<davexunit>mattl: we have a minimal vm configuration build-aux/hydra/demo-os.scm that could be expanded with more useful stuff
*davexunit goes afk
***jxself_ is now known as jxself
*tadni_ is working on ffcall, for clisp.
<tadni_>"trampoline: cannot make memory executable" hrm.
<tadni_>Giving up for tonight.
***tadni_` is now known as tadni_
<civodul>Hello Guix!
***tadni_ is now known as tadni
<mongrol>hi folks
<mongrol>I'm trying to install guix using kvm or qemu. I'm getting console corruption with upsidedown, backwards characters etc. Anyone seen this before?
<Ulrar>mongrol: yeah
<Ulrar>But I have no fix, sorry
<civodul>mark_weaver: core-updates is OK for merging, as far as i'm concerned
<civodul>there are on-going builds for mips, but the important things are done, AFAICS
*civodul does some bug triage
<mark_weaver>davexunit: RMS asked me to update my entry in /people/people.html to reflect current reality. Is that something I can do, or should I ask you to do it?
<davexunit>mark_weaver: do you have access to the gnu.org cvs repo? I can check.
<davexunit>I (or another webmaster) can also do it on your behalf if you send the text you would like displayed to webmasters@gnu.org
<davexunit>I noticed that RMS was heavily editing that page over the weekend
<mark_weaver>I had access at some point, but it was ages ago.
<davexunit>yeah seems you don't have access now.
<davexunit>so I guess send the text to the webmasters.
<mark_weaver>could you just change it to: co-maintains <a href="http://www.gnu.org/software/guile">GNU Guile</a> and contributes to <a href="http://www.gnu.org/software/guix">GNU Guix</a>.
<mark_weaver>or should I email that instead?
<davexunit>mark_weaver: that's a small change so I can do that for you.
<mark_weaver>thanks! maybe add an entry for yourself while you're at it?
<davexunit>yeah that's a good idea :)
<mark_weaver>I guess there should technically be trailing slashes on those URLs, but it's not important.
<jxself>ACtually they should be relative.
<mark_weaver>ah, okay
<jxself> http://www.gnu.org/server/fsf-html-style-sheet.html
<jxself>:)
<davexunit>//software/guile and //software/guix
<mark_weaver>sounds good, whatever you think is best
<davexunit>mark_weaver: updated. :)
<mark_weaver>davexunit: looks good, thanks! :)
<davexunit>yw
<mark_weaver>it certainly is handy having two of the GNU webmasters right here on channel :)
<civodul>core-udpates merged!
