ylhello01:15
ylis there a rolling version of devuan?01:16
djphno01:16
ylthanks01:16
golinuxI suppose you could consider ceres (sid) a rolling version.  LOL!01:35
djphhm... fair point01:41
fsmithredwe hope people running ceres will offer support, not ask for it01:43
critrthat might be an interesting project01:48
VanfanelHello02:29
adhochi Vanfanel02:29
VanfanelDo you guys know how can I tell the "fetch" script to update to 5.15 kernel on the Raspberry Pi?02:29
adhocwhic version of devuan are you running ?02:30
VanfanelLatest one on ARM6402:30
adhocchinaera ?02:30
VanfanelYep02:30
adhocdo you have the backports repository in your /etc/apt/sources.list ?02:31
Vanfaneladhoc: yes02:31
Vanfaneldoing "fetch -1" installs kernel 5.10.x02:32
VanfanelHow should I tell "fetch" to install 5.15.x?02:32
adhocif you run the following, which series kernel do you have installed?02:37
adhoc dpkg --get-selections  | grep linux-image02:37
fsmithred5.14 is in backports.02:37
VanfanelSorry, I know you guys are doing the best to help me, but all this is simply a problem with the "fetch" command.02:37
adhocis that part of the arm64 release?02:38
fsmithredI know nothing about fetch02:38
adhoci don't know it either02:38
Vanfaneladhoc: yes, that's arm specific02:38
fsmithredthere's 5.15 in ceres, but it might not work well with chimaera02:38
adhocVanfanel: is there a specific reason you need 5.15 ?02:40
Vanfaneladhoc: yes, I can't report a graphics roblem without updating to the latest kernel02:41
golinux#devuan-arm channel maybe?02:41
Vanfanelgolinux: it seems #arm-img-builder is the right one, or so the "fetch" command says02:43
golinuxSorry . . . I know nothing about arm02:44
Vanfanelgolinux: don't worry, and thanks for trying to help me :)02:44
VanfanelAh, it's "fetch -2". Thanks guys for trying to help!02:47
golinuxThe guys on the arm channel do02:47
pingpongballhey guys is it ok to install intel-microcode in devuan?11:55
djphyes11:55
pingpongball:)  thank you i'm installing it11:55
djphit's patches for the CPU microcode11:55
pingpongballdone11:55
pingpongballGuys when i boot12:01
pingpongballalthough it is booting perfectly12:02
pingpongballbut when booting in that commands12:02
pingpongballIs shows error like12:02
pingpongballcannot install modeprobe -l nvidia-cur"12:02
pingpongball....12:02
pingpongballalthough it boots fine, but what is that error means?12:02
pingpongballis it error for something big for future, or is it fine?12:02
used____modeprobe is a misspelling. modprobe is more likely. It means it won't install Nvidia drivers properly. Do your graphics look good?12:04
pingpongballyes it looks good12:05
pingpongballbut12:05
pingpongballi dont see nvidia on settings12:05
pingpongballonly this   Mesa Intel® Iris(R) Plus Graphics (ICL GT2)12:05
pingpongballwhile i was debian, it used to be nouveau/mesa....   or nvidia/mesa...12:06
used____Yes that means you do not have a Nvidia card... ?12:06
debdogthe only files I could find with "nvidia-cur" in their names are just PNGs. like /usr/share/icons/ukui/16x16/apps/nvidia-current-settings.png12:06
used____nouveau is "open source" nvidia. If it works, leave it alone. Ignore the "error".12:07
pingpongballno i've nvidia card12:07
pingpongballi used to install by "sudo apt install nvidia-driver"12:07
used____Is this a laptiop?12:07
pingpongballyes i'm in laptop12:07
used____Right, so you're using the chipset default video driver, which is Intel, Nvidia is not used.12:08
pingpongballi want to use both12:08
used____This is a hairy-er problem to fix, maybe others will help. Make the rest of the system work.12:08
used____You can't use "both" on a laptop, you use them one by one, one or the other.12:09
pingpongballdoes it affect , i mean12:10
pingpongballif i install like cuda , does nvidia would work properly12:10
pingpongballlike for tensorflow12:10
pingpongballand things12:10
used____I don't know, but I think when using cuda, the Nvidia driver does not also output to video out.12:11
pingpongballgod this didnt happened in debian12:11
used____Right, wait for others to chip in, laptops are more complex to set up for video.12:12
used____Also, duckduck a bit. Here is what I found: https://gist.github.com/Kreyren/cccf642ce672fd8f127ed128cf27749b12:12
pingpongballok12:13
pingpongballi've already install nvidia-driver12:13
pingpongballI can see it have also installed a nvidia-settings12:13
pingpongballnvidia-xserver-settings12:13
pingpongballDo you guys "debian and devuan" , In real life as friends / do you fight each other or have some sort  of unbalanced friendship  ?12:36
UsLwat12:39
pingpongball:)  just saying12:39
UsLI didn't even understand what you tried to ask12:40
