[05:19] <Eickmeyer[m]> OvenWerks: Ran into an issue while using -installer. It was chugging along, installing packages, then this: https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/p/Njz9whjgqr/
 ovenwerks the number of buttons vary wildly. it can be no buttons at all, 6 buttons plus a wheel, 8 buttons plus 4 directional buttons...
 also this script has swapping of screens. https://github.com/azbulutlu/wacomscripts/
 and yeah undo tends to vary from application to application.
 it is not a terrible idea to have some common sense presets, really, it is just that not sure how you would manage to do that without keeping a large database of possible tablets... which is a... well... can of worms? :))
 also apologies for delayed answer, it looks like the telegram on my phone wasn't updating for a few days.
 Eickmeyer belatedly 2 plugins to deal with mastodon mirror:
 https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/autopost-to-mastodon/
 this is for crossposting to the account
 https://wordpress.org/plugins/activitypub/ this is an optional addition but makes all of our posts activitypub posts, which means people who use mastodon, pixelfed or peertube or any other type of distributed media that uses activity pub can follow us directly from there. optional but would be cool to add. both of these addons are activ
[12:43] <studiobot> ely developed, and have been around for more than a year.
[16:35] <OvenWerks> Eickmeyer[m]: hmm, thats cryptic... line 43 seems to be line 146 of the file... 
[18:19] <OvenWerks> Eickmeyer[m]: can you tell if any of the packages have been installed
[18:57] <Eickmeyer[m]> OvenWerks: Looks like they all had when I ran apt -f install.
[18:57] <Eickmeyer[m]> Of course, I let it run for a while despite no interface feedback before I xkilled it.
[18:58] <OvenWerks> but it hung at the end then?
[18:58] <Eickmeyer[m]> Yes.
[18:58] <Eickmeyer[m]> Actually, it hung near the end, though the apt process continued in the background.
[18:59] <OvenWerks> (or perhaps while installing if the bar stopped moving.)
[18:59] <OvenWerks> What was the last text when it stopped showing activity?
[18:59] <OvenWerks> (what... no screen shot?)
[19:00] <OvenWerks> I guess I should ask how you were using it. which os, which cycle, etc
[19:01] <Eickmeyer[m]> Kubuntu, 20.04 (on the phone right now, standby)
[19:01] <OvenWerks> Ok, I will test... later maybe.
[19:06] <OvenWerks> @azbulutlu: The number of buttons does not really matter so long as I cover the maximum. If I try to set a button that doesn't exist, it will fail and that is ok.
[19:06] <OvenWerks> @azbulutlu: Thank you for the script...
[19:10] <OvenWerks> @azbulutlu: I will not have a database for tablets beyond what the user has. As the user plugs in each new tablet (or boots with them plugged in) a new entry will be added. The buttons can be pre populated from 1 to 16 (if they exist)... but the user can change them for that device. I am thinking that someone may find it use ful if they have two to put one upside down to have all the buttons 
[19:10] <OvenWerks> together or put them both 90 degrees out. In such a case any preloaded database would be wrong anyway.
[19:11] <OvenWerks> an upside down tablet would want button 12 to have the same as a right side up one has for button one etc.
[19:15]  * OvenWerks goes out to remove some snow.
[19:38] <Eickmeyer[m]> OvenWerks: So, yeah, no screen shot. I'll try to do it again.
[20:07] <OvenWerks> maybe a screeny that also shows the list of packages
[20:09] <OvenWerks> in any case, the problem seems to be an odd charactor output from apt. I would have thought that shouldn't matter, we just look for certain texts in a line of text at certain positions
