.15 | walex | Korgi: it is not a command but a configuration file |
| 21:24.41 | Korgi | ahh ok |
| 21:24.49 | walex | Korgi: the commands are 'ifup NAME' and 'ifdown NAME' where NAME is in the config file |
| 21:25.53 | walex | Korgi: but almost certainly you don't need for an install |
| 21:26.11 | Korgi | ok |
| 21:26.14 | fsmithred | do 'su -' instead of 'su' or else you will need to use full path to some commands |
| 21:26.18 | walex | Korgi: you probably just need 'dhclient [-d] NICNAME' |
| 21:27.29 | walex | Korgi: almost surely you have a DHCP server, and 'ifup' in DHCP mode just does call 'dhclient' (and various hooks, but that's not so importat at this point). |
| 21:28.31 | walex | Korgi: note that NAME in 'ifup NAME' as a rule is a NICNAME, like 'eth0' or 'wlan0' |
| 21:30.59 | Tenkawa | wpa_supplicant is just for the handshake between the wireless to wireless ⦠but thats also why its easy to use: |
| 21:31.01 | Tenkawa | https://paste.debian.net/1194342/ |
| 21:31.24 | Tenkawa | this you put in /etc/network/interfaces |
| 21:32.18 | Tenkawa | note you cannot let Network Manager take control if you use this method |
| 21:33.17 | Tenkawa | my files use this except all with static ips |
| 21:33.54 | Korgi | okies, think i am going to just try the recovery mode mentioned before and see what happens |
| 21:34.24 | Tenkawa | Korgi: nono |
| 21:34.39 | Tenkawa | you forgot to type vi |
| 21:34.44 | Tenkawa | sudo vi |
| 21:34.58 | Tenkawa | to edit interfaces |
| 21:35.41 | Tenkawa | oh⦠I know what you are trying to do now |
| 21:35.53 | Tenkawa | Network Manager is controlling it... |
| 21:35.59 | Tenkawa | I neeed to go afk.. brb |
| 21:36.03 | fsmithred | current desktop installation does not include any network manager for the desktop |
| 21:36.20 | fsmithred | and if you install with wireless, you reboot to no network connection |
| 21:36.35 | fsmithred | if wired, you get a dhcp line for eth0 in interfaces |
| 21:37.42 | fsmithred | current desktop installation with the alpha chimaera installer isos |
| 21:40.10 | Tenkawa | no nm? odd |
| 21:40.22 | Korgi | oof...tried the recovery mode method, but it wont let me install any of the network managers. just says Temporary erreor resolving deb.devuan.org |

| 21:43.53 | fsmithred | did you reboot in the installer, or did you reboot rescue mode from the hard drive? |

| 21:52.13 | walex | Korgi: does your network have a DHCP server? |
| 21:52.28 | fsmithred | I think we know it is because you were able to install |
| 21:53.02 | Korgi | i have no idea how i would determine that. should just be your average home wifi connection |
| 21:53.20 | fsmithred | did you assign a specific ip address, or did you let it pick one? |
