00:58 <acheam> yeah vim is too much

05:03 <testuser[m]> Hi

05:21 <noocsharp> hi

06:49 <dilyn> o/

07:05 <testuser[m]> dilyn: how much faster did ur kernel build get with the patchset

07:06 <testuser[m]> It only saved 15 seconds for me

07:07 <testuser[m]> 1min 2sec to 47 sec

07:09 <dilyn> I think it might've roughly halved i'm not sure

07:09 <dilyn> it felt like it finished almost immediately lol

07:13 <testuser[m]> Halved from what

07:18 <dilyn> less than five minutes i'm not sure

07:18 <testuser[m]> Ok

07:18 <testuser[m]> Rich

07:18 <dilyn> i'll retest gimme a sec

07:21 <dilyn> god the linux tree has so many objects

07:31 <dilyn> 2m 4s -> 1m 12s

07:31 <dilyn> though it's not quite a one to one comparison (no zfs in the patchset build), my gut was right; roughly halved :v

07:32 <dilyn> there's certainly a law of diminishing returns here ofc. the bigger the config, the more value

08:29 <Featyre> Hi

08:30 <testuser[m]> Hi

09:08 <Acid-Bong> So, i'm configuring my kernel and i see the `wl` module in `lsmod` output (i'm using Arch(-based) live ISOs). Internet says it's a module for Broadcom hardware, but i don't have any Broadcom, all wireless on my machine is Realtek. How can it be enabled and should i include it in my kernel?

09:08 <Acid-Bong> (context: i'm using a laptop and my goal is to make a monolithic kernel without modules)

09:09 <testuser[m]> There can be useless modules loaded aswell

09:09 <testuser[m]> U can disable it

09:09 <testuser[m]> If it doesn't eork u can always rebuild

09:12 <Acid-Bong> How can i be sure whether the module is useless? At least I know that LVM-related modules are enabled because i'm booting with Ventoy, which places the ISOs content onto `/dev/mapper/ventoy` or smth

09:14 <testuser[m]> rmmod wl

09:14 <testuser[m]> then check if wifi werks

09:25 <Acid-Bong> what about encryption modules? My disks ain't encrypted, and neither is the Live CD (I think?) nor the kernel i'm creating

09:26 <Acid-Bong> or is the best way to just enable parameters for my hardware only?

09:31 <testuser[m]> U can keep extra modules but they won't do anything

11:05 <soliwilos> Acid-Bong: You could run "lspci -k", it lists the hardware with their respective kernel modules.

11:39 <Acid-Bong> got it

11:41 <Acid-Bong> is it enough to use `lspci -k` only (plus at least webcam, it's not PCI, but i know what module it needs)?

12:05 <soliwilos> If the currently booted kernel has modules loaded for all the hardware.

12:06 <soliwilos> Should be enough, along with vanilla kernel default settings.

12:07 <soliwilos> Don't set the filesystem you want to use as a module, though.

12:08 <Acid-Bong> i intend to use everything built-in, without modules
