[2025-01-30T16:49:14Z] <sad_plan> kris_: a 4060 low profile. I already had one, but I messed it up..
[2025-01-30T16:49:17Z] <sad_plan> thanks midfavila 
[2025-01-30T16:49:26Z] <sad_plan> so Now I can finally play some games again

[2025-01-30T18:47:37Z] <midfavila> i am drafting all of you
[2025-01-30T18:47:55Z] <midfavila> riteo ur on the front lines now
[2025-01-30T19:30:43Z] <ilt> riteo: you did
[2025-01-30T19:31:06Z] <ilt> sad_plan: why not intel(the new B ones) or amd?
[2025-01-30T20:16:25Z] <kakker> Hey, I'm trying to test out Kiss in qemu. And maybe this is just a VM thing, but for some reason I can't get it to find boot. I got the UUID with blkid to make fstab, I think qemu should be bios (although my machine is UEFI).
[2025-01-30T20:17:59Z] <kakker> Because this is just a simple test, I just have one partition. I think kernel found the amd-ucode properly. Installed baseinit, and I understand that should be enough for simple boot. Wondering what could be the problem.
[2025-01-30T20:20:12Z] <kakker> Grub targets bios naturally as I'm assuming qemu uses it.
[2025-01-30T20:24:38Z] <kakker> I understood that I don't need initramfs, because I'm not doing anything fancy, but I'm probably missing something huge that should compensate for that.
[2025-01-30T20:54:58Z] <ilt> you'll probably need to use PARTUUID rather than UUID

[2025-01-30T21:35:48Z] <midfavila> bro holy shit 
[2025-01-30T21:36:02Z] <midfavila> america cant stop taking Ls over the past few weeks
[2025-01-30T21:36:15Z] <midfavila> "linux is malware"
[2025-01-30T21:36:45Z] <midfavila> you WILL use windows
[2025-01-30T21:36:53Z] <midfavila> you WILL own an android or iphone
[2025-01-30T21:36:59Z] <midfavila> you WILL work a gig job
[2025-01-30T21:37:21Z] <midfavila> you WILL pay 4000$ for a bandaid and an ibuprofen
[2025-01-30T21:37:54Z] <midfavila> you WILL NOT own anything, you WILL NOT receive benefits you paid into, you WILL NOT retire, you WILL NOT be able to afford education 
[2025-01-30T22:39:27Z] <kakker> I managed to get to grub by doing grub-install outside of chroot, but it goes "no display" (paraphrase) when I hit enter. Testing all the possible permutations of UUID/PARTUUID tinyramfs/noramfs, but no luck.
[2025-01-30T22:41:46Z] <kakker> Messing around with VMs is low risk and all but the uncertainty about the firmware is a darned thing.
[2025-01-30T22:44:06Z] <kakker> I suppose I'll try again later. Or I have to practice more on gentoo.
[2025-01-30T22:46:09Z] <midfavila> tbh i just use device node names
[2025-01-30T22:46:15Z] <midfavila> nine times out of ten it works fine
[2025-01-30T22:46:41Z] <midfavila> you can bundle firmware into the kernel too. unless it's weird hardware most stuff just runs without external files.
[2025-01-30T22:46:44Z] <midfavila> gpu is the big one.
[2025-01-30T22:48:33Z] <kakker> You just insert a live image to jigger the device names when it doesn't work?
[2025-01-30T22:50:14Z] <midfavila> on my workstation i actually have a rescue image in the highly unusual event i have that issue
[2025-01-30T22:50:39Z] <midfavila> only time it's been a thing on x86 for me is when i use a dedicated disk controller. sometimes disks will spin up in different orders so ye then i use either filesystem labels or uuids
[2025-01-30T23:09:01Z] <kakker> Thanks for the suggestions anyway, have to head off.
[2025-01-30T23:21:06Z] <kris_> i pretty much only use uuids, i dont see much value in using other things
