| FlibberTGibbet | hi. 2 questions for the price of 1 :) how stable is beowulf currently, and is there a suggested pin list for upgrading from ascii? | 12:33 |
| gnarface | check the fourms | 12:35 |
| gnarface | forums | 12:35 |
| gnarface | there might be a pin list | 12:36 |
| gnarface | stability is reportedly fine for headless stuff, for the most part | 12:36 |
| gnarface | gui stuff may still be problematic | 12:37 |
| KatolaZ | FlibberTGibbet: you don't need any pin list any more | 12:41 |
| FlibberTGibbet | thanks gnarface, KatolaZ | 12:42 |
| FlibberTGibbet | sounds like it's worth trying in a fresh VM first to check the components i'm after | 12:44 |
| KatolaZ | FlibberTGibbet: installing afresh is easier with the unstable mini.iso | 13:01 |
| KatolaZ | https://pkgmaster.devuan.org/devuan/dists/unstable/main/installer-amd64/current/images/netboot/mini.iso | 13:02 |
| KatolaZ | ^^ that's for amd64 | 13:02 |
| FlibberTGibbet | KatolaZ: thanks. committed to upgrading the current VM however fingers crossed :) | 13:02 |
| FlibberTGibbet | will give the mini.iso a try as a fresh install for comparison though | 13:03 |
| Invader_Bork | hi, is there an s6 install guide for devuan? | 16:43 |
| KatolaZ | Invader_Bork: not yet | 16:46 |
| KatolaZ | there is an s6 package in the repo | 16:46 |
| Invader_Bork | KatolaZ, do I need to run any commands after installing that package? | 16:46 |
| KatolaZ | Invader_Bork: you are on your own with that atm | 16:54 |
| KatolaZ | any indication I can give would be misleading | 16:54 |
| Invader_Bork | are there any plans for it in the future? is anyone tasked with handling s6? | 16:57 |
| KatolaZ | Invader_Bork: we are aiming at including s6/s6-rc in a future release, yes | 16:58 |
| KatolaZ | if you are willing to help, you are welcome | 16:58 |
| Invader_Bork | atm i was just hoping to wrap my head around it | 17:17 |
| Invader_Bork | i hoped that i could whip up a devuan s6 vm and start from there | 17:17 |
| Invader_Bork | there isn't a lot of information about s6 | 17:17 |
| Invader_Bork | but it seems to be pretty good | 17:17 |
| Invader_Bork | KatolaZ^ | 17:17 |
| KatolaZ | Invader_Bork: there will be an s6/s6-rc hacking session ad the Devuan conference | 17:17 |
| KatolaZ | next week | 17:18 |
| Invader_Bork | will it be live streamed or recorded? | 17:18 |
| Invader_Bork | i'm in europe but i can't make to ams | 17:19 |
| KatolaZ | the conference will be recorded and streamed | 17:19 |
| KatolaZ | but how do you stream a hacking session? :) | 17:19 |
| tuxd3v | Hello Guys, | 17:24 |
| tuxd3v | Good Afternoon | 17:24 |
| tuxd3v | all | 17:24 |
| ashleyk | did anyone notice this spam? | 17:27 |
| ashleyk | -e- [global notice] Hi folks. You may have noticed some spam in recent minutes. We're taking network-wide action to filter this; if you continue to see it, please report it to staff in private message only. You can read more about our server-side filters at <https://freenode.net/news/spamfilter>; feel free to message us if you have any questions. Thanks for using freenode, sorry for any inconvenience and have a nice day. | 17:27 |
| sleepingkirby | ashleyk: not here. | 17:29 |
| Invader_Bork | KatolaZ, do it like an old school telethon with coders in place of phone operators | 17:30 |
| Invader_Bork | lol | 17:30 |
| KatolaZ | :D | 17:30 |
| nemo | I think most channels are still muted by default due to last year's spam attacks | 17:31 |
| Invader_Bork | KatolaZ, i'd pay a dollar for that | 17:31 |
| KatolaZ | I guess most channels just went +r | 17:31 |
