This is the best news I've gotten all day! Thank you Zephyr! Can't wait to put this on my 32bit Sony Vaio! big_smile


I have been Devuanated, and my practice in the art of Devuanism shall continue until my Devuanization is complete. Until then, I will strive to continue in my understanding of Devuanchology, Devuanprocity, and Devuanivity.

Veni, vidi, vici vdevuaned. I came, I saw, I Devuaned. wink

Re: CROWZ 32-bit i386-686 support

Perhaps this will work to change the language.

https://wiki.debian.org/ChangeLanguage

and this may help.

Re: CROWZ 32-bit i386-686 support

Stuck here on vacation with a 10 year old Lenovo T61 with only 2 GB RAM, I tried Crowz 32-bit( JWM) to see if I could get some speed out of it. Even with my password manager KeepassXC, scite, claws-mail, and typing this in Firefox I am only using 25% RAM per the nice little Conky across the bottom of the screen.  Ergo I have made Crowz my "Boot to" distro grub default.
Thanks for a great job.
Plus I'm trying to discern the advantages of Devuan over the Debian.
UPDATE:
After reading antiX's author on the MX forum on the unpatchable Spectre issues of 32bit Intel, I reinstalled with the 64bit version of Crowz-JWM ... still on a 6 GB partition (/home elsewhere, of course).  Still flies and I'm happliy running gramps on it now and, through wine, using my old database favorites InfoSelect & TreePad Business smoothly. I di dump firefox for Palemoon - only 336MiB/1.92GiB as I write this!

Happy Holidays to all.

Re: CROWZ 32-bit i386-686 support

Hello, how do I restore the configuration of the conkyrc? is that it seems to have a conflict with nitrogen 1.6.0.1. has an error that when closing session the wallpaper is deleted.

Any help?

---update---

i fix this problem compiling the 1.6.1 version of nitrogen, but i need the default conkyrc config, no the conkyrcb.
