00:28.07 | EHeM | Has anyone in Devuan thought about what the consequences of adding an include directive to init would be? Particularly if this also allowed one to include directories (/etc/inittab.d)? |
00:30.04 | gnarface | don't the bash scripts that make up /etc/init.d/ already DO includes? i thought they did. they used to at least... maybe i'm remembering that from RedHat days though... |
00:30.43 | EHeM | gnarface: Completely wrong, adding an include to *init* (the thing which handles /etc/inittab, PID 1). |
00:31.09 | gnarface | oh, not just subdividing the init scripts themselves into common functions |
00:31.21 | gnarface | what would you need that for? |
00:32.06 | gnarface | cause what i described, i could see a definite use for, and i see a lot of sysv init scripts that fail to benefit from what i though was an existing solution but... |
00:32.11 | gnarface | includes for the inittab? |
00:32.28 | EHeM | It could be used to gain many of the claimed benefits of systemd with only a tiny change. |
00:32.45 | gnarface | well that's a great pitch, you should hold on to that |
00:32.51 | gnarface | i don't see how, but that's a great pitch |
00:33.19 | EHeM | Likely you'd include /etc/inittab.d, but then also include /run/inittab.d. |
00:33.46 | gnarface | oh |
00:34.05 | gnarface | maybe that's the part they specifically *didn't* want PID1 able to do |
00:34.09 | gnarface | i'm not sure |
00:34.17 | EHeM | Dynamic hardware, plug in a USB-serial cable which adds /run/inittab.d/gettyUSB9 which then spawns a getty on the USB-serial cable. |
00:34.24 | gnarface | what you're talking about may have actually been the argument that launched systemd actually |
00:35.58 | EHeM | It was one of the things which launched systemd, but I was trying to come up with simpler ways (in the daemon and configuration) of achieving some of the same goals. |
00:39.01 | EHeM | Dynamic hardware is very real at this point and there should be a solution simpler than systemd, this is one such that doesn't break all the traditional rules. |
00:39.57 | gnarface | yes, well, systemd does feel very much like a temper tantrum where a teenager burns down a tree because he was told not to carve his name in it |
00:40.25 | gnarface | but at the same time, i would have only been okay with this personally given the hindsight of seeing what they'd do instead |
00:40.36 | gnarface | i can see why people would want to draw a line there |
00:40.42 | gnarface | it's still a big entry vector |

01:09.53 | DocScrutinizer05 | ((<gnarface> don't the bash scripts that make up /etc/init.d/ already DO includes?)) of course, like `source <scriptname>`, resp a function call to do (simplified:) `for f in /etc/foo/bar/*; do source $f; done` |
01:12.08 | DocScrutinizer05 | include inittab snippets? why? |
01:14.10 | EHeM | DocScrutinizer05: Of key note such would allow for adding/removing daemons which expect to be supervised (getty) without needing to modify files on / and ensuring things don't collide. |
01:16.04 | EHeM | Also instead of having daemons started by /etc/init.d/<foo>, instead add a snippet to /run/inittab.d and then HUP 1. |
01:16.05 | DocScrutinizer05 | err, I'm no expert but some experts' opinions I read claimed that init and daemon monitoring are to disjunct tasks |
01:16.23 | DocScrutinizer05 | are two* |
01:16.54 | EHeM | 'tis a thought, perhaps not a good idea, but I do see some potential. |
01:17.20 | DocScrutinizer05 | and I pretty much understand that notion, it's in line with all the reasons why we don't like systemd |
01:18.44 | EHeM | My dislike of systemd is it is merging *everything* into systemd, this seems a simple step while avoiding the complexity. |
01:21.08 | DocScrutinizer05 | aiui it's exactly the first step on a path towards the monolithic complexity of systemd |
01:21.28 | EHeM | Which is the difficulty. :-/ |

01:22.17 | EHeM | Trick is to come up with better solutions, since the problems are very real. |

