D_VitoGreetings!13:12
D_VitoI am very happy to say that I fixed the problem of my Devuan installation, and now it is fully operative! Devuan is so great!!13:13
XenguyD_Vito:  Congrats and enjoy : -)14:40
D_Vito:)14:50
buZzlol, some arch user updated his computer , received a update for logind , systemd -CLOSED LOGIND- to restart it, which led to full Xorg closing and the update installation getting cancelled15:15
buZzcant even think up these issues :P rofl15:15
djphthat's *awesome*15:18
MinceRlol15:20
MinceRthat's like when debian did an update from a cronjob, which caused cron to be restarted, which killed the session from which the cronjob was started, killed the cronjob and failed the update15:21
djphouch15:27
D_Vitoterrible15:40
buZzMinceR: longrunning cronjobs?15:56
buZzi'd just cronjob a 'start job.sh' then15:56
MinceRnot that longrunning15:57
MinceRit's just that systemd/*logind kills processes belonging to a session when that session ends15:57
MinceReven though nobody asked for this15:57
MinceR(that is, by default)15:57
buZzlol15:57
buZzyou know , i feel that if systemd would -JUST- be a init system, we wouldnt even have issues with it15:58
MinceRsomeone was even burned by elogind with this15:58
MinceRyeah15:58
MinceRin part because if it was just an init system, we could swap it out easily if we didn't want it15:58
D_VitoBig problem is modularity16:00
D_VitoI use Kali 2, but ot comes with systemd. Everything was very unstable16:00
D_Vito*used16:00
Vonor_o/18:34
D_Vitohey fsmithred, i solved my problem :D18:34
fsmithredgreat!18:34
D_Vitomounted the usb, then installed firmware-misc-nonfree, so I could use the wi-fi adpter18:35
fsmithredD_Vito, did you have to make a symlink, or did apt find the usb?18:45
D_Vitoit did not find18:46
D_VitoI had o mount /dev/sdb1 on /media/usb18:47
D_Vitothen put this file:/media/usb on sources.list18:47
buZzD_Vito: yay!18:47
D_Vitothen apt-get update18:47
buZzdevuan does install a whole bunch of (wifi adapter) firmwares, but i guess not that one18:47
D_Vitoafter that, installed the firmware, cinnamon, wicd, build-essential and problem was solved18:48
D_VitoI think the blue internet cable I used is in terrible quality18:52
D_Vitoactually I heard ths blue cables are crap18:52
Centurion_DanD_Vito: what wifi chip?19:04
D_Vitothe wi-fi adapter is alfa awus036nh19:05
fsmithredCenturion_Dan, what are you doing up at this hour???19:06
fsmithredbtw, I'm in the middle of upgrading ceres19:06
Centurion_Danit's 7am19:06
Centurion_Danfsmithred: cool.19:06
Centurion_DanI promised KatolaZ i'd patch dak to fix udeb imports again...19:07
fsmithredI had to use aptitude and take the second option, because of change from libsane1 to libsane19:07
fsmithredcouldn't tell what apt-get would do, because it scrolled off the buffer19:07
Centurion_Dandid debian rename libsane1 package and not set a Replaces: and Provides: ??19:08
fsmithredmaybe19:08
Centurion_Danthat's sloppy of them...19:08
fsmithredwell, the way things work these days compared to a few years ago, I'm not surprised19:09
fsmithredI think I want my lenny back19:09
Centurion_Danfile a bug report with debian...19:09
fsmithredlol19:10
fsmithredI'll be back in a few minutes to report on the upgrade.19:11
Centurion_Danfsmithred: it's libsane in ascii too... did it change from jessie then or before that?19:23
fsmithredI'm not sure when libsane changed19:26
fsmithredeudev upgraded without any issues. got 3.2.7-2 now19:26
fsmithredCenturion_Dan, libsane is in all from jessie to ceres19:28
fsmithredlibsane1 is only in ceres19:28
ExtraCrispyHello.19:28
ExtraCrispyWhat is the difference between Debian with sysvinit and Devuan?19:29
fsmithreddevuan would contain packages that devuan recompiled to not require systemd19:29
fsmithredor to put it another way, you must have systemd installed in debian, even if you don't use it19:30
nemohttps://git.devuan.org/devuan-packages19:30
nemofsmithred: even if "you" don't use it, plenty of other stuff is ☺19:30
fsmithreddo all those non-init functions get used when it's not init?19:31
ExtraCrispyfsmithred: I see.19:32
nemofsmithred: like dbus?19:32
ExtraCrispyI am a ParrrotSec admin and we are thinking of changing to19:32
ExtraCrispyDevuan19:32
fsmithredoh, cool19:33
