chomwittGoodmorning.09:53
chomwitthttps://pkginfo.devuan.org/cgi-bin/package-query.html?c=package&q=gccintro=1.0-4  has a dead link. where do i report it as an issue?09:53
rrqwould be to debians bug tracker for that one09:55
chomwittthanks, but if i may ask what is the critiria to lookup when deciding that?09:56
chomwittthe maintainer field?09:57
rrqit concernes the package, whci is a debian package, i.e. not forked by Devuan09:58
chomwitt whci ?09:58
rrqit concerns the package, which is a debian package, i.e. not forked by Devuan09:58
chomwitthow do i see whether a package is forked or not?09:59
rrqe.g. Filename: pool/DEBIAN/... for debian packages pool/DEVUAN/.. for forked packages10:00
chomwittrrq thanks10:00
rrqnw :)10:01
chomwittis nw for not worry like np for not problem?10:02
rrqindeed10:02
chomwitti see.10:02
rrq"no worries"10:02
chomwittsorry but how do i report an issue for a debian package from within my devuan system ?10:53
chomwittback when i used debian i used reportbug program10:54
chomwitthttps://bugs.devuan.org/Reporting.html  i read i10:56
chomwitti read it10:56
chomwittit says to report in debian BTS.10:58
* chomwitt tries reportbug in devuan10:58
rwpUnless it is one of the banned packages from https://pkgmaster.devuan.org/bannedpackages.txt then it is a passed through Debian package.11:02
rrqsend an email to submit@bugs.debian.org with first line as "Package: gccintro" oand second line as "Version: 1.0-4" and then whatever descriptive and useful details you think of.11:03
rrqoand = and11:03
* chomwitt thanks rrq and rwp11:05
chomwittok. i posted my issue with reportbug and i got back an email from devuan-bugs-owner@lists.dyne.org . So i'm not sure that it was passed automatically to debian tracker.12:47
chomwittAnyway i did a mistake. there is already a report for the same issue io Debian Bug Tracker, but one year old.12:49
chomwittmy issue is on devuan bug tracker https://bugs.devuan.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=65413:01

fluffywolflaptop crashed on ac power change again this morning.  I went to it just after the power was back on, and it was hung with the cpu fan running full speed, but this time magic sysrq works.  seems magic sysrq works for a limited time, presumably as whatever is exploding explodes further it stops.19:32
fluffywolfI'm trying to reproduce it while running top -d 0.1, but of course it's working fine every time I try...19:32
_ds_Anything in the logs?19:32
fluffywolfor maybe I fixed it when I killed elogind and it just needed a reboot...19:32
fluffywolfnothing gets logged.19:33
fluffywolfI'm assuming it's too dead to write to disc.19:33
fluffywolfohh, this time something did get logged!19:34
fluffywolfprobably because I was able to reisub it this time.19:34
_ds_In the case of nothing making it to a log file, I'd use netconsole.19:34
fluffywolfsomething in the usb stack crashed19:35
fluffywolfhttp://paste.debian.net/1227303/  does this make any sense to anyone?  is it even related?  heh19:42
fluffywolfand is the reason I can't reproduce it unplugging my laptop's power actually because it's a usb device losing power that's causing the crash?  lol19:43
fluffywolfsyslog has slightly more info.  http://paste.debian.net/1227304/19:46
_ds_Definitely list corruption, but the cause remains unknown.20:01
rwpI don't know either but I would definitely consider booting the previous release's kernel for testing.20:08
fluffywolfholy fuck #linux is worthless.20:26
fluffywolfI was able to reproduce it once on unplugging my main usb hub, so the problem is indeed usb-related from a usb device dropping off the bus when the power goes off, not acpi or otherwise related to the laptop losing power.20:27
fluffywolfI wasn't able to reproduce it unplugging any specific device, nor by unplugging the hub more times, so...  yay hard to reproduce problems.20:27
fluffywolfno one seems alive in ##kernel20:28
rwpIt's Sunday afternoon somewhere...20:37
ErRandirMaybe commit 7faac1953ed1 will fix it but that is only in v5.16.20:39
