2019-10-05T00:24:47 #kisslinux <Xyliton> I installed all kinds of stuff for xorg now and I'm hit with a "no screens found" 2019-10-05T01:03:59 #kisslinux <Xyliton> Is it possible to use the propietary Nvidia drivers on KISS? I attempted to use nouveau but they don't support my card (yet) 2019-10-05T01:47:15 #kisslinux <Crestwave> Try downloading from https://www.nvidia.com/Download/index.aspx, maybe? 2019-10-05T01:48:19 #kisslinux <Xyliton> I tried that but it seems like they don't work on musl 2019-10-05T01:55:02 #kisslinux <Crestwave> Looks like there's no good way to use them on musl :/ 2019-10-05T02:08:54 #kisslinux <Xyliton> Guess I'll have to use another distro then unfortunately :/ 2019-10-05T03:19:59 #kisslinux <Renzix> hi 2019-10-05T03:33:13 #kisslinux <eyepatchOwl> hi 2019-10-05T03:34:07 #kisslinux <eyepatchOwl> Xyliton, maybe consider KISS with glibc? It seems unlikely that you'll have success with a different distro which uses musl. 2019-10-05T05:41:19 #kisslinux <konimex> yeah nvidia won't work with musl 2019-10-05T07:14:30 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> paradigm: Nice! 2019-10-05T07:15:48 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> KISS with glibc: https://github.com/fanboimsft/kissD 2019-10-05T07:17:19 #kisslinux <knob> ah! compton 2019-10-05T08:04:39 #kisslinux <Xyliton> dylanaraps: so glibc has to come with systemd? 2019-10-05T08:05:43 #kisslinux <Crestwave> I don't think so 2019-10-05T08:06:08 #kisslinux <Crestwave> That person just wanted to have systemd, pulseaudio, etc., too, and packaged it in his repositoriy with it 2019-10-05T08:06:22 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> ^ 2019-10-05T08:06:59 #kisslinux <Xyliton> Ohh, the way it looked I assumed those were required to be installed 2019-10-05T08:07:20 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> It's just a matter of building a KISS chroot with 'glibc' in place of musl. This requires patches for glibc and possibly the removal of some musl patches. 2019-10-05T08:07:54 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> glibc is huge though. 2019-10-05T08:08:22 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> -> du -sh glibc-2.30.tar.gz 2019-10-05T08:08:24 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> 31.2M glibc-2.30.tar.gz 2019-10-05T08:08:26 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> -> du -sh musl-1.1.23.tar.gz 2019-10-05T08:08:28 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> 992.0K musl-1.1.23.tar.gz 2019-10-05T08:09:04 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Extracted: 2019-10-05T08:09:06 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> -> du -sh glibc-2.30/ 2019-10-05T08:09:08 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> 249.1M glibc-2.30/ 2019-10-05T08:09:10 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> -> du -sh musl-1.1.23/ 2019-10-05T08:09:12 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> 12.1M musl-1.1.23/ 2019-10-05T08:09:33 #kisslinux <Xyliton> Whoa, that's massive 2019-10-05T08:10:25 #kisslinux <Xyliton> Kinda sad that nouveau doesn't support my card yet :/ 2019-10-05T08:11:44 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Yeah 2019-10-05T08:12:46 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> I finally packaged kiss-utils fyi. :) 2019-10-05T08:12:55 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> https://github.com/kisslinux/kiss-utils 2019-10-05T08:13:13 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> This is my favourite: kiss-export: Turn an installed package into a KISS tarball. 2019-10-05T08:13:38 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Takes an installed package and returns it to an installable tarball. 2019-10-05T08:16:30 #kisslinux <Xyliton> And then you could send that tarball to someone else? 2019-10-05T08:17:00 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Yes 2019-10-05T08:17:11 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> So long as you didn't compile with '-march=native'. 2019-10-05T08:17:22 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> You can then do 'kiss i /path/to/tarball'. 2019-10-05T08:17:44 #kisslinux <Xyliton> What would the use case be? Would you do that to provide precompiled packages to people? 2019-10-05T08:18:12 #kisslinux <Xyliton> Or packages they don't have in their repos? 2019-10-05T08:21:04 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> You can transfer built packages between machines (if you no longer have your cache). 2019-10-05T08:21:46 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> KISS already creates tarballs you can transfer to people in `~/.cache/kiss/bin`. 2019-10-05T08:21:56 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> This is useful for when you've cleared this directory. 