Hi. I know nobody has replied to your post in over a month, but were you able to fix this on your own? If not, which driver are you using? Are you using the FOSS driver for ATI/AMD cards, or the proprietary one?

What happens if you shut down SLIM and run

sudo X -configure

? Can you edit the resulting xorg.conf file, set the resolution to 1920x1080, and start up an X session using the

startx

command?

Hi. I'm kinda new to Devuan, having recently installed it.

I wrote up some notes on what I did to customize Devuan on my workstation and laptops after the initial installation, but I'm not sure if it's worthwhile to reproduce them here in the forum.

My notes cover the following topics:

  • Upgrading to Testing (Ascii)

  • Installing fonts, themes, and additional software

  • Desktop Performance Improvements

  • Setting up Wifi

  • Improved Font Rendering

  • Improving Firefox

  • Getting the Latest GNU Emacs

This is mainly for my own use, but I hope it might help others. If it doesn't belong here, I won't gripe if an admin wants to move it.