| nemo | on ours I require registration to talk publicly, or else your arrival from an autovoiced whitelist (which is currently only freenode's client) | 17:31 |
| KatolaZ | which rules out a lot of spam already | 17:31 |
| nemo | I figured that was less hostile | 17:31 |
| stripe | hi all installing ascii, how to kill display manager from tty so i can install the latest nvidia driver (service lightdm not recognised) cheers | 18:01 |
| ashleyk | stripe, type runlevel | 18:03 |
| ashleyk | i think its init 3 will work | 18:03 |
| KatolaZ | stripe: which display manager are you using? | 18:04 |
| stripe | its the xfce desktop from cd1 | 18:04 |
| ashleyk | hmm runlevel isnt a command apparently....but i think its init 4? init 5 = X ? | 18:04 |
| KatolaZ | as root | 18:04 |
| KatolaZ | stripe: /etc/init.d/slim stop | 18:05 |
| stripe | ah its slim, thanks guys | 18:05 |
| KatolaZ | ashleyk: what are you talking about? | 18:05 |
| KatolaZ | ashleyk: runlevel is under /sbin | 18:05 |
| ashleyk | changing runlevel from X runlevel to multi-user | 18:05 |
| KatolaZ | /sbin/runlevel | 18:05 |
| ashleyk | oh, im not root, my bad | 18:06 |
| KatolaZ | ashleyk: there is no distinction between multi-user and X in Debian | 18:06 |
| KatolaZ | and so in Devuan | 18:06 |
| KatolaZ | since I can remember :) | 18:06 |
| ashleyk | @_@ | 18:06 |
| KatolaZ | that is something used by RedHat-derived distros :) | 18:06 |
| ashleyk | oh, so its non-standard, nice! lol | 18:06 |
| ashleyk | how come it works in slackware | 18:06 |
| KatolaZ | ashleyk: there is no standard about that | 18:06 |
| KatolaZ | at all | 18:06 |
| KatolaZ | just because slackware opted for a different runlevel structure | 18:07 |
| KatolaZ | :) | 18:07 |
| ashleyk | https://www.networkworld.com/article/2693438/unix-how-to-the-linux-etc-inittab-file.html | 18:07 |
| ashleyk | # 5 - X11 | 18:07 |
| ashleyk | # 3 - Full multiuser mode | 18:07 |
| KatolaZ | ashleyk: which standard are you talking about exactly? | 18:07 |
| ashleyk | the 20 years old standard | 18:07 |
| KatolaZ | which one? | 18:08 |
| KatolaZ | can you name it, please? | 18:08 |
| ashleyk | AIX? | 18:08 |
| KatolaZ | which standard? | 18:08 |
| KatolaZ | AIX is not a standard | 18:08 |
| KatolaZ | AIX is a sysv implementation | 18:08 |
| ashleyk | ok, well, then saying normal things that usually work, dont work anymore, fine, whatever | 18:09 |
| ashleyk | who runs X anyway? lol | 18:09 |
| KatolaZ | ashleyk: you cited a standard | 18:09 |
| KatolaZ | but you can't name it :) | 18:09 |
| KatolaZ | this has never been standard | 18:10 |
| KatolaZ | the runlevel configuration has always been a choice of the implementation/distribution | 18:10 |
| ashleyk | ah, only 0, 1 and 6 were standards | 18:12 |
| KatolaZ | ashleyk: :) | 18:13 |
| gnarface | ashleyk: you can still make it do that if you want, you know. | 18:13 |
| ashleyk | i assumed they were all standard because everyone ued them | 18:13 |
| gnarface | redhat used them | 18:13 |
| gnarface | that's why everyone used them | 18:13 |
| KatolaZ | not everyone again | 18:13 |
| ashleyk | im from before redhat existed lol | 18:13 |
| KatolaZ | SuSe started using runlevel 4 for X and then switched to 5 | 18:13 |
| KatolaZ | solaris had runlevel 3 initially, then 5 | 18:14 |
| KatolaZ | other sysv implementations did different things | 18:14 |
| KatolaZ | it's basically down to the sysadmin | 18:14 |
| ashleyk | ok | 18:16 |
| gnarface | so presets is another update-rc.d feature needed | 18:16 |