UsLseems like offtopic anyway12:40
pingpongballsorry , i was just asking off topic,12:41
pingpongballi've problem and i'm hree12:41
pingpongballcannot install modeprobe -l nvidia-cur"12:41
pingpongballwhen i boot it tells me this error12:41
pingpongballbut although it boots perfect12:41
pingpongballalso in my settings graphics, only intel graphics shows up and not any of nvidia12:42
pingpongballalthough i've installed nvidia-driver12:42
pingpongballi'm waiting for devuan developer for help me solve the issue12:43
UsLwell, I agree with used___. It can be flunky mixing intel and nvidia systems.12:47
pingpongballi used to run before in debian, it shows in graphics12:50
pingpongballbut not in devuan12:50
UsLdevuan uses 99% of all that debian does. You sure you have all fields in sources enabled and can install the latest (debian) nvidia drivers?12:54
UsLtry a restart and log all problems. Check dmesg. Search online for the exact error messages,12:56
pingpongballUsl that 99% , snapcraft was not included and is banned, i was suprised and depressed by hearing this.12:57
UsLmaybe devuan isn't the distro fit for your needs. Banned packages are depending on systemd to function.12:59
pingpongballno no i dont want systemd13:03
used____You've been pushing the same points here for a few days now, pingpongball. Make your mind up. You can't come here to "push the envelope", trying to implement things which are written up as not working on devuan for good reasons. Choose what you need and we'll help you with it. Choose something which does not work, and we can't/won't.13:13
pingpongballsorry, but problem was that nvidia showing problem13:14
used____Did you follow the nvidia link I gave you above?13:14
pingpongballi've already told https://forum.snapcraft.io/t/snapcraft-support-for-other-init-systems-sysvinit-runit-openrc/27818   :)13:14
used____https://gist.github.com/Kreyren/cccf642ce672fd8f127ed128cf27749b this, again13:14
pingpongballI've already installed nvidia-driver13:15
pingpongballit tells13:15
pingpongballOUTDATED: The pinning no longer works.13:15
brocashelmwhy do you want snaps in devuan?13:16
pingpongball-_-  like if i want to install rust programming , with rustup ,13:17
pingpongballalso that robo3t, although i've found appimage of its alternative i'm using it13:17
pingpongballalthough i dont wanted , never would download proprietary software13:18
brocashelmso, it's not good enough to install rust packages from apt?13:20
brocashelmi don't see what the issue is here13:20
brocashelmas used____ said, you have to decide for yourself what you want to do with devuan and accept both pros and cons13:21
pingpongballI accept cons13:24
pingpongball:)13:24
pingpongballHail devuan13:24
pingpongball=*13:24
used____Sigh.13:25
pingpongballwhat is apt pinning guys?14:45
pingpongballsomebody recommend to install rust latest , rustup ,14:46
pingpongballusing  /etc/apt/preferences.d and add an unstable source14:46
pingpongballhttps://gist.github.com/Diablo-D3/55537540242ad3d6852deeb55163129d14:46
pingpongballi had never heard apt pinning14:46
furrymcgeesee man apt_preferences14:48
pingpongballyes i'm in14:48
pingpongballhttps://wiki.debian.org/AptConfiguration14:48
furrymcgeehttps://manpages.debian.org/bullseye/apt/apt_preferences.5.en.html14:48
pingpongballlike that rust-all package is only available in sid, i could use backports14:49
furrymcgeeI dont know if rust is ready for debian stable14:50
pingpongballno it is not ready for stable , rustc are availalbe14:50
furrymcgeeI think backports are only for stable14:52
brocashelmhttps://www.devuan.org/os/packages15:03
brocashelmso, yes, backports is only for stable15:04
brocashelmrust-all is available for testing (same version as unstable: 1.56)15:05
brocashelmimo, you might benefit more from using unstable if you frequently need newer packages15:06
brocashelmbut it's still risky if you don't know what you're doing15:06
brocashelmi've used ceres (devuan unstable) for almost two years and have only had minor issues (if any) during an upgrade. it's advisable to install apt-listchanges and apt-listbugs if you go this route, just to be safe15:07
Centurion_DanJjp137: I'm not overly concerned about the service, just control over what servers it uses.19:18
Jjp137er...did you address the wrong person?19:19
Centurion_DanJjp137: I'm not concerned about using DNS over HTTPS but concerned about what servers are used by default.  In my view that is the key issue that isn't yet being addressed.  He who controls the servers used by default will control what domains can be seen.19:26
Jjp137oh I forgot about that conversation19:27
