tuxd3vgnarface: you right, I am fighting to install nvidia driver with 4.9 kernel and it goes to legacy 390XX driver and not to 4xx series :(01:35
tuxd3vI was trying the 418xx..01:37
tuxd3vfollowing debian documentation..01:37
tuxd3vhttps://wiki.debian.org/NvidiaGraphicsDrivers#buster-41801:37
tuxd3vbut it doesn't bring me 418 with my kernel on 4.9..01:37
tuxd3vprobably I will need to upgrade to a 4.19 or 5.4..01:37
tuxd3vbeowulf is counterpart to what debian version?01:39
tuxd3vbuster?01:39
ukine1correct. https://devuan.org/os/releases01:42
ukine1i'm currently trying to install the nvidia 390 driver for the quadro nvs 4200m on my t520 :]01:42
ukine1i'm assuming linux headers is what the nvidia provided .run package is yelling at me about; i.e. the kernel source is not on my machine...01:45
ukine1could use a mr. meeseeks for support right about now XD01:45
tuxd3v390XX is the legacy driver, I have a gtx1060 wich only is well supported in 4xx series, so Maybe I need a kernel update or else..01:48
tuxd3vukine1: yeah, thanks, you definitly need the linux-headers for your kernel and also kbuild for dkms :)01:49
tuxd3vwhe you do this:01:50
fsmithredping tuxd3v01:50
tuxd3vwhat apears to you?01:50
tuxd3vapt install linux-headers-$(uname -r|sed 's/[^-]*-[^-]*-//') nvidia-driver01:50
fsmithredoh01:50
fsmithredhi01:50
tuxd3vhi fsmithred :)01:51
fsmithredI was scrolled up and didn't realize you were here01:51
fsmithredpm coming01:51
tuxd3vhhe no problem :)01:51
ukine1tuxd3v:  i did that command, except without nvidia-driver as i got a driver package executable directly from nvidia's site01:52
ukine1it d/led a bunch of linux to my hdd i know that, not much else…01:52
ukine1this is for my laptop which will see source games so i'm not doing anything too dangerous :]01:52
ukine1ok i've stopped my xdm (default, slim), and have the headers and kbuild02:13
ukine1where is the kernel source tree located in the fs?02:13
ukine1nvidia driver cursesish installer needs to locate it…02:13
ukine1fsmithred , tuxd3v ?02:14
fsmithredbeen too long since I've done that02:14
ukine1dang02:14
fsmithredmaybe /usr/lib or /lib/modules?02:14
ukine1ty checking..02:15
fsmithredsource tree?02:15
fsmithredyou need that to compile nvidia?02:15
ukine1for the kernel02:15
ukine1no it's a .run +x execable file directly from nvidia's site for 390 compatible gpu's (a mobile in this case, quadro nvs 4200m)02:16
ukine1i guess it needs to compile actually yes02:16
ukine1it required gcc and make to be installed02:16
ukine1i've just been working through the errors that app throws02:16
ukine1i think this will be the last one02:17
fsmithredthe only issue I ever had was that you have to tell it to use a different version of gcc to match the one used to build the kernel02:17
fsmithredfor some reason, the debian kernel always seems to be compiled with an older version of gcc than the one that is the default for the system02:17
fsmithredenv CC=/usr/bin/gcc-some-old-version sh ./nvidia-whatever.run02:23
fsmithredsomething like that02:23
andrazhi07:40
andraz↘️😉️07:41
meep_____fsmithred: that shouldn't be the case if the abi version is compatible08:07
meep_____Recently GCC did a major abi change08:07
meep_____I upgraded my gentoo systems through it08:07
meep_____Only time i had to recompile everything08:07
meep_____Although08:07
meep_____Libboost and things that rely on libboost are notoriously pains in the ass when it compiles to compiler08:07

gnarfaceso has anyone seen problems with screen corruptions when waking up from sleep on ascii with nvidia?15:54
gnarfacemaybe particular to kde, not sure...15:54
gnarfacegoogle searches turned up an issue from 2015 that suggested it could somehow have something to do with the hdmi audio device??? was supposed to be fixed though...15:55
gnarfaceit also might have something to do with qemu15:55
gnarfaceboth times this happened, qemu (with kvm) was in use before hand... only two data points though15:56
masongnarface: nvidia proprietary or Nouveau?16:22
masongnarface: Nouveau has failed in every environment and situation where I've tried it, personally.16:23
gnarfacein this case it's proprietary16:23
gnarfacethe ascii-backports drivers, specifically16:24
gnarface(the regular ones didn't even load)16:24
gnarfacebut they have successfully resumed from suspend dozens of times too16:25
gnarfaceso now i'm wondering if it's possible that qemu or kvm could be causing it16:26
cushyes it might have been good to mention that you were in a vm16:45
gnarfacecush: no, it's not *in* a vm.  the vm wasn't even running either time.16:48
cushah16:48
gnarfacethe problem is on the host system, but the only times it has happened coincided with a vm being recently in use16:48
gnarfacewhich seemed noteworthy, but may have really just been coincidence.16:49
TenkawaI've been having much better luck with nouveau lately than the proprietary kernel driver for the more recent kernels17:14
premobosshello19:32
cushdhu19:35
premobossi am a freecad user since years. now i need to animate some objects in my draws: i already did in past using python on freecad, but it is a real stick in the ass. i llok around and someone said me solodworks is "THE" cad i need. unfortunately it is closed sourced, windows only and overall, expencive like hell. i need just sole simple animation (i.e. rotation along one axe) not more. so,  llok around for alternative but apparently19:35
premobossthere are not for linux. so i landed here: maybe someone of you has some info i did not found around.19:35
Atari-Froschblender?19:37
gnarfaceblender19:38
Atari-Froschpremoboss: blender might be of help.19:39
Atari-FroschIt's in the repos.19:39
premobossAtari-Frosch, someone suggest me to do object in freecad, export to stl, inporting in blender and tem move them there. but is so long process. openscand is not the right one... i am stucked.19:39
Atari-Froschpremoboss: I'm not really into that kind of software, just know about some of these programs, but don't use them.19:40
premobossAtari-Frosch, thank the same for yourt reply, it means you read and try to help. just this is good .-)19:42
Atari-Frosch:-)19:43

cushthink i'll be able to build pale moon for armhf witn 1GB RAM?19:45
cushwe shall find out :)19:45
ChimpZdo you ppl know a good guide to upgrade from ascii to beowulf?20:15
* cush stares at feet20:16
cushi don't even know how i did it20:16
cushmake a backup, change sources list.  update and upgrade, i think20:17
golinuxChimpZ: https://beta.devuan.org/os/install20:18
debdogthere is the semi-official one https://beta.devuan.org/os/documentation/dev1fanboy/en/upgrade-to-beowulf decide for yourself whether it's good or not ;)20:18
golinuxThat is not "semi-official".20:19
golinuxAll installation options are available at the link I posted.20:20
ChimpZgolinux: thanks! <323:11