2019-10-05T08:22:31 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Having installable tarballs allows for a build now install later workflow and also leaves things open for binary repositories in the future. 2019-10-05T08:23:44 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> pfetch is now in community too. 2019-10-05T08:29:49 #kisslinux <Xyliton> Nice! 2019-10-05T08:36:28 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Still waiting on Paypal to resolve my account. Also still waiting on Keybase to reset my account. :| 2019-10-05T08:37:08 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> (I have 99 Keybase invitations if anyone wants one). 2019-10-05T08:37:39 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> brb an hour or so. 2019-10-05T08:37:44 #kisslinux <Xyliton> You have to wait for keybase to reset? I thought that was instant? 2019-10-05T09:43:21 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Xyliton: Keybase disabled account resets through the website and I can't log into the client. 2019-10-05T09:43:32 #kisslinux <Xyliton> Oh 2019-10-05T09:44:17 #kisslinux <Xyliton> Btw do I have to do anything special to get integrated graphics to work? 2019-10-05T09:44:32 #kisslinux <Xyliton> lspci only shows me my GPU 2019-10-05T09:46:44 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Kernel drivers. 2019-10-05T09:46:54 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> You may be missing the needed drivers. 2019-10-05T09:47:12 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Mine (i915) needed firmware too. 2019-10-05T09:53:47 #kisslinux <Xyliton> Do I enable them when compiling the kernel? 2019-10-05T09:54:14 #kisslinux <Xyliton> Tried to build xf86-video-intel but I messed that up slightly 2019-10-05T09:55:17 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> You shouldn't need xf86-video-intel, Xorg's generic modesetting video driver actually works better. 2019-10-05T09:55:25 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> It sounds to me like a kernel driver issue. 2019-10-05T09:55:41 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> ie, run 'make menuconfig' and enable whatever is missing. 2019-10-05T09:58:40 #kisslinux <Xyliton> Hm... I have the "Intel 8xx/9xx/G3x/G4x/HD Graphics option enabled already 2019-10-05T09:59:34 #kisslinux <Xyliton> Do I need anything else? 2019-10-05T10:01:37 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> 2 secs 2019-10-05T10:02:38 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> I'll send you my .config. 2019-10-05T10:04:30 #kisslinux <Xyliton> Should I diff that with my own? 2019-10-05T10:05:21 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> https://gist.githubusercontent.com/dylanaraps/c8b648db4294e287cbd1bb2bb1acd20a/raw/d8972d5f9e2811f5498265edc1650e525d6baa52/gistfile1.txt 2019-10-05T10:05:27 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> You could, yeah. 2019-10-05T10:05:43 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> What intel graphics chip do you have? 2019-10-05T10:06:22 #kisslinux <Xyliton> HD 4600 2019-10-05T10:08:18 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Look here too: https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Intel#Kernel 2019-10-05T10:17:52 #kisslinux <Xyliton> I'll try building the kernel with that stuff added. Thanks! 2019-10-05T10:18:23 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> np 2019-10-05T10:21:27 #kisslinux <Xyliton> Something rather... Weird just happened 2019-10-05T10:21:50 #kisslinux <Xyliton> https://i.imgur.com/p3Xq26g.jpg 2019-10-05T10:22:42 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Interesting 2019-10-05T10:23:50 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Do you have these in your kernel cmdline? 'nomodeset' 'vga='? 2019-10-05T10:23:57 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> (You shouln't have these) 2019-10-05T10:24:58 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> You can try adding 'nomodeset' though. 2019-10-05T10:25:12 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Also try pairing it with: 'i915.modeset=0'. 2019-10-05T10:25:14 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Worth a shot. 2019-10-05T10:25:42 #kisslinux <Xyliton> I can change those in grub, right? 2019-10-05T10:26:00 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Yes, though it'll reset on next boot. 2019-10-05T10:26:06 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Fine enough to test though. 