I_am_nobody777Hi fsmithred ,18:35
I_am_nobody777Downloaded the iso , the installation went well .18:35
I_am_nobody777They should mark it as bios only atleast.18:35
alvand sorry fsmithred but where is the link for the meeting ?18:35
golinuxHi alv!  vdc.dyne.org/devuan18:36

golinuxWill be great to see you!18:38
alvto me too to see you all !!!18:38
alv:D18:38
fsmithredI_am_nobody777, I need to decide what to do with that. Better to have two separate isos or do like the desktop-live that has grub-efi installed but also has grub-pc in the iso - the instlaler will find it if needed.18:38
masonI_am_nobody777: Hey, I was going to reply about ZFS on root the other day, but I missed you. Did you get all the information you needed?18:39
I_am_nobody777fsmithred , The latter is better . A single iso for both bios and uefi .18:41
fsmithredthat's what I would prefer18:42
I_am_nobody777mason , I am currently gathering info . Just installed devuan ( getting the hang of it ) . I will try out zfs and zfs dkms and familarize myself with zfs by testing on a pendrive . I plan to have a encrypted zpool for multibooting devuan and void .18:45
I_am_nobody777my bad , dual booting*18:46
masonI_am_nobody777: kk - ping me if any questions arise18:46
I_am_nobody777mason , sure thing . I am still figuring out irc , will ping you once I know how to ;) . Thanks.18:48
fsmithredjust say his name18:48
fsmithredmost irc clients will alert you when someone says your name18:49
I_am_nobody777ok , thanks fsmithred . I got it .18:50
I_am_nobody777fsmithred: A little suggestion , insted of autologging into "devuan" user , "root" is preferrable . I literally wasted 10 minutes or something figuring why there is no dhcpd or dhclient or wpa_supplicant . After escalating myself (wih sudo su ) , they were avialable .18:58
fsmithredI_am_nobody777, boot the second item in the boot menu - (access) and you will be logged in as root.19:03
fsmithrednot finding commands is a wonderful new feature from debian. They moved su from the shadow package to util-linux, and someone decided to change it.19:04
fsmithreduse 'su -' to get root's real path.19:04
fsmithredor use full path to the command.19:04
bruHey everyone, I was trying to use my old monitor which does not have a HDMI port, so I bought a HDMI to DVI adapter and connected it from my GPU's (RX 550) HDMI port19:07
bruIt worked just fine with the BIOS menu and GRUB and just before it loads the video module (I don't know what it's called, just before it gets full screen resolution)19:08
bruAs I just said before, it works without loading certain software, so I think this might be fixable, right?19:08
eadybru: My first guess would be that the HDMI port is trying to send output at a resolution/refresh-rate combination that the DVI end can't handle.  The fix is probably just to configure it to use settings that work.19:10
eadyWhich _used_ to be a normal thing to do, because we used to hand-edit a config file for XFree86 and _tell_ it what resolutions to use.19:11
eadyThese days we don't normally do that; but I think it's still possible.19:11
eady(It'd be X.org instead of XFree86 now, but.)19:12
eadyFiguring out the highest resolution the DVI end can support, is left as an exercise.19:13
eadyFor just testing to see if this is indeed the issue and getting it to work, start by just telling it to use an extremely common resolution, like 1024x768.19:14
bruSo a possible fix is messing with the Xorg.conf according to the DVI input from my monitor?19:14
eadyOnce you know how to do that, and verify that it works, you can worry about figuring out what higher res you can use.19:14
eadybru: I am guessing, but yes, probably.19:15
eadyLike I said, for your first test, try something like 1024x768 at 60 Hz.19:15
eadyAnd if that _works_, then you can worry about finding better settings.19:15
bruSure, I will. Maybe I can log in from ssh and do things like Xorg --default, so I can see what the server detects. Thank you very much!19:16
eadyYeah, going in by ssh will make editing the conf file easier as well.19:17
fsmithredbru, you might need firmware-amd-graphics. Some sets won't give you a desktop without it.19:27
XenguyI need to install VSCode for a course, and there is a DEB for Debian.  Just wondering if anyone has successfully installed it on Devuan, or not?23:00