02:49.36 | Chanku|Mobile | Hey |
02:50.25 | gnarface | good evening Chanku|Mobile, you look familiar |
02:52.32 | Chanku|Mobile | Well that is because I am :P |
02:53.18 | Chanku|Mobile | However I am mainly here because I am having an issue with connecting to WiFi and thought I could get some help. |
02:53.31 | gnarface | you might get some help |
02:54.15 | gnarface | traditionally the request for help has to be a bit more specific |
02:54.18 | Chanku|Mobile | Basically I am trying to connect to WiFi using WPA_supplicant but it keeps on not connecting to the network and skipping over the said. |
02:54.21 | Chanku|Mobile | *ssid |
02:54.34 | gnarface | hmmm |
02:54.50 | gnarface | when you say "skipping over" does that mean it connects to a different one than the one you wanted? |
02:55.22 | gnarface | or do you just mean that you've specified the ssid in your config but it seems to be ignored? |
02:55.23 | Chanku|Mobile | No, the debug output says the ssid doesn't match |
02:55.30 | gnarface | hmmm |
02:55.34 | gnarface | interesting |
02:55.51 | gnarface | just out of curiosity, do you happen to have that stealth ssid feature turned on at the router? |
02:56.04 | gnarface | it might be labeled something like "don't broadcast SSIDs" or something like that? |
02:56.05 | Chanku|Mobile | No. |
02:56.19 | gnarface | ok |
02:56.21 | Chanku|Mobile | It is showing up with WPA_supplicant though |
02:56.26 | gnarface | what's the wifi device? |
02:56.30 | Chanku|Mobile | (Ran with -dd) |
02:56.38 | gnarface | need a hardware model # |
02:56.41 | Chanku|Mobile | I am trying to connect to a friend's iPhone. |
02:56.50 | gnarface | no i mean of the wifi device in the computer, not at the remote end |
02:56.58 | Chanku|Mobile | Because tethering and we lack actual WiFi here. |
02:57.26 | gnarface | but it's wireless ethernet, not bluetooth thethering, right? |
02:57.35 | Chanku|Mobile | I wouldn't know. I know what the laptop is (Toughbook CF-30) |
02:57.40 | Chanku|Mobile | And yes, wireless |
02:58.58 | Leander | just a thought: are there any non-alphanumeric characters in the SSID? |
02:59.13 | Chanku|Mobile | Yes |
02:59.14 | Chanku|Mobile | ' |
02:59.38 | gnarface | Chanku|Mobile: that appears to be a 4965AG, which requires intel's non-free wifi firmware. "firmware-iwlwifi" package in non-free (on Jessie) |
02:59.54 | gnarface | Chanku|Mobile: if you're missing that package, that's my best bet as to why it's not working |
02:59.57 | Chanku|Mobile | (Which shows up as \xe2\x80\x99 |
03:00.10 | Chanku|Mobile | I've used the WiFi before |
03:00.40 | gnarface | just double check that you have the firmware-iwlwifi package installed. sometimes when they say "requires" non-free firmware it only actually requires it for WPA2, which maybe you didn't use last time |
03:00.57 | Leander | that's not an ASCII quote, that's what might be giving you trouble |
03:00.59 | gnarface | also, you'd see complaints about missing firmware somewhere in dmesg (probably in mid-boot) |
03:01.01 | Chanku|Mobile | I s |
03:01.24 | gnarface | weird characters in the SSID seem plausible too |
03:01.33 | gnarface | try changing it to alpha-numerics only if you can |
03:01.42 | Leander | especially if you fill up the wpa_supplicant.conf file by yourself |
03:01.48 | gnarface | https://wiki.debian.org/iwlegacy |
03:02.17 | gnarface | ^ the jessie information on this wiki page should be valid for devuan too |
03:02.32 | Leander | otherwise you can also give a try to wpa_gui if possible, it should handle them properly |
03:02.46 | gnarface | wifi-radar also works doesn't it? |
03:03.09 | gnarface | Leander: can having the proper locale installed help fix this? |
03:03.21 | gnarface | if they're just windows cp1215 curly quotes or something? |
03:03.30 | gnarface | or some unicode... |
03:03.41 | Leander | I think it's unicode, since it's an iphone |
03:04.12 | gnarface | Chanku|Mobile: yea, you might also want to make sure you have the UTF8 locale activated even if it's not the default (dpkg-reconfigure locales) |
03:04.34 | gnarface | apple stuff does really like to default to unicode |
03:04.43 | Chanku|Mobile | Okay |
03:05.04 | gnarface | i don't put weird characters in my SSID's though |
03:05.04 | Leander | and I don't know how to properly escape special characters in wpa_supplicant.conf |
03:06.38 | gnarface | me either |
03:07.01 | gnarface | haha i really like ethernet cable |
03:07.12 | gnarface | maybe too much |
03:07.40 | Chanku|Mobile | I use in_US.utf-8 |
03:07.59 | gnarface | ok. is that the only one? |
03:08.35 | Chanku|Mobile | No |
03:08.43 | gnarface | some stuff for a while still had bugs if you didn't also include iso-8859-1 (latin-1) but i don't think that's the problem here |
03:09.00 | gnarface | it's just as possible that apple supports non-standard characters in the wifi SSID |
03:09.27 | Chanku|Mobile | It is the default SSID I believe |
03:09.31 | gnarface | but i'm just about 100% certain that it WILL NOT WORK without firmware-iwlwifi |
03:09.48 | gnarface | you can check with: dpkg -l |grep firmware |
03:10.10 | Chanku|Mobile | I am pretty sure I have connected to a WPA2-PSK AP |
03:10.29 | gnarface | it's easy to double check |
03:10.40 | Chanku|Mobile | And no |
03:10.56 | gnarface | you sure that was with the same hardware? |
03:11.17 | gnarface | and same kernel? |
03:11.36 | gnarface | i'm out of ideas |
03:11.52 | Chanku|Mobile | Yup |
03:12.11 | gnarface | check your firewall? |
03:12.24 | Chanku|Mobile | How? |
03:12.41 | gnarface | depends |
03:12.49 | gnarface | maybe: iptables -L -v -t nat |
03:13.00 | gnarface | iptables -L -v |
03:14.53 | Chanku|Mobile | Is WPA/WPA2-PSK the sane thing? |
03:15.14 | gnarface | i think so, but i have seen devices that could only connect to WPA2-TKP |
03:16.18 | gnarface | make sure it's PSK |
03:16.37 | gnarface | they are not all the same, but you usually don't have to worry about it... |
03:16.58 | gnarface | i guess double-check what the phone allows too |
03:17.08 | gnarface | maybe there are some things you can change there |

03:19.21 | gnarface | TKP worked? |
03:20.10 | Chanku2M | The reason why I could connect to WPA2-PSK AP's before, but not this, is because apparently WPA/WPA2-PSK was because WPA was a fallback it seems |
03:20.20 | Chanku2M | TKP? |
03:20.28 | gnarface | nevermind TKP |
03:20.39 | gnarface | WPA2 is sane, WPA is not |
03:20.49 | Chanku | Yeah... |
03:20.54 | gnarface | that's a problem |
03:21.04 | gnarface | did you check on that firmware? |
03:21.26 | Chanku | I don't have it. |
03:21.49 | gnarface | i can understand not wanting it, but ... in my experience it's definitely not gonna work without it |
03:22.03 | gnarface | you could use a different wifi device though |
03:22.12 | gnarface | nothing will stop you from using a USB wifi device |
03:22.43 | gnarface | but you'll want to be very careful to make sure you find one that doesn't also just require it's own non-free firmware in that case |
03:22.44 | Chanku | I don't have any other device atm |
03:22.51 | gnarface | (most the cheap ones do) |
03:23.24 | Chanku | I am trying to connect to a weak open WiFi network and download the firmware |
03:24.09 | gnarface | make sure to use encryption |
03:24.35 | gnarface | (use apt-get if possible instead of just downloading the package) |
03:24.38 | Chanku | I always do |
03:24.44 | gnarface | ok good just making sure |
03:25.00 | gnarface | good luck, brb |

