00:00.17fsmithredomg, the picasso quote in the next post is priceless
00:01.23Chankuwhich quote exactly?
00:01.37fsmithredabout guernica
00:01.40ChankuOh..
00:01.42Chanku-doesn't get it-
00:02.09fsmithredyou've never seen the painting?
00:02.14ChankuNope
00:02.47fsmithredhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guernica_%28Picasso%29
00:03.19Chanku"the C compiler itself MUST issue a diagnostic IF this is the first required diagnostic resulting from your program, and then MAY itself cause demons to fly from your nose (which, by the way, could well BE the documented diagnostic message) just as it MAY issue further diagnostics for further  violations of syntax rules or constraints (or, for that matter, for any reason it chooses).""
00:07.29golinuxfsmithred: Downloaded refracta with lxrandr installed
00:08.58golinuxGwad!  That adwaita pointer sucks.  Very hard to see on a dark bg.  And those tango icons UGH!
00:09.20golinuxAt least it's possible to change the resolution so thanks for that
00:11.10golinuxhereby disavows responsibility for the choice of the mouse pointer theme or folder icons.
00:15.04fsmithredlol
00:15.13fsmithredwait. the folder icons are wrong???
00:15.33fsmithreddidn't you download the newer iso?
00:15.35fsmithredisos
00:15.36Lydia_KIt blows my mind that there's no good xrandr GUI outside of the damned gnome one, which isn't really that great in and of itself.
00:15.48fsmithredLydia_K, lxrandr rocks
00:17.15fsmithredgolinux, refracta does not use tango icons
00:19.29Lydia_KNot in my opinion it doesn't.
00:19.50fsmithredI can do side by side monitors with one big screen
00:20.16fsmithredthe Display gui in xfce won't do that
00:20.31fsmithredand I haven't tried gnome, because it won't work in a vm
00:21.16fsmithredso I don't know what I'm missing.
00:21.47fsmithredwhat do you need it to do?
00:22.09Lydia_KI hate to compare things to windows, but their little monitor management gui makes it incredibly simple to slap together any kind of multiple monitor config with simple drag and click, and it's not that xrandr can't do all of that, just all of the interfaces to do it are super clunky.
00:22.29Lydia_KPersonally I just write little one line xrandr "scripts"
00:22.47fsmithredyeah, I made one for brightness
00:23.03Lydia_Kbut I'm just shocked no one has written a decent one that actually leverages the functionality of xrandr
00:23.43Lydia_KI looked into writing one myself at one point, but I've never done more than tinker with GUI programming and quickly lost interest cause I don't care for GUIs
00:24.08fsmithredonly gui programming I know is yad/zenity on bash
00:24.20golinuxfsmithred: I downloaded refracta8_xfce_i386_rc1-20160722_1444.iso
00:24.29fsmithredno tango
00:24.31golinuxIt was at the top of the list
00:24.38fsmithredyeah, that's the latest
00:25.01fsmithredit the lxde icon set
00:25.06golinuxShould have the same folder and pointer icons as Devuan
00:25.13fsmithredwhy?
00:26.11golinuxBecause they are easier to see and look better IMO.
00:27.43Lydia_KLOL, I've used zenity to make "GUI programs" as well
00:27.53golinuxTo each his own I guess.  For me it's a turn off.
00:28.14fsmithredI'm install dmz-cursor now to investigate
00:28.22fsmithredI've never messed with the mouse cursor
00:28.27fsmithredoh
00:28.30fsmithrednot true
00:28.43fsmithredstopping. OT.

00:33.04fsmithredok, only 53 minutes left

00:39.03fsmithredhi rrq
00:39.24rrqhi
00:39.41rrqdoing paid work
00:39.57rrqand more :-)
00:40.09rrqany luck?
00:40.56rrqI need to rework the helpfulness of the vdev package is for replacing udev
00:40.59fsmithredI'm uploading a live cd
00:41.25rrqit's "complicated" :-(
00:41.25fsmithredbut I'm not sure what happens to initrd when you install it to hard drive
00:41.46fsmithredI assume that the new initrd that gets built will be for vdev
00:41.57fsmithredbut how would one make a new udev initrd?
