By the way, have you noticed a secret command "dh_auto_build --list",
and a trick with dpkg-shlibdeps
Yes, of course I'm following your experiments with interest.
Have you tried to compile fftrate? It will improve sound quality of your pipewire.
You can test it with and without fftrate. The difference should be obvious.
Yes, I tried it (on a test computer). The results are good. The improvement in sound quality is clearly noticeable.
Nice tutorial. Especially for crating .deb packages. Thank you.
in a minimal install is totally wrong for this situation.
Hello.
The system installation method I proposed is correct, because it allows you to install a COMPLETELY MINIMAL CLI system. By the way, the author's desire to install a minimal system and install a monstrous KDE environment on it (with its own packages) is more than strange. Do CLI programs that take up about two dozen megabytes on the disk matter if he plans to install Kde, which takes up almost one gigabyte of disk space?
I used to have a method for installing Debian where I could install a minimalist shell using the network CD/DVD and manually install only the shell utilities I wanted, then install just the very core of KDE/Plasma
Hello.
I'll put in my three cents and say that this is not a minimal system installation, because Plasma does not fall into the understanding of minimalism.
If you want to install Devuan and have a REALLY MINIMAL system, then you should use debootstrap mechanism.

Might I also recommend, while we're on the subject of AppImages and modern browsers, to have a look at the FreeTube privacy client for watching YouTube videos ad-free? It's very user-friendly, "modern", and uses their own servers for their API (Invidious relies on Google's servers). There are DEB files available, but you could also try their AppImage, Flatpak, and other provided packaged binaries for GNU/Linux.
Thank you for the info. Very nice app!
I am currently holding chromium / chromium-common / chromium-sandbox at version 134.0.6998.117-1 to keep uBlock Origin working.
Hello.
In my subjective opinion, this is a very bad solution. For security reasons. The current version of chromium is 136.0.7103.92....
Hello.
Dmesg show that ipv6 is administratively disabled. So, if it's disabled, it means it's not being used. Isn't that enough?
Maybe .xsessionrc has a section for commands ran on logout?
Hello.
Check this thread:
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=186450
Maybe this is flatpak package?
Do you have a suggestion how to automatically do so on a DM+WM/DE setup?
Use XDG Desktop Application Autostart: many desktop environments also support the Desktop Application Autostart Specification.
If your environment supports the Desktop Application Autostart, you can start pipewire by symlinking the desktop file to the system
/etc/xdg/autostart
or user
${XDG_CONFIG_HOME}/autostart
or
~/.config/autostart) autostart
directory.
If you are using a desktop environment, window manager, or Wayland compositor that does not support this, a tool like
dex
can be used to add support for Desktop Application Autostart, for example:
dex --environment <window manager> --autostart --search-paths ~/.config/autostart.
Also, pipewire can be launched directly from your window manager or Wayland compositor's startup script...
that makes it a Devuan problem.
I don't think it's a Devuan problem...I think there's nothing complicated about writing a pipewire to the DE or WM autostarting mechanism...
I've never got nvidia to install even by following the instructions above. The msg I get is:
Install linux headers:
sudo apt install linux-headers-amd64
Then install nvidia driver (for newer video cards) with command:
sudo apt install --no-install-recommends nvidia-driver
Or if you using older video card:
sudo apt install --no-install-recommends nvidia-tesla-470-driver
then, if needed, install nvidia-settings
sudo apt install nvidia-settings-tesla-470
Another option would be to use j4-dmenu-desktop. It is a very fast program that can be "hung" on the jwm keyboard keys.
sudo apt install dmenu j4-dmenu-desktop
And then in .jwmrc
<Key mask="C" key="space">exec:j4-dmenu-desktop</Key>
I am shocked the fools have not just dumped that AI garbage into everything yet like they usually do with such trash.
I agree. I think they will do so when the time comes.
Why doesn't sysvinit doesn't create those things automatically?
Because sysvinit follows a design principle which states that designs and/or systems should be as simple as possible.
Hello.
Just install package
xfonts-terminus
and reconfigure konsole with
sudo dpkg-reconfigure console-setup
but seriously can someone please fix this pipewire? We using bash scripts to start it, it will blow up someday. I tried to start it up via sysvinit, but couldn't succeed.
Hello. For auto starting pipewire, you can use desktop (or window manager) auto starting mechanism.
on a multi-user system not allowing you to choose the user to login in with, certainly eliminates anyone using the system for a total security win...
Then yes, it shouldn't be. It's a program bug. And to be honest, I've never had such a problem with SDDM (I use sddm-theme-maldives).
At least it was one of them -debian pieces of junk that did it to me.
It is for security reasons. The login name is considered sensitive information.
after re-design
Very nice design! Keep a good work!
but I am unable to convert them to .jpeg to upload to a website that does not accept .heif photos.
Hello.
Have you tried converting those photos using imagemagick? If you have it installed, open a terminal and type a simple command
convert namefile.heif namefile.jpeg
