2020-11-17T06:14:02 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Terminals 2020-11-17T06:14:16 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> And how they all kinda suck 2020-11-17T06:14:39 #kisslinux <dilyn> seeing foot's development i think it might just be due to the open-endedness of the standard 2020-11-17T06:14:53 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> All I really care about is Ctrl+shift+[cv] and good performance 2020-11-17T06:15:01 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> I don't use fancy features (or scrollback) 2020-11-17T06:15:07 #kisslinux <midfavila> yeah, I'd have to agree that there aren't any really *great* terminals out there 2020-11-17T06:15:13 #kisslinux <dilyn> i live for scrollback 2020-11-17T06:15:29 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> I just pipe to less if it doesn't fit on the screen 2020-11-17T06:15:31 #kisslinux <dilyn> but scrollback is the only feature I need :X 2020-11-17T06:15:36 #kisslinux <midfavila> urxvt is okay I guess, since it has a decent featureset and is highly configurable while remaining relatively lightweight 2020-11-17T06:15:56 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> urxvt needs perl for ctrl+shift+[cv] no? 2020-11-17T06:15:58 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> :( 2020-11-17T06:16:08 #kisslinux <midfavila> that's the one thing it doesn't have afaik 2020-11-17T06:16:09 #kisslinux <dilyn> never understood why urxvt was so popular 2020-11-17T06:16:12 #kisslinux <midfavila> which irks me 2020-11-17T06:16:14 #kisslinux <dilyn> it's never played nice for me 2020-11-17T06:16:23 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> I used it for a time 2020-11-17T06:16:38 #kisslinux <midfavila> even if you disable the stupid keyboard symbol input mode and all that crap, you still can't paste with the standard ctrl-shift-v 2020-11-17T06:16:45 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> nope 2020-11-17T06:16:48 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> need a perl thing for it 2020-11-17T06:16:52 #kisslinux <midfavila> I just use a clipboard manager and shift+insert 2020-11-17T06:16:57 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> distros typically pcackage it with urxvt-perls 2020-11-17T06:17:07 #kisslinux <midfavila> yeah, but then you have to deal with the trashfire that is perl 2020-11-17T06:17:11 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> :) 2020-11-17T06:17:29 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Firefox is the only thing we have which requires perl (official repos) 2020-11-17T06:17:37 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> And it's just a compile time dependency! 2020-11-17T06:17:40 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Boy that was painful 2020-11-17T06:17:45 #kisslinux <midfavila> I'd imagine 2020-11-17T06:18:05 #kisslinux <midfavila> I need it for my kernel since it's incompatible with the perl-removal patch but outside of that I don't think anything needs it 2020-11-17T06:18:17 #kisslinux <midfavila> never mind, apparently pidgin uses perl 2020-11-17T06:18:22 #kisslinux <midfavila> time to see if that can be disabled 2020-11-17T06:18:50 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> I'm almost at a no-libressl setup 2020-11-17T06:18:59 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Which is very cool 2020-11-17T06:19:02 #kisslinux <dilyn> sometimes devs use perl for weird cases 2020-11-17T06:19:12 #kisslinux <midfavila> I mean, sometimes devs use Lisp for weird cases too 2020-11-17T06:19:15 #kisslinux <midfavila> but it's still weird 2020-11-17T06:19:21 #kisslinux <midfavila> (at least Lisp is cool though) 2020-11-17T06:19:24 #kisslinux <dilyn> blis uses perl for exactly two test-cases at configure time for OSX, but configure fails even if you're using linux lmao 2020-11-17T06:19:26 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> webkitgtk have ruby scripts as part of their build system 2020-11-17T06:19:50 #kisslinux <dilyn> how are you evading libressl??

