Thanks for the detailed information!
I have seen the problems only with the EQ sliders, but the changes are never over .04-.05 on the scale, and I can't really tell the difference in the sound quality, so I can live with that OK. Besides, it only shows on some of the sliders, and the values go back to the pre-sets on clicking the name in the Choose EQ Pre-sets box.

After installing Alsatune-3.1-1 I noticed that the values for the EQ pre-sets shown on Alsatune are slightly different from the actual values on the pre-sets.csv file. The changes seem to affect only certain frequencies within a given pre-set value group and may change after closing and launching the app.
I tried it with a number of pre-sets and the problem shows up on most of the pre-set groups.
Removing version 3.1-1 and installing 3.0-0, or 2.1-0 makes no difference.
I'd appreciate it if somebody using Alsatune could confirm this behavior or if it is just me.

I tried version 3 on my Acer Aspire 5 and everything works as expected. No problem whatsoever on mpv, vlc, Librewolf and Firefox.
Great job!
You may need to make a minor change in the README.txt file for the path to .asoundrc file, so that it reads  /usr/share/alsatune instead of /usr/share/mxeq.
Also, older EQ pre-sets will need to be moved to the user's .local/share/alsatune folder.

You may be interested in trying multibootusb http://multibootusb.org/. You can just download the tar.gz file and use it from a local folder. No need to install it.

#7 Re: Other Issues » [SOLVED] youtube-dl can't download YT video » 2018-12-14 15:12:13

I keep youtube-dl updated downloading the latest release from
https://rg3.github.io/youtube-dl/download.html and then copying file youtube-dl to /usr/local/bin/.
You can do that or just follow the simple commands on the download site.

#8 Re: Other Issues » [SOLVED] youtube-dl can't download YT video » 2018-12-14 10:44:03

No problem downloading here with command:

youtube-dl --verbose https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AuFiBjNTB9o

My versions of youtube-dl and python are:

[debug]youtube-dl version 2018.12.03
[debug] Python version 2.7.13 (CPython)

#9 Re: Other Issues » Autorun a script at boot » 2018-11-15 12:31:27

I stand corrected.
Changed code in original message.

#10 Re: Other Issues » Autorun a script at boot » 2018-11-15 11:38:49

Try this:

brightness="/sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness"
if [ -f $brightness ] && [ "$(cat $brightness)" != "3000" ]; then
        echo 3000 > $brightness

fi

Edit: Corrected code error.

#11 Re: Installation » [Solved] qcow2 virtual images » 2018-10-28 19:16:46

For a basic system do

qemu-system-x86_64 -hda path_to-your_devuan_ascii_2.0.0_amd64_qemu.qcow2

Just have a look at https://gmplib.org/~tege/qemu.html for some simple examples of use.

#12 Re: Desktop and Multimedia » How to upgrade Claws Mail client to Stretch backport » 2018-10-26 15:18:31

claws-mail 3.17 wanting to drag dillo is most likely just because you are also trying to install claws-mail-dillo-viewer or claws-mail-extra-plugins. These two have dillo as a dependency, but not claws-mail itself.
You can check dependencies here:

#13 Re: Desktop and Multimedia » How to upgrade Claws Mail client to Stretch backport » 2018-10-25 14:51:07

You may want to try adding this to /etc/apt/sources.list instead of stretch-backports:

deb http://deb.devuan.org/merged ascii-backports main

Update your sources:

apt-get update

And now install claws-mail-3.17

apt-get install -t ascii-backports claws-mail

Hope this helps|

#14 Re: Installation » How to install the latest python? » 2017-11-15 18:07:40

First time poster here.
Not sure if this is what you're looking for but I just add this alias to my regular user's .bashrc

alias python='/usr/bin/python3.4'

Any python scripts I run from a console will then use python3.4
