00:06.59phoggFatPhil: nano seems like a reasonable choice as console editor that the uninitiated can figure out. Those in the know can install something better. Do you know of another console editor that's lighter and as friendly?
00:11.43deefromif people don't like nano as default editor, they should want it changed to ed. ed is the true unix default editor. nano is fine.
00:12.30chillfanI sense a likely outbreak of editor wars

00:13.54FatPhilI think learning a bit of vi should be compulsory. It strengthens you as a human to swear at modality a few hundred times.
00:14.18MinceRhttps://www.gnu.org/fun/jokes/ed-msg.en.html
00:15.23FatPhilI'm not sure I ever used ed at all. The Suns and the Vaxen both had emacs when I was cutting my teeth.
00:16.08phoggdeefrom++
00:16.40phoggFatPhil: without risking starting an editor war I disagree very strongly. On systems where my choice is vi and ed I use ed.
00:17.01chillfanIf you're frustrated editors, just use notepad.exe under wine.
00:17.20phogg...to the extent that any mention of editors can occur without risking an editor war, that is.
00:17.24FatPhilchillfan: most of my systems are headless
00:17.48msiismif i'm not mistaken, the new version of nano in devuan ascii will even offer line numbers. what a leap.
00:17.59chillfanan unsandboxed dosemu and edit then
00:18.08FatPhilso console editors over ssh are where it's at. I notice ed isn't even installed by default on devuan
00:18.48chillfannor on debian since wheezy as far as I remember
00:19.12*** join/#devuan primalz (~rimalz@unaffiliated/primalz)
00:19.56FatPhilnext time I'm in the office, I'll power up an ed then, to see how it compares to nano
00:21.04chillfanIf you really want to feel empowered.. cat > filename << EOF
00:21.11FatPhilI do use vi on my phone, and zile (very lightweight emacsalike) on real machines.
00:21.34*** join/#devuan menip (~menip@c-73-83-2-241.hsd1.wa.comcast.net)
00:21.50EHeMEmacs seems a reasonable OS, it merely needs a decent text editor.
00:21.51FatPhilmy typing is so terrible, it would need to be a line editor, else there would be hundreds of backspace
00:22.54chillfanwith all due respect, emacs and all it's repos should be sent to /dev/null.
00:22.56MinceRafaik there's a decent text editor for emacs, it's called "evil"
00:23.50FatPhilchillfan: the problem is that I've been using emacs since the 1980s, so it's kinda hard to drop.
00:23.50phoggFatPhil: ed assumes your screen is a paper printer. You are unlikely to enjoy it.
00:24.00rrqwhen you want to make untrained people mess with configuration files, then nano is in fact a good choice; the only(?) one that comes with on-screen manual.
00:24.09*** join/#devuan theLambda (~theLambda@200116b82ba1b20006a316fffeb9b24d.dip.versatel-1u1.de)
00:24.24FatPhilon-screen manual is good. uEmacs used to have that too.
00:24.36phoggrrq: pretty sure ee has an onscreen prompt, too, but who installs ee?
00:24.48rrq:)
00:25.58EHeMI've used editors similar to `ed`, not particularly pleasant, but they do work.
00:26.46FatPhilbusybox vi is so simple and lightweight that there's little reason to need anything more lightweight.
00:27.10chillfanbetter yet use echo and newline separators and just use stdout to write the file
00:27.15greenjeanslove me some nano, a must-have IMO
00:27.29FatPhilthat's what I use on my phone. It's configured a little bit too lightweight, though, doesn't have 'u', alas.
00:27.44phoggEHeM: every now and then I get stuck on a terminal with a dead slow ssh connection to the other side of the world. When the keystroke echo time is >3 seconds I'm glad I can use ed.
00:28.04greenjeansvim is annoying
00:28.25greenjeansbut I use a GUI editor 99% of the time for everything
00:28.31FatPhilYeah, I'm just in shock. I've not used nano for about 5 years, and suddenly devuan thrust it in my face (despite me installing alternative editors) - it's PTSD.
00:28.43greenjeansetc/alternatives
00:28.50greenjeansdon't have to live with it
00:29.13phoggand now we're full circle
00:29.19FatPhilyeah, that's how the conversation started - I found alternatives help to be sub-standard
00:29.27greenjeanspluma is my favorite
00:29.40msiismgreenjeans: every tried medit?
00:29.49greenjeanseasy peasy: update-alternatives
00:30.10greenjeansmsiism: nope
00:30.16fsmithredFatPhil, blame debian
00:30.16FatPhilyeah, but what is "switch the master link <name> to automatic mode." supposed to mean?
00:30.18phoggupdate-alternatives usage *is* a bit less than optimal, but at least it's not as bad as update-rc.d
00:30.29msiismgreenjeans: medit is the better-than-pluma editor on my system.
00:30.35*** join/#devuan tsuggs (~tsuggs@74.171.24.60)
00:30.42greenjeanscool, i will try it then
00:30.51fsmithredI used medit for awhile and liked it
00:31.16msiismi use it for all things that have to do with programming
00:31.28greenjeansfsr: new Refracta-tools out yet?
00:31.39fsmithredswitched to using geanie because it's a little bit smaller, and I started packing it in live isos
00:31.42fsmithrednot yet
00:31.57greenjeansboo
00:32.00EHeMI generally have $EDITOR set and rarely allow things to go for defaults so I pretty well ignore the editor alternatives.
00:32.01greenjeanslol
00:32.03FatPhilmost of my editing is coding, so for "heavy" editor, I like syntax highlighting, and smart indenting (configurable to different coding styles).
00:32.05fsmithredbeen working on cli installer for the last couple days
00:32.13fsmithredprobably ran it 100 times
00:32.47fsmithredsomebody in this channel complained that it did not make up for deficient grub that does not tell you why it fails when you use gtp with bios boot
00:32.55greenjeansgeany is okay, may switch to it soon as pluma is going all gtk3
00:33.18msiismmedit is also gtk2
00:33.42fsmithredmedit has a much better icon than geanie
00:33.47greenjeanswhy does gtk3 theming have to be such a major production? did somebody actually think it was progress?
00:34.23EHeMI've read claims the folks behind GTK3 have been actively breaking themes.
00:34.32chillfanimo.. gtk any version is plain ugly for the most parrt
00:34.38greenjeansokay i gotta run, Mrs. greenjeans says it's time to go HOME!
00:34.45greenjeansnight all
00:34.45fsmithredbye
00:34.59fsmithredbrb
00:37.13FatPhiloooh, I've just thought of something I can stick in my .profile in my shared home directory, and it will work on any of my hosts: export EDITOR=`which zile || which jed || which vim || which vi`

