#1 Re: Installation » Both Desktop and Netinstall Installer Fails » 2026-08-11 08:03:06
I've had no problems - did you check you had a good download?
#2 Re: Hardware & System Configuration » Huawei Freebuds » 2026-07-30 17:22:48
Maybe Audio Mixer > Volume Control > Output Devices - (Port).
#3 Re: Forum Feedback » Withdraw Admin Rights... » 2026-07-27 09:54:00
That particular thread had run its course, I think, so no point in keeping it open...
Probably similar reasons for other threads too.
Also, some threads over 6 months old get closed, but these can be referenced if something genuinely new crops up.
#4 Re: Intergalactic Communities » Hello fellow Devuan devs can we build something?? » 2026-07-20 17:07:48
I run Devuan/XFCE quite happily, & have done for quite some time.
Not interested in a MS look-a-like, left Windows for good back in 1999. 
As regards to getting MS off peoples computers, I always install MX Linux (XFCE) for them. 
#5 Re: Installation » [SOLVED] Devaun Excalibur not booting after instilation » 2026-07-03 17:30:20
I've found, in the past, that the 'live' installer usually needs to be connected to the internet so that it can download the necessary files.
#6 Re: Off-topic » Proposing a a11y and aging friendly user init. » 2026-06-27 18:20:31
A definite NO from me - but if you want to build it for yourself, go ahead....
#7 Re: Installation » Iso to install latest Devuan on UEFI » 2026-06-27 07:04:10
I suggested using the Desktop .iso, not the Live .iso - the 'live' can only install XFCE, whilst the 'desktop' gives you the choice.
(I have found that using 'live' sometimes needs to be connected to the internet to be able to install the Grub boot loader.)
#8 Re: Installation » Iso to install latest Devuan on UEFI » 2026-06-25 07:45:04
If you have a home wifi, the SSID is usually on it somewhere, maybe look underneath....
#9 Re: Installation » Iso to install latest Devuan on UEFI » 2026-06-23 08:30:46
If you use the 'Desktop' installer .iso, you should be able to install your choice of desktop to install, directly to your drive.
#10 Re: Installation » Iso to install latest Devuan on UEFI » 2026-06-22 14:51:18
Kernels are not built for i486 machines these days, no distro will work on it, (unless it specifically says so) - better look for another O/S to use on it.
Maybe try FreeDOS.
#11 Re: Packaging for Devuan » [SOLVED] Compatibility with third-party repos » 2026-06-22 07:43:22
If Debian packages have a reliance on systemd, then they are incompatible.....blame Debian.
#12 Re: Devuan » Why not use runit? Do you guys use runit? » 2026-06-08 10:47:27
Ditto, been using sysV for many years without any problems, so see no reason to change...
#13 Re: Forum Feedback » Please consider not using stopforumspam » 2026-06-03 17:12:44
During that time, both my IP address and personal email were publicly searchable and downloadable - in machine-readable format no less. I'm in a country where this data is legally protected, so Dev1Galaxy may even be legally liable
Not at all, no one made you join the forums, so is totally on you....
#14 Re: Off-topic » Breaking the AI hype.(AI or Die..?) » 2026-05-22 13:08:55
AI is just a big database, most of the info has been 'stolen' from other resources, & a lot of answers given by it are incorrect.
It'll probably get better, eventually, but don't trust it outright....
#15 Re: Devuan » Missing GRUB Bootloader in installer images, since Daedalus. » 2026-05-13 07:20:56
I found that if you connect to the internet, it will download & install grub OK, if you don't connect to the internet before installing, you won't get grub installed.
#16 Re: Hardware & System Configuration » [SOLVED] Boots to Blank Screen » 2026-05-10 09:13:09
Depends which version you installed....
I used to install from the live desktop, which booted to desktop, with sudo configured; nowadays, I just use the server version & install with XFCE, (no sudo configured).
#17 Re: Devuan Derivatives » [SOLVED] REFRACTA vs. DEVUAN desktop-live, differences ? » 2026-05-10 09:07:03
Check out the packages differences between them.

Welcome aboard. 
#19 Re: Devuan Derivatives » List of Devuan derivatives » 2026-05-06 17:25:17
You are right, I should have said Excaliber - thats the trouble with using various different computer systems....
#20 Re: Devuan Derivatives » List of Devuan derivatives » 2026-05-06 07:42:26
Which ones are using Excaliber?
(Most seem to be using older versions)
#21 Re: Installation » Firefox lags and sometimes freezes completely on Devuan 6 » 2026-04-30 07:43:59
Maybe doesn't help you, but I have no problems using Firefox on XFCE on my I3 or i5 computers, using Devuan from 'server' media installs.....
#22 Re: Off-topic » Fluxer a Discord clone? » 2026-04-23 08:58:41
I don't see any reason to use multiple sites to discuss Devuan, it would fracture discussions over multiple sites, we have a very good place to discuss all thing Devuan right here.
#23 Re: Other Issues » [SOLVED] No repo will have me because I don't have any keyrings! » 2026-04-23 08:51:44
If it likes Firefox but not PaleMoon, easiest fix would be to install Firefox, update/upgrade, then uninstall Firefox if you don't want to keep it.
#24 Re: Off-topic » Raspberry Pi OS and sudo » 2026-04-16 13:59:30
....and it wasn't that long ago that the default user was 'pi', but at least now they ask at installation....
But it still annoys me that they take over the whole disk.....
#25 Re: Off-topic » Raspberry Pi OS and sudo » 2026-04-16 11:38:01
It's the normal way on Linux....
