darwini have a problem.  Sometimes in XFCE on Devuan, keys seem to get stuck, though they don't get stuck down.  Like I press a letter and it keeps appearing, or I pressed <DEL> on one email, and Thunderbird Mail deleted my last five days of emails.  I have an IBM model M (101-key) which otherwise works well12:11
rrqdarwin: check out "repeat" in "man xset" .. maybe it can do things13:12

dbbsHas anyone had any experience with HDR support on KDE on Nvidia with Devuan? Sorry if this is a dumb question.14:51
dbbs(or premature question...)14:52
gnarfacei don't, but a quick google search suggests to me that it's premature; you'll at least need newer nvidia drivers than are currently in any release of debian or devaun14:58
dbbsincluding excalibur or ceres?14:59
gnarfaceyou might have luck loading the beta drivers downloaded direct from nvidia.com, but i'd recommend making a backup first if you can, because there's a good chance it'll hose your install14:59
dbbsAh15:00
dbbsOkay15:00
gnarfaceyes, including excalibur and ceres, which still only go up to 535.183.06-1 currently. i'm seeing that you need at least 555.x something15:00
dbbsWell I won't install devuan to my desktop until I get a new nvme (waiting for christmas sales) drive so I can start transitioning my desktop over ideally to devuan15:01
gnarfacethere's some info that suggests it sorta works in plasma 6, but that it's still not finished15:01
dbbsI read some information that was along those lines but it wasn't devuan specific15:01
dbbsI really just want movie support15:02
gnarfaceyou mean HDR movie support?15:02
dbbsyes15:02
gnarfaceyou can keep an eye on the package current repo versions at pkginfo.devuan.org15:02
gnarface*current repo package versions15:02
dbbsoh thank you15:03
gnarfacehttps://pkginfo.devuan.org/cgi-bin/policy-query.html?c=package&q=%5Envidia-driver%24&x=submit15:03
dbbsI will put this in my toolbar to check15:03
gnarfacewhen it finally makes it into ceres, they'll probably also put it in daedalus-backports shortly after15:04
dbbsAh15:04
dbbsthanks for the heads up15:04
gnarfaceno problem15:04
