#1 Re: Other Issues » [SOLVED] Application gnome-disks does not start in Daedalus » 2025-06-02 15:59:30
Ohhhh, sorry.
It is actually there!
Starting on an terminal, I got what I thought was a png-error-image. Now I realize that it is actually the application - only in a collapsed form which can be expanded, maximized.
That was unfamiliar... specially since this is all in German. I think I will try to get Daedalus in English, so some problemas can be avoided.
Thank you very much!

Thanks! No, I do not run Gnome, I use Mate.
So I tried uninstalling the gnome-settings-daemon and reinstalling the gnome-disk-utility.
But nothing changes, it just does not open. I look at dependencies in aptitude and I see that it "collides" with the 32-bit (i3...) version (which of course isn't installed). But I do not know how that is relevant.
What I get when I try to start the utility, for instance on the console, is the information (as .png:)
"Laufwerke" (Disks): "no application has been selected". The same happens
when I use de applet or the main menu + system tools.
No idea what can be wrong.

I use Daedalus and I cannot start gnome-disks, whether with the applications-applet or on the console. Reinstalling the package does not help. I find in "dependencies" that a package appears as "damaged" ("Beschädigt: gnome-settings-daemon (<3.24)).
Perhaps this means that this last package should keep an older version (<3.24). The installed one is 43.0-1).
I don't have this problem on another computer with Chimaera, where the package works perfectly.
Thanks for help or tipps.

#4 Re: Devuan » [SOLVED] The 'snap' package in Devuan belongs to biology » 2025-05-23 16:05:40
The https://web.whatsapp.com/ option allows to connect the laptop-browser with Whatsapp on the Smartphone. I am looking for a way to use Whatsapp without any smartphone whatsoever - and I hoped, this could be possible.
But maybe I am wrong and there is no such thing, not even with "snap".
Thanks

The snap-programm seems to be the (only) way to get Whatsapp on the linux-laptop (instead or in addition to the smartphone). And some other useful programs will probably be available on it. So that is a bit of a nuisance.
Still, it is for the time being no big issue. It was to be expected that the distance to Debian would be growing with time.
Thanks a lot for the information and comments

'snap' is a platform for Linux (many distributions). Not so in Devuan, where the package seems to be related to specifical biological issues.
And I cannot find 'snapd' or 'snap-store'.
Is it possible tu use snapd "a service that enables the installation and management of Snap packages on Linux systems" (https://linuxcapable.com/how-to-install … ian-linux/) somehow in Devuan?
Thanks
Raul