2019-10-05T10:30:07 #kisslinux <Xyliton> Looks like I don't have any of those problematic params. Tried adding that i915 one too but I'm getting the same results https://i.imgur.com/QPM690C.jpg 2019-10-05T10:32:04 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Try linux 5.3.2 or the latest LTS. 2019-10-05T10:32:33 #kisslinux <Xyliton> Okay 2019-10-05T10:54:41 #kisslinux <Xyliton> dylanaraps: that got me a bit further I think? It installed DRI module during `make modules_install` but xorg still refuses to detect a screen 2019-10-05T10:54:57 #kisslinux <Xyliton> The xorg log complains about the "intel" module missing 2019-10-05T10:55:32 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> You need to compile them as built in. 2019-10-05T10:55:40 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> [*] instead of [m]. 2019-10-05T10:57:31 #kisslinux <Xyliton> Ohhh, I thought I had that enabled. Duh. Thanks again! 2019-10-05T11:03:45 #kisslinux <Xyliton> Hmm.... I'm still getting the same error 2019-10-05T11:07:17 #kisslinux <Xyliton> Here's my xorg log https://0x0.st/zwBc.log 2019-10-05T11:11:19 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Do you have eudev? 2019-10-05T11:13:15 #kisslinux <Xyliton> Yes 2019-10-05T11:14:17 #kisslinux <Xyliton> Running "udevadm" errors with a symbolic link loop though 2019-10-05T11:33:53 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> That's probably it. 2019-10-05T11:34:19 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Run 'rm /usr/bin/udevadm' (as root) and 'kiss i eudev' to fix it. 2019-10-05T11:57:19 #kisslinux <Xyliton> That unfortunately didn't change anything regarding xorg 2019-10-05T11:57:52 #kisslinux <Xyliton> lspci doesn't pick it up either. That only lists my GPU, not the integrated graphics 2019-10-05T12:05:14 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Anything in 'dmesg'? 2019-10-05T12:06:26 #kisslinux <Xyliton> What should I look for? There's nothing graphics-specific when grep-ing for Intel and vga 2019-10-05T12:07:31 #kisslinux <Xyliton> For some reason the fbdev module is missing to now 2019-10-05T12:08:40 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> 'i915', 'DRM'/'drm' 2019-10-05T12:10:07 #kisslinux <Xyliton> Nothing for i915 2019-10-05T12:10:37 #kisslinux <Xyliton> DRM gives two "supports DRM functions and may not be fully accessible" 2019-10-05T12:12:34 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Hm, could be a driver missing entirely. 2019-10-05T12:17:33 #kisslinux <Xyliton> oof 2019-10-05T12:19:18 #kisslinux <Xyliton> Is that something a noob (me) can fix? 2019-10-05T12:52:45 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> I meant a driver missing from your .config (not from the kernel itself) :) 2019-10-05T13:26:47 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> https://github.com/vhakulinen/gnvim 2019-10-05T13:26:50 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> GNvim - Rich Neovim GUI without any web bloat 2019-10-05T13:27:08 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> > Requires webkitGtk2 2019-10-05T13:27:14 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> webkit2gtk* 2019-10-05T14:32:06 #kisslinux <kissuser> I've a question regarding configure options 2019-10-05T14:32:32 #kisslinux <kissuser> What's the most common behavior in software? 2019-10-05T14:33:24 #kisslinux <kissuser> If we set only the minimum (for exampla --prefix e.t.c) do we have now the minimum set or the defaults the project thinks most people will have? 2019-10-05T14:35:59 #kisslinux <kissuser> s/will/want_to 2019-10-05T14:37:03 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> It depends on the software. 2019-10-05T14:37:14 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Best case '--prefix=/usr' is all that is needed. 2019-10-05T14:37:29 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> xprop requires these for example: 2019-10-05T14:37:31 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> --prefix=/usr 2019-10-05T14:37:33 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> --mandir=/usr/share/man 2019-10-05T14:37:35 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> --localstatedir=/var 2019-10-05T14:37:48 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Still good as these only control system path locations. 2019-10-05T14:38:17 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> It depends on what you're packaging really. 2019-10-05T14:40:19 #kisslinux <kissuser> I already suppose that it depends on software. But you are very experienced and you compiled i think tons of software so my question is: what's the most frequent / common behavior you had? 2019-10-05T14:42:59 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> 83 --prefix=/usr 2019-10-05T14:43:01 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> 17 --sysconfdir=/etc 2019-10-05T14:43:03 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> 13 --mandir=/usr/share/man 2019-10-05T14:43:05 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> 11 --disable-nls 2019-10-05T14:43:07 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> 6 --localstatedir=/var 2019-10-05T14:43:09 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> 5 --sbindir=/usr/bin 2019-10-05T14:43:11 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> 5 --enable-shared 2019-10-05T14:43:13 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> 3 --disable-werror 2019-10-05T14:43:15 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> 3 --disable-static 2019-10-05T14:43:17 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> 2 --without-python 2019-10-05T14:43:19 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> 2 --without-libidn 2019-10-05T14:43:21 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> 2 --without-debug 2019-10-05T14:43:23 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> This is for the 150~ packages in the core repositories. 