07:58.40 | aitor | 5.- Now, you can change the sources, but first, if you want to mantain constant the tarball of the sources, youĺl need to use pristinte-tar, developed in perl by Joey Hess |
07:59.17 | aitor | so, you have to generate the pristine-tar branch in your git repository: |
08:00.04 | aitor | pristine-tar commit ../slim_1.3.6.orig.tar.gz |
08:00.39 | aitor | this step can take some time in the case of big projects like the linux kernel |
08:01.26 | aitor | Aply your changes to the .cpp file |
08:01.51 | aitor | 6.- commit your changes: |
08:01.55 | aitor | git add . |
08:01.59 | aitor | git commit --all |
08:02.30 | aitor | 7.- Now, generate the quilt patch for this concrete change: |
08:02.38 | aitor | dpkg-source --commit |
08:03.29 | aitor | 8.- the 7 step will generate the patch in debian/patches, but now you need to commit this change: |
08:03.34 | aitor | git add . |
08:03.38 | aitor | git commit --all |
08:05.24 | aitor | 9.- you changed the slim package, so you need to change the version number of it in the debian/changelog INCREASING THE PART RELATED WITH THE DEBIAN BRANCH |
08:06.13 | aitor | for example, from 1.3.6-5 to 1.3.6-6: |
08:06.40 | aitor | git-dch --ignore-branch --auto --full --new-version=1.3.6-6 |

08:13.14 | aitor | i didn't explore too much in git-dch |
08:13.21 | parazyd | this i can't find out an automatic way for |
08:13.52 | aitor | and the last step... |
08:14.01 | aitor | 10.- build the package: |
08:14.42 | aitor | git-buildpackage -j4 -tc -kXXXXXXXX --git-export-dir="../build-area" --git-pristine-tar --git-tag --git-ignore-branch |

08:15.12 | aitor | here, XXXXXXXX is your gpg signature key |
08:16.07 | aitor | the generated orig.tar.xz will have the same md5sum than the original thanks to the use of pristine-tar |
08:16.39 | gnu_srs | aitor: Nice description. Can you put that info somewhere on the g.d.o web (not dev1galaxy)? |
08:16.41 | aitor | this is the reasen why you don't have to change the version number in the upstream branch |

08:18.18 | aitor | one clarification: this last step needs an orig.tar.xz tarball in the parent directory |
08:20.11 | aitor | if it doesn't exit, you can checkout it using pristine-tar again: |

10:56.37 | system16 | someone in #filezilla said run this :for i in /etc/ssh/ssh_host*.pub; do ssh-keygen -l -f $i; done |
10:56.53 | parazyd | yeah you do that on the serve |
10:57.08 | djph | system16: that would work. Though you should already have your host key, since you've connected to it before ... |
10:58.00 | system16 | djph :the servers host key is unknown. you have no guarantee that the server is the computer you think it is <<filezilla |
10:58.07 | djph | indeed |
10:58.35 | system16 | host:192.168.1.5:22 |
10:58.38 | djph | same error you get if you ssh in on commandline |
10:59.30 | system16 | so a guy in #filezilla said :run that command and compare keys but im not sure what key should i compare |
10:59.47 | koollman | system16: how is that life/death ? :) |
11:00.26 | system16 | <PROTECTED> |
11:00.43 | system16 | ^^ in #filezilla |
11:00.45 | djph | system16: when you run that command (on your server) a bunch of fingerprints will be returned. These are your server's identification keys. Compare to the "key aa:bb:cc:[...] not known" that filezilla's whining about, when one matches, you know you're connecting to the right one |
11:00.58 | koollman | system16: so, ask a stranger on internet ? |
11:01.00 | djph | ... you're reading WAY too much into things still |
11:01.24 | djph | koollman: at least the stranger on the internet didn't just give him a forkbomb |
11:01.50 | djph | koollman: and at least he's trying to not be a user and just click through |

11:02.07 | djph | koollman: I'm not saying ... |
11:02.30 | djph | system16: you can give the full algo, it's not like we can't just check our own servers and see what algos they use |
11:02.46 | system16 | fingerprints:SHA256......... djph you mean this one? |
11:02.58 | djph | not to mention, you're trying to look at a local network machine |
11:03.01 | djph | system16: yes |
11:03.34 | system16 | no SHA256 only 256 |
11:04.03 | djph | system16: now, if filezilla is only showing the md5 (0A:1B:2C:etc) then you have to tell ssh-keygen to spit out the md5 fingerprint as well |
11:04.40 | system16 | ok plz wait im typing the fingerprint that filezilla is showing |
11:05.29 | koollman | I'm guessing this is a good case for using dnssec and sshfp records |
11:05.32 | djph | I don't care what your fingerprint is |
11:05.55 | djph | koollman: he's connecting to 192.168.x.y:22. DNSSEC won't help at all |

11:08.17 | djph | koollman: well, it might, but we'd first have to walk him through setting up a DNS server. SSH (apt-get install openssh-server) was hard enough :P |
11:08.35 | system16 | SHA256: ecqWT5CnXydRM9/MH+EXR1/TtNM+WVRzHSEsEt3eNY=MD5: 36:9e:19:cd:11:cc:2d:30:50:99:f9:7b:cb:48:fe:0c |

11:09.24 | system16 | but no SHA and ecq in the info in my server |
11:09.25 | djph | so then check your server's keys. One of them will be ecq[...]eNY |
11:09.47 | djph | system16: did you run the ssh-keygen command against the keys? |

