@ ivanovnegro: Yes, you are right, by Steven Steigman 1978 called Blown-away. Used in magazine advertisements a little way back. Had always thought it would be a cool poster or wallpaper! : )

@ ivanovnegro: Very cool wallpaper, seen the image before without the color...is it a custom wallpaper?

I am assuming you may be running xfce or lxde with ob, this will work for xfce with openbox, slightly different with lxde. Will depend on which polkit your install is using.
Try installing gvfs if not installed. Secondly check autostart in home/ user/.config/openbox/autostart and see if the line of code is present.
/usr/libexec/polkit-gnome-authentication-agent-1 & This should allow you to access your drives with a reboot.

Uh, am I first in line here?
CROWZ Openbox based on Devuan ASCII 2.0
Normally run a blank desktop (no wallpaper) and no icons on my desktop. Live in Norman OKC (retired) and next door to OU and OSU universities which gives me the pleasure to meet many people from all walks of life and ages, interest. A pleasure to introduce Linux and Devuan in particular when I can. Have helped so far in a year and a half about 2 dozen folks to liberate themselves from Windows.
Thanks to Devuan VUA's and all the kind and very generous users/devs in the Devuan forum, we are all noobs to some extent and my sentiment is reaching out when you can and be of help to others.
This is my desktop I use to introduce folks to Devuan...

URxvt terminal
tint2 bottom launcher
CROWZ default obmenu (edited)
Thanks Miyo for producing an awesome distro, and for being such a visible, constructive influence here on the Devuan forum! : )
Thanks to golinux, she is an awesome and professional moderator, certainly tolerant, fortunate that we have her on the team! Kudos! : )
Big appreciative thank you to ozidev, without his continued support, encouragement and instruction CROWZ would simply not have been! : )
cheers

Thank you for the kind words zephyr...but they're undeserved compared to what you do.
I've tried the gtk version of connman's gui, but I could never get it to present itself in a good manner. It was always "squished" as far as what was presented in the UI. Nothing I tried helped. So I bow to your developmentalistism.
Certainly not the developer would like to be since I'm a Linux enthusiast and wanna be, have a lot of fun with learning my way around. Often lean on more seasoned devs to get a build out of the gate. : )
The great aspect of Devuan is the folks involved at all levels, helpful and share their knowledge, just as eager to help others as well. To benefit and assist others with their computing is my main interest. : )
Thanks for the compliments!
cheers

^ Miyo is an awesome distribution, using connman for CROWZ with the connmanu-ui instead of csmt. Easy to add in the start command in ob, fb or jwm.
(sleep 3 && connman-ui-gtk --tray) & cheers

For QT connman uses cmst for a GUI, haven't tried or used LXQT but should be enabled in autostart.

Live in the US, don't call any particular place home. Lived good deal of my life in the Pacific, Marianas and Hawaii. Born in Tennessee, Texas is where much of my family reside.
@MiyoLinux: Great state of Georgia, loved living there for a few years in Buford.
@siva: Could be the US with your riddle. For reference: New Madrid Seismic Zone, San Andreas, and Yellowstone National Park potential super volcano.

#375 Re: Other Issues » When is Amprolla3 coming? » 2017-10-20 19:04:03
Upgraded me lappie with the new source.list for ascii, all went well but on reboot LED backlight renderd everything barely discernible. Remedy was installing backlight and then adding to /etc/udev/rules.d/81-backlight-rules.
# Set backlight level to 8
SUBSYSTEM=="backlight", ACTION=="add", KERNEL=="acpi_video0", ATTR{brightness}="8"Lappie is a Dell 5050N, with a later installed LED screen. This could possibly be only for Intel graphics.
Fixed the issue for me. Hope this helps if anyone encounters similar issues.
cheers
