[2022-07-24T08:52:33Z] <testuser[m]12> Hi
[2022-07-24T08:53:11Z] <testuser[m]12> Is it possible to scroll down by 1 line instead of jumping to next hyperlink in any of the tui browsers
[2022-07-24T10:01:31Z] <testuser[m]12> phoebos @phoebos:matrix.org: 
[2022-07-24T10:13:11Z] <phoebos> p/l in links
[2022-07-24T11:04:48Z] <testuser[m]12> Ok
[2022-07-24T11:04:57Z] <testuser[m]12> Any idea how to fix this highlight color in elinks
[2022-07-24T11:05:03Z] * testuser[m]12 uploaded an image: (220KiB) < https://libera.ems.host/_matrix/media/r0/download/matrix.pratham.cc/aIgeulWynjYNdExuafYIEMRK/Screenshot_20220724-163434_Termux.png >
[2022-07-24T11:14:40Z] <testuser[m]12> Also links vs lynx vs elinks vs felinks
[2022-07-24T12:10:14Z] <wael_> any X11-nvidia users here? currently running into a problem with Xorg not being able to display anything.
[2022-07-24T12:15:28Z] <testuser[m]12> Elaborate
[2022-07-24T12:17:34Z] <wael_> i'm not sure how more can i elaborate, Xorg just simply gives a black screen, i had set the nvidia drivers to be used in xorg.conf.
[2022-07-24T12:17:57Z] <wael_> i am unable to switch any TTYs in that black screen state, i am forced to reset my computer.
[2022-07-24T12:18:17Z] <testuser[m]12> Have u set up ssh
[2022-07-24T12:18:23Z] <testuser[m]12> u can ssh from your phone and kill X
[2022-07-24T12:18:37Z] <wael_> i have done that, killing X doesn't do much.
[2022-07-24T12:18:54Z] <testuser[m]12> so u have the Xorg.log and dmesg?
[2022-07-24T12:19:01Z] <wael_> dmesg no. xorg.log yes
[2022-07-24T12:19:19Z] <testuser[m]12> Upload to termbin.com
[2022-07-24T12:19:31Z] <wael_> i already have it uploaded to github gist, is that fine?
[2022-07-24T12:20:14Z] <testuser[m]12> Yeah
[2022-07-24T12:20:56Z] <wael_> https://gist.github.com/wael444/6da9ad02eb2f3d34dfac1e03ed4a02c3
[2022-07-24T12:42:44Z] <testuser[m]12> That's your  kernel co nfig wael_ 
[2022-07-24T12:42:59Z] <wael_> scroll down
[2022-07-24T12:45:16Z] <testuser[m]12> Install a font
[2022-07-24T12:45:32Z] <wael_> i have installed fonts in .local/share/fonts
[2022-07-24T12:46:02Z] <wael_> its not executing anything at all, just simply launching xorg with no applicatons.
[2022-07-24T12:46:19Z] <testuser[m]12> Wdym
[2022-07-24T12:46:22Z] <wael_> it quits and all i get in return is a black screen and no access to TTY. something might be wrong with the nvidia drivers of some sort
[2022-07-24T12:46:46Z] <wael_> i am using sx, the sxrc is completely empty.
[2022-07-24T12:47:04Z] <testuser[m]12> no window manager?
[2022-07-24T12:47:16Z] <wael_> i have one but i am not setting Xorg to use it
[2022-07-24T12:47:49Z] <wael_> it was set before but i removed it for testing, as it had given the same result - a black screen.
[2022-07-24T12:48:01Z] <testuser[m]12> still try kiss b ttf-croscore
[2022-07-24T12:48:12Z] <wael_> alright brb
[2022-07-24T12:48:14Z] <testuser[m]12> And you're in the video and input groups right?
[2022-07-24T12:48:17Z] <wael_> yes i am 
[2022-07-24T12:48:20Z] <wael_> in tty group as well
[2022-07-24T12:49:31Z] <testuser[m]12> Also try running nvidia-xconfig as root once
[2022-07-24T12:52:33Z] <wael_> still a black screen unfortunately
[2022-07-24T12:52:35Z] <testuser[m]12> Also try running nvidia-xconfig as root once
[2022-07-24T12:52:52Z] <wael_> alright
[2022-07-24T12:55:17Z] <wael_> same thing sadly
[2022-07-24T12:55:21Z] <testuser[m]12> Been a long time since i used X but could you just try to install xinit once and do startx /usr/bin/windowmanager?
[2022-07-24T12:55:36Z] <testuser[m]12> I know 2-3 people who use xorg with gkiss nvidia
[2022-07-24T12:55:38Z] <testuser[m]12> Hmm
[2022-07-24T12:55:44Z] <wael_> i use sx, not startx or xinit
[2022-07-24T12:55:49Z] <wael_> but theoretically it should still be the same thing..