01:53.36specingHow does one solve "apt-get failed (100)" given by tasksel?
01:54.03specingand/or how to install xfce? I'm on ascii
01:58.56chillfanDo you want a full xfce install?
02:00.03chillfanplease pastebin the full error, that will give a better idea what that means
02:01.18specingThat is the full error
02:01.29chillfanis that it hm odd lol
02:01.47chillfananyway you can get a full xfce install by installing xfce4 slim and desktop-base
02:01.50specingI've tried apt-getting xfce4 and that downloaded about 140MB and unpacked 600, but I don't know how to start it
02:02.01specingah, those were missing
02:02.10chillfanas a regular user you can use the startxfce4 script
02:02.27chillfandesktop-base is artwork just so you know
02:02.28specingonly slim apparently
02:03.17specingfatal server error ;p
02:03.29specingcannot open tty0 on startxfce4
02:03.42specingcould be missing groups
02:03.45chillfanyou may need xserver-xorg-legacy package
02:04.02chillfanin order to start the xserver that way
02:04.28*** join/#devuan crimeboy (~niobium@unaffiliated/crimeboy)
02:05.28specingstarting slim service works and gets me into xfce
02:05.58chillfanyeah, that's good too
02:06.16specingAnyway thank you, I was hoping xfce4 would make qemu vnc clipboard sharing work, but apparently not

02:07.51HurgotronHi guys, I'm just a *little* bit confused.... I'm looking for the file amd64-microcode_3.20160316.3_amd64.deb, where do I find it? (can't find the binaries at all in the repoitory tree...)
02:08.35chillfanYou should grab the latest version from AMD and drop the relevant file for your cpu into /lib/firmware/
02:09.55chillfanbut if you have the non-free repos enabled you can try apt-get install amd64-microcode
02:10.23Hurgotronprobably. But I would like to access the .deb via wget and was unable to find it somehow.
02:10.37fsmithredthat version is in ascii and ceres
02:10.55Hurgotronfsmithred: Probably. But where?
02:10.57chillfanYou can grab it from packages.debian.org
02:11.01fsmithredapt-get -t ascii download amd64-microcode
02:11.10HurgotronJust give me an URL and I'm happy.
02:11.13chillfanor that yeah heh
02:13.12HurgotronGuys, I like to know how stuff works. "pool" (where I usually find the packages with Debian) is empty in my Devuan repoitory. Still things seem to work. I prefer not to have to go after apt-get with a debugger or a proxy.
02:13.43HurgotronSo lease just give me an URL for *some* .dev in the *Devuan* repo and I'm happy.
02:13.51Hurgotron.deb
02:14.26fsmithredpackages.debian.org - there's a nice web interface for finding the file
02:14.31fsmithredyou can then use wget
02:14.46HurgotronI'm using a Devuan repo though.
02:14.59fsmithredyes, you should only use devuan in sources. list
02:15.10HurgotronYes. I know.
02:15.13fsmithredbut most of the packages come from debian, through a filter
02:15.27fsmithredamprolla handles all that for you
02:16.10Hurgotronso if I do apt-get install mmv it comes from an Debian repo even though I don't have that in my list?
02:16.15HurgotronHard to believe.
02:16.19fsmithredyes
02:17.15fsmithredI think the source code for amprolla3 is on git.devuan.org if you're interested
02:18.22*** join/#devuan georg-gast-2 (~georg@nebka.physik.tu-chemnitz.de)
02:18.32fsmithreddo apt-cache policy <package> or other way to look at the version, and the packages that devuan has changed have +devuan in the version number
02:18.48fsmithredit's a small percentage of the packages

