| lwevdo | Hello... | 03:15 |
| lwevdo | just installed devuan but now get install from dvd but I have no dvd | 03:16 |
| gnarface | hello lwevdo, not sure what you mean but did you forget to remove the install medium? | 03:18 |
| gnarface | (it may call itself a dvd even if it is a usb key) | 03:18 |
| lwevdo | no used light installl usb. this after a reboot. | 03:19 |
| gnarface | show me the filename of the image you used? | 03:19 |
| lwevdo | devuan_beowulf_3.1.0_amd64-server.iso | 03:20 |
| gnarface | hmm, server.iso again | 03:20 |
| lwevdo | and...? | 03:20 |
| gnarface | still need more information | 03:21 |
| gnarface | you say "get install from dvd" ... you mean you get an error message? | 03:21 |
| gnarface | it tells you to reinstall from dvd or something? | 03:21 |
| gnarface | i need clarification on that | 03:21 |
| lwevdo | I am trying to install apt's but errors to install dvd | 03:21 |
| gnarface | OH | 03:21 |
| gnarface | look in /etc/apt/sources.list | 03:21 |
| debdog | .oO(mayhap he's got to comment the DVD line in sources.list?) | 03:21 |
| gnarface | yea | 03:22 |
| gnarface | that's definitely what it is | 03:22 |
| gnarface | lwevdo: if you don't configure networking at install time, it leaves the path to the dvd image as a apt source in the /etc/apt/sources.list file | 03:22 |
| gnarface | lwevdo: (then complains if it is not present) | 03:23 |
| lwevdo | Thanks . you people are GODS! | 03:28 |
| gnarface | no problem | 03:29 |
| lwevdo | Sure would be nice if there was a wiki or two | 03:29 |
| gnarface | there's a forum that has largely been used in place of a wiki (check /topic) | 03:31 |
| gnarface | otherwise most debian docs should still apply | 03:33 |
| gnarface | for init stuff, look for debian wheezy documentation | 03:33 |
| gnarface | (or just ask here) | 03:34 |
| lwevdo | thanks.. been using desktop only for a while but thought I would convert server and wow the change | 03:35 |
| lwevdo | I will get it soon | 03:35 |
| lwevdo | what is /topic? | 03:35 |
| gnarface | you new to irc? | 03:36 |
| lwevdo | that too | 03:36 |
| gnarface | /topic is the IRC command you'd type to get your IRC client to spit out this current channel's topic string (kindof a message-of-the-day, but tech channels typically populate these with help urls) | 03:37 |
| gnarface | a typical graphical IRC client would also list the channel topic somewhere at the top of the window | 03:37 |
| gnarface | but it might be obscured by the text field dimensions | 03:38 |
| lwevdo | oohh interesting. Dam it I learn something everyday! | 03:41 |
| gnarface | nothing wrong with that | 03:41 |
| lwevdo | it would help if https://dev1galaxy.org/ was something like http/devuan.org/forum | 03:45 |
| gnarface | the forum was donated | 03:51 |
| lwevdo | got to love it.. and it will only get better | 03:52 |
| lwevdo | why is there 268 peps here yet no conversations? | 04:00 |
| numzob | most of us are bots ;) | 04:01 |
| lwevdo | aah.. | 04:01 |
| Xenguy | lwevdo: IRC can be asynchronous, so idle for awhile, to get all the replies to questions etc. | 04:01 |
| fluffywolf | also, we get yelled at if we talk about anything other than devuan. :P | 04:02 |
| numzob | there's an off-topic channel | 04:03 |
| Xenguy | Or we get pointed to #devuan-offtopic | 04:03 |
| lwevdo | but is there points to staying on here??? | 04:03 |
| numzob | to find out things you would not think to ask? | 04:03 |
| Xenguy | Sometimes if you have a question that has not been answered, you need to idle here for that, but otherwise, it's up to you where you want to spend your time : -) | 04:04 |
| gnarface | yep, you're encouraged to stick around, lwevdo... you'll learn stuff just reading about other people's issues | 04:04 |
| lwevdo | k if i only had the time to be a fly on the wall i will be here. My thinking is if you do not know, ask. | 04:07 |
| gnarface | it's just the way certain types of information are most efficiently disseminated | 04:08 |
| gnarface | high latency, low bandwidth | 04:08 |
| gnarface | also, you can use IRC channels to initiate private conversations with the members | 04:09 |
| gnarface | so just because you see silence doesn't necessarily mean nobody here is talking | 04:09 |
| gnarface | to be clear though, there are bots too | 04:09 |
| lwevdo | sadly my body is made to move. so perma sitting only hurts over time and it also kills ya | 04:09 |
| gnarface | and we don't actually know who run them all | 04:09 |
| gnarface | oh, i doubt most the other people are present at their stations here all the time either, you know | 04:10 |
| gnarface | people just leave their clients connected all the time, even when they're asleep or gone too | 04:11 |
| gnarface | you won't be booted for being idle or anything | 04:11 |
| gnarface | the server load is trivial | 04:11 |
| lwevdo | i guess it is a form of socializing. but life is too short | 04:12 |
| gnarface | yes, it is true that a lot of people here have nothing better to do either | 04:13 |
| gnarface | but actually talking about it is what the #devuan-offtopic channel is for | 04:13 |
| gnarface | this channel is mostly for support issues | 04:13 |
| gnarface | enjoy your devuan | 04:14 |
| lwevdo | just waiting around for that to happen... | 04:19 |
| mason | lwevdo: I get a little indicator when there's activity here, so if I'm free I can look. | 04:28 |
| mason | lwevdo: The same is true for the other 50 channels I'm on. | 04:28 |
| mason | And I get different colours for different priorities, to help direct my interest. | 04:29 |
| lwevdo | what your room light goes bright? | 04:29 |
| mason | No, the channel name on screen. | 04:30 |
| mason | If I happen to look at IRC I'll see it. | 04:30 |
| mason | For garden-variety traffic, meaning my client hasn't noticed anything it knows I'm interested in, the channel name goes from regular text to boldface. | 04:31 |
| mason | Interesting things, the channel becomes boldface and green. Messages just for me, it goes boldface and red. There can be more levels than that, but that's enough for what I want. | 04:31 |
| lwevdo | Hmm.. cool. But I hope you are standing. The blood flows better. Or in Devuan talk you system flows better. | 04:33 |
| mason | I'll be prone presently. Good night. :) | 04:33 |
| lwevdo | happy colors tonight. | 04:35 |
| rdr | so devuan 3.1, like debian, choked on my drive setup, installing grub to "dummy" | 09:41 |
| rdr | i managed to boot into the system using a boot repair disk, but there was no software | 09:42 |
| rdr | not even "shutdown" or "reboot" worked | 09:42 |
| rdr | apt worked, but it said sddm was installed, no sddm service existed in runit | 09:43 |
| rdr | guess i'm not a VUA lol | 09:44 |
| Weeezy | hello friends, I'm in need of a simple lightweight audio recording tool for devuan, is there one included that I just need to initiate or perhaps something in the repository | 18:46 |
| hagbard_ | If you want a minimalistic command line tool, arecord (probably altready installed) will so. | 18:46 |
| hagbard_ | *do. | 18:47 |
| Weeezy | cool. | 18:47 |
| Weeezy | I'll give it a try. | 18:47 |
| Weeezy | thankyou | 18:47 |
| hagbard_ | If you want to cut/modify audio, audacity will be the thing. | 18:47 |
| lkjasdf | ffmpeg would be the command line tool for cutting and splicing audio | 18:54 |
| luser977 | sox ? | 23:52 |
| luser977 | cli for audio: sox | 23:54 |
