| APic | Hi. I am trying to install Devuan on a libvirt-VM, via emulated Serial-Console instead of Graphics, so i can paste the Crypto-Passphrase instead of manually typing it. The Command „virt-install --virt-type kvm --name Brezn3 --os-variant debian10 --disk size=130 --memory 1024 --graphics none --video virtio --console pty,target.type=virtio --serial pty --extra-args 'console=ttyS0,115200n8 --- | 15:38 |
| APic | console=ttyS0,115200n8' --location https://devuan.bio.lmu.de/devuan/dists/stable/main/installer-amd64/“ works fine, but it brings me to the normal Installer, but i want the expert Installer. What additional Parameter do i need to choose the expert one? | 15:38 |
| APic | Also, i can only choose Languages C and English, but i would like German | 15:40 |
| fsmithred | APic, there's a choice in the boot menu that brings you to other boot options. That's where you will find expert install. | 15:44 |
| APic | fsmithred: Yes, but this Boot Menu is not shown when i use this Command to attach the Terminal to the Serial Console instead of using Graphics | 15:46 |
| fsmithred | add boot option Priority=low (I think) | 15:47 |
| fsmithred | give me a minute and I can check the right wording | 15:47 |
| APic | Ok, probably add this to --extra-args also? | 15:48 |
| fsmithred | I don't know that one | 15:52 |
| fsmithred | APic, it's priority=low (all lower case) | 15:57 |
| APic | Thanks | 15:58 |
| fsmithred | brb | 15:59 |
| APic | Yes, when i add „priority=low“ to --extra-args i seem to get the „Expert Install“. Thank You very much! | 16:01 |
| * APic still can choose only Languages English and C, but that is not fatal; i can install it in English and add and set the German Locale afterwards ☺ | 16:02 | |
| APic | Also looks like i do not need the console= Parameter twice separated with --- | 16:03 |
| fsmithred | I think anything after the --- gets applied to the installed system | 16:04 |
| APic | ic, thanks! | 16:04 |
| * APic very new to libvirt-Stuffs ☺ | 16:04 | |
| fsmithred | that's just the installer. Nothing to do with libvirt. (which I also don't know) | 16:05 |
| APic | oic | 16:06 |
| jason1234 | I am using lfplayer to list and view music/movies on the framebuffer. I need a xlock on fb aka fblock. Do you know a lock or screen saver on framebuffer? Is there a little code like bezier using sdl 1.2 (source: https://gitlab.com/openbsd98324/lfplayer ) | 16:33 |
| blockhead | for just blanking on the framebuffer, I do "setterm --blank=10" which sets it to blank after ten minutes. For lock, I don't know. run it in screen and then detach and log out? (and log back in and reattach later) | 17:11 |
| ham5urg | Is there a howto to edit /etc/network/interfaces to get a laptop run as a wifi-repeater? | 19:45 |
| golinux | There might be something in here https://www.devuan.org/os/documentation/install-guides/chimaera/network-configuration | 19:50 |
| ham5urg | golinux, nice site. thanks | 20:00 |
| rwp | ham5urg, What are the two devices you are repeating? WiFi to the WAN and ethernet to the LAN? Or the reverse? Or something different? | 20:11 |
| gnarface | ham5urg: there's way to do it with bare network configs and firewall rules but it might be easier to just use hostapd | 20:25 |
| gnarface | s/might be/is probably/ | 20:26 |
| rwp | My house router uses hostapd with bare configs and it works well. I have used Pi's and laptops for repeaters before. | 20:28 |
| ham5urg | Yes, I've found hostapd. Looks good. | 20:29 |
| rwp | What direction through the laptop are you trying to go? WiFi -> wired ethernet? Or something different? | 20:30 |
| * rwp must eat lunch... | 20:31 | |
| ham5urg | rwp, wifi-laptop-wifi | 20:38 |
| bb|hcb | ham5urg: do you have two wifi adapters? that setup will not work with a single one, except on selected few devices that support virtual devices on top of the same HW | 20:40 |
| bb|hcb | and then you will most probably have to share the same channel... | 20:41 |
| ham5urg | bb|hcb thanks for the info. I will check | 21:07 |
| ham5urg | Is there a way to check for virtual devices support for a wifi card? | 21:28 |
| bb|hcb | No idea, I never did that... :( | 21:30 |
| rrq | ham5urg: how about https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Software_access_point#Wireless_client_and_software_AP_with_a_single_Wi-Fi_device | 22:05 |
| gnarface | huh, i wouldn't have even considered doing it with one wifi device to be possible, and i wouldn't have thought to mention that having two was a necessity because it's such a given to me | 22:10 |
| gnarface | in fact, it still makes me a bit leery ... i'd think 2 is probably more secure | 22:11 |
| gnarface | and for what it's worth you can find really cheap usb ones these days | 22:11 |
| Vall | Looks like Devuan got ranked (again and by another source) among the top 10 Debian-derived distros: https://www.makeuseof.com/best-debian-based-linux-distros/ | 22:32 |
| Vall | #6 in 10, which all of us here know is BS -- Devuan is #1 easily ;-) | 22:33 |
| Vall | Seriously, congrats to the team | 22:33 |
| golinux | Vall: This is the best ranking . . . We're #2 https://distrowatch.com/dwres.php?resource=ranking | 22:42 |
| golinux | afk again | 22:42 |
| Vall | golinux: agreed re: distrowatch | 22:54 |
