rwpWell...  That's not good. More comparison with my up to date Beowulf system: https://paste.debian.net/1176796/00:08
clortit's the crappy nvidia kernel00:09
clortand the internet has one person with that error00:11
clortmaybe it's some state's trojan causing probs00:11
gnarfacei dunno, valve's steamlink kernel throws iptables overboard too00:34
gnarfaceas does the kernel on my gp2x wiz, for whatever that's worth00:34
gnarfaceit seems like a common thing for all hardware vendors to00:35
gnarfaceto do*00:35
gnarfacei don't like it either, but it's possible you can still build and load missing stuff00:36
gnarfacetrojan or no, they clearly don't care about security at that layer00:37
gnarfaceyou might have to rebuild the whole kernel00:37
gnarfacesometimes that might require sourcing patches and firmware that don't exist or are protected under NDA00:38
gnarfacebut sometimes it's just that nobody has done the work00:38
gnarface(sometimes it's a lot of work)00:38
gnarfaceon the steam link apparently you can just kexec a whole different kernel after boot if you build it with their toolkit00:53
gnarfacenot sure if that'll work for tegra stuff or not though00:53
clortwhat the heck started mounting things under /media/$user/130r81730r5871308705:48
clortwhose idea was that05:48
clorti didn't tell the system to mount there05:49
clortwho is doing this05:49
clortthey must be punished05:49
clortsomething pulled-in udisks2 i guess05:51
comb_ridgeJust wondering how much support is out there for Devuan08:26
comb_ridgeBeen quite some time since I've used Debian - pre system d days; been using slackware and variants08:27
clortwhat are you paying08:28
comb_ridgepaying ??08:29
clortfor support08:29
clortmaybe i misunderstood you08:29
comb_ridgehaven't been - forums on slackware are good - very helpful; used Salix for some time mainly because I'm a "lazy slacker"08:30
comb_ridgeforums, general help, I'm just a general user getting things done w/O windoze08:31
clorti find most of my issues with my programs or OS are not devuan-specific or due to devuan's omission of systemd08:33
clortdevuan-specific issues are often discussed here08:33
comb_ridgeso basically most questions can be answered checking out Debian information??08:35
clortdepends on the question but most package manager type issues are addressed in debian discussions08:36
comb_ridgethanks - that helps to narrow it down.08:38
GupIs there currently some issue? Seems devuan.org and dev1galaxy.org are down?13:39
djphGup: google's shot14:05
Junicchii need to build latest version of network manager but meson throws systemd error16:07
Junicchianything you suggest?16:07
Junicchithere are lots of systemd options16:09
ShorTieis Devuan a systemd option though ??16:26
Junicchihttp://ix.io/2I2l16:50
Junicchithis is the meson build file but there is no option to disable systemd at all16:50
Junicchile developer's note16:51
Junicchi"# FIXME: do this better!!!"16:52
ShorTiedidn't you get the Devuan deb dource and look for patches maybe  ??16:57
clortgood advice by ShorTie18:09
aitor_hi18:36
fonxtadeluxehi all18:40
aitor_hi fonxtadeluxe18:41
fonxtadeluxejust a quick question, anyone ever tinkered with ati propriatery driver 13.1 for linux x86/686/586 and kernel 5.918:41
fonxtadeluxehey aitor_18:41
aitor_not me18:42
fonxtadeluxenasty driver though, old card also hd3650, 13.1 i think is the last driver supporting the card, also quickly sifted debians page about ati driver install18:43
fonxtadeluxeare those drivers really needed, i mean the ati propriatary in order for the card to get running or is x-orgs-ati driver enough for 3d acceleration18:44
fonxtadeluxeas I just would very much like a game of warsow so i will be able to see if the card actually is working18:45
fonxtadeluxeas the thing on windows xp produces terrible results, because of the cpu gets cramped at 80% on idle18:45
fonxtadeluxespectre or souch not sure, even when offline and fresh install18:45
