systemdlete???03:30
systemdleteNote that the repo has changed.  I was previously using a local repo, but changed it to bareos's official repos.  I did all of this to get more up-to-date versions of bareos.03:32
systemdletedevuan/debian has a rather old version (16) whereas the newest version was just released before the new year (21)03:32
fsmithreddebian/devuan has the old version of everything. It's a feature.03:40
systemdleteah, ok.  thanks.  :)03:43
systemdletebut seriously...  !!!03:44
systemdletewelcome back fsmithred.  missed you buddy03:44
systemdletehappy new year03:44
fsmithredthanks. Happy new year.03:44
systemdleteany ideas on the update/upgrade?03:44
systemdleteI have never understood debian's packaging system thoroughly enough to figure these things out03:45
fsmithredwhat upgrade?03:45
systemdletedid you see the link?03:45
fsmithredno03:45
systemdletehere it is again:  http://paste.debian.net/1226230/03:46
critrsystemdlete, do you add the backports repo to your sources.list?03:47
fsmithredthat's weird03:47
systemdletecritr:  Are the new bareos packages in backports?  When I've checked in the past, they were not there.03:47
fsmithredtry aptitude. It may give you some options03:48
systemdlete(fsmithred:  I'm using the web chat, so maybe some of my posts are not making it?)03:48
systemdletekeep in mind, bareos 21 was just released about 2 weeks ago, that's all.03:49
fsmithreddid they backport it for buster?03:50
systemdleteyes, they absolutely did.  And for the previous version also03:50
systemdletebut that's as far back as they went.03:50
systemdleteI think there are some library deps involved...03:50
systemdleteI dont see a way to unhold these packages (that's the problem, btw)03:54
systemdleteI forgot I put hold on them03:54
systemdleteIn the package menu, there is a Hold option but no unHold option...03:54
fsmithredpackage menu? what's that?03:55
systemdletein aptitude03:55
fsmithredaptitude -s full-upgrade03:55
systemdletethat only confused me, actually.  I decided to remove 3 packages then I will install them again03:58
systemdletenow real problems...03:59
systemdleteto install the new version, it requires newer dependencies like libgcc-s1 >= 3.0, but is not installable03:59
systemdleteegads04:00
systemdletealso readline804:00
fsmithreddoesn't sound like it was backported to buster04:00
systemdletenow, on chimaera, that's all fine.  But on beowulf, not so04:00
systemdlete# cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/bareos.list04:01
systemdletedeb https://download.bareos.org/bareos/release/21/Debian_11 /04:01
systemdleteor should that be 10?04:01
systemdleteoooh04:01
fsmithred10, 11 and 12 all start with B04:02
systemdleteduh04:02
systemdleteheheheh04:02
systemdletethat is DEFINITELY adding to the confusion04:02
fsmithredBu Bu Bo04:02
systemdletehoney bububo04:02
systemdleteok, switching it to 10 and updating/upgrading worked.04:03
systemdleteanyway, thanks to all who tried to help this careless user04:03
systemdletedevuan's naming is much easier to remember04:17
sabas3dghfsmithred, hello there. what's up.08:17
sabas3dghsabas3dgh, where are list of alternatives are located. you say before they are in */usr*08:20
sabas3dghI can't find them08:21
gnarfacesabas3dgh: they're in /etc/alternatives/08:24
gnarfacesabas3dgh: check the man page for update-alternatives though08:24
sabas3dghgnarface, oh; hello there; how are you.08:25
sabas3dghgnarface, the question is how to manually add an alternative to a list of existing ones?08:26
gnarfacesabas3dgh: it's based on the package header "Provides:"08:27
gnarfacesabas3dgh: i don't know if there's a way to add one directly other than editing its package header08:28
gnarfacethe man page would mention it most likely if so08:28
sabas3dghgnarface, So what about that there is not a package at all.. just a directory.08:30
sabas3dghI am looking at man page let you know then!08:30
gnarfaceif it's just a directory i'd suggest you put it in a package08:31
gnarfaceyou don't really mean it's literally just a directory right?  you mean it's a directory with stuff in it, i assume...08:31
gnarfacethis stuff is all based on package headers.  you need a package to fulfill the basic premise.08:32
gnarfacehowever, alternatives are in the end, just a way to automate updating symlinks from them to binaries in /usr/bin, usually08:33
gnarfaceand you can certainly update those symlinks manually08:33
gnarfaceif you're only doing this to override the current default of a list of alternatives, you don't really need the list, right?08:34
gnarfacekinda makes a mess but those are your two choices08:34
gnarfacethe symlinks are what is in /etc/alternatives/08:35
sabas3dghhi back08:42
sabas3dghdo anyone know how could I enable that squeaky line as wrong worrd spell in softwares like hexchat?08:43
gnarfacesome gtk thing.  it's not on by default for you?08:47
gnarfacemaybe you have to install the spellcheck dictionary08:47
gnarfaceoh, maybe it's libgspel08:55
gnarfacelibgspell*08:55
sabas3dghupdate-alternatives --install /usr/bin/javap javap /home/admins/Applications/graalvm-ce-java11-21.3.0/bin/javap 309:13
