| al1r4d | I had trouble connecting to the 8021x wifi connection on IWD, so I switched to network-manager. | 09:14 |
|---|---|---|
| al1r4d | oh yeah, network manager, thank you | 09:15 |
| cousin_luigi | al1r4d: network manager can use either wpa_supplicant or iwd | 10:41 |
| HumanG33k | hello, do you know if needrestart(default conf) can prevent/break unattended-upgrade ? | 13:38 |
| CueXXIII | i don't see how it could, it is run after the upgrade from apt | 13:40 |
| HumanG33k | CueXXIII: with no tty so needrestart can keep lock on apt files waiting user interaction will never come ? | 13:41 |
| CueXXIII | it says to only list needed changes when run with no tty in the manpage | 13:43 |
| CueXXIII | and it should not hold any locks anymore… | 13:47 |
| CueXXIII | ah, it would hold locks (E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock-frontend. It is held by process 7094 (apt-get)) as long as needrestart is blocking | 13:48 |
| CueXXIII | but it would just stop further unattended upgrades | 13:48 |
| iasg1 | hello! i am running devuan 5 with runit. i have no experience with it prior to now. i need a line of script to execute on boot. what file do i edit? | 15:33 |
| iasg1 | (must be run as root because it edits my laptop's voltage variable) | 15:34 |
| CueXXIII | if nothing else works (i don't know runit either), you can specify @reboot in the crontab | 15:46 |
| fsmithred | iasg1, it might work to put it in /etc/rc.local - runit uses sysvinit scripts if there's no runit script, so maybe. (I haven't tested it.) | 15:52 |
| iasg1 | fsmithred: i'll try that one now | 15:54 |
| iasg1 | CueXXIII: unfortunately cron and anacron are not an option for me | 15:54 |
| iasg1 | fsmithred: it worked! thank you all! | 15:55 |
| gordonDrogon | upgrading desktop from Beowulf to Chimera - if I don't return you'll know it's failed... | 22:30 |
| gordonDrogon | it's broken my desktop. I can no-longer right click to get the menu and the colours are wrong (again). Bother. | 22:32 |
| gnarface | gordonDrogon: you sure it's not expected behavior? i know they changed the default theme from red to blue, and maybe they just moved the right-click menu to a different mouse button? | 22:34 |
| gordonDrogon | tried other buttons. no joy. this worked a couple of weeks back on my laptop. | 22:34 |
| gordonDrogon | I did it on the laptop as it was fairly sactificial.. | 22:34 |
| gordonDrogon | what the photon! Warning - unsafe paste. Not had that before. Don't get it on the laptop. *groan* Stop babying me. | 22:39 |
| gnarface | heh, yea it warns you now when pasting newlines or other control characters into a terminal | 22:45 |
| gnarface | i don't mind it much but it's slightly annoying, i have been meaning to look into how to turn it off | 22:46 |
| gnarface | someone around here probably knows | 22:46 |
| gordonDrogon | weird I didn't get it on the laptop. You right-click in the terminal and find preferances - it's at the bottom. | 22:49 |
| gordonDrogon | more unneeded bloat )-: | 22:49 |
| gnarface | hmm, no right-click menu on urxvt | 22:52 |
| rrq | gnarface: afaiui, that "bracketed paste" mis-feature belongs to bash | 22:55 |
| rrq | turned off with: bind 'set enable-bracketed-paste 0' | 22:55 |
| gnarface | ah, thanks rrq | 22:55 |
| rrq | (that command results in some warning message in non-interactive mode) | 22:58 |
| gordonDrogon | looks like I hit this: https://gitlab.xfce.org/xfce/xfdesktop/-/issues/223 | 22:58 |
| gordonDrogon | weird I didn't see it on the laptop, however I'm now upgrading from C to D, so maybe it'll be fixed then.. | 22:59 |
| gnarface | gordonDrogon: only idea i have about why you might see it on one install but not another is that maybe on the one where it broke you didn't have a default gtk icon theme to fall back on... i've seen a bug like this hit Firefox at some point a long time ago | 23:09 |
| gordonDrogon | maybe. D upgrade is failing on my desktop and I don't want to reboot until the kernel gets installed rightly. | 23:10 |
| gnarface | oh, or maybe it's just the settings of turning off the icons, but i guess i had assumed you checked that already | 23:10 |
| gnarface | ugh, yea, uh, beware of 6.1.0-18 if you're using nvidia hardware, i don't know if a fix has been published yet | 23:11 |
| gnarface | not seeing anything newer in the repos yet | 23:12 |
| gordonDrogon | yup - nvidia. I had one once, but not now. | 23:12 |
| gnarface | but 6.1.0-17 should still work | 23:12 |
| gordonDrogon | so purged it and the upgrade seems fine - going to reboot - again, lets hope for the best.. | 23:12 |
| gordonDrogon | almost. still not right-click menu. | 23:14 |
| gordonDrogon | and it's now lost some keybindings - but the laptop did that too )-: | 23:14 |
| gnarface | hmm | 23:17 |
| gnarface | well, the advice that fixed firefox for me all those years ago | 23:17 |
| joerg | dang, I see https://gitlab.xfce.org/ and I *read* XKCD ;-) | 23:17 |
| gnarface | ... was to install "tango-icon-theme" then add gtk-icon-theme-name="Tango" to the ~/.gtkrc-2.0 file | 23:18 |
| gnarface | (theoretically any icon theme would work) | 23:18 |
| gnarface | that way it won't just collapse buttons that expect graphics | 23:19 |
| gordonDrogon | that bug report says to "check" the box, but I can't get no box to check.. | 23:21 |
| gnarface | hmm | 23:22 |
| gnarface | i wonder if it can be manually changed in a text file somewhere instead | 23:22 |
| gordonDrogon | I've grepped all files for that message - not found. | 23:23 |
| gnarface | hey golinux do you know any fix for this? | 23:26 |
| golinux | Reading . . . | 23:28 |
| golinux | have to catch up | 23:28 |
| gnarface | golinux: specifically the missing right-click menu in xfce on chimaera thing, the thing about unsafe pastes isn't important | 23:29 |
| golinux | Thanks. That doesn't sound familiar and I did a fresh Chimaera install because I didn't want to have to go through ascii and beowulf | 23:31 |
| golinux | Everything worked fine once I had everything in place. | 23:32 |
| gordonDrogon | if I run this on my laptop: xfconf-query -c xfce4-desktop -lv | 23:33 |
| golinux | I did a refracta install now that I think about it | 23:33 |
| gordonDrogon | then I see: /desktop-menu/show true | 23:33 |
| gordonDrogon | but it's false on my desktop. I just can't yet find where that is set.. | 23:33 |
| gordonDrogon | however it will have to wait until tomorrow. bed time here. | 23:34 |
| golinux | fsmithred would know | 23:36 |
| golinux | Give him a sec to see this. | 23:36 |
| gnarface | the thing about it happening to one install but not the other makes me think missing package | 23:36 |
| golinux | There could be lots of variables in an upbrade | 23:37 |
| golinux | b > g | 23:38 |
