| 07:21.22 | ectospasm | there's much more that it can do. |
| 07:21.34 | zRecursive | do i need to `xterm -e screen` ? |
| 07:21.41 | ectospasm | zRecursive: No. |
| 07:21.53 | ectospasm | ...but you could. |
| 07:21.54 | zRecursive | ectospasm: just `screen` ? |

| 07:22.25 | ectospasm | zRecursive: you can run screen in any terminal shell, with or without X Windows. |
| 07:22.27 | zRecursive | irrc, tmux needs `xterm -e tmux` to start itself |
| 07:23.17 | *** join/#debian alimj (~alimirjam@188.245.195.12) |
| 07:23.26 | ectospasm | zRecursive: I use tmux from rxvt-unicode-256, and I just run it from the terminal windows directly. |
| 07:24.10 | diytto | hmmm |
| 07:24.37 | zRecursive | ectospasm: i see. screen still needs terminal window. i.e. in X, you canot use gmrun to start screen, right ? |
| 07:24.38 | diytto | so if i detach will it continue to run? |
| 07:24.58 | diytto | the goal is to be able to run a thing while not attached |
| 07:25.13 | diytto | aka i can log out of the server and it will still run |
| 07:25.27 | ectospasm | zRecursive: screen does not need a terminal emulator, it can be run from the virtual consoles (Ctrl-alt-F{1..8}) |

| 07:25.55 | mrkiko | Hi all guys! |
| 07:26.00 | zRecursive | ectospasm: ok |
| 07:26.02 | ectospasm | ...but if you run something like gmrun (which depends on X, IIRC), screen will need to have the $DISPLAY variable set, among other things. |
| 07:26.10 | mrkiko | Thank you all for your excellent work in debian; |
| 07:26.48 | mrkiko | I wanted to know if you have some suggestion to run apt on a very small mips embedded device - if there are any tuning I can apply to speed it up as much as I can |