sabas3dghrestrting hexchat09:14
sabas3dghno luck gnarface09:17

DashiePieneed some help15:27
DashiePiemy system clock needs a new ntp source or it'll continue to run faster than what it should15:28
DashiePiehttps://files.catbox.moe/46zzvd.png16:06
DashiePiehelp with this error, please?16:06
djphthat almost reads like a systemd error ...16:10
Tenkawatake a read here: https://forum.artixlinux.org/index.php/topic,465.0.html16:13
Tenkawaseems similar to what they encountered16:13
Tenkawanot really "easily fixable" since it expects systemd components16:14
Tenkawaunless you rebuild it yourself16:14
DashiePieno idea why it spontaneously stopped working16:20
DashiePieseems like a real problem for no particular reason at all16:20
Tenkawaany errors in /var/log?16:20
DashiePiewhere am I looking?16:28
Tenkawajust through the various logs for the time period and if you see "error/warning" messages ..  . those messages would potentially indicate something is not either working intermittently and just needs a reboot perhaps too16:31
DashiePieyeah, I totally know what to look for /s16:32
DashiePieI don't know16:40
DashiePieI don't think there was anything related to the service that controls time and date16:41
Tenkawathats not relevant.. you are "telling" it to use one that is with that message… "GDBus.Error:orq.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown:The16:50
Tenkawaname or.freedesktop.timedate1" is a time called by dbus-systemd16:50
Tenkawahttps://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man5/org.freedesktop.timedate1.5.html16:50
Tenkawathats what that error refers back to16:50
Tenkawabut since devuan doesn't use systemd....16:51
Tenkawathat's not correct behaviour16:52
DashiePieI did absolutely nothing, this behavior started SUDDENLY16:52
Tenkawaso have you updated/upgraded your system recently?16:52
DashiePieno, I really should16:52
DashiePiebut I need to edit it so that Chimaera is the default, I'm still in-between16:52
DashiePieI'm seriously not sure why it just STOPPED working altogether, though16:53
Tenkawanot sure.16:53
DashiePieit's all so tiresome16:54
DashiePie>no ping reply for 415 seconds16:54
DashiePiewonder if that's the snow, or my fucked up system16:54
Tenkawaheh I'm looking out at a bunch of snow too16:55
Tenkawamelting fast here though16:55
Tenkawawe missed the worst by about 40m/64km16:56
DashiePieis there any way to manually set time with ntp or what?17:09
DashiePiewhat sources it uses?17:09
DashiePiecan I at least get a .source file or something to correct this?17:09
DashiePieI just want any way to keep it from running too fast17:10
DashiePiebecause youtube videos and wine and everything plays 1.10x faster17:10
djphwhat?17:16
djphsystem time has no bearing whatsoever on games or youtube...17:17
DashiePiethen something's really wrong, because it's all playing faster17:17
DashiePieI didn't touch anything17:17
djphwell, the hwclock still doesn't have any bearing on any of that.17:20
djphhwclock (and NTP) just keep track of, well, "time".  your hwclock running fast has as much bearing on other stuff happening as your wall-clock running fast does to your local news broadcast.17:23
djph(iow, not a single thing)17:23
DashiePiethe only thing I can find is about the cmos battery, which apparently can make your computer run faster if it's dying17:25
DashiePiegreat17:25
DashiePiethe 16th is when I get my new parts, so I don't even feel the need17:25
DashiePieI'm done with this shit17:25
fsmithredwhat would happen if you had a power supply that expected 50Hz but you ran it on 60Hz?18:23
fsmithredwould everything run 20% faster?18:23
debdogthat _really_ depends on the PS.18:32
debdogwith a transformer one which outputs DC you're prolly fine18:32
debdogwith a SMPS it depends on its tolerance (is the proper english word?)18:34
debdogmoving to OT....18:35
debdogthe system clock runs even if the 'puter is not pluggen in. meaning: it's powered by the BIOS battery and thus is independend of the power grid's freq and power supply18:50
debdogwell, at least usually™19:01
Akulidoes anyone know how to install llvmpipe? i'd like to do some software rendering on a laptop where the gpu driver dpesm21:57
Akuli...doesn't support opengl 3.x (pressed enter accidentally)21:57
Akulii found a ppa, but it's for ubuntu, and i also tried compiling it myself but i get errors and figured maybe i shouldn't go down that route21:58
Akulinevermind, it turns out to be already working :D all it took was "MESA_LOADER_DRIVER_OVERRIDE=llvmpipe ./program"22:08
raindodgerDoes anyone know if runit provides a command that functions similarly to sysvinit's --status-all command?23:20
raindodgerI'm looking for a way to list all of the services that could be running and how to know which actually are currently running and which aren't23:21
Tenkawaraindodger: in another distro they used this example : sv status /var/service/* (not sure if devuan puts the paths in same spot or not)23:39
raindodgerThank you Tenkawa. I'll give it a go23:49
Tenkawagood luck23:52