[2022-07-24T12:55:59Z] <testuser[m]12> Yeah i mean to say just try with startx instead of sx
[2022-07-24T12:56:08Z] <testuser[m]12> though it probably wint help
[2022-07-24T12:56:14Z] <testuser[m]12> also can u get a dmesy
[2022-07-24T12:56:17Z] <testuser[m]12> dmesg and the new log
[2022-07-24T12:56:23Z] <wael_> i will try right now
[2022-07-24T13:01:36Z] <wael_> https://termbin.com/uq4q
[2022-07-24T13:01:43Z] <wael_> this contains both dmesg and xorg logs
[2022-07-24T13:02:28Z] <testuser[m]12> mdevd is running? 
[2022-07-24T13:02:58Z] <wael_> mdev is running but not mdevd
[2022-07-24T13:03:06Z] <wael_> i tried with mdevd but it didn't help
[2022-07-24T13:05:13Z] <testuser[m]12> i mean u enabled the mdev service right
[2022-07-24T13:05:20Z] <testuser[m]12> [    57.841]    (Run 'mkfontdir' on "/usr/share/fonts").,  Try this too
[2022-07-24T13:05:44Z] <testuser[m]12> Also can u get the dmesg after xorg exits?
[2022-07-24T13:06:19Z] <wael[m]> xorg does exit already, so I don't know how I can get dmesg after it exits
[2022-07-24T13:06:30Z] <wael[m]> testuser[m]12: well yes I have 
[2022-07-24T13:07:13Z] <testuser[m]12> wael[m]: the dmesg only seems to have lines upto the nvidia driver being loaded so ig you took the dmesg before launching xorg
[2022-07-24T13:07:25Z] <testuser[m]12> Also this time did you do startx /usr/bin/wm or sx
[2022-07-24T13:08:12Z] <wael[m]> testuser[m]12: sx, I will try xinit now
[2022-07-24T13:08:59Z] <testuser[m]12> Also how exactly ate you loading the nvidia module
[2022-07-24T13:09:07Z] <wael[m]> testuser[m]12: I am not loading it
[2022-07-24T13:09:23Z] <testuser[m]12> try loading it explicitly
[2022-07-24T13:09:26Z] <wael[m]> Manually no, but I have a file in xorg.conf.d to use nvidia module
[2022-07-24T13:09:42Z] <wael[m]> testuser[m]12: also dmesg looks exactly the same. Even after it has quit
[2022-07-24T13:10:03Z] <testuser[m]12> https://github.com/kiss-community/grepo#nvidia
[2022-07-24T13:10:13Z] <testuser[m]12> Here  the  last point
[2022-07-24T13:10:35Z] <testuser[m]12> The NVreg* stuff can be omitted
[2022-07-24T13:10:38Z] <wael[m]> nvidia-smi?
[2022-07-24T13:10:47Z] <wael[m]> testuser[m]12: just have the nvidia-drm?
[2022-07-24T13:11:21Z] <testuser[m]12> tee /etc/rc.d/nvidia.boot <<EOF
[2022-07-24T13:11:21Z] <testuser[m]12> /bin/modprobe nvidia
[2022-07-24T13:11:21Z] <testuser[m]12> /bin/modprobe nvidia-drm modeset=1
[2022-07-24T13:11:21Z] <testuser[m]12> EOF
[2022-07-24T13:11:28Z] <wael[m]> OK will do that
[2022-07-24T13:11:46Z] <testuser[m]12> Then reboot and check logs again, using startx /usr/bin/wm instead of sx
[2022-07-24T13:11:56Z] <testuser[m]12> Can't think of any more issues with your setup
[2022-07-24T13:12:35Z] <wael[m]> > <@testuser:matrix.pratham.cc> tee /etc/rc.d/nvidia.boot <<EOF... (full message at https://libera.ems.host/_matrix/media/r0/download/libera.chat/a781cc927f2a958cd32b02cc5e1a3c7954417747)
[2022-07-24T13:12:44Z] <wael[m]> My framebuffer is really weird now
[2022-07-24T13:12:53Z] <testuser[m]12> Wat
[2022-07-24T13:13:01Z] <wael[m]> I don't know how to explain it
[2022-07-24T13:13:02Z] <testuser[m]12> It has zalgo?
[2022-07-24T13:13:10Z] <wael[m]> But 70% of the screen is frozen
[2022-07-24T13:13:17Z] <wael[m]> The top is active
[2022-07-24T13:13:20Z] <testuser[m]12>  type `reset`
[2022-07-24T13:13:23Z] <testuser[m]12> lol
[2022-07-24T13:13:33Z] <wael[m]> Doesn't help
[2022-07-24T13:13:38Z] <testuser[m]12> hmm
[2022-07-24T13:13:40Z] <wael[m]> 70% of my screen is just frozen
[2022-07-24T13:13:43Z] <testuser[m]12> How does that even happen 
[2022-07-24T13:13:47Z] <wael[m]> Can I upload images here via matrix?