10:12.21smakelig2im having truble booting up my snapshot.iso ... im getting lots and lots of "cat: can't open 'sys/block/*/removable' : No such file or directory" then im stuck in some BusyBox shell which says /bin/sh: can't acces tty: job control turned of  (initramfs) Unable to find a medium containing a live file system    modprobe: module ehci-orion not in modules.deb   ...i have no idea how to fix this
10:14.17parazydwhat is snapshot.iso?
10:14.35smakelig2the output from refractasnapshot
10:22.22debdoghmm, I think I've had a similar problem with refracta in a VM. rebuilding the initramfs solved it. though I have no clue atm how to do that with a .iso file
10:25.23smakelig2i could rebulild and simply make a new snapshot
10:25.30fsmithredyes, that would be the way
10:25.40smakelig2so how to rebuild initramfs??
10:25.44fsmithredjust woke up, so I don't have any great ideas right now
10:25.50fsmithredupdate-initramfs -u
10:25.55smakelig2ty
10:26.22fsmithrednext time run it in debug mode
10:26.45fsmithredrefractasnapshot -d (or refractasnapshot-gui -d)_
10:27.08fsmithredthat will make a more verbose log
10:27.22fsmithredthen paste it somewhere and I'll take a look at it
10:27.46fsmithreddebdog, I need to re-write that readme
10:29.00fsmithredand don't go looking up ehci-orion - it always says that when it fails,
10:29.13debdogoh, i remember now, in my case it was a tad more complicated. I was creating a pen drive with a devuan system on it for rescue stuff (since even grml moved to systemd). did that on a laptop without HDD, so only USB devices involved.

13:05.56koollmanspecing: intel is more vulnerable than others. one attack is intel-specific

16:42.42blinkdogyeah, it sounds functional, but perhaps a pain in the butt to modify in the future
16:42.57fsmithredthe future is here
16:43.16fsmithredI spent the last three days working on the installer, so stuff has been moved around and/or changed
16:43.21blinkdogis there any way to rewrite that hostname check so that it plays nicely with xgettext ?
16:43.24fsmithredand a few new lines added
16:43.32fsmithredmaybe; I didn't try
16:44.09fsmithredI thought I could get away without it, because the hostname command takes care of that, but the script doesn't use the command - it just edits /etc/hostname and /etc/hosts

16:54.23ServiceRobotso I did a bit of digging, and it appears runit has not been fully migrated away from sysvinit on devuan

16:56.35ServiceRobotunless /etc/runit/no-emulate-sysv exists, but I can’t find any information on this file

17:15.01golinuxI wanted to pass along this link.  More digging for you to do.
17:15.01ServiceRobot_ay
17:15.06golinuxhttp://skarnet.org/lists/
17:15.32ServiceRobot_ah, skarnet. I took a look at s6. hardly anything supports it
17:15.44golinuxThey mention runit
17:15.58golinuxdon't know in what capacity
17:16.22ServiceRobot_they mention it in terms of it being simpler than s6, but having no proper “hooks”
17:16.40golinuxLook at the supervision list
17:16.50ServiceRobot_not that I need any. runit looks like the best option for me
17:17.43golinuxThat's the last place I can think of for you to perhaps find what you're looking for.
17:17.45ServiceRobot_the problem is the implementation for runit currently being used. it relies on sysvinit services
17:18.04golinuxYes, I saw that above.
17:18.26golinuxOK.  That's it from me.
17:18.56ServiceRobot_If I can figure out how to make it work without it, I’m wondering how I can suggest some changes for devuan runit?
17:20.22golinuxMaybe on the devuan-dev channel?
17:20.53ServiceRobot_all packages are pulled and from debian, correct?
17:20.55golinuxIn any case, it won't be happening for ascii.  Under consideration for beowulf.
17:21.06ServiceRobot_just recompiled without systemd?
17:21.28golinuxWe also have devuan specific packages and altered Debian packages
17:21.41ServiceRobot_what won’t be happening? init changes?
17:21.57golinuxNot in ascii
17:22.16ServiceRobot_that’s fine. I can figure something else out until then
17:22.18golinuxPerhaps in beowulf
17:24.53ServiceRobot_well, for beowulf I recommend making it so I can remove sysvinit completely and still retain usability in other init systems
17:25.11ServiceRobot_as well as porting in more runit services
17:26.06golinuxGood idea
17:26.29golinuxBut that is a bit beyond the scope of this channel
