aitoryes, clearlooks in one of the best themes00:00
aitorthe new version of simple-netaid is base on openwrt's software bus, and its design is much clearer now00:00
aitori added the systray icon and a double paned terminal (based on gnome's libvte), and the panel below shows the routing table netlink events00:03
aitori've just built new images of gnuinos using this new version, and i'm going to test them right now00:05
fsmithredcool00:05
fsmithredaitor, do you have a link to packages?00:05
golinuxWhy is this not available in Devuan repos?00:05
aitorthey are in the repo, here you are the list:00:06
golinuxMaybe that's what Daedalus needs?00:06
aitorlibubox0, libubus0, ubus, libjson-c5, libnetaid0, snetaid, simple-netaid-cdk, simple-netaid-vte300:06
aitorgolinux: shortly i'll build it for daedalus00:07
golinux*\o/*00:07
aitorsimple-netaid-vte3 is the Gtk+ container for simple-netaid-cdk, a very simple terminal with the systray00:08
aitorfsmithred, youll need to add yourself to the netaid group to get things working00:11
fsmithredthanks00:12
fsmithredare any of those libraries in the devuan repos?00:12
aitornope00:13
aitoronly libjson00:13
aitorbut they are very lightweight, ubus builds in a few seconds00:14
aitoroh! and also libvte-2.91, available in devuan00:17
aitori called the container vte3 because libvte-2.91 uses Gtk3, but now i'm working on a Gtk2 version based on libvte-0.000:18
aitor00:20 here, time to bed00:19
aitortake care, bye00:21
systemdlete60I searched for simple-netaid, but not much about it out there.   What is this?01:52
golinuxIt was a netwrok connector based on Ed Barx's simple-netaid https://lists.dyne.org/lurker/search/20380101.000000.00000000@ml:dng,simple-netaid.en.html01:54
systemdlete60I am not familiar with it, sorry.  What does it do?01:55
golinuxsystemdlete: ^^^ lots of history there01:55
golinuxConnects you to the net.01:55
systemdlete60In 20 words or so?01:55
systemdlete60so, like, nm or wicd?01:55
golinuxYes.01:55
systemdlete60but maybe actually.... works as one might expect such to do?01:55
systemdlete60I might try it.01:56
golinuxThere is lots to read at the link I provided01:56
golinuxGoes back to 2016 - https://lists.dyne.org/lurker/message/20160208.103243.b332c0e8.en.html01:58
golinuxActually first iteration was netman.01:59
golinuxIt's gone through a lot since then01:59
golinuxOriginal files were lost when we moved from gitlab02:00
plasma41golinux: rrq may still have backups of the repos from the old gitlab server. I seem to recall having him getting me the backup of one of the old repos, blinkdog's pad formatter, IIRC.02:02
systemdlete60I vaguely recall something with a name like netman-- was that ever included in other distros?02:02
brocashelmjust switched from intel to amd. what's a good way to get accurate temp info for each cpu core with sensors? tried sudo sensors-detect and that unlocked some areas, but it's still not the same as with intel where you could easily see the temps of each core02:04
brocashelmand also ways i can unlock its potential with cpufreq/cpupower02:07
fsmithredI have netman-gui_0.1.1-1_amd64.deb and netman-backend same version02:11
fsmithredisn't there a kernel module for amd temps?02:12
golinuxplasma41: Thanks for reminding me.  aitor has taken what was netman in a different direction. We talked about it earlier today.02:14
golinux@16:45 our time.02:15
systemdletegolinux, fsmithred:  What I really want is the ability to define multiple network configurations and select one of them either by a desktop tool or a command line tool.02:15
fsmithredin /etc/network/interfaces?02:15
golinuxWell . . . aitor went off to sleep. It might be on the gnuinos site.02:16
plasma41golinux: I'll check it out.02:16
golinux<aitor> a new release of simple-netaid is available in packages.gnuinos.org02:16
systemdleteWhen I say "configuration" I mean I might have 3 different internet devices, and for Config A I might want to use 2 of them, one connecting to the net and another to my LAN.  Then Config B might use the same devices, but now one of the devices connects to a router, and another to wifi and another to LAN.  etc.02:16
* golinux is convinced that systemdlete is a masochist02:17
systemdletefsmithred:  How can I do this with /etc/network/interfaces?02:17
fsmithredyou might need multiple config files and a way to switch them that brings the networks down and up again02:17
* golinux needs to take out the compost02:17
systemdleteright02:17
fsmithredI'm not good enough with networking to do what you want02:18
systemdleteWell, I am sort of hoping that this netman/simple-netaid biz might be able to do this.02:18
fsmithredI know there's a way you can configure the same interface for different networks in one file by giving them unique names02:18