2019-10-05T14:43:25 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Configure flags by number of times used. 2019-10-05T14:44:12 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> (This only covers packages using autotools) 2019-10-05T14:47:30 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> So a good base is '--prefix=/usr'. 2019-10-05T14:48:04 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> You can then check the built tarball (stored in ~/.cache/kiss/bin) to see if the '/etc', 'man', 'var' 'bin' paths are correctly used. 2019-10-05T14:48:05 #kisslinux <kissuser> I'm more interested in flags regarding the functionality of thr program itselt, for example "--with-gpm-mouse" or "--with-screen=[LIB]" or flags regarding ncurses 2019-10-05T14:48:14 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> I see. 2019-10-05T14:48:39 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> It's better to leave them blank as 'configure' will add them if they're available and disable them if they're not. 2019-10-05T14:49:07 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> If something offers a '--with-x'/'--without-x' flag (vim for example), it's better to always have '--without-x' by default. 2019-10-05T14:49:34 #kisslinux <kissuser> So i want to know, if we say nearly "nothing" to ./configure do we get a "slim" configuration or the "maximum" or the "most useful" ... 2019-10-05T14:49:39 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> I'm actually going through and removing '--disable-nls' to make it easier for people to use 'gettext' if they want it. 2019-10-05T14:50:09 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> You get the defaults which is a mix of auto detected dependencies, mandatory dependencies (may have --disable- option) and default paths/options. 2019-10-05T14:50:42 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> We tend to stick with the defaults unless there's a reason for changing something. 2019-10-05T14:53:39 #kisslinux <kissuser> So i seems the KISS principle we meet also here: Use as few "flags" as possible? 2019-10-05T14:54:33 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> It really depends. 2019-10-05T14:54:52 #kisslinux <kissuser> OK. 2019-10-05T14:54:59 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> The only set in stone rule are setting '--prefix', '--mandir' etc _if needed_. 2019-10-05T14:55:04 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> rules* 2019-10-05T14:55:18 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> It's all on a case-by-case basis. 2019-10-05T14:55:46 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> A package may need *more* flags so the resulting program is simpler for example. 2019-10-05T14:57:49 #kisslinux <kissuser> Yes. I see. In the case of "mc" i got even more depends without the "--disable-nls" you proposed above... 2019-10-05T15:00:07 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Instead of '--disable-nls' I'm going to prefer '--enable-nls=auto' if it isn't already the default. 2019-10-05T15:00:29 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> I'd like to make it as easy as possible for someone to package/install/use 'gettext'/'intltool'. 2019-10-05T15:08:55 #kisslinux <kissuser> The "flags" i see with ./configure --help are they always the same (for the same version) or do they depend on the "system configuration" 2019-10-05T15:09:40 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Always the same. 2019-10-05T15:13:47 #kisslinux <kissuser> ... except the configure script was autogenerated :-( I just now wondered, why i couldnt find the --disable-nls ... 2019-10-05T15:15:06 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> It doesn't always list all options either. 2019-10-05T15:15:17 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Honestly, it's a headache inducing process. 2019-10-05T15:19:49 #kisslinux <kissuser> OK. Thanks for you infinite patience :-) 2019-10-05T16:03:35 #kisslinux <mahmudov> is there any supported link to read why dbus is not in official repo? 2019-10-05T16:03:54 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Something official by myself you mean? 2019-10-05T16:04:40 #kisslinux <mahmudov> yes, why are you think it is obsolete or ? 