| sabas3dgh | hello and good day! | 06:05 |
| sabas3dgh | I messed up devuan last night and reinstalled it this morning, | 06:05 |
| sabas3dgh | a question. is there a command to take all the installed packages list out and then give it as a file to apt-get to install it on new server. | 06:06 |
| sabas3dgh | it would help a lot | 06:06 |
| sabas3dgh | brb | 06:17 |
| sabas3dgh | Hello again | 06:20 |
| sabas3dgh | I am back | 06:20 |
| sabas3dgh | any idea about my question? ^^ | 06:20 |
| rrq | how about: apt-mark showmanual | 06:23 |
| rrq | .. shows all that installed but not if pulled in by dependencies only | 06:24 |
| rrq | or: apt-mark showinstall | 06:24 |
| rrq | .. shows all installed (manually and automatic) | 06:25 |
| sabas3dgh | rrq: Nice; Thanks | 06:48 |
| sabas3dgh | hello devuan users :) | 19:06 |
| sabas3dgh | thanks for all your help | 19:06 |
| sabas3dgh | I set up my desktop | 19:07 |
| sabas3dgh | I did install compiz as compositor with mate (mate tweak) and it is very acceptable. | 19:07 |
| sabas3dgh | my only issue is windows buttons (close minimize maximize) they don't work | 19:08 |
| sabas3dgh | Please hit me with any solution if you know how | 19:08 |
| sabas3dgh | I use pidgin as IRC client (which is very nice), firefox as web browser, Mate terminal is nice, file manager is ok, | 19:10 |
| sabas3dgh | do you suggest installing compton instead. if yes please give me some good config for compton | 19:10 |
| sabas3dgh | thanks | 19:10 |
| fsmithred | sabas3dgh, if the window buttons problem is related to client-side decorations, you could install gtk3-nocsd | 19:16 |
| sabas3dgh | fsmithred: what is that? I clcik on the buttons but nothing happens. I though it is because compiz is running the show there. | 19:18 |
| fsmithred | maybe | 19:18 |
| fsmithred | client-side decorations are window controls that are part of the application instead of part of the window manager. | 19:18 |
| fsmithred | if you have normal title bars with normal looking window buttons, that is not csd. | 19:19 |
| sabas3dgh | fsmithred: https://github.com/PCMan/gtk3-nocsd | 19:19 |
| fsmithred | I would install it from the devuan repo. | 19:20 |
| fsmithred | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Client-side_decoration See the example | 19:21 |
| sabas3dgh | fsmithred: I need this to be set at system start (and system wide) what is you suggestion. export LIBVA_DRIVER_NAME=i915 | 19:22 |
| sabas3dgh | fsmithred: reading the wiki page ... | 19:22 |
| fsmithred | what I suggest is that you look at the example and look at your monitor and decide if that is the problem | 19:22 |
| fsmithred | if it is, then I suggest running 'apt install gtk3-nocsd' and then logging out and in. | 19:23 |
| fsmithred | if it isn't, then you would need to do something else that I don't know. | 19:23 |
| fsmithred | I don't know anything about exporting libva driver | 19:24 |
| sabas3dgh | where does lightdm read at session start up? ~/.profile /etc/environment .... where? | 19:25 |
| fsmithred | I don't know. I can never keep that stuff straight. | 19:26 |
| fsmithred | elogind is involved in that | 19:26 |
| fsmithred | what are you trying to do? | 19:26 |
| sabas3dgh | fsmithred: exporting system variable | 19:28 |
| sabas3dgh | /etc/profile.d/ may be? | 19:28 |
| fsmithred | for gtk3-nocsd? | 19:29 |
| sabas3dgh | no for firefox and play online video (hardware acceleration). | 19:30 |
| sabas3dgh | nocsd doesn't need that. does it? | 19:30 |
| fsmithred | nope | 19:30 |
| sabas3dgh | fsmithred: If yo don't mind me asking... | 19:30 |
| sabas3dgh | what desktop are you running? | 19:30 |
| fsmithred | xfce | 19:30 |
| sabas3dgh | Yay. | 19:31 |
| fsmithred | occasionally openbox with lxpanel | 19:31 |
| sabas3dgh | stable and highly configurable | 19:31 |
| fsmithred | I have compositing enabled in the xfce settings | 19:32 |
| fsmithred | I think it's just whatever the defaults are | 19:32 |
| fsmithred | I put custom stuff (exports) in ~/.bashrc | 19:34 |
| fsmithred | e.g. stuff for signing packages | 19:34 |
| fsmithred | yes, you can put things in /etc/profile.d/ for system-wide settings. | 19:36 |
| fsmithred | I've used that for desktop autologin without a display manager and I think for language settings. | 19:36 |
| sabas3dgh | fsmithred: yes. You confirmed it. | 19:37 |
| fsmithred | which? | 19:37 |
| fsmithred | my approach is usually to try something to see if it works | 19:37 |
| fsmithred | kick it around until it obeys | 19:38 |
| sabas3dgh | /etc/profile.d ! | 19:38 |
| fsmithred | ah, ok. | 19:38 |
| sabas3dgh | fsmithred: I have an issue. What is the official way of changing defaults for multiple version of some program (i.e java perl ...) | 19:38 |
| fsmithred | the proof is in the pudding | 19:38 |
| sabas3dgh | :D | 19:38 |
| fsmithred | update-alternatives | 19:39 |
| sabas3dgh | I see we have update alternatives | 19:39 |
| fsmithred | have fun with that man page | 19:39 |
| sabas3dgh | that bad? | 19:39 |
| fsmithred | lol | 19:39 |
| fsmithred | want to become a package mainainer? I have one for you. | 19:39 |
| fsmithred | desktop-base | 19:39 |
| fsmithred | if there are already existing alternatives to choose from, it's pretty easy | 19:40 |
| fsmithred | update-alternatives --config <name> | 19:41 |
| fsmithred | and I usually figure out the name by looking at what's in /etc/alternatives | 19:41 |
| fsmithred | update-alternatives --config x-window-manager | 19:42 |
| fsmithred | if the link group doesn't exist, it gets a lot more interesting. | 19:44 |
| fsmithred | brb | 19:45 |
| gnarface | sabas3dgh: i actually had problems figuring out how to get lightdm to run the bash login scripts right. it's doing something misbeahved, i forget exactly what. (not using it myself, but was helping someone else with it at some point) | 23:15 |
| gnarface | sabas3dgh: luckily that variable is probably just fine as a system-wide one | 23:15 |
| gnarface | i forget what i had changed now to get it working on that one though, but it was beowulf | 23:16 |
