| ttsoares | Greetings. Just started the migration from Mint to Devuan to get rid of systemd... | 01:25 |
|---|---|---|
| ttsoares | It is possible to make full use of an NVidia card with Devuan ? | 01:25 |
| gnarface | ttsoares: yes, it's got all the same nvidia support as Debian does, same exact packages in fact, those ones and the kernel aren't among the few forked packages | 01:29 |
| gnarface | (you'll want to make sure you also install acpid and lm-sensors though) | 01:30 |
| ttsoares | firmware-nvidia-gsp/stable 535.183.01-1~deb12u1 amd64 | 01:30 |
| ttsoares | firmware-nvidia-tesla-gsp/stable,stable-updates 525.147.05-7~deb12u1 amd64 | 01:30 |
| ttsoares | libnvidia-egl-wayland-dev/stable 1:1.1.10-1 amd64 | 01:30 |
| ttsoares | libnvidia-egl-wayland1/stable 1:1.1.10-1 amd64 | 01:30 |
| ttsoares | mate-sensors-applet-nvidia/stable 1.26.0-1 amd64 | 01:30 |
| ttsoares | mir-graphics-drivers-nvidia/stable 2.12.1-1 amd64 | 01:30 |
| ttsoares | nvidia-vaapi-driver/stable 0.0.8-1 amd64 | 01:30 |
| gnarface | woah woah, be careful, there's anti-flooding measures here. if you need to send a long paste use paste.debian.net or termbin.com | 01:31 |
| gnarface | can someone unflag our friend ttsoares here? i'm sure that was just a mistake | 01:32 |
| gnarface | sorry ttsoares, i don't have ops | 01:32 |
| gnarface | thanks litharge | 01:32 |
| gnarface | ttsoares: still there? you ok? | 01:32 |
| ttsoares | sorry :-( | 01:33 |
| gnarface | it's fine | 01:33 |
| ttsoares | I posted the list of packs | 01:33 |
| ttsoares | apt list | grep vidia | 01:33 |
| gnarface | what was the actual question about them going to be? i probably don't need to see the whole list to answer it... | 01:33 |
| drizzt | paste the command to get them, not the result | 01:33 |
| ttsoares | I wonder if there is a master package that allow a single apt and all NVIdia stuff is in place | 01:34 |
| drizzt | or use an external paste tool and provide the link to the paste here | 01:34 |
| ttsoares | I like this one: https://lesma.eu/:help | 01:35 |
| gnarface | ttsoares: sorry, as far as i know, nvidia still hasn't figured out how meta-packages work | 01:36 |
| drizzt | ttsoares: you can make your own :) | 01:36 |
| ttsoares | With Mint all the process goes under the rood | 01:36 |
| drizzt | (though this doesn't solve the initial problem) | 01:36 |
| ttsoares | I'm too old to build restart build packages | 01:37 |
| gnarface | ttsoares: one note, just a small gotcha: as of current stable they've moved all the non-free nvidia driver stuff from "non-free" to "non-free-firmware" (Debian made this change upstream of us, not sure if Mint followed suit or not) | 01:37 |
| ttsoares | That I alread figured | 01:38 |
| gnarface | hang on, i've still got a current nvidia setup here on hand i can get you a package list from | 01:38 |
| gnarface | stand by... | 01:39 |
| gnarface | here you go: https://paste.debian.net/1329938/ | 01:39 |
| gnarface | ignore the :i386 ones if you're not using Wine or Steam, and ignore anything that doesn't show up in current stable, as this is a list from a system that's been continuously upgraded | 01:40 |
| gnarface | possibly present in current stable (it comes and goes, i haven't checked recently) but not in that list is nvidia-persistenced, which i personally recommend you avoid either way | 01:41 |
| blizzow | I'm having a nightmare of a time with my devuan install. I use a cinnamon desktop. It's about a 50% success rate when I open a file manager. I have a gut feeling it has something to do with DBUS and DNS resolution but I can't figure it out for the life of me. | 19:50 |
| blizzow | I know it's a vague description of the problem but I'm hoping someone might have seen something similar or understand what I'm describing. | 19:51 |
| blizzow | Sometimes when I try and open nemo or nautilus, it takes upwards of a minute for the file manager window to display. | 19:51 |
| Xenguy | blizzow, Are you installing Daedalus? | 19:53 |
| blizzow | Xenguy, yes. | 19:54 |
| blizzow | I've been running it for over a year I bet. | 19:54 |
| Xenguy | First you mentioned a "devuan install", so I thought you were trying a new installation, but now you say you've had this installed for some time, is that right? | 19:56 |
| Xenguy | If you have been using this install for a year or so, and now you are experiencing file manager problems, then the obvious question is 'what changed?' | 19:57 |
| dynastar | Maybe a rogue apt-update? This has been going on a long time. | 19:59 |
| Xenguy | I need to leave soon, so I'll just mention that if you are trying to install a new instance, it would be interesting to see how things go if you install MATE instead of Cinnamon (since I think both have a 'GNOME2' flavor) | 19:59 |
| Xenguy | Oh, you are dynastar now | 20:00 |
| dynastar | Yeah, whoops. sorry, I reconnected and hexchat went for a backup name. | 20:01 |
| Xenguy | No worries. If it were me I'd wonder if there is something messed up with my Cinnamon DE, and I might swap it out for MATE to see if things improve, or the same problems persist... | 20:01 |
| Xenguy | But I think your problem description is a bit hard to diagnose, unless someone has see the same behavior before as you | 20:02 |
| Xenguy | I don't use Cinnamon myself | 20:02 |
| Xenguy | Feel free to idle awhile, there are others who can help much better than myself. Good luck. | 20:03 |
| fsmithred | dynastar, start the file manager in a terminal and see if you get any useful messages | 20:46 |
| fsmithred | maybe even try it with strace | 20:46 |
