| me7743912 | Okay, so everything is going smoothly. About to select the init. I've run open-RC before on Gentoo and runit on Void, but mever tried sysV before. Any suggestions. | 00:06 |
|---|---|---|
| me7743912 | ? | 00:06 |
| me7743912 | I'm going with xfce if that helps | 00:07 |
| me77210892 | I pushed something and disconnected myself. I went with sysVinit. Everything seems to be working perfectly fine with xfce | 00:13 |
| me77210892 | xfce uses less than half the resources of gnome. Another reason I like it | 00:17 |
| me77210892 | Well this is exciting! First time I've ever had Devuan up and running on bare metal | 00:18 |
| me77210892 | I really appreciate everyone's help. Thanks so much! Signing off | 00:25 |
| grayrock | gnome strikes again... | 00:42 |
| Xenguy | Yeah, why anyone would run GNOME after all the problems they've caused is beyond me | 01:50 |
| golinux | It goes even higher to freedesktop.org | 01:56 |
| golinux | All the GTK misery comes from there too. BTW . . . we are OT for this channel | 01:57 |
| golinux | One final link: https://igurublog.wordpress.com/2012/11/05/gnome-et-al-rotting-in-threes/ | 01:58 |
| golinux | The rot is nothing new. | 01:58 |
| golinux | grayrock: ^^^ | 01:58 |
| ted-ious | me77309123 had never run sysvinit before? | 02:13 |
| ted-ious | Statements like that can make a person feel old at 24 or maybe even earlier. | 02:14 |
| rwp | I feel certain most people have actually used sysvinit and never known it. Except for shutdown most users do not otherwise interact with init. | 02:36 |
| gnarface | someone should have told nusio "yes, and it already is" but they didn't wait long enough. | 06:37 |

| Xenguy | f3n1x, : -) | 14:44 |
| blizzow | I'm using the debian raspberry image. I tried installing raspi-firmware and it's puking saying that /boot/firmware isn't mounted. I see /dev/sda1 mounted at /boot/broadcom. Should I symlink /boot/firmware to that, or is there something else I should be doing for the /boot/firmware directory. | 19:30 |
| blizzow | ? | 19:30 |
| buZz | why do you want to install raspbian packages on not-raspbian? | 19:31 |
| blizzow | buZz, I was hoping the raspbian firmware would help me resolve some GPU not found messages I get when starting firefox, prusa-slicer... | 19:33 |
| buZz | blizzow: there's no OpenGL GPU in a raspberry pi | 19:34 |
| buZz | blizzow: i'd recommend running raspbian on a raspberry pi | 19:34 |
| buZz | if you want to use broadcom's weirdass GPU nonsense, that is | 19:35 |
| blizzow | I'm not defending broadcom's GPU or choices but, if I can make my OS run faster with it - I'd like to peer into the rabbit hole. | 19:39 |
| buZz | blizzow: https://www.raspberrypi.com/software/operating-systems/ | 19:48 |
| blizzow | I mean, yeah, I could run a 'raspberry' distro - I was hoping to use Devuan. | 19:51 |
| buZz | then stick to devuan packages ;) | 19:54 |
| buZz | distros dont mix well | 19:54 |
| aitor_ | buZz: *i like that gnuinos has a typo on their frontpage > we would like to thank the whole Devuan commutity* | 23:12 |
| aitor_ | thanks buZz, I fixed it yesterday | 23:12 |
| aitor_ | *community* | 23:13 |
| aitor_ | I need to reboot | 23:13 |
| buZz | welcome :) | 23:14 |
