If required, I reboot.
Looks like I need to stop being lazy and finally upgrade to #Debian 12.

I upgraded one server, no issues.
I lost my firewall rules, but that might have been an error on my part.

I use Deb 12 since it was "testing". No big problem encountered.
@Guy Geens, @Jonathan Lamothe, @zebulon 1α΅Κ³, dit "le maudit" are you guys using it just in servers?or on workstations too?
@El Cucuy some flavour of Linux has been my daily driver since the late 90s.
I only use a desktop and a laptop, both as workstations. No servers at all.
@El Cucuy Debian is a strong, good old distro. It gives me all I need. I use it since many years (version 5.x).
@Jonathan Lamothe are you refering to unitiy,from good ole ubuntu and switching in between them (on startup)?or sticking with one? got sway,btw?
@El Cucuy Yeah, I was using Ubuntu until last year, where I just stuck with Unity. I tend to stick with a particular DE for a fairly extended period of time, until I have a reason to change. In the case of the switch from KDE to XFCE, it was resource usage.
@zebulon 1α΅Κ³, dit "le maudit" how are you managing upgrades,since so many years?always starting from scratch,when a new major is out,with a backup,or...?
@Jonathan Lamothe totally get your point! have you looked into lxde?it's even lighter,than our beloved xfce,we are considering resource consumption..
@El Cucuy
(as root)
# apt-get check
# apt update
# apt full-upgradeIf required, I reboot.
When a new distro is out, I modify my /etc/apt/sources.list to change the distro name to the new one.
Also, other files I have put in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/, if needed.
Then I do the same as above. AND reboot (two reboots if needed).
If I need to remake a full install (eg I doesn't work any more -- too much broken things), I use the same username and password, AND DO NOT format /home (that always use another partition than /, which will be formated). And I install on the old install.
@zebulon 1α΅Κ³, dit "le maudit" thanks for sharing! appreciate it!! is your stuff kept primarily local? or scaled out in the cloud?
@El Cucuy: 2 servers, one desktop. I keep the desktop on testing.
One of the servers runs OpenMediaVault, which is tied to a specific Debian version. (Currently 11, will be upgraded when the next OMV is released.)
I keep the other server on stable.

@El Cucuy I don't use a cloud. Everything is local.
@zebulon 1α΅Κ³, dit "le maudit" I have a cheap VPS, but I run anything important on a local machine and port forward using SSH tunnels and a Wireguard VPN.

Has anyone ever successfully gotten a graphical tileset to work with the version of #DwarfFortress in the #Debian repositories?

I was doing it right now on Fedora and I had to install v4l2loopback.
You probably already had that, me too. Still did not work.
Then realized I had secure boot enabled. Now it works after I disabled it

@Joel :fedora: That feels like an icky thing to have to do... π
secure boot kinda makes no sense on linux anyways, pretty much all the approved signed software is approved by microsoft soooo
Since v4l2 is a kernel module which is not added from the start, it is not trusted and therefore it wont run

@Joel :fedora: I guess I'll have to look into it. The weird thing is that it was working when I had Ubuntu running on this machine (though I didn't have OBS installed through a FlatPak).
Joel G. :blobcatderpy: π²π½ likes this.
probably because ubuntu is an official package? I know flatpak is too, but its flatpak too which makes it more likely to break when permissions are needed
@joel
I believe there was just a discussion on the Fedora Silverblue issue tracker about signing off akmod drivers thru an optionally present signing key. I'm not sure if v4l2 is being installed in binary format, or if it's a dkms/akmod source package, but if it's the latter then you might look into signed akmods and enrolled keys.

I think the depth you take the secure boot signing is the important part. You can manually enroll your own keys for EFI signing, but it takes a bit more digging and some customization of post-install hooks of certain packages for upgrades to work. I've never done it outside of Arch myself, but I was able to get a secure boot that include a mandatory separate USB key holding an encrypted boot partition.

@Aaravchen :linux: :suspicious: So if I disable UEFI, am I going to need to reinstall my OS? Possibly just the bootloader?
If I remember correctly, I believe most distros that install as UEFI will also install a BIOS version for that exact case. But if you used Arch to do it by hand, you might need to confirm that first.
@wing Sorry, yes. It's the virtual camera I'm trying to get working. I had to go with a Flatpak because the one in the Debian repositories was too old. My guess is that it's being sandboxed.
@wing Ah... that was the problem. I'd installed
v4l2loopback-dkms but hadn't added it to /etc/modules. A quick modprobe v4l2loopback fixed it.This website uses cookies. If you continue browsing this website, you agree to the usage of cookies.

I was worried that if I couldn't fix it, I'd have to switch to vi.

@silverwizard Heresy!
Though, to be fair, the reason I have custom scripts is that the way Emacs works out of the box is brain-dead (particularly the way it handles indentation).
Tabs? Spaces? Why not both?

@silverwizard Sure, but only because we've arbitrarily defined them as such.
I guess I understand your stance on this. I just don't share it. I suppose I just have to chock it up to personal preference.
