Hi,
at https://git.devuan.org/farmatito/migration you can find
the latest and greatest Debian to Devuan migration script
supporting Bullseye to Chimaera conversion.

Supported DE’s:

   GNOME/GNOME FLASHBACK
    LXDE
    LXQT
    XFCE
    KDE
   MATE
   CINNAMON

also SERVER migration is possible but risky
if you are not sitting in the same room with the server.

This script is tested only in virtualbox as I don't have
machines to migrate right now.
Backwards compatibility for buster to beowulf should
work but is untested.

I hope there are some fearless testers!

Hints, improvements and critics are welcome.

Hi,
they look good, just some minor things I would change:

1) the sharp part of the D looks to unnaturally sharp
    just adding a minimal rounding would make it more appealing;
2) I would remove the transparency at the base part
    of the sharp D part like the D coming out of magma,
    molten volcanic lava.

just my 3 cents.
Keep up with the good work.

Just out of curiosity where is it stored by systemd-homed?

Yes, I know, but it just works and for me it is no fun at all on a laptop or desktop to type a poem into the shell just to connect a phone.

BTW you get also other nice features like VPN working out of the box with multiple profiles and kicking in automatically at connection time,
per connection randomized mac address if you wish so etc. etc.

Hi,
the easiest way is to remove wicd and install network-manager. Connect phone and PC through USB cable, go to phone settings
and enable USB tethering. Done!

Ok, will try in the afternoon.

Best regards,
farmatito

Please stay with Debian to preserve the working work setups of many people like me.
Let's find some (new?) ways to reduce the work needed to maintain Devuan to a minimum.
In the long run sticking with the KISS principles will be successfull.
The KISS principles and software stratification in linux and thusly in debian is what allowed the adoption of systemd in the first place,
by breaking this principles debian and linux are entering a one way road that will make innovation impossible.
It will never be possible in the future to implement the next "systemd" as the tight vertical integration mandated by systemd
will not even permit to try it out.
To reduce the workload partnership with other non-systemd distros (even the rpm ones like e.g. PcLinuxOs) should be investigated
to avoid duplicated work.
Eventually reduce the distro to a Devuan Core (for servers, routers, firewalls, nas etc.) plus one supported DE (xfce?) to keep things going.

libnssckbi.so, i did not recall the name....

I usually don't often do it, but sometimes out of curiosity and to confirm some intuitions I tinker.
I you want to know how it works you have to break it.

Provando e riprovando.
(Dante, Paradiso, c. III, v. 3).

fork a devfox or foxuan ? :-)

BTW: I've tested a few alternatives like MIdori, Qupzilla, Konqueror but they are all more or less useless

Hi to all,
a simpler solution I used with KDE and use now with XFCE is to install the cron-apt package for taking care of the updating part
and to add this script to the application autostart settings of the DE:

#!/bin/sh
NAME=`basename $0`
LIST=`pgrep $NAME`
# Sometimes this process is not killed 
# when you log out of the DE so kill
# any leftovers
for ITEM in $LIST
do
        if [ $ITEM -ne $$ ] ; then
               # I suppose you cannot kill other people's processes
               # ....unless you are root
                /bin/kill $ITEM
        fi
done

# at KDE start wait 30 secs
sleep 30

while true
do
        NUM=$(aptitude search "~U" | wc -l)
        if [ $NUM -eq 1 ] ; then
                notify-send  -t 590000 "There is $NUM update" &
        fi
        if [ $NUM -gt 1 ] ; then
                notify-send -t 590000 "There are $NUM updates" &
        fi
        sleep 600
done

This could eventually be enhanced to display a list of updates as shown in previous posts and an icon.
If I recall correctly notify-send cannot launch an application by clicking on the notification dialog or at least
I was not able to find a way do so.

Just my 2 cents.
