I posted some thoughts in this thread: https://dev1galaxy.org/viewtopic.php?pid=66038#p66038

But one thing I forgot to mention, been working with Devuan-Mate + Xlibre since last year, and only issues I had were that it didn't want to play nice with compositors on my old hardware, and secondly they've dropped some packages for older AMD hardware (mostly pre-2010 stuff).

Hey guys!

I'm the main dev behind SpacedLinux.com

My goal is to make an EASY TO USE devuan rolling distro that just works out of the box on all hardware.

And so far I think we've mostly nailed it (other than a recent AMD xorg deprecation, which I'm still researching how to resolve best).

If you guys have a better devuan rolling desktop out there somewhere: Let me know.

We've had about 7,000 downloads since inception in July, and were at one point #28 on distrowatch, even beating FreeBSD.

I'm currently working on seamless samba/windows networking, and fixing the AMD/xorg deprecation, maybe by moving to xlibre. Still in the research stage on both projects.

Version 10.26 should work pretty well on all hardware without issues.

It works better on real hardware than in a VM, although the VM should work fine as well, it's really designed for direct hardware and display integration via Compiz/Mate.

Cheers guys, and thank you for my favorite base OS: Devuan Ceres
