2020-06-15T04:03:58 #kisslinux <micro_O> grr glib wont build for me
2020-06-15T04:04:01 #kisslinux <micro_O> and no obvious error
2020-06-15T04:24:37 #kisslinux <micro_O> randomly rebuilding packages got it working again TT
2020-06-15T04:24:40 #kisslinux <micro_O> goodnight all
2020-06-15T04:57:21 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> o/
2020-06-15T10:13:54 #kisslinux <djt3[m]1> dylanaraps: firefox addon notifications are crashing it, is there anything i need to install to fix it or is there a workaround?
2020-06-15T10:45:37 #kisslinux <vaukai> Trying eiwd on Gentoo with ebuild from https://github.com/gentoo/guru/tree/dev/net-wireless/eiwd - works fine. But with rfkill it makes trouble "rfkill id 0 can't be matched to a wiphy" and the service crashes
2020-06-15T10:46:25 #kisslinux <vaukai> Anyone here who could help?
2020-06-15T10:47:39 #kisslinux <vaukai> Issue filed as https://github.com/dylanaraps/eiwd/issues/5
2020-06-15T10:56:48 #kisslinux <mcpcpc[m]> vaukai: not sure. but searched google and there was a similar-ish article pertaining to an iwd and udev race condition: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=242283
2020-06-15T11:00:27 #kisslinux <lhoqvso> Am I the only one having problems downloading from https://ftp.openbsd.org/...?
2020-06-15T11:02:49 #kisslinux <mcpcpc[m]> lhoqvso: appears to be down https://www.isitdownrightnow.com/ftp.openbsd.org.html
2020-06-15T11:03:27 #kisslinux <lhoqvso> Ok; thanks for checking :) it has been down for the last 5-6 hours I think
2020-06-15T11:03:27 #kisslinux <vaukai> I've seen the archlinux article regarding (legacy) iwd.  On Gentoo rfkilling (legacy) iwd works without crashing ...
2020-06-15T11:04:58 #kisslinux <vaukai> My question:  Does eiwd work reliably on kisslinux?   Even with rfkill?
2020-06-15T13:41:36 #kisslinux <illiliti> vaukai: i think you need to modprobe rfkill module
2020-06-15T14:01:28 #kisslinux <vaukai> Just checked again. There is CONFIG_RFKILL=y
2020-06-15T14:01:40 #kisslinux <vaukai>  CONFIG_RFKILL_LEDS=y
2020-06-15T14:01:43 #kisslinux <vaukai>  CONFIG_RFKILL_INPUT=y
2020-06-15T14:02:08 #kisslinux <vaukai> with (legacy) iwd no problem
2020-06-15T14:02:32 #kisslinux <vaukai> with eiwd rfkill crashes the service
2020-06-15T14:05:54 #kisslinux <vaukai> eiwd version 1.6.1
2020-06-15T14:24:16 #kisslinux <illiliti> by crashing you mean segfault ?
2020-06-15T14:59:18 #kisslinux <illiliti> https://github.com/dylanaraps/eiwd/blob/master/src/wiphy.c#L1322 << i believe this ifdef caused rfkill issues
2020-06-15T14:59:27 #kisslinux <illiliti> https://github.com/dylanaraps/eiwd/blob/master/src/wiphy.c#L1356
2020-06-15T15:03:39 #kisslinux <vaukai> illiliti: Does that mean the error also occurs in kisslinux? I was too lazy to try
2020-06-15T15:06:27 #kisslinux <mcpcpc[m]> took a stab at a kernel/firmware wiki article.  someone mind looking to over to make sure it make sense (so far)? https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mcpcpc/wiki/drivers/kernel/firmware.txt
2020-06-15T15:09:13 #kisslinux <dilynm> I think your 'sound' section got swallowed up by the AMD GPU section
2020-06-15T15:09:47 #kisslinux <dilynm> You could also possibly roll CPU microcode loading into the article
2020-06-15T15:09:55 #kisslinux <mcpcpc[m]> lol. yeah.