11:11.19 | djph | right |
11:12.11 | djph | and if you were in the right directory (/etc/ssh), you would've gotten several responses (by default, I believe 4) |
11:12.23 | system16 | non of them start with SSH256 |
11:12.30 | system16 | i can see 4 lines |
11:12.35 | djph | one of which would've matched either the SHA256 OR the MD5 hash |
11:13.07 | djph | depending on which output format ssh-keygen -l used (IIRC, it defaults to SHA-256, but it may be MD5) |
11:13.45 | djph | if sha256 -> you'll have four lines of SHA256 hash garbage |
11:13.53 | system16 | im in /etc/ssh |
11:14.02 | system16 | im running the command again |
11:14.03 | djph | if MD5 -> you'll have four lines of MD5 fingerprint |
11:14.32 | system16 | first line starts with 1024..... |
11:14.34 | djph | doesn't matter that you only get one or the other -- filezilla just handed you both (as not all implementations of ssh do SHA256 output hashes) |
11:14.43 | system16 | 256.... |
11:14.54 | system16 | 2048.... |
11:15.06 | djph | the output is |
11:15.22 | djph | <key-bit-length> <key-fingerprint> <key-name> |
11:15.34 | system16 | ? |
11:15.43 | djph | it's three pieces of information |
11:15.57 | djph | er four |
11:16.00 | djph | e.g. |
11:16.00 | djph | 1024 73:5a:23:6b:22:cf:1b:7c:42:70:64:3b:83:18:9e:6c ssh_host_dsa_key.pub (DSA) |
11:16.39 | djph | 1024 bit key / fingerprint= 73:5a:[...]6c / filename / key-type (DSA) |
11:17.26 | system16 | <PROTECTED> |
11:17.33 | djph | in your case, match either ecq[...]eNY OR 36:9e:[...]:0c from what Filezilla told you to one of the four keys |
11:17.45 | system16 | (dsa) i mean |
11:18.05 | system16 | and the numbers are a bit different |
11:18.08 | djph | That's one of my keys. I highly doubt you'll have the same one. |
11:19.04 | system16 | no the numbers after 1024 are different |
11:19.17 | djph | damn straight they are |
11:19.43 | djph | it's a key fingerprint. The fingerprints at the end of my fingers are different than yours ... |
11:20.09 | system16 | ok but it doesnt match with the fingerprint that filezilla is giving me... |
11:20.24 | djph | so then read the next one down |
11:20.30 | djph | you got four responses, didn't you? |
11:20.36 | system16 | 4 lines |
11:21.14 | system16 | now what ? |
11:21.58 | system16 | i think non of them match non of them start with SSH256 or MD5 |
11:22.05 | djph | the server is only going to present one key, based on the (generally strongest) |
11:22.38 | djph | the "SSA256" and "MD5" bits are just informational so the user can differentiate |
11:23.17 | djph | all that matters is the key fingerprint "ecq..." for SHA256 or "36:9c..." for MD5 |

17:59.43 | Enrico_Menotti | This morning aitor explained lots of things about packaging. However, I'm still stuck at my problem: when changing a very small bit in a single file, I don't need to rebuild the whole package. I may issue debuild with the -nc option, but that doesn't build anything, so my change doesn't get into the binary. A similar question with discussion: https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/304590/how-to-debuild-debian-apache- |

19:56.48 | Enrico_Menotti | blinkdog It is dbus-cpp. I seem to have found the clue. But it seems to be very package-specific. The build was successful, but at the end 15 tests are done; they all run smooth except the first, and that stops the packaging process. I modded the source file for that test, by reducing the workload on the system (if I got it right, this test tries to run 5 parallel threads; with just 3, all works fine). The problem |
19:56.48 | Enrico_Menotti | <PROTECTED> |
19:57.22 | blinkdog | ahhh okay |
19:59.13 | Enrico_Menotti | I found out, after some trial & error, that when I modify the test source file, debuild -nc doesn't trigger its rebuilding. I had to cd to some obj* directory inside the package root directory (seems to be where sources are actually built, or something of this kind) and issue make <testname>. If the test source has been modified, make triggers a rebuild for this file. After that, a make test runs all the tests. |
19:59.55 | blinkdog | Is that a package (dbus-cpp) specific thing or a Debian packaging thing? |
20:00.14 | Enrico_Menotti | Now I'm trying to rebuild the complete package with debuild from a brand new downloaded source, where I just made the slight modification described above. Let's see. |
20:01.21 | Enrico_Menotti | blinkdog I think it's a package-specific thing. The behaviour of the makefiles, I mean. The fact that debuild doesn't recognise local modifications, that I don't know. |

21:24.42 | aitor | a |
21:24.51 | unixman | A Samsung. |
21:24.57 | mockingbird | When the pronunciation of the successive word begins phonetically with a vowel you say "an" |
21:25.31 | mockingbird | hey what is this windowing system in the default desktop manager |
21:25.41 | mockingbird | it's not KDE but it's decent enough |

21:26.38 | mockingbird | I like KDE the best because I can make it look like Windows, but not at the expense of using SystemD |
21:26.44 | aitor | L is not a vowel |
21:27.01 | mockingbird | They keep doing stupid things like systemd to balkanize the development and user base |
21:27.19 | unixman | Meh, KDE lost me a few years ago. The 4.0 tire fire was the last straw. |
21:27.41 | saptech | heh, me too |
21:27.46 | mockingbird | I did not say when it proceeds a vowel, I said when the subsequent word uses a vowel in its pronunciation |
21:28.10 | mockingbird | *preceeds |
21:28.13 | golinux | You say it like"el" |
21:28.21 | mockingbird | yes |
21:28.21 | aitor | so, the rigth way is an LG? |
21:28.23 | mockingbird | exactly |
21:28.26 | mockingbird | yes |
21:28.26 | golinux | and "e" is a vowel |
21:29.13 | mockingbird | Ok I'll try to compile from source... Time to install 1000 compile dependencies lol |
21:29.32 | mockingbird | or maybe I'll try to hack in the Ubuntu PPA |
21:30.36 | mockingbird | ah ok Debian Sid has 2.x |
21:30.45 | mockingbird | So maybe I'll burn a copy of Devuan unstable |
21:30.47 | mockingbird | yea |
21:33.27 | mockingbird | hey what's a good burning app for Devuan? |
21:34.02 | mockingbird | ah here we go xfburn |
21:34.24 | mockingbird | good job devs |
21:34.44 | mockingbird | any pitfalls in unstable anyone wants to mention? |
21:35.51 | Guest97807 | you mean, aside from the fact there's no copy to burn in the first place? |
21:35.59 | mockingbird | lol |
21:36.07 | mockingbird | yea good point |
21:36.12 | mockingbird | How do you obtain Ceres? |
21:36.16 | gnarface | upgrade |
21:36.26 | mockingbird | Would you please tell me the command? |
21:36.29 | gnarface | you probably only need to go to ascii |
21:36.45 | gnarface | last night after you left, there were more things i wanted to suggest but didn't get a chance to |

