ham5urgfsmithred, thanks I got ungoogled-chromium in chimaera.00:17
fsmithredyeah, it seems to work ok.00:18
XenguyIs that packaged?00:19
fsmithredyes, but not in repo00:19
XenguyIs it truly possible to 'ungoogle' something?00:19
Xenguyaha00:19
Xenguy3rd party00:19
XenguySeems like if it's the real deal, it would be a good thing to have packaged in Devuan00:20
XenguyBut I know, who's gonna do the heavy lifting?00:20

fsmithredworks in chimaera00:22
XenguyI'll upgrade to Chimaera once it's officially released, that will be my reward00:28
XenguyThanks for the pointers00:28
golinuxfsmithred: No 32bit ungoogled?01:03
fsmithredI think there is01:04
fsmithredchop off some of the url and look around01:04
golinuxI have known about it for years but never got around to investigating.01:04
fsmithredsame here01:05
golinuxYeah. I'll find it . . . if I can remember. LOL!01:05
n4diri think it was that MXLinux guy who first posted about the opensuse thing. Never looked though.01:05
n4diri forgot his name, hence "that guy". That was not meant disrespectful01:06
golinuxSteve PUsser01:06
brocashelmstevenpusser?01:06
n4diryes. what a relief01:06
golinuxThat is his repo01:06
brocashelmhe also packages pale moon for debian01:06
golinuxwhich I use01:06
brocashelmsame01:06
fsmithredhttps://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/ungoogled_chromium/Debian_Sid/01:06
n4dirat MX or Mepis they had their community repos, which sometimes helped for unpacked stuff01:06
golinuxMepis is no more for some time01:07
golinuxMorphed to MX01:07
brocashelmwould be great if devuan had some exclusive packages like ungoogled chromium but i know that's not the point of the distro so it 95% likely won't happen01:07
golinuxAWe are ot here now01:07
n4dirwhat is AWe?01:08
golinuxProjects can be shared via ourgit01:08
brocashelmi recall something about allowing the liboobs thing in devuan's repos, but no one ever stepped up01:08
golinuxA typo01:08
n4dirha. i thought it was some internal stuff01:08
golinuxThere will be no official "ppas" for devuan01:09
golinuxNeed to go trim bushes01:09
jiefkHi all ! Where can I find lsusb package on the *testing* release ? Thanks !08:52
jiefkNevermind ... It's there now... I swear it was not on my system a week ago08:56
brocashelmi see runit just got updated on ceres (2.1.2-42)13:06
APicYo. With my current ceres, sane-find-scanner cannot find my USB Scanner even though lsusb shows it: Bus 001 Device 006: ID 04a9:220d Canon, Inc. CanoScan N670U/N676U/LiDE 2021:06
APicStrangely, /proc/bus/usb does not even exist21:06
APicAm i missing some Kernel Module?21:07
APicHm21:11
APicRebooted, and now it is found21:11
APicStrange21:12
brocashelmIIRC, saned is a daemon that needs to be restarted after upgrading (needrestart will let you know which processes need to be restarted)21:16
fsmithredAPic, I'll plug mine into the chimaera laptop and see what happens21:18
fsmithredoh. nm21:18
ham5urgIs there a decent chromebook which could be run with devuan out there? A 2in1 laptop which can stand longer than a amd64-one would be great.23:18
fsmithredham5urg, I tried to mess with my sister's chromebook to see if I could install devuan, but I could not get into whatever the setup is called because it was past its expiration date.23:34
fsmithredI kid you not.23:34
fsmithredthose things have a scheduled death.23:35
ham5urgexpiration date?23:35
ham5urgSerious?23:35
fsmithredI think they have a better name for it23:35
fsmithredI am serious. Google it.23:35
fsmithredmaybe they aren't all like that.23:35
Tenkawathat is nothing but a end of life/support by google date23:37
ham5urgI've heard about the coming Intel CPUs, that these will have mixed type of cores. Atom and Core. Maybe that is a right step.23:38
Tenkawathey don't stop the machine physically from running23:38
brocashelmplanned obsolescence and perceived obsolescence23:42
brocashelmdevuan runs blazing fast, even on older core2/i3/i5/i7 cpus23:43
brocashelmi can only imagine how much snappier it'll run once i deploy my amd ryzen 5 3600 rig23:43
ham5urgDoes anyone had success in convincing a customer to use Devuan instead of mainstream-systemd-linux-distros? I succeeded rarely. But if, the customer never went back from Devuan.23:47
brocashelmusers would have to want to use debian at minimum if devuan is considered, but criticisms of systemd/red hat/gnome/pulseaudio/networkmanager/polkit/d-bus/wayland isn't something that they care about and will just go with the distro that's the most "user-friendly" or "like windows 7/10"23:58
