brolin_empeyAs already discussed, Windows 8.1 and earlier use a stable release model but Windows 10 uses a semi-rolling release model.07:31

sleepingkirbyHey guys, wondering if someone can help me out. One of my nokia n900's died so I moved to a backup. Had upgrade the firmware on the backup nokia n900. But I can't seem to install aptitude (no package) nor man. Am I missing something?12:37
KotCzarnyyou shouldnt use aptitude/apt-get directly12:37
sleepingkirbyhuh, is there a command line version of the application manager I can use? Sometimes it's just faster to use the command line.12:38
KotCzarnyand i think man is also not available due to space reasons12:38
KotCzarnywell, you can use apt-get12:39
KotCzarnyif you know what you are doing12:39
sleepingkirbyI know man did exist at one point.12:39
sleepingkirbyand while apt-get is good, you can't search packages with it.12:40
KotCzarnymaybe you were using easydebian?12:40
KotCzarnyyou can use apt-cache search12:40
KotCzarnyfor searching12:40
sleepingkirbyahh, right >.<  forgot. thank you.12:40
sicelofor man, install `man-db-n900/man-db-pages`12:40
sleepingkirbysicelo: which repo is that in?12:41
sicelostandard repo12:42
sleepingkirbyhttp://repository.maemo.org/extras/pool/fremantle/free/m/ doesn't say it's there.12:42
sleepingkirbyahh, devtolls12:43
sleepingkirby*devtools12:43
* sleepingkirby also double checks to see if he installed easydebian way back and forgot about it.12:44
sleepingkirbydefinitely didn't do easy debian...12:50
sleepingkirbyahh, it was man-db and enhanced busy box. Thank you much guys ^^/12:51

infobotfrom memory, speedyham is 30 times faster than HAM https://github.com/community-ssu/hildon-application-manager, now included in ~CSSU replacing the original Hildon application Manager there14:43
sixwheeledbeast~ham14:43
infobotmethinks ham is Hildon Application Manager.  Slow as molasses. Anticipate you got time for a beer or two until it finishes whatever it does, or see ~speedyham14:43
sixwheeledbeast30 times is about right to.14:56

brolin_empeyI decided to try to answer my own question I had asked this channel a while ago, which was if the Linux kernel is still developed for the m68k architecture.  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Linux-supported_computer_architectures#Releases , which I just edited but not about m68k, implies that the answer is yes but http://www.linux-m68k.org/ is a literal cobWeb site: apparently the home page was last modified almost ***two decades ago***.  So, if Linux23:36
brolin_empeyfor m68k development or even only maintenance is still active then this Web site very badly needs to be updated because Linux for m68k appears to be dead judging by this Web site.23:36
brolin_empeyOr my question may have been if the mainline Linux kernel still supports the m68k architecture?  Yes, this question is a metaquestion.23:41
