| Guest36 | I tried checking "lsmod | grep -i wifi" and I get two results, iwlwifi 360448 0 and cfg80211 1134592 1 iwlwifi | 00:02 |
|---|---|---|
| rrq | mmmm or is it 4 bytes before that = 4084 .. yes 4084 works | 00:03 |
| rrq | yes that'd be the module(s) needing firmware | 00:04 |
| Guest36 | Affirmative, I also ran lspci -nnkv | sed -n '/Network/,/^$/p' and it shows the kernel module but no kernel driver in use | 00:06 |
| fsmithred | what are you trying to do? Did you check the sha256sum of the iso to make sure it was a good download? | 00:06 |
| rrq | Guest36: once the firmwares are unpacked into place you probably need to reboot | 00:08 |
| rrq | not alse that now your apt won't know that the firmware package is installed so you'll need to install it for real later | 00:08 |
| rrq | fsmithred: it seems the amd64_netinstall is missing on f.d.o (?) | 00:09 |
| fsmithred | yes, I see that. I have one here. | 00:10 |
| fsmithred | which I'm sure I downloaded from a mirror. | 00:10 |
| rrq | please ressurect with that if you can | 00:11 |
| rrq | resurrect(?) | 00:11 |
| fsmithred | yeah, I might have to wait until early morning to get a reasonable speed. | 00:11 |
| fsmithred | second way | 00:11 |
| Guest36 | rrq dd throws an error: cannot skip to specified offset | 00:13 |
| gnarface | you sure you actually have the whole thing? | 00:13 |
| rrq | so you forgot the bs=1 argument? | 00:13 |
| Guest36 | No, the bs=1 argument is there as instructed | 00:14 |
| rrq | and the file is 9336376 bytes long? | 00:14 |
| rrq | md5sum a4879ab997af980aa0dd8b0d51dcde2e | 00:15 |
| rrq | perhaps faster/safer to redo the installation? | 00:18 |
| Guest36 | I think we found the problem, the files are all empty, FYI am am using the .iso from the torrent that is 501 022 720 bytes | 00:19 |
| fsmithred | sha256sum whatever.iso | 00:20 |
| fsmithred | sha256sum devuan_daedalus_5.0.1_amd64_netinstall.iso | 00:20 |
| fsmithred | 722af7905595d9a1417f48f783d43dd40fe7da7a2e1d7998a8ea47df2d26941b | 00:20 |
| Guest36 | sha256 is a match | 00:22 |
| rrq | the package is in the pool tree; the ISOs firmware directory contains symlinks which might not work on all ISO readings | 00:23 |
| rrq | pool/DEBIAN/non-free-firmware/f/firmware-nonfree/firmware-iwlwifi_20230210-5_all.deb | 00:24 |
| Guest36 | rrq Bingo, dpkg -i just worked, rebooted and now I see kernel driver in use when running lspci -nnkv | 00:28 |
| rrq | great.. and the sun just came up here as well :) | 00:29 |
| Guest36 | I was about to say that this isn't a life or death situation, I just wanted to raise the issue, but the allure of getting it working though unix wizardry was too much. | 00:31 |
| onefang | Sun is slow there, it's been up for a couple of hours here in The Sunshine State. Think we hogged it all. | 00:31 |
| Guest36 | Thank you so much for the help and insight, my wifi led indicator might still be dark but there is still hope, or I might just have to wait for another release if this is something to be fixed. | 00:33 |
| rrq | onefang: yeah.. though I blame the largish building just 15m east of here | 00:34 |
| onefang | Anybody know of any good markdown to HTML converters? Or anything else that easier to write than HTML? So I can just hit return twice instead of typing HTML code for paragraph breaks and other similar things. | 02:49 |
| onefang | I just need to write some text pages, maybe an image or two. Nothing fancy. | 02:50 |
| gnarface | it's easier to just write a regexp that encases paragraphs in <p> tags | 02:50 |
| onefang | That was just an example. | 02:51 |
| gnarface | well, nothing stops you from passing it through more than one regexp | 02:52 |
| gnarface | but personally i don't see what makes [this] simpler than <this> | 02:52 |
| onefang | But then I'm spending time writing regexp, the whole point of asking here is to NOT spend time on it. lol | 02:53 |
| onefang | *this* is simpler than <b>this</b> | 02:54 |
| mason | onefang: I've been curious myself, and this article suggests pandoc can do it: https://itsfoss.com/convert-markdown-files/ | 03:15 |
| xrogaan | pandoc it is, yes. | 03:19 |
| onefang | pandoc is in the Devuan repo, so good start. It can convert a couple of dozen formats, which is good, but now I gotta pick one. I'll try it out, thanks. | 03:21 |
| xrogaan | onefang: pandoc -M lang=en -M title="Your Title" --section-divs --smart -s -f markdown -t html5 --highlight-style=espresso --css pandoc.css --toc --template=default.html5 your_markdown_file.md > some_file.html | 03:22 |