fonxtadeluxeif anyone can point me at the right dirrection would be very much happy, thanks18:46
fonxtadeluxeoh, the driver ofcourse, does not see the linux-header although there is one18:47
fonxtadeluxeand via sh amd.... with or without force does not yield any results18:47
fonxtadeluxeamd forums?18:48
fonxtadeluxeon a sidenote, linux-gaming iso dvd which has tons of games, including warsow although v1.x something does run from a live media but produces artefacts, on windows however none of those can be seen18:49
fonxtadeluxebut i have had similar problems with other ati gpus, where linux was the choice when discovering if card is broken as windows never seem to produce on screen artefacts18:50
clortapt-cache search warsow18:50
clortnot in devuan18:50
fonxtadeluxei know, but if downloaded it runs18:50
clortglmark2 is a fair test for gpu18:51
clortnot in repo though18:51
fonxtadeluxethere is also something similar like furmark from the same coders as furmark, especially for linux18:52
fonxtadeluxebut alas X11 does not run18:52
fonxtadeluxeamd forums it is :)18:52
fonxtadeluxeoh i supposedly found out19:27
fonxtadeluxethe driver only supports X 1.12 and kernel <3.419:27
fonxtadeluxegl for me :)19:27
clortyeah that's frequent19:28
clortapi changes -> bitrot19:28
clorti squint at most people who suggest 'improvements' now19:29
clortsquint like clint19:29
fonxtadeluxei guess i will try debian 6.019:29
fonxtadeluxeif i find the cd19:29
clortnot to say there are't ay19:29
fonxtadeluxei can still upgrade via devuans repos and apt mark x1119:31
fonxtadeluxe6.0 buster does not have systemd yet or?19:31
clorti think not19:33
fonxtadeluxewill try and report, thanks for shedding some light on the subject and have a nice evenin all19:34
fonxtadeluxeo/19:34
user___Hi. How do I check what version of gvfs is on post-beowulf devuans?20:07
user___I have 1.38.1-5 on beowulf, it's the latest.20:07
user___I have android usb transfer trouble. Image mode works, normal file mode is hit and miss and has serious bugs.20:08
user___Has anyone else had trouble with phone to beowulf/other devuan connection via usb cable?20:08
fsmithredno, that works for me on an android tablet.20:09
user___all modes?20:09
fsmithredyou have gvfs-backends installed? That one is sometimes missing.20:09
fsmithredwhat do you mean "modes"?20:09
masonuser___: All modes here. Charge, storage, adb, tether.20:09
fsmithredI plug it in, two icons pop up, one says android device20:10
fsmithredah20:10
fsmithredtether worked, charge works20:10
user___there's image transfer mode which works fine and normal file mode which has trouble, sometimes works sometimes stale file lists etc20:10
fsmithredwhat's adb?20:10
masonAndroid Debugger20:10
user___the debugger20:10
fsmithrednever used it20:10
user___mason: on beowulf?20:10
masonuser___: yes20:10
fsmithredI move photos off the device ok.20:10
user___fsmithred: it's a development tool.20:10
masonfsmithred: It's a useful way to do file transfers, move things around on the phone, install things, etc.20:11
user___yeah photos mode always works fine, the storage mode has trouble20:11
fsmithred1.46.1-1 in ceres20:11
fsmithredgvfs20:11
user___I found an arch forum post where in the past similar trouble was fixed with an upgrade of gvfs20:11
fsmithredsame version is in chimaera (current testing)20:12
fsmithrednot sure what the difference is between photo and storage20:12
fsmithredI open a file manager and move files back and forth20:12
fsmithredI've also gotten bluetooth transfers to work, but that works less often than it doesn't work, and it takes a long time to figure out if it's working or not.20:13
fsmithreduser___, what gvfs packages are installed?20:14
user___I checked they are all auto installed, gvfs gvfs-common and backends20:20
user___What connects to port 5094 remote?! I seem to have some sort of problem in the phone20:20
fsmithredhart-ip20:31
