digit | hi, having a few bumps along the road trying to get nvidia working. is there an official devuan guide to that? (have failed to find, so far... still looking) ... there's not, is there... just debian? :/ some of it seems wrong for devuan. | 10:01 |
---|---|---|
zatumil | whats wrong? | 10:03 |
gnarface | digit: don't you just install the packages named nvidia-*? | 10:45 |
digit | zatumil: what's wrong was that i simply lacked a clear complete guide. muddling through the bumps at pace though, piecing together tips from searches. gnarface: once added non-free and contrib to my apt sources conf... though idk if that alone's sufficient... perhaps especially with my own unique non-standard quirks to this system. ... which is why an official devuan guide to follow would have been handy to know if it works as | 10:55 |
digit | should, or if my quirks are causing problems. | 10:55 |
zatumil | try this https://wiki.debian.org/NvidiaGraphicsDrivers | 11:04 |
_abc_ | It appears that ESR was kicked from OSI mailing list(s) due to his position on clauses 5 and 6 of https://opensource.org/docs/definition.php -- that list of clauses is mostly at the root of debian. On which devuan is built. Was there a discussion here on the clauses and or ESR's booting? | 14:55 |
_abc_ | 9 and 10 are conflicting imo for example. Not going to discuss it here anyway. Was there any discussion or is this off topic here? | 14:57 |
_abc_ | ESR's diatribe is here http://esr.ibiblio.org/?p=8609 -- he also was one of the founders of OSI -- and they booted him, of all people. | 14:58 |
onefang | This is a support channel, so that's off topic here. | 15:00 |
mason | _abc_: You're welcome to come to #debianfork to discuss it, or you could just read the normal reference material on the topic: https://geekz.co.uk/lovesraymond/wp-content/images/ep013.jpg | 16:19 |
* _abc_ regrets Linus's diatribes on the kml. | 16:29 | |
mason | _abc_: Anything not specifically about Devuan is better sent to #debianfork. | 16:30 |
hemimaniac | I just started running devuan as my main OS, impressed so far, my first question is, during the install I enabled the Package popularity option and I was wondering if there was a matching forum thread or a 'wishlist' of sorts? I came across a couple threads for wants but they seemed to point more to the installer and live media. | 17:01 |
djph | the popularity thing is, IIRC, one of those things that lets the devteam see what's being installed ... I never liked it | 17:02 |
djph | also, stop following me around | 17:02 |
hemimaniac | djph: HAR HAR | 17:03 |
hemimaniac | i was more talking of a wishlist for future additions to the repo | 17:04 |
mason | hemimaniac: https://popcon.debian.org/ if you haven't seen it | 17:04 |
mason | I haven't followed whether Devuan popcon data goes to Debian or not - I think it came up recently. | 17:04 |
hemimaniac | will look, thanks mason | 17:05 |
sedrosken | So, I'm looking to roll a Beowulf system on pure OpenRC-init. My plan of action is to start with as minimal of a system as I can and switch to OpenRC-init as early as possible to minimize show-stopping complications before installing and working out stuff as I need. | 17:09 |
sedrosken | so, install with ascii netinst, then change mirrors and dist-upgrade, then migrate over | 17:09 |
hemimaniac | sedrosken: why not get the beowulf netinstall and roll openrc from the get go? | 17:11 |
sedrosken | because i didn't know the beowulf netinst was ready yet! thanks for telling me! | 17:11 |
sedrosken | from what I understood beowulf is about as close to "stable" as it gets without actually *being* stable | 17:12 |