00:42.03rrqthe vdev stuff is added, and the "bad" bit is that it replaces the init script (which belongs to initramfs-tools_
00:42.09rrq)
00:42.30fsmithredreplaces /sbin/init?
00:42.46rrqno /usr/share/initramfs-tools/init
00:43.00rrqwhich is the init script that goes into initrd
00:43.04fsmithredvdev replaces that? I've been in that file.
00:43.25fsmithredyeah, we had to play with that two years ago to get the isos to boot
00:43.39fsmithreddue to a change in util-linux
00:44.13fsmithredso to make a pure udev initrd, you'd need to keep a backup copy of init, and use that one.
00:44.32fsmithredI'm just thinking about ways to keep it easily switchable between vdev and udev
00:44.50rrqyes.. there are three things to deal with:
00:45.00fsmithredonly way I figured out some of the stuff for action files was to boot back and forth to see how udev handled it
00:45.08rrqthat init script, the rcS.d set up and the libudev1.so.1 link
00:45.27fsmithredthe last is what I know least
00:47.06rrqright. 1) libudev1-compat installs its library libudev1.so.1.5.2
00:47.40rrq2) the link libudev1.so.1 is set to point to the choice (udev's or compat)
00:48.27rrqthen you also need to run ldconfig
00:49.44rrqwhich *should* get the choice installed into the /etc/ld.so.cache (I think)
00:50.08rrqwhich is where dynamic linking picks up its resolutions
00:50.17rrq(I believe)
00:50.34Lydia_KCorrect.
00:51.02rrqthinks: cheers.
00:52.01Lydia_KThat, and the environment variables LD_LIBRARY_PATH and LD_PRELOAD, but those should only be used when you want to override the system defaults for a specific user/program.
00:53.07rrqof course all programs already loaded/started using old libudev1.so.?.?.? needs to be restarted.
00:53.22rrqlike Xorg
00:54.38fsmithredso, does that link get changed when you install the vdev debs?
00:55.57rrqit should happen automagically by installing libudev1-compat
00:56.22rrqwhich is declared to provide, conflict and replace libudev1 (=215)
00:56.46rrqwhich is the particular version of Devuan 1.0.0
00:57.21rrqthough I think that needs rework
00:57.22robert-eI suppose all this "choice" moving back and forth between vdev and udev is okay, but will it need continued attention what-with the continuour evolvement/change in systemd et al?
00:58.11robert-eI mean .. will be continuously beating a dead horse in the long term?
00:58.27fsmithredI think it needs continued attention to get to beta
01:00.15Lydia_KThings will settle down eventually, it's a turbulent time.
01:00.22fsmithredI'm looking at the link - it points to libudev not libudev-compat
01:00.42fsmithredthis is on the iso, which uses vdev 1.0, not 1.1
01:01.08rrqthe library is named libudev1.so.1.5.2  only the package is named libudev1-compat
01:01.29fsmithredso how do I know which one it is?
01:02.56rrqI usually do: dpkg -S libudev.so.1
01:04.27fsmithredok, it shows that the link is from -compat
01:04.44fsmithred1.5.0 is the link target, and that's from libudev
01:04.50fsmithred1.5.2 is from compat
01:05.20fsmithredso change that link, and ... do something with ldconfig?
01:05.52rrqhmmm the link should have changed...
01:06.10rrqa vdev choice includes the link being changed
01:07.37rrqI need to learn more about deb packaging
01:07.50rrqor rather not try to be fancy here
01:08.17fsmithredit points to 1.5.2 in the installation that has vdev 1.1
01:08.38fsmithrednot in the one that used 1.0
01:08.45fsmithredand I used 1.0 for the live iso
01:09.03fsmithredbecause with 1.1 I got no mouse or keyboard in X
01:10.26rrqok.. libudev1-compat had that change between 1.0 and 1.1; of declaring everything so as to fully replace libudev1... which is not right when you want to preserve a choice
01:11.06fsmithredgood, I don't have to stop this ungodly long upload
01:11.38rrqI think we need a switching tool/script to poke at all things in favour of udev or vdev at the whim of the user.
01:11.55rrqrather than packaging (me) making the choice
01:12.02fsmithredyeah, I'm thinking of making a live-usb disk image with a persistent partition
01:12.22fsmithredany changes get written to the persistent, and if necessary, wipe it out and start over
01:12.32fsmithredthe read-only live system stays the same
01:12.47fsmithredbut uses any changes on boot
01:13.58robert-eUnderstanding that precludes using a livecd/livedvd and requiring a usb boot..no problem for me, but might others.
