debdogyes, scrolling back on the other consols during installation prooved being handy00:00
debdogok, trying this PC now, hope I'll be able to switch back OO00:02
debdogphew, back. and it worked here, too00:02
MinceRmaybe tmux or screen is installed by default and then you can use those for scrollback00:03
debdogyay, the installer should run inside screen/tmux \o/ I am all for that!00:04
Hurgotrondebdog: ok, it's the kernel indeed. booted 4.19.0-9 and scrollback is there.00:08
Hurgotronmeh.00:09
debdog:/00:09
HurgotronBut thanks for your help. :)00:09

debdogwe could be lucky and the buffer will be added again00:18
XenguyPlease take it to #devuan-offtopic folks, I implore you01:24
XenguySorry that was meant for folks up buffer01:25
debdogI think there should be strict guidelines for what is on-topic01:28
XenguyIt's pretty clear I think, this is a support channel for devuan01:29
XenguyHence chatter about bsd, ubuntu, and similar things are OT01:30
XenguyAnd hopefully unixbsd understands that clearly by now01:30
debdoghmm, maybe 'support' should be more emphasised in the topic01:32
XenguyMakes sense to me01:32
debdoglike "Devuan support channel! [...]01:33
debdog"01:33
XenguyAgreed01:33
XenguyHow about:  s/take offtopic cat to #devuan-offtopic/This is the Devuan support channel, &/01:34
XenguybuZz ^^01:34

lts-That works if you want to explain daily that "support channel" means "no offtopic chat here please" :-)06:16
crashoverrideXenguy: exactly what lts- said. And even tho, it will *not* work as is: too many users are missing from -offtopic (like unixbsd for example), inviting people from -offtopic requires @ (op), and there is no bot for telling people to go on -offtopic.07:21
crashoverrideSo basically, even tho there *is* an offtopic channel, you guys are better off pimping up you client with auto-noact-ignore (that possibly collapses or grays out the text) on discussions that are offtopic.07:24
adhocany RISC-V devs here? https://linuxgizmos.com/risc-v-to-hand-out-1000-free-risc-v-dev-boards/08:56
onefangWould be useful to get one of those into the hands of one of us Devuan Devs.08:57
onefangAlas I'm snowed under with things I need to do, or I'd put my hand up.09:00
adhoconefang: which I why I shared =)09:04
onefangThough we would need support in Debian, which was being worked on, might still be getting worked on.09:04
adhocyes, all too busy ...09:04

xinomilomight be OT or might not . anyway, here it goes: https://twitter.com/ariadneconill/status/139299549640334131316:11
masonxinomilo: That would be better in OT, but my current feeling is that the coup will fail.19:22