Yeah, I'll check that out. 2020-11-17T07:14:46 #kisslinux <midfavila> Worst comes to pass I'll just mess around with CRUX's GCC package and get that working 2020-11-17T07:17:46 #kisslinux <midfavila> looks like one of the first commits to repo was GCC 8.3 2020-11-17T07:17:51 #kisslinux <midfavila> I'll try and use that. 2020-11-17T07:18:07 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Nice 2020-11-17T07:18:19 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Maybe diff the build file with the current one to see if any flags were changed, etc. 2020-11-17T07:18:24 #kisslinux <midfavila> packaging UXP stuff is such a pain 2020-11-17T07:18:29 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> oof 2020-11-17T07:18:32 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> I can imagine 2020-11-17T07:18:38 #kisslinux <midfavila> honestly GCC is the biggest hurdle 2020-11-17T07:18:59 #kisslinux <midfavila> since it's not as simple as a) changing the version number in the package or b) dumping LFS' instructions into a build file 2020-11-17T07:19:06 #kisslinux <midfavila> so I have to actually think for five minutes :v 2020-11-17T07:19:53 #kisslinux <midfavila> honestly I'm not even a huge fan of UXP browsers... I find their JS engines are crap 2020-11-17T07:20:10 #kisslinux <midfavila> and of course because everything is 99.9% JS now, that's a recipe for "uggggggh" 2020-11-17T07:32:29 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Yup 2020-11-17T07:34:20 #kisslinux <midfavila> I think I would have preferred something like Lua be used for web development instead. But I also don't know if there's anything particularly special about JS compared to other languages. 2020-11-17T07:34:32 #kisslinux <midfavila> I'm admittedly a total brainlet when it comes to my knowledge of programming right now 2020-11-17T07:59:07 #kisslinux <midfavila> Aah, man... this can wait for tomorrow 2020-11-17T07:59:13 #kisslinux <midfavila> it's like 4AM 2020-11-17T08:10:48 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> :P 2020-11-17T08:10:50 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Been there 2020-11-17T08:11:29 #kisslinux <midfavila> worst part is that I have classes and stuff to do out and about tomorrow 2020-11-17T08:11:41 #kisslinux <midfavila> and I already cut class today to fuck around with KISS, pfff 2020-11-17T08:11:45 #kisslinux <midfavila> I blame you :p 2020-11-17T08:16:55 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> hehe 2020-11-17T08:16:57 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> brb 2020-11-17T08:17:23 #kisslinux <midfavila> no worries 2020-11-17T08:17:46 #kisslinux <midfavila> but yeah, tbh screwing around with KISS has probably taught me more actually-useful stuff than college has, so far 2020-11-17T08:18:11 #kisslinux <midfavila> (then again it's also mostly microshit at the college...) 2020-11-17T08:24:40 #kisslinux <midfavila> wb 2020-11-17T08:24:56 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> o/ 2020-11-17T08:24:59 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Back on Xorg 2020-11-17T08:25:08 #kisslinux <midfavila> real GUI hours 2020-11-17T08:26:29 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Also... firefox 83 is done 2020-11-17T08:26:42 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> And the ESR 2020-11-17T08:26:48 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Minimal pain this month 2020-11-17T08:26:58 #kisslinux <midfavila> That's always good. 2020-11-17T08:28:48 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Firefox 83 has a https only mode 2020-11-17T08:29:04 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Also options to use system locale for currency, dates, etc 2020-11-17T08:29:13 #kisslinux <midfavila> took them long enough for https-only support 2020-11-17T08:29:33 #kisslinux <midfavila> then again everyone enforces https nowadays anyways 2020-11-17T08:29:40 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Also global default zoom (though may have been in earlier versions) 2020-11-17T08:30:18 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Also "proper" keyboard controls for media playback 2020-11-17T08:30:46 #kisslinux <midfavila> Blech. 