21:37.13 | gnarface | first of all, that maybe that wifi device missing the firmware package was still the issue, but maybe the firmware pakcage in jessie was too old |
21:37.22 | mockingbird | who are you referring to? |
21:37.27 | gnarface | (i've seen that before; needed to upgrade to ascii to get the wifi working for a 5-year old laptop) |
21:37.33 | gnarface | i'm referring to you |
21:37.47 | mockingbird | You are mistaking me for someone else |
21:37.55 | gnarface | you weren't in here last night with a different handle also trying to get a toughbook to tether to an iphone |
21:37.57 | mockingbird | This is the first time in my life I have been on here |
21:37.57 | gnarface | ? |
21:38.03 | mockingbird | No |
21:38.06 | gnarface | interesting |
21:38.17 | gnarface | ok well then you're not the first person to run into that problem in the last 24 hours |
21:38.21 | gnarface | it might help you to know that |
21:38.25 | mockingbird | ah cool |
21:38.37 | mockingbird | So I got to go to testing first? I can't go straight to unstable? |
21:38.39 | aitor | gnarface is known now as Guest97807 |
21:38.42 | gnarface | also, yes the command is "apt-get update && apt-get upgrade && apt-get dist-upgrade" if you want to be completely pedantic |
21:38.53 | gnarface | yes, like debian, you can't skip releases |
21:39.25 | mockingbird | ok update updates the packages, upgrade goes to testing, then dist-upgrade to unstable?> |
21:39.28 | aitor | sorry, i'm experiencing with the /me command |
21:39.32 | gnarface | just change the sources.list, then run the "apt-get update && apt-get upgrade && apt-get dist-upgrade" command, rinse, repeat (read the release notes if you have anything important on the machine) |
21:39.47 | fsmithred | you can keep ascii in your sources and just add ceres. Most of the packages are the same now, anyway, and I think there are a few cases where ascii has the newer package. |
21:40.04 | aitor | is known now as aitor_ |
21:40.11 | KatolaZ | mockingbird: I would suggest you don't go to ceres at all, if you don't know what apt-get dist-upgrade does.... |
21:40.47 | gnarface | "update" updates the package cache for apt, "upgrade" upgrades all packages in this release, while "dist-upgrade" explicitly also upgrades packages that are from the next release (it's somewhat redundant to "upgrade" first but advised anyway to avoid some obscure package bugs) |
21:41.06 | mockingbird | Excellent thanks |
21:41.19 | gnarface | and yea, for now just go to ascii |

21:42.15 | aitor | the /me command is funny :) |
21:42.21 | gnarface | mockingbird: we never got far enough with the other guy to determine for sure whether the problem was something that had to be fixed by changing the iPhone configuration. weird non-alphanumeric characters in the default SSID were also suspect. |
21:43.00 | mockingbird | oh ok |
21:43.06 | mockingbird | no nothing like that here |
21:43.08 | gnarface | mockingbird: but his hardware required non-free firmware which he had not installed either, because he mistakenly believed it was not required; turns out it was required for WPA2 but not WPA1 - so that's something to check too |
21:43.15 | mockingbird | just a plain jane iPhone 5s |
21:43.19 | mockingbird | no jailbreak or anything like that |

21:44.24 | gnarface | yea i thought you were trying to do wifi tether like he was |
21:44.27 | mockingbird | You mean to say it uses WPA even through USB? |
21:44.31 | mockingbird | ah ok no |
21:44.35 | gnarface | no, i'm sorry i've completely jumped to the wrong conclusion here |

21:45.33 | golinux | mockingbird: You'll need to either upgrade to rsyslog from backports or use syslog-ng or busybox-syslogd before you ugrade to ascii. |
21:46.41 | golinux | (unless of course that troublesome dependency has been finally fixed in the ascii repos) |
21:46.57 | KatolaZ | golinux: it is not needed at all |
21:47.00 | mockingbird | golinux wow thanks thanks |
21:47.16 | KatolaZ | you can use ascii with the version of rsyslog in the repo |
21:47.23 | KatolaZ | mockingbird: ^^^^ |
21:47.28 | mockingbird | I'll try to upgrade it right now from backports |
21:47.33 | KatolaZ | mockingbird: please don't |
21:47.36 | KatolaZ | there is no need |
21:47.48 | KatolaZ | the problem with rsyslogd is only upon a new installation of ascii |
21:47.51 | KatolaZ | not for upgrades |
21:47.52 | mockingbird | ok |
21:47.59 | mockingbird | command erased lol |
21:48.13 | gnarface | KatolaZ: is Beowulf up? |
21:48.22 | KatolaZ | gnarface: not yet |
21:48.24 | mockingbird | let me start with an apt-get update first |
21:48.26 | mockingbird | while we chat |
21:48.59 | golinux | <KatolaZ> the problem with rsyslogd is only upon a new installation of ascii |
21:49.13 | golinux | Didn't realize that was the case. Thanks. |
21:49.20 | KatolaZ | golinux: np :) |
21:49.33 | mockingbird | ok I'm goot to go for an apt-get upgrade (or dist upgrade as they used to recommend)? |
21:49.53 | mockingbird | *good |
21:50.30 | KatolaZ | mockingbird: have you updated your sources.list first? |
21:50.34 | mockingbird | yes |
21:50.38 | mockingbird | it also did it during install |
21:50.47 | mockingbird | apt-get upgrade did nothing |
21:50.52 | mockingbird | Should I try dist-upgrade? |
21:51.11 | KatolaZ | uh? |
21:51.29 | mockingbird | 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded |
21:51.34 | mockingbird | that was for apt-get upgrade |
21:51.55 | mockingbird | hey look at that they still list bootlogd in apt-cache... I wonder if they finally fixed it after 15 years |
21:53.15 | KatolaZ | ? |
21:53.50 | mockingbird | bootlogd - logged boot time messages but stopped working years ago, deprecated, replaced with nothing, and now seemingly available again |
21:53.59 | mockingbird | don't worry about it I was just going off on a tangent |
21:54.14 | mockingbird | but apt-get upgrade did not initiate an upgrade to ascii |
21:54.24 | mockingbird | Shall I try apt-get dist-upgrade? |
21:54.40 | fsmithred | did you update after changing sources? |
21:54.45 | KatolaZ | mockingbird: apt-get upgrade will never initiare an upgrade to a new release... |
21:54.50 | KatolaZ | ~initiate |
21:55.03 | mockingbird | ah ok |
21:55.15 | KatolaZ | unless you have apt-get update-d |
21:55.20 | mockingbird | it's just for package updates then... I need to do dist-upgrade |
21:55.34 | KatolaZ | mockingbird: are you sure you upgraded oyur sources.list? |
21:55.35 | mockingbird | say yes and I will type it in |
21:55.38 | KatolaZ | ~your |
21:55.46 | mockingbird | ah ok ok ok thanks sorry no I forgot one moment please |

