sfoxhttp://dpaste.com/5EV9VMEV200:54
sfoxdoes anyone have an example init script with LSB tags?00:55
golinuxLots of init script talk the last few days on dng https://lists.dyne.org/lurker/mindex/dng@20380101.000000.00000000.en.html00:56
golinuxMaybe you'll find something on the lists posted there . . .00:57
golinuxIt just needs a few pixels01:01
golinuxoops, wrong channel01:01
rustyaxesfox: /etc/init.d has plenty of examples01:02
jonadabHe's not wrong that it really should be included in the package though, or failing that there should be a monero-sysvinit package or somesuch.01:50
jonadabThat's assuming the base monero package came from the correct repo, not from, like, Ubuntu or something.01:51
golinuxjonadab: You do know that Debian is removing sysvinit scripts with a vengeance . . .01:55
jonadabUgh.01:56
jonadabOf course they are.01:56
jonadabKnew that would happen eventually.01:56
golinuxHence the conversation on the dng mail list posted above.01:56
jonadabI see.01:56
jonadabI don't have a working web browser here at the moment because $longstory, so I will have to read up on that later.01:56
golinuxThe archives will be there. :)01:57
jonadabYeah.01:57
manchotwhat the hype about Flatpak? is it anything useful or is it just another *D?04:37
gnarfacemanchot: we try to reserve this channel for support issues. ask in #devuan-offtopic04:38
manchotunderstood. I thought flatpak is in debian so it is in devuan? anyway, I am off to offtopic ;-)04:39
gnarfacei thought it was not in debian actually04:39
gnarfacehmm, seems like i'm wrong. maybe it is; i'm seeing it in the daedalus repo anyway04:41
gnarfacebut yea, divert the "hype" part of the conversation to offtopic04:41
Xenguyflatpak et al. are enwindowsification of the traditional linux software systems05:27
XenguyAlso a security vector05:27
al1r4dlel flatpak05:29
rustyaxei will say flatpak is less bad than snap05:30
XenguyI meant to say 'ecosystems'05:31
XenguyPepsi vs. Coke05:31
XenguyIt's all sugar water05:31
rustyaxedog poop vs human poop on the boot. *shrug* :P05:31
XenguyThere, the gauntlet has been thrown down mightily05:31
al1r4di will use flatpak if i'm too lazy to compile it05:35
al1r4dbut yeah, flatpak is storage eater05:35
al1r4dneed more space05:36
systemdletehow close to daedalus release--Not meaning to nag.  I'm considering installs and I'm wondering if it might pay to wait a bit, if it is not too far off.  Chimaera works fine for me in the meantime.  I'd like to avoid installing chimaera and then--viola!--daedalus is released.  And I am not interested in rolling the release; I'd prefer to install fresh.08:25
rrqI'd say the current daedalus installers are ready, both installer-iso (rc8) and desktop-live (rc3); and the repo stays frozen until the release, at which point it will gain a few updates fairly immediately.09:10
rrqprobably the minimal-live (rc1) is good too, if that's your poison.09:11
rrqI expect we'll see the final practicalities and announdements done within a few days09:16
rrq(it doesn;t hinge on my spelling I hpe)09:17
onefangSo long as you are not making the "announdements".  B-)09:20
systemdleterrq: so maybe a few weeks?10:58
systemdleteWhich is fine.  I can wait.10:58
systemdleteAnd I suppose I COULD be doing some testing...10:58
brocashelmdaedalus is not giving me any trouble, and i switched to it from ceres when bookworm was frozen10:59
brocashelmit's technically stable (bookworm), but it just hasn't been officially released yet11:01
Necrodiverhey fsmithred this isnt like a help question but i was just curious: Have you ever thought of using Lilo instead of grub?13:31
rktahttps://dev1galaxy.org/viewtopic.php?id=589 How you can help Devuan - still points to freenode for #devuan-dev14:25
golinuxThanks rkta. Will take care of that if not already done.16:25
rktaYou're welcome, reporting errors it's the least I can do as a user :)16:54
ibanjaDoes anyone know how to disable C-A-BackSpace in LXDE?21:09
fsmithredibanja, I think 'dpkg-reconfigure xorg' has that setting.21:42
ibanjafsmithred: nothing happens when I use that command.21:47
brocashelmibanja: is there a file in /etc/X11/xorg.conf?21:49
ibanjano21:51
brocashelmok21:52
brocashelmtry this21:52
brocashelmsudo dpkg-reconfigure keyboard-configuration21:52
brocashelmthere will be a prompt towards the end asking if you want to terminate x with that keybind21:53
ibanjaThat did it. Thanks.21:54
fsmithredbrocashelm, thanks.21:55
fsmithredI knew it was somewhere.21:56
ibanjaI remember seeing that now that I ran it.21:56