2020-11-17T08:31:09 #kisslinux <midfavila> I wish browsers would just open content in a proper local program instead of doing everything themselves 2020-11-17T08:32:41 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Yup 2020-11-17T08:34:04 #kisslinux <midfavila> i've been trying to cut down on my usage of the Web as much as possible. it's so ineffecient 2020-11-17T08:34:23 #kisslinux <midfavila> I mean, look at gmail. that's like a gig right there to a single tab 2020-11-17T08:34:40 #kisslinux <midfavila> all to basically just dump plaintext and the occasional image in front of you 2020-11-17T08:40:04 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Yeah 2020-11-17T08:40:09 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Things will change though 2020-11-17T08:40:16 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Also... I now need a terminal emulator 2020-11-17T08:40:33 #kisslinux <midfavila> man, I friggin' hope things change. sooner rather than later 2020-11-17T08:41:02 #kisslinux <midfavila> and on the topic of terminals... since you seem to know a fair bit about programming, how complicated would you say it would be to write one? 2020-11-17T08:41:16 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Depends on your goals 2020-11-17T08:41:22 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> What features you'd like to implement 2020-11-17T08:41:23 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> etc 2020-11-17T08:41:42 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> What GUI toolkit you use (if you use one) 2020-11-17T08:41:53 #kisslinux <midfavila> Well, my primary goal right now is to learn how to do things beyond basic maths and stuff in programs 2020-11-17T08:42:11 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> What I do is look for problems I have and write software to fix them 2020-11-17T08:42:12 #kisslinux <midfavila> Actually useful stuff, I suppose. 2020-11-17T08:42:23 #kisslinux <midfavila> And yeah, that's what I try to do 2020-11-17T08:42:26 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Reward at the end is that your problem is solved 2020-11-17T08:42:36 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Your motivation comes from solving your problem 2020-11-17T08:42:46 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Works for me at least 2020-11-17T08:42:51 #kisslinux <midfavila> *nod* 2020-11-17T08:42:59 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> And the entire thing is a learning experience 2020-11-17T08:43:09 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> ie, even if you don't succeed you aren't back at 0 2020-11-17T08:43:28 #kisslinux <midfavila> Yeah, for sure. 2020-11-17T08:43:44 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Also keep in mind that this is all an iterative process 2020-11-17T08:45:07 #kisslinux * midfavila_ nods 2020-11-17T08:45:19 #kisslinux <midfavila_> also excuse the sudden duplicate 2020-11-17T08:45:31 #kisslinux <midfavila_> this is from my phone, pff 2020-11-17T08:45:46 #kisslinux <midfavila_> making eggs and bacon at 5AM because I've lost control of my life 2020-11-17T08:46:36 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> lol 2020-11-17T08:47:04 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> I'm into the habit of going to sleep at 6pm and waking up around 4-5am 2020-11-17T08:47:13 #kisslinux <midfavila_> I'm the opposite 2020-11-17T08:47:23 #kisslinux <midfavila_> I went to bed at 9AM yesterday and woke up at 5PM 2020-11-17T08:48:28 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Been a while since I've done that 2020-11-17T08:48:36 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> brb 2 secs 2020-11-17T08:50:05 #kisslinux <midfavila_> wb again 2020-11-17T08:50:25 #kisslinux <midfavila_> I want to get around to looking at the Lua stuff the Damn Small Linux team wrote 2020-11-17T08:50:34 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> lua is cool 2020-11-17T08:50:37 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> luajit is neat too 2020-11-17T08:50:39 #kisslinux <midfavila_> and maybe start writing my own small applications like a calculator and stuff 2020-11-17T08:50:44 #kisslinux <midfavila_> and yeah,luajit is super nifty 2020-11-17T08:51:11 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> I have better performance in Firefox under x11 but worse performance in the terminal (foot vs st) 2020-11-17T08:51:13 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Grr 2020-11-17T08:51:25 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Funny enough, I care more about the latter 2020-11-17T08:51:38 #kisslinux <midfavila_> I'm thinking of settling on Lua as a first language because of how you can write in-line C (if I remember correctly... or maybe it was C++). 2020-11-17T08:51:39 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Specifically scrolling performance in st 2020-11-17T08:51:41 #kisslinux <midfavila_> and what's foot, again?