21:56.22 | mockingbird | no |
21:56.25 | mockingbird | just rusty |
21:56.33 | gnarface | (i've only seen google and opera packages use /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ though) |
21:56.46 | fsmithred | nothing like diving right in... |
21:57.02 | fsmithred | there's a devuan.list in that dir |
21:57.11 | mockingbird | sources.list.d has only devuan.list and everything is commented out |
21:57.17 | fsmithred | ok |
21:57.22 | mockingbird | indeed, /etc/apt/sources.list seems to be correct here |
21:57.30 | fsmithred | change jessie to ascii |
21:57.45 | mockingbird | in sources.list or devuan.list? |
21:57.51 | fsmithred | sources.list |
21:57.55 | mockingbird | thanks |
21:58.57 | mockingbird | doh forgot to sudo |
21:59.44 | mockingbird | done and done |
21:59.49 | mockingbird | now apt-get upgrade? |
21:59.57 | mockingbird | wait first apt-get update |
21:59.57 | fsmithred | update first |
22:00.01 | mockingbird | then apt-get upgrade? |
22:00.04 | fsmithred | yeah |
22:00.04 | mockingbird | yes thanks |
22:00.10 | fsmithred | or dist-upgrade |
22:00.19 | fsmithred | I've done it both ways |
22:00.34 | mockingbird | I've got to comment my Jessie DVD out first |
22:00.44 | mockingbird | I always get the 4gb ISOs |
22:00.49 | mockingbird | to save download times |
22:01.37 | mockingbird | wow they really cleaned up the Atheros drivers... Look at that 10mbps+/sec |
22:02.52 | mockingbird | question: apt-get upgrade gives only 189mb, dist-upgrade is 700+. What's the difference? |
22:03.12 | fsmithred | upgrade does not install any packages that aren't already installed |
22:03.17 | fsmithred | dist-upgrade does |
22:03.29 | mockingbird | Ah excellent thanks |
22:03.41 | mockingbird | upgrade it is (NOT dist-upgrade) |
22:04.15 | KatolaZ | mockingbird: you must give a dist-upgrade after the upgrade when you change release |
22:04.26 | KatolaZ | (or better, you should) |
22:04.47 | mockingbird | Why is that? apt-cache has all the new packages for the upgraded dist, what's the point? |
22:06.49 | fsmithred | run it with -s (--simulate) to see what you're missing |
22:07.54 | KatolaZ | mockingbird: you might (and will) have more packages added in the new release (see e.g. firefox-esr) |
22:08.31 | mockingbird | fsmithred, KatolaZ: Firefox ESR came installed with Jessie |
22:09.17 | mockingbird | Ok, upgrade done, reboot and then dist-upgrade? |
22:09.38 | fsmithred | did you get a new kernel? |
22:09.44 | fsmithred | look in /boot |
22:11.11 | fsmithred | doesn't really matter if you reboot now or not |
22:11.18 | mockingbird | no |

22:15.42 | mockingbird | Gives you 1GB on an ordinary CD |
22:15.43 | greenjeans | ooh I have all kinds of new places to use the delete hammer on FSR |
22:15.46 | gnarface | mockingbird: the issue is, after you've changed your sources.list to point to the next release, until you "dist-upgrade" you're still stuck on the last release except for packages that are also in the next release - putting you in a unstable halfway state between both releases. 'dist-upgrade' will not only add packages that weren't there before, it may also REMOVE deprecated packages (stuff that would break the release |
22:15.47 | gnarface | if it remained) |
22:16.04 | greenjeans | trying to document a comprehensive list |
22:16.07 | mockingbird | gnarface - brilliant. Thanks |