_ds_fluffywolf, https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/lib/list_debug.c – see the comment near the top.20:51
fluffywolfyeah, I assumed that's what list_debug did.  :P20:52
fluffywolfit's finding a list that's not self-consistent and complaining.  the list is coming from the usb stack, looking list the list_del at the bottom of https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/tree/drivers/usb/host/xhci.c?h=v5.14#n2620 .  but that tells me zero about why the list is getting broken, or how to fix it.20:53
fluffywolfs/looking list/looking like20:53
fluffywolfI don't know nearly enough about either usb or the kernel usb drivers to tell if something in that function is breaking the list, or if the list is being broken elsewhere (could have been on usb connect at boot for all I know) and just being noticed then.20:56
_ds_ErRandir, that one's backported; 5.15.8 has it. I don't see it in 5.14 stable, though.20:57
fluffywolfsomeone in ##kernel offered a few suggestions, but I don't think they understand it sufficiently better than I do to help.20:57
fluffywolfthis might be a send-to-lkml-and-wait issue.21:05
fluffywolfon a related bug, colord-sane segfaults every time a usb device is plugged or unplugged, of any kind.  but removing it didn't fix anything.  is that an unrelated bug in colord, or something being triggered by this bug, I do not know.21:07
wikanwhich iso contains additional wireless drivers? live?21:12
fluffywolfI guess I should upgrade to 5.16.1 and reproduce, then lkml.21:13
golinuxwikan: Yes. Live has non-free firmware as does the net install21:20
golinux"To select an alternate bootloader (lilo) or exclude non-free firmware, choose "Expert install" under Advanced options. "21:20
wikannetinstal has O.o?21:22
wikandownloading ...21:23
wikanhow hard is to create my own installer for devuan? i think about my custom version of devuan.21:23
fluffywolfwhat's the current debian way to install a kernel from source using a debian config and packaging?21:24
fluffywolfthere seems to be some conflicting ways, with notes like "Dec 1, 2021 — This is an obsolete now guide on how to build the Linux Kernel into a .deb package"  heh.21:25
fluffywolfpages I'm finding all seem both outdated and conflicting.21:33
fluffywolfI mean, most are from 2.* days.  lol21:34
wikanbtw, my kernel vommits on tty when I move the mouse and connect usb devices21:35
wikanit is annoying because i use tty O.o21:35
wikanit ways it can't load something... let me check21:36
wikanmust wait until dd finish21:36
wikanit is mtr or somthink like that, but will check soon21:37
fluffywolfok, found something that actually applies to 5.*, and it says that all of everything else I read is wrong, and you just run make deb-pkg and it all magically works.21:43
wikanfailed to execute mtp-probe21:43
fluffywolfgrrrr, except I can't build it to due libssl version issues.21:44
fluffywolflibssl is only slightly better than python at fucking up building new things.21:44
* fluffywolf wonders how long make -j4 on an older i5 laptop is going to take21:47
wikani5 and "older"? lol21:56
fluffywolfthe i5 is 13 years old now.21:57
fluffywolfin computing terms, that's definitely older.21:58
wikanwow, 13?21:58
fluffywolf2009...21:59
wikanhow much cores and hz?21:59
fluffywolf2, 2.5ish21:59
wikanhmmm, didn't know21:59
wikanmaybe i have i5 then21:59
wikani feel old :|22:00
fluffywolfthere's a wide variety of cpus with the i5 label.  mine is one of the older ones, but not the very earliest.22:00
* fluffywolf actually checks, has a Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-3360M CPU @ 2.80GHz22:00
wikanmy laptop is about 15 yo22:00
fluffywolflooks like this cpu is from 2012, so only ten years old.22:01
wikanlinux is amazing ;)22:01
wikanhow it feels to run firefox on your laptop?22:02
fluffywolffirefox is slow no matter what you run it on.22:02
fluffywolfbrb, food22:02
wikanat least firefox works. webkit based browsers on old machine doesn't.22:03
wikanyou kidding me :| 99% of downloaded file and error :|22:07
* brocashelm is rocking a couple of core 2 duo/quad rigs22:11
brocashelmworks for me22:11
