[2022-07-10T01:44:45Z] <rohan> yo [2022-07-10T01:46:50Z] <rohan> someone was able to remove tearing in openbsd? [2022-07-10T02:19:50Z] <bnst> test [2022-07-10T02:22:50Z] <bnst> i [2022-07-10T02:24:22Z] <bnst> i have a noob question regarding installng glasnost linux on a rpi4. I know that cross-building is a thing, however is there a way to install kiss linux on the SD card from a different computer then plugging it into the rpi4? i figured this might be the best way to go since rpi provides pre-compiled kernels iirc. [2022-07-10T02:26:30Z] <ioraff> I'm not certain on this, but I think you could just mount the SD card and then set KISS_ROOT to that mountpoint. [2022-07-10T02:33:04Z] <bnst> hmm that makes sense. i'll look into that [2022-07-10T02:34:46Z] <ioraff> is there a reason you don't want to do it how glasnost advises? that being serving them with httpd and installing them directly from the rpi? [2022-07-10T02:40:23Z] <bnst> haha like i said, im a noob at this stuff outside of installing gentoo once. i was having a hard time finding an easy live USB of another linux distro but that's just me being dumb haha. that being said i'll most likely go with the httpd method [2022-07-10T05:00:27Z] <testuser[m]> Hi [2022-07-10T05:12:40Z] <noocsharp> hi [2022-07-10T15:39:07Z] <phoebos> https://github.com/kisslinux/kiss/pull/301 [2022-07-10T15:55:59Z] <illiliti> that's bad idea. we should either fully rewrite kiss in c or not at all. mixing stuff hurts portability [2022-07-10T16:44:51Z] <ioraff> libressl patch for node seems to work. at least for building chromium and qt5-webengine. [2022-07-10T16:48:03Z] <phoebos> illiliti: mixing stuff was dylan's plan [2022-07-10T16:49:47Z] <phoebos> could leave the shell bits in so that the single kiss shell script works [2022-07-10T16:49:57Z] <phoebos> but with an environment variable to switch [2022-07-10T16:50:50Z] <testuser[m]> Isn't it just redundant then if both the pieces of code have to be maintained [2022-07-10T16:52:26Z] <phoebos> not necessarily [2022-07-10T16:52:31Z] <phoebos> like with ls truncating usernames [2022-07-10T16:52:50Z] <phoebos> also it's possibly faster [2022-07-10T16:53:34Z] <phoebos> well definitely faster. i was thinking about the overhead of fork and exec'ing, but the shell versions do that with ls anyway