[2022-07-24T13:13:51Z] <testuser[m]12> yeah
[2022-07-24T13:14:45Z] * wael[m] uploaded an image: (120KiB) < https://libera.ems.host/_matrix/media/r0/download/matrix.org/wSdfgXHgXavoYfQNFnEurqxO/IMG_20220724_161424.jpg >
[2022-07-24T13:15:09Z] <testuser[m]12> This is after setting the module in /etc/rc.d ?
[2022-07-24T13:15:12Z] <wael[m]> Yes
[2022-07-24T13:15:28Z] <testuser[m]12> What if you do startx now
[2022-07-24T13:15:50Z] <wael[m]> Same exact thing sadly
[2022-07-24T13:15:54Z] <testuser[m]12> Bruh
[2022-07-24T13:16:10Z] <wael[m]> Something has to be wrong with my kernel or something this is so weird
[2022-07-24T13:16:42Z] <wael[m]> wael[m]: Also, when starting Xorg there's glitched line appearing in the exact place the screen is cut here
[2022-07-24T13:16:58Z] <testuser[m]12> <testuser[m]12> "[    57.841]    (Run 'mkfontdir'..." <- Did u do this
[2022-07-24T13:17:06Z] <wael[m]> mkfontdir doesn't exist
[2022-07-24T13:17:09Z] <testuser[m]12> lol
[2022-07-24T13:17:16Z] <wael[m]> I doubt fixing fonts will help xd
[2022-07-24T13:17:28Z] <testuser[m]12> A lot of the time I'm just missing a font
[2022-07-24T13:17:33Z] <testuser[m]12> And installing one fixes it
[2022-07-24T13:17:58Z] <wael[m]> Interesting
[2022-07-24T13:18:05Z] <wael[m]> What can I even do? 
[2022-07-24T13:18:15Z] <testuser[m]12> I'd investigate more but i don't have access to my pc
[2022-07-24T13:18:31Z] <wael[m]> Should I try to rebuild nvidia drivers?
[2022-07-24T13:18:34Z] <testuser[m]12> No
[2022-07-24T13:18:39Z] <wael[m]> Or try to use nouveau as testing
[2022-07-24T13:18:41Z] <testuser[m]12> Reinstalling only helps on windows
[2022-07-24T13:19:14Z] <testuser[m]12> Yea u can try nouveau but you'd have to revert the whole nvidia setup with libglvnd and everything
[2022-07-24T13:19:57Z] <testuser[m]12> Btw anything new in the dmesg this time?
[2022-07-24T13:20:02Z] <wael[m]> No
[2022-07-24T13:21:49Z] <testuser[m]12> Btw can you send ss of nvidia-smi output
[2022-07-24T13:22:40Z] <wael[m]> Btw nvidia-smi just glitches the framebuffer but yes I will try
[2022-07-24T13:24:05Z] <testuser[m]12> If u don't mind then I might be able to check some more stuff with an unprivileged tmux shell, ms tech support style
[2022-07-24T13:24:51Z] <wael[m]> How?
[2022-07-24T13:24:55Z] * wael[m] uploaded an image: (89KiB) < https://libera.ems.host/_matrix/media/r0/download/matrix.org/UPrsniqfKlkUAmaXdTKvRXJO/IMG_20220724_162436.jpg >
[2022-07-24T13:24:57Z] <testuser[m]12> tmate*
[2022-07-24T13:25:14Z] <testuser[m]12> tmate-bin package in community
[2022-07-24T13:25:23Z] <wael[m]> Am I able to see what you will input?
[2022-07-24T13:25:23Z] <testuser[m]12> wael[m]: Seems fine
[2022-07-24T13:25:28Z] <testuser[m]12> Yeah
[2022-07-24T13:25:32Z] <wael[m]> Okay then
[2022-07-24T13:26:03Z] <testuser[m]12> dm me the ss of tmate output it gives a link
[2022-07-24T13:26:18Z] <testuser[m]12> Also I'll get your ip addr and you'll get mine
[2022-07-24T13:26:23Z] <testuser[m]12> tmate shows it
[2022-07-24T13:26:25Z] <wael[m]> Ssh part?
[2022-07-24T13:26:47Z] <testuser[m]12> yeah
[2022-07-24T13:26:49Z] <testuser[m]12> Dm
[2022-07-24T15:07:28Z] <testuser[m]12> Took 1.5 hrs to figure out that mesa was built without libglvnd
[2022-07-24T15:09:50Z] <wael[m]> 😅😅😅
[2022-07-24T21:00:59Z] <phinxy> libglvnd = Nvidia something.. Don't need that.
