^ sorry to correct you fsmithred but missing directory path there with grep command i think.
grep "COMPRESS=" /etc/initramfs-tools/initramfs.conf
is ubuntu using zstd for compression maybe?
I dont profess to know what is going on with the ubuntu side of things but how does ubuntu generate its hooks when building/updating the initramfs?
For instance, in devuan/debian the conf hook is located as per below..
sudo nano /etc/cryptsetup-initramfs/conf-hook
Hoas, forgot about that, cheers.
You may need non-free firmware to get it working, maybe give a little more info, like network card etc.
Show the output of this command...
lspci -knn | grep "Network"

Try backporting it then: https://wiki.debian.org/SimpleBackportCreation
I did this and it worked but failed at libfreetype-dev which is in testing, i dont think it is possible to even create a backport for libfreetype-dev without some form of major breakage, maybe not and maybe you know a way around it. For a standard stable beowulf install, netsurf 3.10 pulls in a lot of dependencies to get it working. I say worked as i followed the simple backport creation and it spat out a few .debs as common.deb and netsurf-3.10.deb and they installed fine and had the program up and running, it failed on this command regarding libfreetype-dev, but maybe the version of libfreetype in stable/beowulf is enough for netsurf-3.10 to run ok.
dpkg-buildpackage -us -uc
A better idea is something you mentioned in below link by way of adding MX repos to devuan beowulf which i did and it works perfectly for netsurf-gtk as MX has it already backported for buster.

Edit to add: ive also been running MX19 xfce4 4.14 version over devuan stable and have had no issues.
for the xzcat: (stdin): File format not recognized error maybe you are missing the package xz-utils ?
I dont know about cherrytree but netsurf looks to be missing from stable and bumped into testing/unstable .
Hi aitor, i tried the iso for ob amd64 today and could not get crypto disks working from the graphical installer, just would not proceed and had no info on the error, just could not continue. It did install ok without crypto. I tried a few different ways to encrypt but if the guided full disk encryption is not working then something is wrong in my opinion. Just thought i would let you know.
it needs to be converted to python3 i think due to python2 being deprecated. If no one is able or wants to pick it up it will just get relegated to the dustbin for future releases of debian stable/testing. This is why im glad i learnt how to use backend tools like ifupdown, wpa_supplicant and iwd.
based !
Thanks Kelsoo, i shall give one or two of those suggestions a try.
Cheers
Yeah your device is definitely not reading the sd drives, could be buggy hardware or a driver issue maybe?
what about what Hoas mentioned using sudo dmesg -w ? run that command and then insert some micro sd cards and see if there is any output to terminal?
Does it show up with the command lsblk --all
and can we see what is the output of that command?
Mine shows up in dmesg under mmc
sudo dmesg | grep mmc

I successfully recreated this issue with using libpam-tmpdir, im not sure exactly what is going on but i believe it could be a permission issue that veracrypt needs from the user that is being blocked by libpam-tmpdir somehow.
In the gui and cli of veracrypt i can mount an encrypted volume but it stays in /media/veracrypt6 (for example). Using thunar file manager i can successfully unmount it and mount it but it stays in the loop device. I havent rebooted yet to see if it disappears but logging out and back in again doesnt seem to affect it other than being unmounted.
NAME MAJ:MIN RM SIZE RO TYPE MOUNTPOINT
loop0 7:0 0 10M 0 loop
└─veracrypt6 254:2 0 9.8M 0 dm
To me it looks like dm-crypt has taken over veracrypt mounting or some such?
Rather than we continue going back and forth over the proposed naming, why not go with a generic one for now as a placeholder? That's the least of our worries. Having a centralized section for that use case is definitely a necessity.
I think the Devuan staff know what's best, and a huge plus is listening to the community. Let's lead by example with this new section.
I dont see the need for any rush to create a section, unless you have urgent issues? As the old saying goes "proper preparation prevents piss poor performance" or the 6 p's!
I don't mean to hijack this thread, but I also use VeraCrypt and have a different problem at the moment.
As I like to tinker with security, I installed the LibPAM-TMPDIR package, only to find out that VeraCrypt can't "see" that I have mounted volumes, thus no ability to unmount them through the software. I could do it through the system, but it leads to a bit of a mess. How would I go about fixing this without removing the package? Do I need to set a specific mount path for VeraCrypt? If so, that would be appreciated.
Are they veracrypt volumes?
Maybe dont hijack this thread and create a new thread as your issue has nothing to do with the OP.
Perhaps a sub category/forum of <index/Discuss> on the forum called Init Freedom ?
Possible name?
Init Control or the short version just as a play on words, Initctl.
Hi
I hope FTW is not meant in a bad way :-)) . I simply consider pulseaudio i plague like systemd. And I have seen no arguments for the opposite. I am a professional musician and like everyone to have the best possible sound. And I can hear a difference for the better when pulseaudio is not used ;-))
Have a nice day

You really need to put as your signature.

I like my hardware controls for alsa, well i have to using dwm..

vmg is in the debian repos, is xlupe a better option ?

VirtualBox is a buggy pile of shite which is slower than QEMU/KVM and the developers have a tendency of covering up and ignoring security issues.
See also https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugrepo … bug=794466
And it relies on blobs.
I see, but the other alternative I have on Windows is hyper-v of M$ which is even worst.
So not a good alternative at all then, thread solved! LOL

Updated with instructions for installing wicd and removing connman
jobbautista9 wrote:When I installed Devuan Beowulf in my laptop with the amd64 server CD, everything works fine. Except for my wifi ... . I don't mind wifi since rtl8821ae is crap anyway,
I don't have this device but the following instructions may work.
As root, add non-free contrib to your /etc/apt/sources.list file. The un-commented parts of your /etc/apt/sources.list file should look like
deb http://deb.devuan.org/merged beowulf main non-free contrib deb-src http://deb.devuan.org/merged beowulf main non-free contrib deb http://deb.devuan.org/merged beowulf-security main non-free contrib deb-src http://deb.devuan.org/merged beowulf-security main non-free contrib deb http://deb.devuan.org/merged beowulf-updates main non-free contrib deb-src http://deb.devuan.org/merged beowulf-updates main non-free contrib
Then issue the following commands as root.
apt-get update
apt-get install firmware-realtek
Reboot. Devuan Beowulf does not install a graphical WiFi manager when you have no working WiFi during installation. You need to install wicd by issuing the following command as root.
apt-get install wicd
Since you now have wicd network manager installed, you no longer have need for network manger connman which was installed during installation. Remove it by issuing the following commands as root.
apt-get remove connman
Remember, I do not actually have your system so follow these instructions at your own risk. You may have to re-boot for the changes to take effect. Good Luck!
A better solution would be learning about ifupdown/wpa_supplicant in my opinion, rather than an outdated wifi manager like wicd.

Frontman Dez Fafara states about “Keep Away From Me” and its accompanying visual:
“I’ve been social distancing since I was born. I’ve learned to try and embrace my Agoraphobia all my life. This is what the lyrics are about as we are all sheltered in place. They seem very clear. Now is not the time bands should shy away from the obvious by trying to push the narrative through their art as if everything is alright with the world and ‘it’s metal video visual as usual time’, as it is clearly NOT that time.We as artists should speak up, inspire and change lives, or paint a picture – a time capsule if you will – by the narrative we push in uncertain times. This video is one such art piece as my band and thousands of others are forced into quarantine – cannot rehearse, take photos, or perform – to make a music video for the very people that have supported us for years. It’s trying times for the world and my outlook through this video is simply this: ‘here’s what we are going through as a family on this planet and as we embrace what is yet to come... please Stand Together’.”
