F4 or F6 maybe(?).

Or pavucontrol(?). (Input Devices)

The reason most people use MS Windows is because it comes pre loaded onto their computer when bought.

Computers should all come with a choice of operating systems - not be 'locked in' to one company's software.

I buy mine without an O/S installed, even pre used ones, & therefore, have the choice of which system gets installed.

You should be using 'Desktop Live' then, not 'Netinstall'.

It is quicker & easier to get a system up & running with the 'Desktop Live' version.

What do you call a 'full' version?

To me, that would be 'Desktop Live'.

But if you want commandline, then choose 'Minimal Live'.

'Netinstall' is just the very basics to allow you to download (via ethernet cable) what you want from the internet when installing a new O/S.

Installer ISO - 'Desktop' is a DVD sized installation media (run it from disc or pendrive) useful if you don't have internet connection handy when installing.

'Desktop Live' is the easiest way to install a ready made system onto your computer.

'Minimal Live' is a full command line distro.

I've used JWM, & yes, it is a good WM, (I have my sister using it ), but I like a clean desktop, & I get that from Fluxbox normally, I generally use a right click menu, I don't need a task bar, but it is only a thin one.

I've seen a test somewhere that compares most of the WMs, & there is only a few MBs difference between them, JWM, Fluxbox, & IceWM being at the low end, are fairly close in using resources.

XFCE has obviously looked into reducing its footprint somewhere along the way, as I can run Firefox on XFCE & only use somewhere just north of 600MB, which leaves me plenty to have a couple of tabs open - I very seldom use more at any one time.

Installed & started out using just CLI, including Links2, with mc & mpg123, but just had to add Fluxbox & Firefox-esr......

Great little starter distro/version, likely I'll be dumping RaspiOS from my Pis soon, (as it seems to be somewhat bloated - & of course, has that systemd mess).

Many thanks for your work, (I got my download from Devuan.org this time).

Depending on how you installed Devuan, do you have the following installed?

bluetooth 5.50-1.2~deb10u1
bluez 5.50-1.2~deb10u1
libbluetooth3:amd64 5.50-1.2~deb10u1

(No idea what to do with them without reading up on them, but they came installed on my 'live' install.)

I went off Debian when they foisted systemd onto its users, I've been using a non systemd version/distro, but they have been adding too many things to the already full menu, which just makes it look tatty now.........

So here I am, back to Devuan, (I tried it a couple of times in the past), using the regular 'live' version installed to disk.

Seems to be working well, but haven't looked below the surface, so to speak, (& I'm not so sure I can be bothered messing with altering things on distros any more).

I just needed to find a decent replacement for my previous distro.

If they have cards in whilst booting up, then the system may consider them as hard drives, rather than removable - but it certainly wouldn't worry me - I prefer to manually mount all external media myself.

If you remove, & then reinsert the cards, do they show up on your desktop?

Recently, installed 3.1, & added Xshisen & Xpat2 for my time wasting.

Sorted - the default power manager settings were the fault!