2020-06-15T15:10:01 #kisslinux <mcpcpc[m]> sure!
2020-06-15T15:10:31 #kisslinux <illiliti> vaukai: i'm pretty sure so
2020-06-15T15:10:37 #kisslinux <nikkk> So it seems libressl ftp Is doewn :0
2020-06-15T15:10:49 #kisslinux <dilynm> The major addition would be identifying the CPU stepping and supplying a link where own can find the microcode, as it isn't distributed with linux-firmware (I don't think)
2020-06-15T15:11:00 #kisslinux <djt3[m]1> hi, is there any fix for notifications crashing firefox in KISS?
2020-06-15T15:11:16 #kisslinux <dilynm> Oh you have a CPU section - maybe you had already thought of this :o
2020-06-15T15:13:20 #kisslinux <vaukai> illiliti:  So the whole ifdef from line 1322 to 1469 need to be reviewed, right?
2020-06-15T15:21:34 #kisslinux <illiliti> vaukai: not only. there are some references to functions in other places.
2020-06-15T15:22:34 #kisslinux <vaukai> :-(  too complicated for me
2020-06-15T15:23:41 #kisslinux <rirc8CD0C> mcpcpc[m]: I think overall this looks pretty good to me. I left some comments
2020-06-15T15:23:43 #kisslinux <rirc8CD0C> https://yopad.eu/p/firmware
2020-06-15T15:23:52 #kisslinux <claudia02> can you open that?
2020-06-15T15:24:17 #kisslinux <vaukai> illiliti: Thanks for your time.  Now I know it's bug in the sources and nothing wrong with my ebuild
2020-06-15T15:24:47 #kisslinux <vaukai> I will then wait for it getting fixed
2020-06-15T15:25:26 #kisslinux <vaukai> bye, going offline
2020-06-15T15:43:54 #kisslinux <mcpcpc[m]> <dilynm "Oh you have a CPU section - mayb"> just added the microcode loading section
2020-06-15T15:44:22 #kisslinux <mcpcpc[m]> <rirc8CD0C "mcpcpc: I think overall this loo"> thnx!  will take a look shortly.
2020-06-15T15:45:09 #kisslinux <mcpcpc[m]> <dilynm "I think your 'sound' section got"> broke out the sound stuff from the gpu section. :P
2020-06-15T15:49:30 #kisslinux <illiliti> mcpcpc: https://github.com/intel/Intel-Linux-Processor-Microcode-Data-Files/issues/16 << this might be helpful for intel microcode article
2020-06-15T15:49:56 #kisslinux <dilynm> Nice!
2020-06-15T15:50:09 #kisslinux <dilynm> AMD makes it so easy. I had to work a lot harder for intel (:
2020-06-15T15:51:02 #kisslinux <illiliti> https://github.com/dracutdevs/dracut/blob/master/dracut-functions.sh#L692
2020-06-15T15:51:23 #kisslinux <illiliti> fully automated way
2020-06-15T15:52:40 #kisslinux <mcpcpc[m]> <illiliti "mcpcpc: https://github.com/intel"> thnx!
2020-06-15T16:12:06 #kisslinux <E5ten> dilynm: do you still use falkon?
2020-06-15T16:12:21 #kisslinux <E5ten> and if so, has the upgrade to qt 5.15 made the pdf viewer stop working for you?
2020-06-15T16:15:01 #kisslinux <dilynm> I never used the pdf viewer :x
2020-06-15T16:19:07 #kisslinux <dilynm> And I would test it but alas I have no qt5 installed
2020-06-15T16:19:20 #kisslinux <E5ten> damn, no worries
2020-06-15T16:19:27 #kisslinux <dilynm> claudia02: does tho
2020-06-15T16:19:58 #kisslinux <E5ten> claudia02: could you check if falkon's PDF viewer still works on qt 5.15, because it doesn't for me anymore
2020-06-15T16:50:44 #kisslinux <claudia02> E5ten: dilynm: I have a qt5 build without any X libraries. The only browser not working is falkon :2020-06-15T16:51:19 #kisslinux <illiliti> mcpcpc: grepping values from /proc/cpuinfo not enough to determine correct microcode. you need to convert those values to hex. i wrote posix script for that - https://termbin.com/88bx
2020-06-15T17:14:55 #kisslinux <mcpcpc[m]> <illiliti "mcpcpc: grepping values from /pr"> got it.  thnx!
