* kreyren[m] made a major mistake in pinning which broke his whole system so hes rebuilding devan again~ | 00:07 | |
* kreyren[m] also has to so that whole process from SSH on his android because Getty is hugged and xorg is refusing to start | 00:07 | |
kreyren | kreyren@leonid:~$ DRI_PRIME=1 glxinfo | grep "OpenGL renderer" | 04:50 |
---|---|---|
kreyren | OpenGL renderer string: Mesa DRI Intel(R) HD Graphics 3000 (SNB GT2) | 04:50 |
kreyren | what am i doing wrong x.x | 04:50 |
onefang | I like how part of what you typed turned into a rainbow, pity the chip isn't showing you pretty colours. | 04:52 |
* kreyren created https://github.com/Kreyren/kreyren/issues/16 | 04:54 | |
kreyren | onefang, wut | 04:55 |
onefang | In some IRC clients, like mine, some combinations of letters turn into little graphical icons. Usually smilies. Whatever letters you put after "Intel" got turned into an icon of a rainbow. | 04:56 |
kreyren | lol | 04:56 |
onefang | Ah (R) turns into a rainbow. | 04:56 |
kreyren | \(\R\) = rainbow | 04:56 |
kreyren | ? | 04:56 |
onefang | Exactly. | 04:57 |
kreyren | lol | 04:57 |
FlibberTGibbet | hi, just trying to install beowulf from the live usb and it failed at installing busybox! any workaround for this please? | 13:50 |
FlibberTGibbet | didn't know busybox was even required :) | 13:51 |
FlibberTGibbet | oh ffs. sda1 is 244MB not GB. | 13:54 |
brocashelm | oh yeah i have had that happen a few times lol | 13:56 |
brocashelm | did it work this time? | 13:56 |
gnarface | you can get a smaller install with a netinstall iso | 13:56 |
FlibberTGibbet | not sure I'll get system in 244MB though :) | 13:56 |
FlibberTGibbet | fixed now, just backtracked and added the magic 'GB' to the partition sizes :) | 13:56 |
brocashelm | nice | 13:57 |
FlibberTGibbet | finally killing Win from my work machine and migrating that last box over to *X... | 13:57 |
brocashelm | happy to hear that. i switched to devuan (refracta) permanently last month and have been very satisfied with the progress this distro had made (i followed since ascii was beta) | 13:58 |
brocashelm | i used mint for 2-3 years straight and decided it was time to move on | 13:59 |
FlibberTGibbet | yes, i started with mint. really got bitten with mint a few months ago when it snarfled the encryption on my wife's laptop account. tbh didn't realise that mint encrypted home by default. have a long route to recovery for the data but it's a royal pain | 14:00 |
FlibberTGibbet | in short i prefer the devuan way of doing it :) | 14:00 |
brocashelm | i kept 18.3 because it was the last release with upstart as optional init, and that one was simpler and less bloated than shitstemd. the ironic thing is upstart was developed by ubuntu, and i would rather use that one (even abandoned as it is) than poetteringshit | 14:05 |
FlibberTGibbet | amen. i think that was about when I considered switching... | 14:05 |
brocashelm | i also never installed debian itself, so coming to devuan was a fresh experience | 14:05 |
brocashelm | i enabled the non-free repos and got my amd radeon gpu working | 14:06 |
brocashelm | it's been smooth sailing ever since | 14:06 |
brocashelm | with runit as my init, it's a whole lot snappier and stable, while consuming very low resources | 14:06 |
FlibberTGibbet | drivers are always the worst :) | 14:06 |
brocashelm | yeah, i had to realize the blobs were still proprietary | 14:07 |
FlibberTGibbet | have to set up bumblebee/optimus on this Dell which should be fun :/ | 14:07 |
brocashelm | i'm also using dells. those budget refurbished desktops are a steal. rocking an i5-3570 and devuan + xfce treats it well | 14:08 |
