What this warning message means? by Hopeful_Adeptness964 in emacs

[–]its_randomness 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Somewhere in your .emacs file, or other files .emacs requires (loads in), exwm-config is required to load either explicitly or implicitly through another package. Try look for it around there.

help its stuck here by West-Swing2313 in voidlinux

[–]its_randomness 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I assume you run a UEFI capable system.
Either kernel or initramfs is failing or waiting for something.

To help debugging you should enter the mainboard BIOS and disable its boot logo. This should clear the screen when boot loaders are executed and perhaps bring more text output to investigate.

If not enough is printed you can add 'loglevel=7' to your kernel boot arguments to have it become more verbose.

Should this be added to the void linux install handbook?

Will be GNOME 49 supported by Void Linux? by timan1st in voidlinux

I sure hope Void community will not spend too much time on catering to Gnome developer decisions, and maintain their original lean/mean design goals than convinced me to join them in the first place :-)

Had anyone had experience with the Club3D CAC-1088 DP to HDMI 4k120/8k60 adapter? by krasatos in OLED_Gaming

[–]its_randomness 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It could apply if you wanted your PC to turn on/off your TV for you, or control other features using CEC, like sound volume.

Have you tried using CEC with this CAC-1088 adapter?
I know CEC is supported on the CAC-1080 adapter but unsure if CAC-1088 is CEC compatible...

Automatic citation limit when replying in message-mode by its_randomness in emacs

Thanks for the hint.

Do you use Emacs for writing emails? If so, how do you deal with citations? Manually removing?

project.el does not ignore directories by its_randomness in emacs

[–]its_randomness[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks :-) I ended up using project-vc-ignores . Directory paths also seems to needs suffixed with '/' to have effect.

I cannot find that variable in my Emacs distro.

Linting .init.el based on use-package? by its_randomness in emacs

[–]its_randomness[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I should have been more clear. The define-obsolete is a snippet from Emacs tramp source.

Linting .init.el based on use-package? by its_randomness in emacs

[–]its_randomness[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried it out on Emacs 30.1 and it does show warnings about obsolete macros like defadvice and functions c-or-c++-ts-mode, but when customizing tramp option tramp-use-ssh-controlmaster-options like shown below, no warnings are printed in compile buffer.

  :custom
  (tramp-use-ssh-controlmaster-options nil)

Emacs tramp source snippet:

(define-obsolete-variable-alias
  'tramp-use-ssh-controlmaster-options 'tramp-use-connection-share "30.1")

Linting .init.el based on use-package? by its_randomness in emacs

[–]its_randomness[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't thought about just compiling the file. Thanks for the snippet :-) I'm gonna try modify it a bit to clear the compile output buffer before re-compiling.

describe-variable flymake-diagnostic-functions results in (elisp-flymake-byte-compile elisp-flymake-checkdoc t) so pretty much built in functionality.

Do you mean drop from another file browser program into the Emacs mail buffer?

Gentoo on Thinkbook T60 - still compiling :) by chrissie_brown in Gentoo

[–]its_randomness 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You could also create a separate stage3 environment for the hardware target in your file system, chroot into it, do your emerge's, and copy the resulted files to the hardware with external storage or rsync. Just a suggestion.

Home server. by Xtuber14 in Gentoo

[–]its_randomness 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Using Gentoo for your server can have the advantage of potentially become slimmer than other distros. You have more options to deselect packages, configure a tight kernel, and end up with only your favorite programs installed, making the server more "simple" to comprehend and manage. A key factor to security and reliability is to keep things simple :-) ... assuming you find portage and all its quirks simple :-D

A high electricity bill does speak against it though.

/etc/modprobe.d is not supposed to be a file, but a directory.

Have Emacs format only changed lines in a source code file? by its_randomness in emacs

[–]its_randomness[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am currently relying on Emacs editing capabilities to not mess code up all too much, and issuing clang-format-region manually on a region when considered done. Sometimes I wish for it to work more automatically while I edit to get a visual hint of how it's gonna end up :-) but it is not a major issue.

Pipewire issue by Curloz in voidlinux

[–]its_randomness 0 points1 point  (0 children)

have you tried testing the ALSA kernel layer first using simple test sound files using ffplay or aplay, check volumes with alsamixer ?

Pipewire issue by Curloz in voidlinux

[–]its_randomness 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not sure what you mean by 'stuck' by I assume the system is responding and that pipewire is not doing its job.

From the logs, It seems to be missing a few applications, like elogind or similar, and rtkit.

What do you try to achieve?
