14:41.54andre__errm, trying to upgrade to latest CSSU testing I'm told that I need Nokia PC Suite?
14:42.02andre__not that I have any Windows machine around...
14:43.03merlin1991andre__: update the operator name thingy first
14:43.05andre__ah. That was triggered by some "Operator widget" update that was also available.
14:43.21andre__yeah. after doing that separately now the CSSU update works. thanks
14:43.39merlin1991also pc suite never ever is the right answer, it's just hams way of saying I give up :P

14:59.20kerioi'll not be here later on either
14:59.26freemangordonwell, ok
14:59.34kerioi'm going to see radiohead ^______^
15:00.29SpacedOutPali: I sent an e-mail "power-kernel pull request for suspend to ram fixes" any chance to look at it?
15:01.59freemangordonSpacedOut: is that you to clone kernel-cssu?
15:02.42PaliI got email, but did not looked at it
15:02.51Palinow going to look at patches
15:02.53SpacedOutYes I cloned it and added my changes to what Pali had for the power-kernel.
15:03.23freemangordonSpacedOut: I looked into the commits, but TBH didn't get the idea
15:03.37SpacedOutThe fix is pretty small, making the usb driver a module is much larger.
15:03.54Palifirst patch - autokick watchdog -> not needed -> we can disable watchdogs with root access
15:04.32Palijust load watchdog kernel module with nowayout=0 param and send disable watchdog command
15:04.34SpacedOutThat's fine I definitely didn't want the watchdog change enabled by default and so the patch series has it disabled.
15:05.37SpacedOutI didn't know that.
15:07.11SpacedOutI organized the patches I cared about the most as the earliest patches, through 'pvr cleanup' was just because I got tired of seeing warnings.
15:13.56Palifreemangordon, I can add that patches to kernel power prerelease version
15:14.30freemangordonPali: besides PVR patch, what we benefit from the other patches?
15:16.08freemangordonPali: BTW are you here for the next few hours?
15:16.22SpacedOutSuspend to ram is better behaved.  If anyone is trying to do any usb development or fixes they can reload the module instead of having to reboot.
15:16.23Paliyes, I'm here
15:16.41freemangordonPali: will you point luf to http://merlin1991.at/~freemangordon/