01:14.36fsmithredmost people around here can handle dd'ing an image to a usb stick
01:14.52robert-eyep
01:15.19fsmithredand simple instructions that say, delete these files and directories if things go south
01:16.51fsmithredthen reboot the base system and make new changes
01:17.39fsmithredbrb
01:20.01fsmithredrobert-e, your machine does amd64?
01:20.19rrqpencils in some quality time with vdev later tonight, to add a friendly choice script and update packages
01:20.32fsmithredcool

01:40.43fsmithrednot unofficial live devuan
01:40.58robert-egolinux:  Yes, that was the url I looked at...the date shows 20160817 ???
01:41.10fsmithredhttps://sourceforge.net/projects/refracta/files/experimental/
01:41.22fsmithredand check the md5sum
01:41.38robert-emds5 sum show todays date.
01:42.09fsmithredlol, no, that's not how you do that.
01:42.18fsmithredhang on, let me check it on the server first.
01:42.58robert-eno...what I mean is that the file date on the mds5sum shows todays date, and the date shown in the iso is august 17th...?
01:43.08fsmithredyou've got the wrong iso
01:43.23robert-eThat is the only one on that page.
01:43.35robert-eI refreshed the browser just tomake sure.
01:43.57fsmithredin the experimetal folder?
01:44.16robert-eYes the folder in your link posted here.
01:44.28fsmithredweird
01:44.43fsmithredI'm seeing the right one, and it's even in the link for latest version
01:44.50fsmithredwhich is really not a good thing
01:45.48robert-eI did a copy and past in the iso file name (if you scroll up you will see what I mean)  wrt to the date in the iso filename.
01:46.14fsmithredwhat happens if you go to this link - http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/refracta/experimental/jessie_ob_vdev-20160906_1949.iso?r=https%3A%2F%2Fsourceforge.net%2Fprojects%2Frefracta%2Ffiles%2Fexperimental%2F&ts=1473212723&use_mirror=master
01:46.17fsmithredmnoooooooooooooooo
01:46.18fsmithredno
01:46.20fsmithrednot that one
01:46.24fsmithredwell, maybe
01:46.30fsmithredwtf, try it
01:47.24fsmithredanyway, the md5sum on the server checks out
01:47.39fsmithreddownload the iso, download the md5 file.
01:47.46golinuxrobert-e: Refresh the page maybe?
01:48.02fsmithredcat jessie_ob_whatever.md5
01:48.09fsmithredit'll print a number
01:48.13golinuxClear cache too
01:48.24fsmithredthen 'md5sum jessie_blah.iso'
01:48.28golinuxSometimes pages get "stuck"
01:48.36fsmithredwill print a number - they should be the same.
01:49.14robert-efsmithred:  that url took me to a 580 mb download window...I think based on your previous comments it should be the right one...jesse et all...will download it now...oh yes..I did refresh the browser..no joy.
01:49.29fsmithredgolinux, it's a brand new folder. It shouldn't be in anyone's cache.
01:49.36fsmithredyes 580 is right
01:50.44robert-efsmithred:  okay downloading now...Will start with the intel machine for testing.
01:50.48fsmithredwell, I guess it could be in robert's cache - I gave him the link before the download finished
01:50.50fsmithredcool
01:50.51golinuxOnly 64bit, right?
01:50.55fsmithredyes
01:51.05golinuxLeaves m eout of the mix
01:51.11fsmithredI chose that because that's what most people have been downloading
01:51.29golinuxnp.  Would probably be in over my head anyway
01:51.29fsmithredyou have a 64-bit machine. Wait until I make a usb image and you can boot that.
01:52.06fsmithredyeah, your time is better spent on other things.
01:52.39fsmithredthis is for people who like it when a system doesn't boot.
01:54.05robert-efsmithred:  8 minutes to go...will get out of here and get the thinkpad ready.

21:36.34fsmithredoh
21:36.36fsmithredhi rrq
21:36.56rrqmorning :-)
21:37.18fsmithredok, I'm about to upload a live usb image that has 1.0 installed
21:37.40fsmithredcan I use the debs to update from 1.0 to 1.2?