2019-10-05T16:05:16 #kisslinux <mahmudov> just curious to see why it is not need in a distro 2019-10-05T16:07:03 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> It's insecure, poorly documented, broken in its implementation and just overall unneeded. 2019-10-05T16:07:38 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Methods for IPC have existed long before dbus and they don't require a userspace daemon or badly documented OOP XML interface. 2019-10-05T16:08:55 #kisslinux <Xyliton> Not trying to argue in favour of dbus, but don't you lose support for a lot of software when not using it? 2019-10-05T16:09:36 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Software which only implements a single method of IPC, yes. 2019-10-05T16:09:47 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Though nothing stops you from packaging and running dbus on KISS. 2019-10-05T16:09:49 #kisslinux <mahmudov> glib can compile without dbus? 2019-10-05T16:09:55 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> It's just not included in the official repositories. 2019-10-05T16:09:58 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Yes, it can. 2019-10-05T16:10:47 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Majority of programs with a mandatory dependency on dbus are broken. 2019-10-05T16:11:08 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> There are exceptions but there's nothing stopping it from being optional. 2019-10-05T16:11:47 #kisslinux <mahmudov> i am trying to realize distro can live without it 2019-10-05T16:12:06 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> > It's just not included in the official repositories. 2019-10-05T16:12:07 #kisslinux <mahmudov> a distro* 2019-10-05T16:12:14 #kisslinux <Xyliton> Does kiss even use glib?

I'm not going to move to another platform regardless of who owns GitHub if the majority aren't there.

So what can we do if we loose the dbus battle on firefox? 2019-10-05T17:21:24 #kisslinux <eyepatchOwl> I haven't found a simple browser which is safe for the web yet. Of the terminal alternatives, w3m seems best. Of the GUI alternatives, WebKitGTK seems to be the smallest, but that one is still very large. 2019-10-05T17:22:34 #kisslinux <kissuser> i think the gtk things getting also entangled with dbus... 2019-10-05T17:23:23 #kisslinux <mahmudov> what about next browser, anybody used it? 2019-10-05T17:23:49 #kisslinux <eyepatchOwl> I don't expect a simple method to support JavaScript, but it would be nice to de-couple JavaScript from the rendering engine even if impractical given the impact JavaScript has on the DOM. 2019-10-05T17:24:04 #kisslinux <eyepatchOwl> nEXT is just QtWebKit. 2019-10-05T17:24:14 #kisslinux <Xyliton> Someone could always fork Firefox and rip out dbus ¯_(ツ)_/¯ 2019-10-05T17:24:19 #kisslinux <mahmudov> ah, 2019-10-05T17:24:46 #kisslinux <eyepatchOwl> surf is the suckless wrapper around WebKitGTK which seems like the next increment over w3m. 2019-10-05T17:25:06 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Xyliton: My patch with `--disable-dbus` does this. 2019-10-05T17:25:11 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> KISS' Firefox is dbus free. 2019-10-05T17:25:56 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> If Firefox breaks removing dbus, I'll just patch it again. 2019-10-05T17:26:11 #kisslinux <kissuser> But it will be getting harder and harder to keep it dbus free i'm afraid 2019-10-05T17:26:30 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Absolute worse case we swap to the latest ESR which gives me a year give or take to figure it out. 2019-10-05T17:26:56 #kisslinux <kissuser> OK.

You can also compile the driver directly into the kernel. 2019-10-05T21:55:34 #kisslinux <randalltux> I'm already compile my wlan driver, but it wont start automaticaly at boot. 2019-10-05T21:56:03 #kisslinux <randalltux> So, i have to add 'modprobe iwlwifi' at the end of '/etc/inittab' ? 2019-10-05T21:56:10 #kisslinux <randalltux> Sorry for my bad english 2019-10-05T21:56:13 #kisslinux * randalltux cry 2019-10-05T22:00:15 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> ::once:/path/to/script.sh 2019-10-05T22:00:42 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Create a script, add two lines '#!/bin/sh' and 'modeprobe iwlwifi'. 2019-10-05T22:01:05 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Put the '::once:/path/to/script.sh' line in your '/etc/inittab'. 2019-10-05T22:01:24 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Change the path so it points to the script and make sure it is executable. 2019-10-05T22:43:23 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Firefox 70 beta works fine.