systemdletegolinux:  I have a test box which I use for multiple networking configs.  Sometimes, I connect the host directly to the LAN, but sometimes I have a different setup.  Currently, it is not smooth to switch from one to the next.02:19
systemdletefsmithred, aha!02:19
fsmithredeasiest way to check out the latest version of simple-netaid is to download the latest gnuinos isos (if they're up yet)02:20
fsmithredsystemdlete, it's explained in the debian handbook. You might need an older version. Not sure.02:20
brocashelmfsmithred: i commented out blacklist microcode in /etc/modprobe.d and i'm still limited to wahtever is in k10temp-pci (tctl and tccd1)02:20
brocashelmi installed from this repo and nothing changed: https://github.com/leogx9r/ryzen_smu02:21
fsmithredoh, new hardware?02:21
brocashelmusing amd ryzen 5 360002:21
fsmithredno clue here02:21
brocashelmswitched out of intel i7-377002:21
systemdleteguinos... ok, thanks.02:21
systemdleteguinos doesn't have any... uh... y'know, "infection" that I need to worry about right?02:22
fsmithredsystemdlete, I just scrolled up and aitor said he's testing the new isos now.02:23
fsmithredand hell no! gnuinos is completely libre02:23
brocashelmfsmithred: my first build, so i'm just figuring things out. had some sound problems until i replaced the cmos, did a flash bios, and then added options snd-hda-intel index=1,0 to /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf02:23
fsmithredand in libre kernel02:23
fsmithred"as in"02:23
systemdletekool, thanks fsmithred02:24
fsmithredbrb02:24
systemdleteI just skimmed (I mean really quickly) man interfaces.  I don't see anything about unique names (you mean like, labels?)02:24
golinuxgnuinos (sp)02:24
systemdletehow the heck would anyone even try to pronounce that?02:25
brocashelmgnu (is) in (your) os02:25
systemdleteGWIN-ose?   Or GOO-in-nose?02:25
golinuxHe explained it to me at the conference gnu in os02:26
systemdleteGNU-in-ose?02:26
golinuxgnueenos02:26
systemdleteucccch02:26
systemdleteI am going to write an OS and call it "ENUF!"02:27
* golinux won't hold her breath02:27
brocashelmtell us all about it in ot02:27
systemdleteFirst release I propose to call "already"02:27
systemdletesure02:28
fsmithredsystemdlete, I can't find the old docs I remember, but this search should give you what you need: https://html.duckduckgo.com/html?q=debian%20multiple%20ip%20addresses%20on%20one%20interface02:40
rrqsystemdlete: I think fsmithred referred to the point that the configuration label (that comes after "iface") need not be the same as the interface name03:02
rrqyoud do "ifup eth0=foo" to use the "foo" configuration for eth003:02
fsmithredyeah, like eth0=home03:02
rrqin "man interfaces" it talks about "physical" name versus "logical" name03:03
rrqthe wpa_supplicant system has a wpa_roam option to utilize that also for wifi03:04
systemdleteWhen I read that part, I got the impression that was simply to change the name of the interface.03:59
systemdleteMaybe I read it wrong.03:59
systemdlete(I *was* skimming, after all)03:59
systemdletethat link returns a lot of info about establishing multiple IP addresses04:05
fsmithredthink of it as an alias that calls up a specific configuration04:05
systemdleteSo I would need a script or something to update the rename to whichever "profile" I wanted to use, something like that?04:09
systemdleteI could source an include file near the top04:09
systemdletewhich I could modify with a script I think04:10
systemdletehmmm.04:10
systemdletethis could work ok04:10
fsmithredifup eth0=name04:10
fsmithredyou could make panel buttons, you could make a script that uses yad to make a window with buttons or items in a list to click on04:10
systemdleteI mean, I could edit the file, but that is a bit clumsy.  Besides, this way, I can do some error checking04:10
systemdletefsmithred, yes. thank you04:11
fsmithredif you know other gui programming you could make a better clicky interface04:11
systemdleteeh.04:11
systemdleteI think command line will suffice.04:11
systemdleteIn some cases, I might not have a gui up and running anyway.04:11
fsmithredbut yad with shell script is pretty powerful and easy04:11
systemdleteIs that what you used for refractainstall?04:12
fsmithredthen just use ifupdown04:12
fsmithredyeah04:12
systemdlete:)04:12
fsmithredwas zenity at first, but yad is better and has fewer dependencies04:12
systemdleteI think I have enough clues now.04:13
aitorhi, I forgot to mention other dependencies like libcdk5nc6 and libsigc++-2.015:11
aitori've just uploaded the images of chimaera with the new version of simple-netaid:15:11
aitorhttps://www.gnuinos.org/mirror/chimaera/live15:11
fsmithreddownloading it now15:14