FlibberTGibbet | how well behaved is your radion driver? | 14:08 |
FlibberTGibbet | yes, nearly all refurb corporate-warrior machines here :) | 14:08 |
onefang | Eww, Optimus. | 14:09 |
brocashelm | it's pretty robust. i have rx 460 and rx 550 gpus | 14:09 |
FlibberTGibbet | sounds good | 14:09 |
brocashelm | indeed, those optiplex machines can go for like $100 on ebay and give you just as much power as (if not more than) a typical "new pc". only thing i really hate is the uefi crap, which you can disable in place of legacy bios | 14:10 |
FlibberTGibbet | ugh, yes, not a uefi fan. | 14:10 |
brocashelm | i got several here of different types and devuan is going to replace the rest still with mint | 14:11 |
FlibberTGibbet | hah, it's installed and running... | 14:11 |
brocashelm | nice | 14:11 |
brocashelm | creating a /home partition is convenient because that takes care of 80% of my configs and the rest is just checking /etc and the like | 14:11 |
FlibberTGibbet | should have done that -- will do when I buy a much larger ssd | 14:12 |
FlibberTGibbet | just swap and / for now | 14:12 |
brocashelm | yes, you will receive faster access | 14:12 |
brocashelm | i don't use swap myself. does it benefit you? | 14:12 |
FlibberTGibbet | not a clue, just habit! | 14:12 |
brocashelm | you can also use swap as a file (swapfile) | 14:12 |
FlibberTGibbet | true. anyway, have to set this monster up now...catch you later! | 14:13 |
brocashelm | ttyl | 14:13 |
ham5urg | I just booted devuan-live amd64 iso. Opened a terminal and partitioned/formated the harddisk. After I started debootstrap and got: unable to execute target architecture | 19:08 |
ham5urg | the command: debootstrap --arch amd64 stable /mnt/ http://deb.devuan.org/merged/ | 19:08 |
fsmithred | ham5urg, try beowulf instead of stable | 19:09 |
ham5urg | Btw. PATH is not set. debootstrap is not working if not used as /usr/sbin/debootstrap | 19:09 |
fsmithred | su changed | 19:09 |
fsmithred | use 'su -' to get root's path | 19:10 |
ham5urg | fsmithred, thanks a ton. | 19:10 |
ham5urg | 'su -' was needed | 19:11 |
fsmithred | if you want su to act like it used to... | 19:11 |
fsmithred | put: ALWAYS_SET_PATH yes | 19:11 |
fsmithred | in /etc/default/su | 19:11 |
ham5urg | Is there something behind this behaviour of su? | 19:11 |
fsmithred | it went from part of the shadow package to part of util-linux | 19:12 |
fsmithred | I've never seen an explanation of why they changed it | 19:12 |
fsmithred | it = the behavior | 19:12 |
ham5urg | I see. Nevertheless, thanks | 19:12 |
fsmithred | I like to get root's path without changing directory | 19:12 |
fsmithred | is debootstrap working now? | 19:14 |
ham5urg | like a charm. already finished | 19:14 |
fsmithred | it didn't like 'stable'? | 19:14 |
fsmithred | or it was the path? | 19:14 |
ham5urg | I used stable. It was the path. | 19:15 |
ham5urg | trying to use two mdraid with gpt and bios and efi boot | 19:15 |
fsmithred | from the live-iso? | 19:16 |
ham5urg | live-iso is just for booting the machine the first time to partition/format/debootstrap/grub the system | 19:17 |
fsmithred | yjsy | 19:18 |
fsmithred | pp[d | 19:19 |
fsmithred | shit | 19:19 |
fsmithred | that'll work. Stay focused. | 19:19 |
ham5urg | It will work | 19:22 |
brocashelm | is anyone having issues with xfce4-screenshooter delaying screenshot retrieval after initiating the process? i was using 1.9.3-1 and downgraded to 1.8.2-2, which made the problem go away | 20:38 |
brocashelm | has this been fixed upstream? | 20:43 |
golinux | brocashelm: If there isn't a bug report, file one upstream | 20:58 |
fsmithred | brocashelm, I've been using 1.9.3-1 all year | 20:58 |