21:37.44fsmithredon the installed system
21:38.36rrqhmm... the new packages don't declare provides for libudev1 and udev
21:39.29fsmithredwere they supposed to?
21:41.03rrqwell, I would think dpkg pays attention to this, to for instance remove anything depending on X when X is removed.
21:43.20fsmithreddoesn't provides also mean 'takes the place of'?
21:43.28rrqand right: 1.0 wasn't at all friendly to udev things.. so it may require manual recovery
21:43.48rrqrecovery of udev and initramfstools, and maybe libudev1 even
21:43.57fsmithredyou mean if upgrading?
21:44.03rrqreinstall
21:44.06rrqyes
21:44.15fsmithredI have plenty of space for another partition, and I can start fresh
21:45.35rrqversion 1.2 is much friendler to the other kids.
21:46.12fsmithredwhat do I have to do to boot vdev or udev by choice?
21:46.54fsmithredor should that idea be abandoned?
21:47.16rrqscript /usr/share/vdev/vdev-install.sh lets you choose
21:47.53fsmithredwhat does it do?
21:49.57rrqThe three things: redirect the library pointer, replaces the initramfs files, and sets up rcS.d for the choice.
21:50.46rrqWith "dialog" you can even make the choice through that :-)
21:50.55fsmithredok
21:51.08rrq"/usr/share/vdev/vdev-install.sh dialog"
21:51.28fsmithredso you'd run that before you want to reboot with a different device manager?
21:51.58rrqWhen the vdev packag is installed it saves the udev files for initramfs building, so it can restore later
21:52.03rrqyes.
21:52.09fsmithredcool
21:52.58rrqrequires persistent disk of course.
21:53.10fsmithredyeah
21:53.20fsmithredthat's not a problem
21:54.18rrqI made the package run "vdev-install.sh vdev", since "dialog" is not installed in Devuan 1.0.0
21:54.49rrqand I didn't bother adding a command line choice dialog.
21:55.06fsmithreddoesn't debconf use dialog?
21:55.48rrqIt's used during the installation, but not in the installed.

22:52.38fsmithredI uploaded usb image here - http://distro.ibiblio.org/refracta/files/experimental/
22:52.46rrqah. right. thanks. I enjoyed a morning travel through the long awaited spring morning.
22:53.11rrqat office doing "serious work" :-)
22:55.20fsmithredI just woke from a nap.
22:59.05rrqhmm.. the downloading chokes after 1.8M ...
23:00.44fsmithreduh oh
23:01.00fsmithredI switched most stuff to sourceforge, because it's faster
23:01.21fsmithredbut I can't but another 1G on there unless I delete stuff.
23:01.38fsmithredand I still need to write some instructions for that image
23:02.02fsmithreddd to a usb stick, boot one of the first two entries (live, read-only),
23:02.26fsmithredthen run gparted and resize the second partition - it's only 80mb to keep the image small
23:02.51fsmithredthen reboot one of the r/w entries if you want persistence
23:03.25golinuxThe DL keeps failing
23:03.49fsmithredshit, ralph is having same problem
23:04.10rrqno worries. fyi I tried three from three hosts, one in US, and they all choke after 1,875,260 bytes
23:04.16fsmithredwget -c http://distro.ibiblio.org/refracta/files/experimental/r8_i386_vdev_usb-hdd.img
23:04.26fsmithredwill continue where it left off
23:05.02golinuxAt first it said a time of 24 min, started then a few secs later failed
23:05.13rrqcontinue = 'continue waiting' :-)
23:06.47fsmithredyes, that's the magic number: 1875260
23:06.50fsmithredwtf?

23:11.02golinuxSecond try, same result.
23:11.52fsmithredyeah, I got it, too.
23:12.04fsmithredThe hours just increase.
23:13.46fsmithredanyone know if git.devuan.org has disk limits and what they are?
23:25.29Centurion_Dano/
23:37.11rrqvdev-initramfs version 1.2 is set up to provide user choice between udev and vdev, "beneath" dpkg.
23:37.50rrqthis might be sufficient for test running vdev
23:38.38rrqudev and vdev are then independent in the eyes of dpkg.
23:39.17fsmithredsounds good. I'll download the new packages and play with them.
