gnarface | well it's easy to fix the default fonts | 00:04 |
---|---|---|
gnarface | just install some better fonts | 00:04 |
yellyFish | any recommendations? | 00:06 |
gnarface | are you used to the windows ones, is that the problem? | 00:06 |
gnarface | they're in some package in contrib or non-free... i forget exactly what it's called | 00:07 |
gnarface | something about core web fonts or some crap | 00:07 |
gnarface | but there's so many options | 00:07 |
gnarface | i like the bitstream ones but i don't think they're the most popular | 00:07 |
gnarface | try these commands | 00:08 |
gnarface | `apt-cache search ttf-` | 00:08 |
gnarface | `apt-cache search fonts-` | 00:08 |
gnarface | that should show you most of them but there may be others... | 00:08 |
gnarface | it will probably show you a couple things that are not fonts too, sorry about that... don't just blindly install every package that gets listed | 00:12 |
gnarface | oh and FYI you can change the hinting with `dpkg-reconfigure fontconfig-config` | 00:18 |
gnarface | i think that should still work anyway | 00:18 |
yellyFish | yeah i did | 00:19 |
gnarface | https://wiki.debian.org/Fonts - this page says to do it like `dpkg-reconfigure fontconfig fontconfig-config` to regenerate caches | 00:20 |
gnarface | (i know that's a debian wiki link but none of that should be different in devuan) | 00:21 |
golinux | Why is synaptic showing me upgrades for linux-image-4.9 etc. from bpo even though I do not have bpo enabled in my source.list? | 01:17 |
golinux | I've never seen that before. | 01:18 |
gnarface | forgot to run apt-get update after taking it out of your sources.list? | 01:25 |
gnarface | or it's in one of the sources.list.d/ files | 01:25 |
gnarface | ? | 01:25 |
gnarface | or it's already installed... | 01:25 |
gnarface | ? | 01:25 |
gnarface | no i guess that wouldn't be it | 01:25 |
gnarface | oh, it could be in your cache maybe | 01:25 |
gnarface | if you had started installing it then canceled before it completed maybe? | 01:26 |
golinux | gnarface: I did it the old-fashioned way and got it sorted. | 02:08 |
golinux | The bpo kernel upgrades weren't listed in the update and disappeared from synaptic after the upgrade was finished. | 02:10 |
golinux | Must be a synaptic issue | 02:11 |
yellyFish | now this is wierd. yesterday i installed micropolis and it worked fine but now i can't make the heatmap work in the minimap... | 02:47 |
yellyFish | i am not sure what i changed | 02:48 |
yellyFish | messing around it seems to work but sometimes | 03:00 |
xrogaan | for some reason, x-www-browser launch chromium instead of firefox for some apps, and I have no idea why. | 07:18 |
xrogaan | I assume it's because of the session, but if that's the case it's stupid. | 07:18 |
xrogaan | I made some changes in the alternative, restored the original firefox instead of the one I installed myself. | 07:19 |
xrogaan | but for some reason the system doesn't recognize it properly | 07:19 |
xrogaan | yeah, so, not x-www-browser but xdg-open | 07:20 |
xrogaan | because of this nonsense: $ xdg-settings get default-web-browser | 07:21 |
xrogaan | userapp-Firefox-CRPQKZ.desktop | 07:21 |
xrogaan | Why does it store a stupid .desktop file. NONSENSE. | 07:21 |
xrogaan | Honest, I forgot about xdg-open | 07:26 |
gnarface | xrogaan: x-www-browser is defined by the "alternatives" system... it isn't different from debian. can't tell you about the .desktop files | 08:41 |
gnarface | https://wiki.debian.org/DebianAlternatives | 08:42 |
gnarface | (the important point is you can change it) | 08:42 |
gnarface | (if it's different and you don't know why it probably has something to do with install order) | 08:43 |
xrogaan | gnarface: there are two level: system and DE. | 11:10 |
xrogaan | I restored stuff at the system level, but the DE was still misconfigured. | 11:10 |
hoshineko | ibus doesn't seem to be working in firefox, anyone?, i'm not using a DE, only a wm, if that's relevant | 11:15 |
hoshineko | anthy btw | 11:35 |
hoshineko | huh, nevermind, I was just missing ibus-gtk3 | 11:45 |
xkr47 | I hate how installing openrc on devuan is so simple as `apt-get install openrc` that there is no webpage to tell me how to do it :D | 18:01 |
telst4r | haha, perhaps you should write one | 18:03 |
xkr47 | yeah, just for people like me.... | 18:03 |
telst4r | I thought it would be a bigger task, since an init system is kinda crucial part.. afaik | 18:06 |
xkr47 | yeah, kindof boring that there aren't a ton of problems to manually resolve :D | 18:07 |
telst4r | You miss the redhat dependency hell days? | 18:08 |
Lydia_K | xkr47: Sounds like you'd enjoy Gentoo :) | 18:11 |
xkr47 | Lydia_K, I DO! | 18:13 |
xkr47 | at home, I have two machines with gentoo, one with devuan, and one of the gentoo machines hosts a lot of VMs, most of them running debian but I just converted one of the debian jessies to devuan ascii, mostly smooth | 18:15 |
xkr47 | and in the cloud I have one fedora and one debian | 18:15 |
Lydia_K | Awesome :) | 18:15 |
xkr47 | but devuan is just smooth, I hope to convert all debians to devuan | 18:17 |
xkr47 | and feels good when the first step of the migration guide is apt-get remove systemd :) | 18:18 |
Lydia_K | Awesome :) | 18:18 |
Lydia_K | That's really good to hear! | 18:19 |
xkr47 | there was some bug during upgrade of initramfs-tools that crashed the "dist-upgrade" step but I unfortunately forgot to document it | 18:20 |
xkr47 | I was able to resolve it with apt-get -f install or something | 18:20 |
xkr47 | oh yeah | 18:20 |
xkr47 | /etc/udev/udev.conf was missing | 18:21 |
xkr47 | there was a udev.conf.dpkg-new and something else else in the dir | 18:22 |
xkr47 | so I renamed that to udev.conf and then apt-get -f install and then apt-get dist-upgrade again | 18:22 |
xkr47 | dunno how that situation emerged tho | 18:23 |
xkr47 | interestingly, I have a snapshot of the vm before the upgrade | 18:44 |
Pr0metheus | anyone uses libre linux kernel has any idea if irqbalance getting removed has any effect in performance? | 19:01 |
