fsmithredgnarface, partition type id does not need to be unique. You can have more than one partition of the same type. e.g. multiple linux partitions, multiple vfat partitions, etc. I see the codes for /home, /, /usr in gdisk when I have it display the list of partition types. I have no idea why those special codes exist.00:20
fsmithredI just use 8300 for all the linux partitions.00:22
gnarfaceoh i see, of course, type ids00:22
gnarfacei didn't think they went that high, i thought the linux one was a 2-digit number00:22
gnarfaceand then a different one for swap00:22
fsmithredgdisk man page says there's some correspondence between fdisk and gdisk type id00:23
fsmithredfdisk id X 0x100 = gdisk id00:23
gnarfaceoh they're different than the fdisk ones, i see00:23
gnarfacethanks for that info00:23

fsmithredhuh?00:24
ibanjafsmithred: I just use 8300 for all linux partitions as well.  I was just curious about the additional IDs.03:19

NFVblogI installed Devuan on VM to make the necessary comparisons with Debian 7 and also with the new debian 11, the fact that it has the possibility to choose the init is really a positive thing and also in terms of the choice of free and non-free packages it turns out quite apt11:59
brocashelmnfvblog: yeah, it's very 1:1 with debian, just with systemd blacklisted and about 200-300 packages that are forked (you can check with "devuan" appended to the versions) to make sure packages like network-manager and udisks2 work with sysvinit, runit, openrc, etc.12:14
brocashelmand also, it's worth noting the magic of amprolla and hence devuan's "merged" repository12:17
NFVblogbrocashelm: then it is certainly a good distro and having also been born in Italy, so anyway you can see how much discontent with systemd was at the time, I was still among those in the front line and I have always defined myself as opposed to its closure and its wanting to impose itself as standard, forever breaking compatibility with other Unixes12:30
drdozermm, I'm still having issues with monitors not sleeping14:02
drdozerit is definitely chrome that is preventing it - if I kill chrome, my monitors sleep and when chrome is alive, they do not14:02
drdozeris there some dbus way to blacklist chrome from altering the sleep status?14:03
drdozerI can't see anything in dbus-monitor that looks like chrome inhibiting sleep14:08
drdozerthe internets tells me to ask with systemd-inhibit, but obviously that doesn't work in devuan and I don't know what the corresponding command would be14:22
unixbsdhello14:44
unixbsdthis linphone on DEVUAN DOES NOT WORK, i.e. the audio is laggy !!14:44
unixbsdthe audio with pavuconrtrol shows that the audio is up/down not working.14:44
unixbsda fix would be welcome.14:45
unixbsdtested on devuan amd64.14:45
drdozernarrowing it down - chrome takes out inhibition locks when it plays video e.g. youtube14:49