22:16.22 | mockingbird | (it is doing dist-upgrade right now) |
22:16.46 | fsmithred | cool greenjeans. With the usual package list it's coming out around 780mb |
22:17.04 | mockingbird | it actually only downloaded some 550mb fsmithred |
22:17.10 | mockingbird | it's already at the install point |
22:17.11 | greenjeans | Is that + or - /usr/share/docs? |
22:17.19 | fsmithred | with |
22:17.20 | KatolaZ | 23:11 * greenjeans got a little older this weekend |
22:17.22 | KatolaZ | really? |
22:17.23 | KatolaZ | :D |
22:17.31 | fsmithred | I won't get rid of docs |
22:17.39 | fsmithred | although... |
22:17.39 | greenjeans | yep, fitty-tree now Katolaz |
22:17.41 | mockingbird | I'll just ctrl-c out of the mid-install release notes |
22:17.56 | KatolaZ | greenjeans: this is a good period to get older :P |
22:17.59 | fsmithred | I never use docs, either. Hardly ever. |
22:18.02 | mockingbird | ah you mean refracta ok sorry |
22:18.06 | fsmithred | yeah |
22:18.56 | mockingbird | oops |
22:19.00 | greenjeans | I never do either FSR, most people don't. Main reason is most of those doc packages contain no useable info, just ginormous changelogs and redundant copies of common licenses |
22:19.09 | fsmithred | oh, btw, buttons and borders are deprecated in ascii (in some apps) |
22:19.14 | mockingbird | what a buffoon I am |
22:19.26 | mockingbird | I didn't finish either upgrade or dist-upgrade |
22:19.36 | mockingbird | I killed upgrade by breaking out of the changelogs |
22:19.48 | KatolaZ | mockingbird: just give the command again |
22:19.53 | mockingbird | What is the correct way of proceeding with the install when presented with the changelogs? |
22:20.01 | greenjeans | Katolaz: it really is, interesting times man.... |
22:20.01 | fsmithred | q |
22:20.15 | fsmithred | you're in less, so q gets you out |
22:20.20 | KatolaZ | greenjeans: I know :) |
22:20.21 | mockingbird | ah ok thanks |
22:20.31 | mockingbird | THERE we go |
22:20.38 | mockingbird | now it's crunching |
22:21.23 | greenjeans | FSR: are you leaving in all the locales? |
22:21.36 | mockingbird | Should I stick with nouveau or go to the binaries? What's recommended these days? |
22:21.48 | KatolaZ | greenjeans: he has to, for the live iso... |
22:21.51 | fsmithred | yes, keeping locales in. |
22:22.00 | gnarface | mockingbird: depends on what you're doing with it, and the age of the nvidia device |
22:22.13 | mockingbird | I think it's Pascal (GTX 650) |
22:22.13 | greenjeans | IMO nouveau has been really good the last couple years Mockingbird |
22:22.14 | fsmithred | I already had the whole world pissed off at me for removing them |
22:22.19 | mockingbird | nice |
22:22.31 | KatolaZ | fsmithred: :D |
22:22.41 | kelsoo_ | nouveau work here |
22:22.44 | gnarface | mockingbird: in general, nouveau is better for everything except video decoding and gaming |
22:22.46 | mockingbird | FF is complaining about nouveau in about:support, maybe chromium will be better |
22:22.48 | greenjeans | dang FSR....so is the whole world mad at me for wiping them out in my stuff? |
22:22.52 | kelsoo_ | nouveau works here* |
22:22.53 | mockingbird | yea gnarface |
22:23.09 | fsmithred | here, too |
22:23.32 | fsmithred | not yet. hang around for a couple more years. |
22:23.38 | fsmithred | it'll catch up. |
22:23.49 | KatolaZ | greenjeans: the large majority of the world will always pissed off, whatever oyu do or don't :) |
22:24.07 | greenjeans | I can watch hi-def stuff at home on my Nvidia machine and play DVD's flawlessly with just the nouveau driver now, couldn't do that a few years ago |
22:24.18 | mockingbird | nice greenjeans |
22:24.39 | mockingbird | would still be interested to compare chalkboard benchmark in chromium with nouveau vs binaries |
22:24.39 | fsmithred | gotta go. bbl. |
22:24.45 | greenjeans | bye FSR |
22:24.47 | mockingbird | bye thanks for your help |
22:26.35 | greenjeans | mockingbird: just spitball testing, but every couple years I run tests on both because both my desktops at home are nvidia, I start running high-def video on youtube on lowest setting, then start ramping up until I start getting frames noticeably dropped |
22:27.04 | greenjeans | and two years ago, nouveau stopped failing at 720p |
22:27.04 | gnarface | mockingbird: it would be wildly different depending on whether the GPU was one of the few for which nouveau supports the dynamic reclocking features, and whether opengl-accelerated rendering is enabled in chromium. (you can disable it in firefox, at least, can you for chromium as well? i don't actually know.) |
22:27.57 | mockingbird | ah interesting interesting |
22:28.42 | mockingbird | Yes you can disable it in chrome://flags |
22:28.59 | greenjeans | yep, now I can get 1080p just fine, and that's on an older card, circa 2011 or so, GT 200 series IIRC |
22:29.21 | *** join/#devuan Xenguy (~Xenguy@unaffiliated/xenguy) |
22:29.30 | mockingbird | GT200 that would be G9x silicon |
22:29.48 | greenjeans | FYI i'd disable hardware acceleration in Chromium |
22:30.01 | mockingbird | do you drop frames in stats for nerds (right click on video, stats for nerds) |
22:30.02 | greenjeans | never does work right on any of my machines |
22:30.33 | greenjeans | haven't tried it, haven't even had my desktop online in a year or so |
22:30.45 | mockingbird | if you have a laptop then maybe just disable nVidia and use i915 |
22:31.03 | mockingbird | greenjeans: why? Chromium acceleration blows FF out of the water |
22:31.19 | greenjeans | always causes glitches for me |
22:31.30 | greenjeans | they may take a while to show themselves |
22:31.35 | greenjeans | but always there |
22:31.47 | Xenguy | mockingbird: Is Chromium infected with the Google spyware at all? |
22:32.16 | gnarface | mockingbird: with nouveau, there's some chance that firefox/chrome may actually be *faster* with opengl disabled |
22:32.27 | greenjeans | FYI the Radeon opensource driver has gotten a lot better too IMO |
22:32.28 | mockingbird | yes that's true |
22:32.36 | mockingbird | Xenguy - yes it is |
22:32.45 | Xenguy | It seems to me the last time I researched this, Chromium was a bit entangled in the Google web |
22:33.02 | mockingbird | even without webvince and sync removed it still phones home |
22:33.19 | Xenguy | I had been hoping that it would not be, and that Chromium might be worth trying out |
22:33.24 | mockingbird | gnarface: yes Chrome has a VERY fast software compositor |
22:33.41 | mockingbird | there's a project out there to remove it, but it hasn't gotten anywhere |
22:33.46 | greenjeans | FF has it too, or does last time I checked, first thing it does at first startup is download a ginormous file from google |
22:33.59 | Xenguy | greenjeans: oh no, really? |
22:34.10 | greenjeans | it did last time I used it |
22:34.20 | Xenguy | That might be the option to have FF watch for malicious stuff, or w/e it is |
22:34.32 | Xenguy | I can't remember the exact phrasing right now |
22:34.34 | greenjeans | been a while, I usually use Chromium, but lately have been rockin Palemoon |
22:34.44 | Xenguy | me too greenjeans |
22:35.00 | Xenguy | Working really well for me on both linux and w!ndows |
22:35.01 | greenjeans | Xenguy: yeah, some kind of list of bad sites and such |
22:35.08 | mockingbird | The firefox forks always seem 10 times slower than branch |
22:35.18 | mockingbird | at least in Windows |
22:35.25 | greenjeans | not this one |
22:35.35 | greenjeans | MUCH faster than current FF |
22:35.36 | Xenguy | I find PM is quite snappy, but I haven't opened 500 tabs with it either |
22:35.40 | mockingbird | the devs at Mozilla have some secret sauce for compiling |
22:36.38 | greenjeans | I think the devs at Mozilla have had a little too much of the sauce if you ask me, lol |
22:36.53 | Xenguy | Their marketing dept. took over |
22:36.57 | mockingbird | he he |
22:37.00 | Xenguy | Lost their clue |
22:37.22 | mockingbird | I find you can get pretty good results with Classic Theme Restorer |
22:37.30 | mockingbird | (of course it will be useless after 52 ESR) |
22:38.11 | Xenguy | Well now Mozilla is going to do some info gathering on users' browsing habits or some shite |
22:38.24 | Xenguy | So I'm definitely looking elsewhere |
22:38.40 | Xenguy | Too bad, I have really enjoyed FF and the add-ons over the years |
22:38.52 | mockingbird | hey research that before dumping ff |
22:38.59 | greenjeans | okay I gotta go run and start squashing some new Vuu-do, because it's been like a whole two weeks since the last one, hah! have a good one y'all! |
22:39.00 | Xenguy | I think I have |

