I've been getting into a new genre of electronic music called "Wave" lately. Here's a good example:

I need an account to listen. No way.
Nice that you stopped by. 
#2378 Re: Hardware & System Configuration » I can not run software-properties-kde » 2018-08-24 00:14:03
Those packages are available in all Devuan releases.

This error may be from a misconfigured sources.list. Please check that it aligns with the options recommended here:

@campus . . . Just a thought . . . if you leave your notes here, other devs could be directed here if necessary rather than fsmithred having to do that manually.

Your sources are outdated. I posted a link above that should have clued you in about that. packages.devuan.org (that served jessie) uses the old amprolla but is now deprecated and will be decommissioned when jessie reaches EOL. deb.devuan.org, a round-robin of package mirrors, pulls from pkgmaster.devuan.org which is built with the new amprolla3 and has many additional features.
Please refer to the ASCII Release Notes for further clarification.

There's much more that needs attending than the certificate. I got sent to at least one 404.
#2382 Re: Devuan Derivatives » Astian OS » 2018-08-18 20:02:10
I couldn't be bothered to find and list all the weirdness/non-functionality. The site has been this way for months so the Astian community must think it's OK as is.

If there is not already a bug report please submit one at bugs.devuan.org

Congrats! I knew you could eventually get this worked out.
Who is capable, wants and can, signals to the developers of Devuan the impossibility for how the libpolkit-gobject-1-0 package is built, to use XFCE4 without installing consolekit/elogind. It is against the software freedom principle: we must not force anyone to use unwanted software! I hope they take this into account and that the next release (beowulf) no longer presents the problem!
Why don't you plead your case to the developers directly by submitting your comments/solution to bugs.devuan.org. Or better yet, explore how you yourself could provide a package(s) that would allow for the removal of these components. We're all in this together so we welcome more hands on deck.
#2385 Re: Hardware & System Configuration » [SOLVED] apt-file constructs wrong url from /etc/apt/sources.list » 2018-08-18 06:22:01
can a Devuan patch be applied to the Jessie repos to fix this, from a diff between Dev1 Jessie & Dev1 Ascii then?
I'm guessing that if you use deb.devuan.org in your sources.list instead of auto.mirror.devuan.org, that issue may be resolved. The auto.mirror default shipped on the jessie isos is now deprecated. But then it's late and I'm really tired . . .

I wish you'd fix your website. It's quite broken and doesn't inspire confidence . . .

#2389 Re: Devuan Derivatives » Linux Mint Devuan Edition? » 2018-08-17 22:32:02
I was under the impression that Mint was pro systemd or at least switched to it because of Debian/Ubuntu.
LMDE is related to Ubuntu but much closer to Debian.
#2390 Re: Hardware & System Configuration » [SOLVED] Configuring CUDA support » 2018-08-17 17:38:48
I've managed to get gmp-ecm GPU support working by recompiling it all with clang. See http://mersenneforum.org/showthread.php?t=23561 post 10.
Thanks for posting the fix. Seems no one on this forum has played with CUDA.
So this issue is solved. How do I set the topic to say that?

#2391 Re: Devuan Derivatives » Linux Mint Devuan Edition? » 2018-08-17 15:33:44
I had some contact with the LMDE dev earlier this year regarding a Devuan version with a promise that he'd get back to me but he never did.

You might want to have a look at the recommended sources.

#2394 Re: Other Issues » How can i get rar in devuan? [solved] » 2018-08-13 23:26:31
For the third time . . . there can be issues with pkgmaster. Use deb.devuan.org instead.
#2395 Re: Other Issues » How can i get rar in devuan? [solved] » 2018-08-13 15:03:04
pkgmaster works but deb.devuan.org is now recommended/default
#2396 Re: Other Issues » How can i get rar in devuan? [solved] » 2018-08-13 13:42:46
This is my sources.list:
## package repositories deb http://pkgmaster.devuan.org/merged/ ascii main deb http://pkgmaster.devuan.org/merged/ ascii-updates main deb http://pkgmaster.devuan.org/merged/ ascii-security main deb http://pkgmaster.devuan.org/merged/ ascii-backports main ## source repositories deb-src http://pkgmaster.devuan.org/merged/ ascii main deb-src http://pkgmaster.devuan.org/merged/ ascii-updates main deb-src http://pkgmaster.devuan.org/merged/ ascii-security main deb-src http://pkgmaster.devuan.org/merged/ ascii-backports main deb http://kovacsoltvideo.hu/moonchildproductions/ ./I forgot, i don't see any:
deb.devuan.org is a round-robin of load balanced servers that mirror pkgmaster.

#2399 Re: Devuan » new desktop-live iso » 2018-08-11 04:11:18
what about installer and get-devuan page?
The desktop-live installer - refractainstaller - rsyncs the running live system. It cannot add anything directly during installation. You could install another init option in the live-environment and then install the modified version. But if switching init requires a reboot that won't work. This from the readme:
Refracta Installer will install the operating system to hard drive from
a running live-CD or live-USB session. The running system will be copied
exactly - any changes you make to the running system, including desktop
preferences, configuration changes, or added software will be copied to
the installed system.
As to the get-devuan page . . . there is no one-size-fits-all iso. Devuan is about CHOICE.
#2400 Re: Devuan » new desktop-live iso » 2018-08-11 03:34:12
Feel free to prepare those isos and submit them to Devuan for inclusion.