fsmithredsomeone tried a devuan-parrot already, but I'm sure you guys can do it better19:33
fsmithredI'll find the discussion for you. Might be something useful in there, and I don't remember any details. It was awhile ago.19:34
nemofsmithred: I'm actually quite curious about that if you find out...19:34
nemofsmithred: it's such a big sprawling thing and I have no idea what needs to be run as PID1 and what doesn't19:34
fsmithredabout parrot or dbus?19:34
ExtraCrispyFor sure.We did talk on it a while back again but for some reason we chose to stay on Debian19:34
fsmithredhttps://dev1galaxy.org/viewtopic.php?id=192819:35
fsmithredExtraCrispy, I think I know why you stuck with debian - buster was more ready than beowulf19:36
ExtraCrispyfsmithred: Yeah i guess.19:38
fsmithredI'm reading the discussion now. We played with it last march. It might be possible now (or soon) to migrate from buster to beowulf.19:39
ExtraCrispyfsmithred: I dont understand your shit.19:42
ExtraCrispyRecreate the list?19:42
ExtraCrispyYou mean just install while i have chnaged to devuan for instance?19:43
fsmithredExtraCrispy, you talking about installing from live-CD?19:44
fsmithredI wouldn't try to install and upgrade at the same time19:45
fsmithredactually, you'd likely run out of RAM if you tried a full upgrade when running live.19:45
ExtraCrispyLive?No19:45
fsmithredinstall to hard drive, boot into the installed system, change sources and upgrade19:46
fsmithredno19:46
ExtraCrispyJUst install Parrot in a VM then get the packages,upgrade to devuan and recreate19:46
fsmithredsorry19:46
ExtraCrispyI dont get the recreate thing.19:46
fsmithredbefore upgrade, you need to install sysvinit-core and reboot19:46
ExtraCrispyYeah yeah of course the whol migration19:46
fsmithredwhere are you getting 'recreate'?19:47
ExtraCrispyAnd since it is mate i gotta do the gnome steps as well?19:47
ExtraCrispyfsmithred: Another option would be to get the package list and try to recreate it in devuan.19:47
fsmithredoh19:47
ExtraCrispyYou said it in the discussion you sent19:47
fsmithredyeah, build it up from scratch in devuan instead of changing sources from debian to devuan19:48
fsmithredstart with minimal install and add packages and any custom configs19:48
fsmithredwhich is what I assume official parrot devs would do19:48
fsmithredor do you guys build it with live-build?19:49
ExtraCrispyWell it wont be that difficult to test19:49
ExtraCrispyAt least fir home its gonna be easy19:49
fsmithreddo you include debian-installer?19:49
ExtraCrispyWe need some coding i guess for a few shit19:50
ExtraCrispyYes.19:50
fsmithredd-i might be tricky19:50
fsmithredthere are a few folks who do include it in devuan-based isos, but it doesn't always work19:50
ExtraCrispyWhat do you recommend?19:51
fsmithredI think you have to do it when devuan's d-i is recently upgraded19:51
fsmithredwhich happens to be now19:51
ExtraCrispyWe are using a odified installer19:51
fsmithredwe've been using refractainstaller in the live isos19:51
ExtraCrispyAnd soon our own19:51
ExtraCrispyAh well we could use that yeah19:53
fsmithredit copies the running system to hard drive with rsync and then adds the bootloader19:54
fsmithrednot as versatile as d-i but a lot easier to deal with19:54
ExtraCrispyLets go through the steps once more19:54
fsmithredI'd be interested to see your own installer19:54
fsmithredupgrade steps?19:55
ExtraCrispyFirst i should have a fresh install of Devuan?19:55
ExtraCrispyfsmithred: No the ParrotSec-devuan thing19:55
fsmithredwait, which do you want to do?19:55
fsmithredok19:55
fsmithredto migrate an existing parrot to devuan...19:56
fsmithredinstall parrot the way it is19:56
Centurion_Danfsmithred: ah, it has a provides and replaces, so should have simply upgraded.. maybe aptitude is broken...19:56
ExtraCrispyThen migrate fsmithred ?19:56
fsmithredthen install sysvinit-core and reboot19:56
ExtraCrispyOr first get the packages?19:56
fsmithredif you have gnome-shell or other stuff that dev1fanboy's guide says to remove,19:57
fsmithredthen remove it19:57
fsmithredfirst get what packages?19:57
ExtraCrispyPackages of Parrot19:58
ExtraCrispydpkg --get-selections19:58
fsmithredoh, you want to parrotize a devuan install19:58
