[19:30] activelow some weeks ago too Xorg changed some default input driver related to this, which i blocked; SDL2 on top of X11 doesn't cause any problems since events are routed differentl [19:30] activelow nonetheless, this is highly suspicious, if keyboard event api is altered to lock into systemd related dependencies [19:32] activelow and it seems i cleanly blocked this, with the only downside of SDL2 on framebuffer console got no keyboard i/o, which means no native framebuffer mpv media player or prboom gaming [19:33] activelow i'll try one more change, recompile SDL2 with libudev support, if this fails then systemd/evdev ruined native linux console keyboard i/o with SDL2 [19:34] activelow which is sad, becaues i got native framebuffer console with mpv dvd audio/video, and prboom 3d rendering, opengl, only keyboard i/o is broken with SDL2, one more try [19:51] psydruid I haven't gone that far, but I remember I could play a full HD video on the framebuffer 2 years ago, whereas I couldn't under X on my Orange Pi [19:52] psydruid at the time the system also wouldn't reboot, but now it does when I play videos with the QMPlay2 frontend to mpv under X [19:53] psydruid maybe I should try to play them using mpv directly [19:53] psydruid but it looks more like a bug than an overheating problem [19:54] activelow seems not a bug, SDL2 relies on evdev kernel API (somehow related to udev/systemd), which i removed [19:55] activelow and i might add, i find this highly suspicious [19:56] activelow and some weeks ago this was dropped from gentoo tree x11-drivers/xf86-input-keyboard, in favor of some evdev driver [19:56] activelow a change which i could block so far, not sure how long [19:58] activelow i am somewhat paranoid about peripheral I/O exposing interfaces to systemd/udev/dbus [19:58] activelow unnecessarily ● Sep 10 [20:05] psydruid i wasn't talking about SDL2 [20:06] psydruid but this does look like a deliberate and potentially malicious change [20:07] psydruid maybe I should try to see what happens on OpenBSD [20:08] psydruid one of these days, when I get the time [20:11] activelow no need to, already tracked it, SDL2 has linux-specific event handling for keyboard (on framebuffer console), and requires evdev which i removed [20:11] activelow this has some odour to it: kconfig CONFIG_INPUT_EVDEV [20:24] activelow this hurts, an older version of SDL2 utilized DirectFB, and handled keyboard without evdev there [20:24] activelow long story short: evdev(systemd related) did break SDL keyboard event handling when removed, amazing [20:25] activelow without X11 that is, x11 keyboard event handling differs, with SDL2 involved too [20:37] activelow so, no-systemd/evdev requires an SDL2 fork for keyboard on framebuffer console (and probably joystick too with the legacy non-evdev kernel api) :( [20:53] activelow kernel evdev api didn't break userspace, it breaks userspace now when removing it in favor of the legacy interfaces still present, with SDL2 which doesn't support legacy anymore, and who knows what else [20:54] activelow gentoo dropped legacy support from their tree for non-evdev keyboard some weeks ago [20:55] activelow FreeBSD does implement evdev, OpenBSD doesn't, and my gentoo-profile doesn't provide evdev either [20:58] activelow i mean openbsd doesn't seem to implement a kernel api for evdev ● Sep 10 [21:05] schestowitz what distro are you on again? [21:05] schestowitz I was always curious about openbsd [21:05] schestowitz some friends use it on servers [21:06] schestowitz but in terms of practical benefits over gnu/linux distros, not much to be found, maybe just smaller footprint and experience gain [21:12] activelow i am maintaining an own distro, with a custom gentoo-profile [21:13] activelow in the meantime, systemd removal didn't bite me with any x11-component, but it did surprisingly on on framebuffer console with SDL2 [21:13] activelow https://www.gentoo.org/support/news-items/2020-04-03-deprecation-of-legacy-x11-input-drivers.html [21:13] -TechPolBot/#techpol-www.gentoo.org | Deprecation of legacy X11 input drivers Gentoo Linux [21:13] activelow headline should be "enforcing