fsmithredwhatever that is20:31
user___yeah it's not that. HART is an automation protocol used in factories and buildings. I don't have such.20:32
user___I'll be durned, the Swiss are spying on me...20:33
user___running nestat -tuan on non-rooted phones is super instructive sometimes. I understand the connection to nanny Vodafone. Almost. It's the bearer. But the Swiss?!20:37
rwpI am too afraid to look at what data exfiltration happens on my phone.  Therefore my policy is to not ever create any data of interest there.20:39
fsmithredstupid phone FTW20:41
ranixjust assume everything on an android or iphone is leaked20:42
fsmithredI won't even do email on the android tablet20:42
fsmithredyeah, I did it once. I could not separate my gmail accounts.20:42
user___exfiltration? It's not exfiltration. All your data is belong to them, they just show you snippets if you play nice and pay.20:42
ranixI know for a fact google passes data through 3rd party vendors just so they can claim plausible deniability when that info gets leaked to law enforcement etc.20:42
ranixthey go way out of their way to include vendors and contractors in their processes20:42
user___:)20:43
ranixeverywhere there's somewhere they want to have your data they put a temp there and blame him for the leak20:43
user___and we have bad news. using sshelper has no "spy" ip's on.21:02
user___using termux + sshd has 5 spy connections on.21:02
user___someone has trojaned termux21:02
user___it's from google play21:02
user___looking at versions and plausible explanations21:02
user___right, I am not registered so freenode does not let me talk on #termux. It is their loss.21:03
onefangI think you can get termux from F-droid, and this is off topic for a Devuan support channel.21:03
user___I'll look. Yes you are right. Sorry.21:04
user___interesting, now the monitor ip's are gone on the phone. Talking about them online helps?!21:06
user___<done with off topic>21:06
user___are there other packages besides gvfs and it's modules for android storage access?21:19
rwpI enjoyed up through Android 4 where one could mount Android storage as a USB storage device.21:31
rwpAnd then for me personally in all later Android versions I just find it too hard to exchange files.21:31
rwpI recently did this again and did so by powering off, removing the SD card, mounting the SD card, moving files, then returning and booting up.21:32
rwpFor me that is the least hassle way of moving files now.  Sigh.  It worked better before.21:32
rwpFor a while a WiFi transfer app worked acceptably well.  But yet another Android update has broken that on mine.  Doesn't work now.  Sigh.21:33
onefangI use jmtpfs for mounting my Androids.21:35
onefangecho "Make sure phone is in 'transfer files' mode"21:36
onefangjmtpfs /media/phone21:36
onefangecho "'fusermount -u /media/phone' when you are done."21:36
user___jmtpfs mounts the phone and then only lists the 2 volumes mounted on the phone (external SD and internal) and gets stuck. Lists their names not contents21:43
user___So it's a deeper lying problem.21:43
* clort whispers 'maemo-leste'21:43
user___Very long delay between commands and responses, like 30 seconds or more.21:43
user___It seems to work but very slow. Also probably hammering a log somewhere.21:45
user___Thanks for the tip onefang21:45
user___Nice it works as user, no need to use a root dir like /media/phone21:47
user___So the phone shows periodic connections to vodafone servers port 5094. No idea what it is. It is not rooted, I'll try to intercept it on the firewall on beowulf see if it's not encrypted.21:51
Copenhagen_BramIs Devuan Beowulf based on Debian 10?21:55
Copenhagen_BramOh, yes it is.21:56
masonCopenhagen_Bram: https://www.devuan.org/os/releases21:56
Copenhagen_BramBased on 10.4? What about 10.7?21:56
masonCopenhagen_Bram: Debian releases speak to what's installed baseline, not what you get once you update.21:56
Copenhagen_BramOh ok21:57