fsmithredyeah, you could do dpkg --get-selections in parrot, edit that list to remove whatever would refuse to install in devuan, then do a dpkg --set-selections in a minimal devuan install19:59
fsmithredthat would be difficult19:59
fsmithredeasier is to install parrot, change to sysvinit, change to devuan19:59
ExtraCrispyThat would be time consuming not difficult20:00
ExtraCrispyAfter changing to Devuan the packages that are not in the repos will be removed?20:01
fsmithredyes20:01
fsmithredor you might need to run 'apt autoremove'20:01
fsmithredwe do have mate in devuan, so that might not be too bad20:02
ExtraCrispyWell we will make our own repo with all the shit missing20:02
ExtraCrispyI mean now we have one so...20:03
fsmithredyou have a complete repo to replace using debian in sources.list?20:03
ExtraCrispyWait what?20:03
fsmithredI'm confused about what your repo has20:04
ExtraCrispyA lot of hardened packages from testing20:05
ExtraCrispySome shit we made20:06
ExtraCrispyAnd the pentesting tools20:06
fsmithredah, ok20:06
ExtraCrispySo i do the migration but with beowulg?20:07
fsmithredyeah, change from debian buster to devuan beowulf in sources.list20:09
fsmithredare you looking at the upgrade/migration guides?20:09
ExtraCrispyYeah.20:10
ExtraCrispyWe dont have Debian buster repo20:10
ExtraCrispyBut you know that i guess20:11
fsmithredparrotsec is built on stretch or buster?20:12
ExtraCrispyBuster20:12
fsmithredok, thought so20:12
ExtraCrispyWhat do the packages that are not in your repos need to work good?20:16
fsmithredExtraCrispy, not sure what you're asking?20:22
fsmithredif you have packages that are not in debian repos but are built for buster, they will work in beowulf20:23
fsmithredunless they require systemd20:23
fsmithred99% of the packages in devuan are unchanged from debian20:23
fsmithredExtraCrispy, I need to go, but we should talk some more. I won't be here much for the next few days, but you could post at dev1galaxy.org or send me email at gmail.20:30
fsmithredlet me know how it goes. I might try it again, too.20:30
ExtraCrispySure.Thanks again for helping me out.20:31
fsmithredyw20:31
fsmithredbye20:31
DocScrutinizer05MinceR: any spam?20:37
DocScrutinizer05doesn't seem so, right?20:37
DocScrutinizer05ExtraCrispy: maybe this is useful...20:39
DocScrutinizer05!tell ExtraCrispy about amprolla20:39
DocScrutinizer05sorry, bot is MIA. I'll be back in 10 minutes20:41
MinceRDocScrutinizer05: i didn't really pay attention20:44
ExtraCrispyDocScrutinizer05: Yeah thanks.Not so relevant i think but an awesome tools nevertheless20:45
MinceRlooks like we didn't get any today20:46
filipoohey i upgraded ascii to beowulf and i have no gui just a shell bash and im confused how do i get into gui??20:54
filipoohow can i connect to wireless from the shell??20:55
DocScrutinizer05!tell ExtraCrispy about amprolla21:01
DocScrutinizer05!amprolla21:02
infobotnextime gave an excellent explanation how amprolla works, at https://botbot.me/freenode/devuan/2016-05-07/?msg=65646427&page=4, or https://git.devuan.org/devuan-infrastructure/amprolla, or https://git.devuan.org/devuan-infrastructure/amprolla321:02
DocScrutinizer05botbot.me/ dead for good now?21:10
robert-eDocScrutinizer05:  Looks like.  I wonder if there is some sort of replacement.  I used it daily.  Something to do with the data partestion changes in Europe.21:44
DocScrutinizer05robert-e: my logging misses history (and the over-nifty JS-scrolling)21:45
DocScrutinizer05otherwise see /topic21:45
DocScrutinizer05http://maemo.cloud-7.de/irclogs/freenode/_devuan/21:46
robert-eDocScrutinizer05:thanks .. will have a look.  Otherwise I will have to keep the laptop running 24/7.21:47
DocScrutinizer05eventually I might add history to cloud7 logs21:48
DocScrutinizer05rge problem is my private logs history has administrative lines sprinkled all over it21:49
DocScrutinizer05pretty tough to filter them all out21:49
robert-eYep .. politics generally suck.21:50
DocScrutinizer05hm?21:50
DocScrutinizer05bbl21:51
robert-erefer to the data protection stuff in Europe.  Understand what they are trying to do, but the hammer is kind of big.  later21:51
golinuxrobert-e: This channel has complete logs here: https://5.196.38.19:8888/?tz=-30021:59
golinuxOr better url: https://dev1galaxy.org/znclog/?tz=-30022:03
robert-egplinux:  Thank you.  That link will do just fine.22:39