Is there anyone who can help me out? 2020-11-17T12:32:43 #kisslinux <testuser[m]> Do you mean loading kernel modules ? You just add `::once:/bin/modprobe <module_name>` to that file 2020-11-17T12:47:26 #kisslinux <tink_> I mean the options that you mark as M in 'make menuconfig' 2020-11-17T12:49:22 #kisslinux <tink_> I asked someone in #gentoo about it and they said (e)udev should handle the modules automatically and I don't need to put anything into /etc/inittab 2020-11-17T12:50:55 #kisslinux <mcpcpc[m]> tink_: read section 8 of the kiss install https://k1ss.org/install#8.0 2020-11-17T12:52:20 #kisslinux <mcpcpc[m]> mark as =y. or do what testuser. indicated. 2020-11-17T12:52:42 #kisslinux <tink_> I read it many times over the course of the last three days. I just read it again. It doesn't say anything about eudev handling the modules 2020-11-17T12:54:00 #kisslinux <tink_> I think I all required file-system, disk-controller, and USB drivers are built with =y. I am concerned about other modules that might not be as important/urgent as these. 2020-11-17T12:55:29 #kisslinux <tink_> I can do what testuser said but I don't know what options are marked as 'M'. Is there any way I can generate a list of them so that I can add them all to /etc/inittab? 2020-11-17T12:58:10 #kisslinux <testuser[m]> Do you have a lot of modules that need to be loaded ? 2020-11-17T12:58:34 #kisslinux <soliwilos> I have never needed to put kernel modules in /etc/inittab, didn't really know that was something people did either. 2020-11-17T12:59:49 #kisslinux <tink_> @soliwilos: Did they just work? 2020-11-17T13:00:03 #kisslinux <tink_> I mean do they? 2020-11-17T13:00:18 #kisslinux <soliwilos> tink_: Yes. 2020-11-17T13:00:21 #kisslinux <tink_> @testuser[m]: I am not sure. I'll find out how many I need as well. 2020-11-17T13:01:17 #kisslinux <tink_> I don't really want to load any of them as modules but I am guessing for certain options you have to mark them as modules as in Gentoo guides some of them are built-in and some are modules. 2020-11-17T13:01:36 #kisslinux <soliwilos> Depends of course on your setup, such as which device manager and it's configuration. 2020-11-17T13:05:33 #kisslinux <tink_> I just ran 'cat .config | grep =m 2020-11-17T13:07:55 #kisslinux <tink_> This is the output: https://dpaste.com/4GUZLWDKW 2020-11-17T13:08:12 #kisslinux <tink_> If you think I can make any of them built-in, please let me know, I'd love to do that. 2020-11-17T14:19:49 #kisslinux <tink> In .config I set CONFIG_EXTRA_FIRMWARE_DIR="/lib/firmware" but it says 'Copy the required drivers to '/usr/lib/firmware'.' on file:///home/tink/Desktop/websites/KISS%20-%20install.html#8.3 2020-11-17T14:20:25 #kisslinux <tink> I meant k1ss.org/install#8.3. 2020-11-17T14:20:46 #kisslinux <tink> Would it be a problem if I used /lib/firmware instead of /usr/lib/firmware? 2020-11-17T14:24:06 #kisslinux <testuser[m]> No since /lib is a symlink to /usr/lib anyways 2020-11-17T14:26:30 #kisslinux <tink> Oh, is it? Thank you. 2020-11-17T14:41:12 #kisslinux <tink> Strange, I had previously done a kisslinux installation. Now did everything just the same, following the guide (k1ss.org/Install) to a T, but this was much cleaner. 2020-11-17T14:41:28 #kisslinux <tink> Then I ran 'make INSTALL_MOD_STRIP=1 modules_install' 2020-11-17T14:42:13 #kisslinux <raph_ael> philosophical question, are source based distro ecofriendly ? 2020-11-17T14:42:14 #kisslinux <tink> Boom.