15:24.40Paliusing socketpair
15:24.58Paliit create two connected sockets

17:32.38fw190DocScrutinizer: helo
17:34.54DocScrutinizer05EHLO
17:35.30fw190what do you think about openSuse?
17:35.46DocScrutinizer05should I think about it?
17:35.59DocScrutinizer05I'm just using it
17:36.17fw190well I'm on Ubuntu and I'm wondering what should I use instead
17:36.31fw190so I'm asking here and there
17:36.34fw190;)
17:36.48DocScrutinizer05I hate buntkuh, it's way too "me-too" windows'mockup
17:37.45fw190and how about security and end user experience?
17:37.52fw190on openSuse?
17:37.56DocScrutinizer05In my book canonical hijacked linux just like android did
17:38.44DocScrutinizer05I'm content with end user experience on openSuse, and security is pretty good
17:39.11fw190on Ubuntu  have to tweka to many things and I'm not shure if Idid it ok
17:39.17fw190I mean the security stuf
17:40.34DocScrutinizer05on suse this is all preconfigured to a rather reasonable security setup, and there are convenient tools to do your own config that's maybe even more strict than the several defaults you can pick from
17:41.21Skryfw190: do you want lightweight, bleeding edge, stable and beginner friendly or something for more advanced user?
17:41.31Skrydistrowise
17:41.37fw190Skry: the first option
17:41.56fw190light, stable, frindly and Secure
17:42.02tadzikin my experience bleeding edge & stable doesn't really work together
17:43.20Skryfw190: linux mint xfce edition
17:44.13fw190tadzik: so what do you propose?
17:44.40fw190Skry: so no i Have openSuse - Doc and Mint- you ;)
17:45.21Skryfw190: get your usb stick around and try them both
17:45.56SkryI use arch linux myself, which I recommend if you know your way in linux general
17:46.13tadzikfw190: to make up your mind :) Do you want a stable system or having new stuff ASAP
17:46.35tadzikI find debian testing to be a reasonable compromise
17:47.00fw190debian-ubuntu - isn't it the same
17:47.06Skrynope
17:47.09fw190setting it up is not so easy
17:47.20fw190and even LTS is messy for me
17:47.32tadzikArch linux I'd recommend if you don't mind things breaking, don't need to do anything important, and have too much time on your hands
17:47.33fw190libre office gives problems and Unity...
17:47.51fw190tadzik: I don't have time
17:47.59fw190the machine has to work flawlesly and be secure
17:48.23tadzikeveryone wants that, isn't that so? :)
17:48.56tadzikif you want stuff secure, going bleeding edge is a no-go imho
17:49.04fw190true
17:49.16fw190openSuse sounds interesting
17:49.31tadziksecurity updates ship fast even in stable distos
17:49.56fw190I mean setting the system up to be secure ;)
17:50.14tadzikthat you can do everywhere
17:50.47tadzikseriously, linux distros aren't _that_ different from each other. Package management and maintainers sanity varies, but most stuff doesn't
17:50.59Skrytadzik: your view of Arch is based on what? :o
17:51.06tadzikSkry: on my experience with it
17:51.37tadzikI could rant on it for hours, but that's probably not the best place for it :)
17:54.15fw190ah
17:54.18Skryyeah, propsbly. My experiences are just the opposite. It's been my choice for few years now, because it does not break, is stable, is rolling.
17:54.27fw190tru- what would be the ebst place to rant about distros for me?
17:54.41DocScrutinizer05fw190: if you need rock solid stable secure stuff, you might want to go for suse SLED ( https://www.suse.com/de-de/products/desktop/?url=http%25253A%25252F%25252Fwww.novell.com%25252Finc%25252Ffeedback%25252Ffeedback.jsp )
17:55.01tadzikSkry: so you're one of those people for whom it doesn't constantly break – lucky you :)
17:55.22fw190DocScrutinizer05: thanks, I will have a look wht this devile is
17:55.27tadzikin my case it was a fucking nightmare. Things were breaking all the time, every update was filled with fear
17:55.43tadzikyou felt that nothing can possibly go wrong, and they screwed up Gtk theming or goddamn vim
17:56.50fw190DocScrutinizer: this is in German - in German I can only read aout aviation
17:57.04fw190how much does it cost?
17:57.28*** join/#maemo-ssu toxaris (~toxaris@s83-180-246-172.cust.tele2.se)
17:58.38DocScrutinizer05https://www.suse.com/products/desktop/
17:59.22DocScrutinizer05fw190: linux is for free, as usual. It's the support that costs
17:59.30Skrytadzik: I had the same experience with fedora :) Anyways, I agree it requires more time in maintenance and setup than most other distros, and there are times when things are in bad shape, too bad you happened to try arch in such state.
17:59.35DocScrutinizer05you don't need support to use SLED
18:00.08tadzikSkry: I was returning to it a few times, and things are better then they were e.g. 3 years ago
18:00.17tadzikbut it's still a bit too exciting for my taste :)
18:00.27DocScrutinizer05otoh SLED is just the yesterday's openSuse ;-D
18:01.20fw190DocScrutinizer: so I can have openSuse for free but without support
18:02.39DocScrutinizer05openSuse is free per definitionem. It's the community front of development, and suse enterprise is cherrypicking from that and selling it incl support, for mission critical installations, business etc
18:03.47fw190ah so something very different then Ubuntu
18:03.48DocScrutinizer05I think they might add some administration tools on top which are non-FOSS
18:04.13fw190can I set up openSuse next to my ubuntu to have a test?
18:04.17DocScrutinizer05to manage whole company IT of several hundered or thousand desktop PC
18:04.27DocScrutinizer05hmm
18:04.40DocScrutinizer05you can run a live-CD
18:05.10tadzikyou can setup as many distros at once as many you have partitions, really
18:06.17DocScrutinizer05https://www.suse.com/communities/#communities_opensource
18:06.26Skrytadzik: yeah, it was pretty hard times back then. The rolling release model with somewhat bleeding edge stuff can bring trouble from time to time.
18:06.40DocScrutinizer05https://www.suse.com/download-linux/
18:07.59Skryfw190: please give mint xfce a chance too, it based on debian and ubuntu and is lightweight and it should just work.
18:08.37fw190tommorrow I have ot make some live cd of the systems you propose to me and give them all a test
18:10.29Skryfw190: and if xfce is too lightweight for you, you can try the other editions too. I've been linux user from late 90's and have found mint to be perfect distro for beginners and people who like everything to just work with minimal effort.
18:11.00Skrybut in general you should try many distros to find something that suits just you, thats pretty much the point here
18:14.07DocScrutinizer05Skry: so what's your ponts of critics regarding suse?
18:14.12DocScrutinizer05points*
18:14.59fw190maemo brought me to ubuntu but it fails to often for me
18:15.20DocScrutinizer05I usually found just everything working ootb extremaly conventiently
18:16.25DocScrutinizer05localisation works, desktop works, even preconfiguration of mail etc works to a pretty convenient degree
18:16.33myuu__oh yeah Skry
18:16.57DocScrutinizer05and system admin centralized in yast is a contrast like day to night vs what ubuntu and the like offers
18:16.58myuu__what did you decide on the for hardware accel Xorg
18:17.28fw190DocScrutinzer: you have strong poins which bring my attention to openSuse
18:17.39fw190points
18:22.32DocScrutinizer05of course there's a downside to that and I don't want to hide it: each time I'm administrating some non-suse server or desktop box, I actually have to read man pages to look up correct use of silly simple things like adduser etc
18:22.44DocScrutinizer05I'm not used to using it ;-)