systemd/udev/evdev input api" [21:15] activelow anyway, what this means: without udev/evdev SDL2 multimedia is effectively dead on framebuffer console, because keyboard input is broken [21:19] schestowitz-TR2 nice, we need more distros [21:19] schestowitz-TR2 which are not just ubuntu clones [21:19] schestowitz-TR2 or similar [21:19] activelow it is gentoo, but gentoo doesn't maintain a profile for what i seek to achieve [21:19] activelow and if this continues then: 1) Xorg requires a fork for non-systemd/non-udev/non-evdev, and 2) SDL2 already requires a fork which i am not capable of maintaining [21:20] schestowitz-TR2 gentoo is more open-ended than some [21:20] schestowitz-TR2 it's also not locked into, at its core, to redhat things [21:23] activelow problem is, with openbsd system integration tooling isn't as powerful as the gentoo one, otherwise openbsd is neat (from a technical perspective) [21:30] activelow evdev was a sneaky thing to do, even when systemd is gone, evdev isn't, and dbus sneaked into most systems too, same with libudev linked [21:30] activelow which makes me wonder, i removed all of this, and got an operational system [21:32] schestowitz I knew about eudev, not evdev [21:34] activelow evdev+libudev; and Xorg and SDL2 created a hard vendor lock-in; i could prevent the Xorg one only, but multimedia with keyboard on framebuffer console is dead without evdev, no more prboom-plus or mpv dvd there with keyboard input :( [21:34] activelow and chances are Xorg will break too [21:34] activelow which worked flawless for more than a decade [21:41] schestowitz-TR2 I think it's just udev on mine [21:41] schestowitz-TR2 yes, it's systemd-udevd [21:41] schestowitz-TR2 eww [21:42] schestowitz-TR2 systemd everywhere [21:42] schestowitz-TR2 except kernel [21:42] schestowitz-TR2 for now... [21:42] *psydroid3 has quit (connection closed) [21:44] activelow eudev here, but i am not linking anything against libudev, so eudev only creates device-nodes, and automounts usb disks, and nothing else interfaced [21:44] activelow the systemd plague is worse than i thought, given the evdev changes recently [21:45] activelow this is what Alan Cox said: [21:45] schestowitz-TR2 he said that about systemd? [21:46] activelow "Fuzix: because small is beautiful [21:46] activelow Fed up of SystemD? [21:46] activelow Kdbus the final straw? [21:46] schestowitz-TR2 not sure [21:46] schestowitz-TR2 it's not just systemd [21:46] activelow Linux community too large and noisy?

" [21:46] schestowitz-TR2 software tends to only grow over time [21:46] activelow they ruined it [21:47] schestowitz-TR2 until there's no going back and the only solution is ripping it apart [21:47] schestowitz-TR2 yesterday in LWN I saw in secuirty patches linux-azure [21:47] schestowitz-TR2 and I'm like WTF is this?

[21:47] schestowitz-TR2 I should not need ANYTHING "azure" in Linux [21:48] schestowitz-TR2 or "hyperv" [21:48] schestowitz-TR2 this is feature churn [21:48] schestowitz-TR2 it also becomes performance and security toll [21:48] schestowitz-TR2 much like toda's browsers [21:48] schestowitz-TR2 200MB of RAM before you even do ANYTHING [21:48] schestowitz-TR2 it was less than 20MB just around 2000 [21:49] schestowitz-TR2 gemini browser, telescope, is 1MB of RAM [21:49] schestowitz-TR2 and it supports tabs and all [21:51] activelow gemini is cool [21:51] activelow nonetheless, wikipedia didn't manage yet to proxy into gemini, with references to resources (illustrations etc) [21:51] schestowitz-TR2 it can only improve over time [21:51] schestowitz-TR2 as they see more users of it [21:52] activelow wishthinking i fear, among the gnu/linux/bsd people the gemini crowd is marginal, fuzix even less [21:53] schestowitz-TR2 it is growing fast though [21:53] schestowitz-TR2 1000 capsules in april [21:53] schestowitz-TR2 1600 now [21:53] schestowitz-TR2 what's important is the momentum ● Sep 10 [22:06] activelow wikipedia could proxy into gemini, remaining 100% complient with the protocol [22:07] activelow as i understood it, any update to a document creates a new gemini document reference, documents cannot easily be changed anymore?