22:42.49 | mockingbird | Microsoft is still releasing XP updates |
22:43.05 | mockingbird | In fact, they even released some Server 2003/XP x64 updates last month |
22:43.14 | Xenguy | I suppose they were forced to in the end, but still, let XP die |
22:43.17 | mockingbird | after two years of nothing (was killed in 2015 or so) |

22:52.14 | Xenguy | ? |
22:52.21 | mockingbird | I needed to upgrade to ascii |
22:52.37 | mockingbird | because the libimobiledevice in Jessie is ancient and won't work with my iPhone |
22:52.47 | Xenguy | Still on Jessie here; oh I see |
22:52.47 | mockingbird | and there was no backport |
22:52.52 | mockingbird | ah cool |
22:54.18 | mockingbird | needed something debian-based without systemd |
22:54.24 | mockingbird | this was the result on Google |
22:55.08 | mockingbird | everyone is always praising mint.... but what's the point if you're going to use mint because it's open source, then use windows because mint has systemd |
22:55.29 | Xenguy | Well good luck with it all, it seems to be working as expected here (very Debian experience, pre-systemd) |
22:55.41 | mockingbird | ok my screen might black out, dist-upgrade is going to touch tome xfree86 stuff |
22:55.49 | Xenguy | Yeah and QA on Mint may be a little dodgy |
22:55.52 | mockingbird | thanks |
22:56.02 | mockingbird | do you recompile your kernel? |
22:56.06 | Xenguy | No |
22:56.16 | mockingbird | It would be great to get some help with that (all the online guides are antiquated) |
22:56.21 | mockingbird | ah ok |
22:56.25 | Xenguy | I did that until I knew how, then took the lazy route |
22:56.36 | mockingbird | what is the lazy route? Targetted install? |
22:56.48 | Xenguy | Accept default kernel |
22:56.54 | mockingbird | ah |
22:56.57 | mockingbird | he he |
22:57.11 | mockingbird | I've always been passionate about not using modules when I don't have to |
22:57.19 | Xenguy | Compiling kernels only remains fascinating for so long ; -) |
22:57.31 | mockingbird | but heck, they make recompiling the kernel these days as confusing as putting humpty dumpty back together again |
22:57.47 | Xenguy | It's been awhile since I tried |
22:57.48 | mockingbird | no one bothers to update the explanations in the wizard for the drivers |
22:58.01 | mockingbird | stuff gets deprecated without explanation |
22:58.09 | Xenguy | Sounds sloppy |
22:58.11 | mockingbird | then you have to guess if you really need something |
22:58.13 | gnarface | mockingbird: you can just 'apt-get source [package]' for the current kernel, make your changes to that, and rebuild it with kernel-package |
22:58.21 | *** join/#devuan rrq (~ralph@60-242-139-200.static.tpgi.com.au) |
22:58.40 | mockingbird | so as an example (as this probably does not hold true), if you delete firewire support, you may be removing say serial support too |
22:58.55 | gnarface | mockingbird: it now also has some automated build scripts builtin, but the docs on those are the ones that are hard to find, and kernel-package is still more reliable |
22:58.55 | mockingbird | gnarface - thanks |
22:59.10 | mockingbird | gnarface - yes I have tried the automated script in the past |
22:59.22 | mockingbird | I think it has been broken for many years now and no one has bothered to fix it |
22:59.26 | gnarface | i forget but the call looks something like debian/rules build? |
22:59.44 | mockingbird | I think I tried kernel package too and it was broken |
22:59.48 | mockingbird | maybe they fixed that |
22:59.55 | gnarface | i'm not sure if it's actually broken. i think nobody has bothered to update the documentation because the only people left at Debian are all about pulling the ladder up behind them, that's what i think. |
22:59.56 | mockingbird | but it did not streamline properly |
23:00.15 | gnarface | kernel-package is just picky about what you name the local version string |
23:00.32 | mockingbird | yea what did that kernel developer who quit years ago say (I think his name started with Kon or something like that) |
23:01.03 | mockingbird | they spend all their time fixing a small bug for a huge corporation that has no negligible effect on the rest of desktop users, and then ignore desktop users when they have serious problems |
23:01.31 | mockingbird | yes but does it update all the other stuff automatically? |
23:01.55 | mockingbird | I can't point to specifics, but I'm sure I could gather the correct nomenclatures if I went through it again |
23:02.04 | mockingbird | but something was very, very broken with it the last time I tried |
23:02.28 | mockingbird | The only thing I want to have to go through with a re-compilation is picking what I want as part of the kernel and what I want as a module |
23:02.39 | *** join/#devuan Besnik_b (~Besnik@ppp-94-66-221-138.home.otenet.gr) |
23:02.57 | mockingbird | and not guessing what they changed in this version that forces me to update some weird far-flung file to avoid a kernel panic on the next reboot after re-compiling |
23:03.20 | gnarface | hmmm. kernel-package may create a package that isn't tethered to the right dependencies, that's possible i think, but if you name/number your local version string following the rules, then installing the next officially packaged kernel release should re-establish the dependencies cleanly and not be choked by the presence of your custom kernel |
23:03.36 | mockingbird | ok if I don't answer in the next minute it's because dist-upgrade has blacked my screen updating xorg |
23:04.07 | mockingbird | gnarface - definitely worth a try, thanks |
23:04.08 | gnarface | when you go to build your custom kernel, DO use the debian source package to customize the stock kernel build, rather than installing a vanilla kernel. that will help stuff a bit |
23:04.22 | mockingbird | always the debian source |
