Probably the first thing would be to check Synaptic's history and post a list of what all upgrades were done the day you started having trouble, there may be more than one issue.

I seem to remember having a similar issue with Firefox months ago, it would stop and give me that message that the keyring wasn't unlocked and ask for a password etc. Can't remember what the fix was though.

Strange, I use " own_window yes" on all my openbox systems, never had that problem with conky, I can click anywhere on the desktop in fact that doesn't offer it's own right-click option and i'll get the menu. Mate required a different window_type setting though.

dang, sorry, but I LOL'ed heavily at that just now. ;-)

I can relate, but with me it's the hearing that's really gone bad.

Had to pull into the gas station last week to put some air into a tire with a slow leak, but the air hose didn't have the chuck (fitting) that goes on your tire stem, it was just the quick-release end.

So I went inside and said I needed to use the air-hose to air up a tire, so the girl at the counter says apparently "You need a chuck?"

I thought she said something COMPLETELY different.

Gettin' old...it ain't for the faint of heart I tell ya.....;-)

Dang, kinda sounds like the hardest way possible to do what you are trying to do and the most difficult way to build Devuan, have you thought about just making yourself a nice little basic install iso with Refractasnapshot?

whew, finally! New maximal done uploading : https://sourceforge.net/projects/vuu-do … 4-maximal/

Oh hell no. Not long ago MS pushed an update that not only wiped out everybody's linux installs, it went so far as to actually delete the extra partitions.

You can't NOT know that's gonna happen, Microshit did it on purpose just purely out of spite.

Well proud to say that I have already eliminated a whole lotta stuff on that Debian list from the link in the first post from my stuff, but there's a few things on there I guarantee will break some installs.

I have a LAMP server iso somewhere in my files that a guy custom built from Puppy linux packages way back in the day, like a 40 mb iso and it's actually still running a small home server at a friend's house. That's as small as i've seen a system that would run a server.

How small are you shooting for with your Devuan project?

They both are on all openbox versions, the root account has the identical setup to the user account in all respects, theme is Miyo Dark, my favorite OB theme. ;-)

Currently on second day of trying to upload new maximal, got two 45 minute fails yesterday, one local and one from the SF server, so fingers crossed I may have a new version up in an hour or so.

If you are asking me i'm confused, as far as I know I don't have an extra arch installed on any iso's, were you asking Miyolinux?

Little confused again, I do have polkit1 installed and everything works using su. I do not run sudo so generally don't test it and really don't want to, lol, but if it's broke i'll try to fix it, are you saying that if you check the sudo boxes on install and give the user privileges that it's not working?

New version 1.0.2 Vuu-do's going up this week, Openbox-64-minimal already uploaded : https://sourceforge.net/projects/vuu-do … 4-minimal/

Openbox-64-maximal is pretty much done, just need to test a couple things.

Changes to all:

Refracta2usb is now included on all Vuu-do isos, if anyone can figure out how to work it please let me know. ;-)

Tons of small changes to configuration, getting everything standardized and dotting a whole lot of I's and crossing T's, more work done to Oxy2-ZEN icons, tint2, openbox etc. Doesn't sound like a lot, but it was hours of poring through the system and fixing stuff.

FYI : I also do all this to the root account on my iso's, if you like to run as root you will be pleasantly surprised to find the session identical in every respect to the regular user experience with the exception of conky, which I leave off autostart in the root account so I remember i'm running as root, lol.

Right-clicking on the clock in the panel will now change your timezone (by running gksu dpkg-reconfigure tzdata), left-clicking will still open calendar app. The clock tooltip has been changed to reflect the new options.

Dropped a couple small packages that weren't needed, and did a better job rooting out unneeded cache files.

All iso's updated to current, Devuan pushed another kernel update amongst many others, so that's what triggered these iso updates.

Openbox iso's include the new 0.99 version of obmenu-generator, and my own newest re-do of os-probes.

Changes applicable to maximal versions only:

Replaced Gsimplecal with Osmo, it's a much more full-featured calendar app, also for notes, tasks, and contacts lists. It's not in the menu, to activate you just left-click the panel clock like you normally would to activate calendar.

Plus some other stuff I likely forgot to mention.

okay, so you are saying you want a basic live image to install on all the partitions? That still doesn't require a saved filesystem. Once you run the iso you have it and can use it on all the partitions. You can't use the saved filesystem itself to build an updated iso as you can't add changes to it unless you subsequently re-copy the whole filesystem, i'm pretty sure it isn't set-up to able to auto-update itself.

It only takes about a minute or two anyway on my machine for the whole filesystem to be copied, it's squashing (compressing) that takes all the time. So you save literally about two minutes max.

If you really want to save time making copies and don't mind a DVD sized iso, comment out both xz options and use the default compression, it will go much faster but you'll have a larger iso.

I don't have a package list for the new Miyolinux, but I know some firmware was added. You might give one of my isos a try, I stuffed pretty much every wi-fi driver available in them including several extra Intel packages.

ETA: Okay just verified mine don't have the firmware you need either, they will more than likely boot but you won't have wi-fi, the firmware for your chip only works with 4.1 kernel or later......hmm............

I wonder if maybe you could get away with using the backported 4.9 kernel in jessie, and add just the 3165 firmware package? Just manually install the files in /lib/firmware/ ?

@fsmithred: Been mulling over trying to make a dual-kernel version of vuu-do, I think you need the newer ascii live-build packages to run snapshot with 4.9, but couldn't you just add the backported 4.9 as a second kernel, run snapshot using 3.16 session? If it works I also am curious about whether you could run a live-session with the 4.9 kernel or if the live grub menu could even offer that?
