I reinstalled beowulf from scratch. Everything works fine now. The stanzas from inxi
on graphics and on audio now read

Thanks for considering the problem.

worked well. Thus, in particular, the hardware does support a better performance.

Add 'sleep 1' to /etc/init.d/eudev as shown here:
https://bugs.devuan.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=483#10That should take care of 1 and 2. If 1 is still a problem after that, install acpi-fakekey.
I don't have any ideas for 3, but maybe that will get fixed, too.
Thanks. It takes care of 1. However 2 persists, and 3 as well.
Trying with 5 seconds did not change it.
If you want to test this before you do it, you can run (as root):
udevadm trigger --action=add
and see if that gives you sound.
This gives a black screen.

I upgraded from ascii to beowulf on three machines. Two of them went well.
Problems on a Dell Optiplex 780 desktoo after the upgrade:
1. After booting there is no response to keyboard (one PS/2, one USB) and mouse (PS/2).
Only after inserting the USB keyboard both keyboards and the mouse work.
This occurs regardless of whether either or both of the keyboards or the mouse are plugged
in during boot. Plugging in another USB device does not work.
There is keyboard response during booting, also in the starter menue.
2. There is no soundcard, i.e. no directory /proc/asound. An onboard
"Intel Corporation 82801JD/DO (ICH10 Family) HD Audio Controller" exists and is detected
by lspci. Purging pulseaudio (after first commenting out in /etc/pulse/client.conf.d/) and also
reinstalling the kernel did not work.
3. The graphic is worse than under ascii. .In particular on the console the VGA16 has only
25 lines, whereas it was some 48 or so under ascii.
In fact, after the first reboot after the upgrade everything went well (I had not checked audio
then, though). The problems appeared only with the folllowing reboots.