2020-06-15T17:18:16 #kisslinux <E5ten> claudia02: not building or not running?
2020-06-15T17:20:54 #kisslinux <E5ten> If not building, have you tried with -DNO_X11=OFF?
2020-06-15T17:31:33 #kisslinux <mcpcpc[m]> illiliti: added your example script to the article :)
2020-06-15T17:48:50 #kisslinux <claudia> E5ten: thanks for the tip! Of course I had not looked into the cmake options (:
2020-06-15T17:50:22 #kisslinux <claudia> Falkon is now up but no pdf. Theres also none listed in the extensions. When I open a pdf it wants to open with xdg-open
2020-06-15T17:50:52 #kisslinux <E5ten> go to preferences->browsing and enable PPAPI and PDF viewer
2020-06-15T17:53:36 #kisslinux <claudia> This opens the pdf now in a chrome extension but the pdf is not displayed.
2020-06-15T17:58:11 #kisslinux <illiliti> dylanaraps: lots of wiki pages are not copy-paste friendly(it's really annoying). like this one https://github.com/kisslinux/wiki/blob/master/boot/efistub.txt#L48-L54
2020-06-15T18:08:52 #kisslinux <E5ten> claudia: that's exactly what happens to me, I guess 5.15 broke it...
2020-06-15T18:17:04 #kisslinux <illiliti> dylanaraps: almost all pages in /software and /wayland has the same problem
2020-06-15T18:18:33 #kisslinux <dilynm> E5ten: maybe one day Falkon devs will commit more than once a month :'(
2020-06-15T18:34:56 #kisslinux <mcpcpc[m]> <illiliti "dylanaraps: lots of wiki pages a"> that’s definitely the one downside with the text block decoration for code snippets.  but from a documentation flow standpoint, i think it makes it visually. easier to follow along...  shrug
2020-06-15T20:01:56 #kisslinux <ectlunya> mcpcpc: an indent accomplishes the same thing much better
2020-06-15T20:02:23 #kisslinux <ectlunya> some of the busybox docs for example: https://busybox.net/kill_it_with_fire.txt
2020-06-15T20:04:51 #kisslinux <ectlunya> There are a lot of things about the wiki formatting thats just unnecessary
2020-06-15T20:05:43 #kisslinux <ectlunya> for example, why do we have to tell people how to install a package or start a service in every software page?
2020-06-15T20:07:24 #kisslinux <ectlunya> Also I just saw that "Begin by first verifying that you have SOFTWARE_NAME installed:" is in the official page template
2020-06-15T20:08:21 #kisslinux <ectlunya> Whats wrong with just saying "Install SOFTWARE_NAME"?
2020-06-15T20:17:01 #kisslinux <mcpcpc[m]> ectlunya: true. there is definitely some unnecessary content lol.  i think it became a “formula” as i was writing many of these... my main goal was get the content out there.  i figured it will get refined over time. Anyone is welcome to help make updates tho and make the articles clearer.
2020-06-15T20:19:32 #kisslinux <mcpcpc[m]> at least we have a starting point tho.    it can only get better. lol
2020-06-15T20:21:36 #kisslinux <mcpcpc[m]> ectlunya: i like the idea of indenting tho.  i do that with my own documentation.
2020-06-15T20:24:58 #kisslinux <ectlunya> So do i
2020-06-15T20:28:54 #kisslinux <mcpcpc[m]> i can probably make a bulk update to all of the pages if dylan agrees to changing the template. and maybe trim some excessive wordiness. ;)