| xrogaan | you can find a bunch of themes a bit everywhere. For example: https://jez.io/pandoc-markdown-css-theme/ | 03:23 |
| onefang | I don't want themes, I use a minimal amount of CSS, usually only if I want to put different things in different corners. For this the only "theming" I'll want is white text on black background. | 03:25 |
| xrogaan | I like this one: https://gist.github.com/killercup/5917178 | 03:26 |
| onefang | Passed the hello world test. B-) | 03:34 |
| onefang | I supports Muse format? That's a music editor. Oh wait MusE is the music editor, dunno what Muse format markdown is. lol | 03:41 |
| onefang | pandoc is scriptable with Lua, my fave scripting language. My impression of it just went up. B-) | 03:46 |
| mason | nice | 03:58 |
| onefang | pandoc will do the trick. Thanks mason. | 05:16 |
| onefang | xrogaan: pandoc -f markdown --template=testTemplate.html5 -M title="G'day world" -M lang=en -o test0.html test.md | 05:17 |
| onefang | testTemplate.html5 in this case is a copy of the default.html5 template, with minor changes. | 05:17 |
| onefang | I'm not doing anything complex just yet, so I wont be looking at the Lua scripting now. | 05:19 |
| onefang | Though if you ever see me putting a \ between sentences, blame pandoc. \ coz that's how you add a nonbreaking space, which is the only way HTML knows to do two spaces between sentences. Which is my usual habit. | 05:25 |
| onefang | s/coz/Coz/ | 05:26 |
| leitz | Is there a way to tell (log, file?) if a patch run has been done even if everything is up to date? | 12:16 |
| djph | leitz: like if you ran apt-get upgrade ? | 12:22 |
| leitz | djph, I'm testing my ansible playbook on a host I recently patched. Just wanted to make sure the playbook did what it was supposed to. | 12:22 |
| leitz | I haven't done ansible in a while. :) | 12:23 |
| djph | dunno ansible - I'd imagine it has some form of log somewhere though | 12:23 |
| djph | :( | 12:23 |
| leitz | it did touch /var/log/apt/history.log, but it was empty. Fortunately I have a laptop that needed patching, and that one had a longer history log. | 12:24 |
| CueXXIII | leitz: there also is /var/log/dpkg.log for all actions dpkg did | 12:50 |
| leitz | CueXXIII, thanks! That one is also current datetime but zero length. | 12:54 |
| gnarface | if they just rotated, i think that would be expected | 12:55 |
| gnarface | did you look at dpkg.1, etc? | 12:56 |
| gnarface | sorry it'd be dpkg.log.1 | 12:56 |
| gnarface | and history.log.1.gz probably | 12:57 |
| gnarface | make sure you have rsyslog and logrotate installed of course | 12:59 |
| leitz | Yup. | 13:15 |
| eightonenone | beowulf apt sources are back to normal, thanks for fixing! | 13:53 |
| rustyaxe | still having issue where bluetoothd crashes if audio stops playing (paused, etc) -- leaving a .wav of white noise playing at 1% volume in a forever loop prvents this.. But thats ugly. Ideas? | 19:24 |
| rustyaxe | Using pipwire+bluez; it used to work until a few months ago | 19:24 |
| gnarface | rustyaxe: did you upgrade the kernel right before it started crashing? | 20:14 |
| gnarface | theoretically could be a power management issue in the driver | 20:14 |
| jonadab | So if leaving white noise playing at 1% volume all the time is too inelegant a solution, you could always set it to 100% volume :-) | 20:17 |
| rustyaxe | gnarface: Not sure what all was upgraded; it just broke one day several months ago.. i cludged up a crapware to play the whitenoise to keep bt traffic going heh | 20:18 |
| gnarface | rustyaxe: are you on the current stable release, and what does "uname -a" report? | 20:23 |
| rustyaxe | No way. its a laptop used daily; testing ;) Linux orc 6.6.15-amd64 #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Debian 6.6.15-2 (2024-02-04) x86_64 GNU/Linux | 20:29 |
| rustyaxe | But im thinking its probably a bug in bluetoothd that was added in last 3-4 months | 20:30 |
| gnarface | rustyaxe: that's possible, all i could really suggest is disabling the power management or trying the stable live iso | 20:37 |
| jonadab | Or send a copy of all the network traffic that comes through your primary network interface; in addition to keeping the bluetooth active, this also has the side benefit that you'll be able to hear if your network connection dies. Two birds with one stone! | 23:16 |
