Hope everything goes well, keos.
#2577 Re: Off-topic » what is the difference between ./ and ././ [SOLVED] » 2018-05-30 18:36:47
I have often used something similar ../ or even .../ in web design to navigate to various files in the tree structure of a complicated site. Is ././ in a path to a file? Or within some code?
#2578 Re: Hardware & System Configuration » How to update drivers in Devuan (Miyo)? » 2018-05-30 16:26:34
mate-system-monitor is in the Ascii repos.
Yes, I checked and saw it there. It wasn't when I installed that VM several months ago. AntoFox must have updated some pkgs.
I like both Mate and Xfce but as of late slightly prefer Mate. Everybody has his/her preference but making compton work in Mate or in Xfce is just the same. The problem is using a preconfigured compton.conf and probably the default compositor at the same time.
The default Xfce compositor works fine here so I've never experimented with other options. I did resort to using compiz to address deficiencies in gnome2 maybe 10 years ago. Really more trouble than it's worth. The rotating cube was kind of neat though. Choice is a good thing . . .

So I'm curious, what DE do you use now?
Xfce since wheezy. I actually tried Mate on wheezy too but it still had all the annoyances of gnome2 so that was the end of it. I do use some Mate apps - pluma, atril etc.. Several of those aren't available for ascii - mate-system-monitor, mate-system-tools - which is a bit of a bummer.

Long before Mate, gnome2 got very long in the tooth for me.

Doesn't mate have a startup menu in settings where you can add whatever you want?

jessie install isos are still available at http://files.devuan.org
You might find this page useful.
debs of installed pkgs are stored in /var/cache/apt/

OK Miyo . . . I heard your plea . . .
My wardrobe is so basic it would never include a message T-shirt so please don't add me to the draw. But for a change of pace here's the default darkpurpy Xfce desktop - black is banished and not a terminal in sight. LOLOLOL!!
That's pretty much how my desktop looks.

That's a fine choice. Hope all goes well.
#2587 Re: Installation » How to install Devuan system/language into spanish? [solved] » 2018-05-25 18:46:59
I can't remember now exactly what iso ... and golinux is saying that without that information is not possible to help. And the whole thing is becoming to complicated for me ...
I think is better to download another iso and install this time in spanish. Which iso do you recommend me for spanish installation?Any way thank you very much.
There are no official devuan images on sourceforge. Please download one of the options from https://files.devuan.org/ or one of our mirrors at https://devuan.org/get-devuan.

Since we don't know what medium (s)he used to install, if (s)he has a DE or which DM (s)he's using (if any) it's impossible to troubleshoot.
#2589 Re: Installation » How to install Devuan system/language into spanish? [solved] » 2018-05-25 17:25:26
Would probably be helpful to know which iso you used to install.

There is no automated "confirmation request". Just let us know here that it's working.
#2592 Re: Forum Feedback » FIXED: how much is enough? » 2018-05-25 15:48:16
<rrq> which IP ?
<rrq> maybe 24.xxx.xxx.122 which requested "HEAD /req_message HTTP/1.1" some 12 hours ago?
<rrq> i've un-dubious-ed that IP
Please confirm.
#2593 Re: Hardware & System Configuration » can't mount external device » 2018-05-25 15:44:07
gparted also won't run.
pkexec was not working properly from the menu . There is a fix coming up in the RC2. In the meantime gksu works just fine.
#2594 Re: Forum Feedback » FIXED: how much is enough? » 2018-05-25 15:35:17
I just woke up. It is not personal so you can relax. rrq has installed a "snaplock" on this forum to flag "dubious" addresses as part of our spam control. It has caught a few users and even caught me several times when my IP has done something funky. So you can relax. rrq actually put a button in the admin panel but honestly I am hesitant to click it as I don't know that it has ever been used in a real-life situation and I don't want to bring the forum to its knees if he isn't around to fix things. I just pinged him but chances are he's zzzzz down under.
#2595 Re: Devuan Derivatives » Hyperbola Thread » 2018-05-25 03:18:15
I think that's a solution in need of a problem but I understand where you're coming from and why.
#2596 Re: Devuan Derivatives » Hyperbola Thread » 2018-05-25 01:31:21
Hyperbola has requested to be acknowledged on our init freedom page and that is being discussed. dxrobertson is correct that it is arch-based and only uses parts of devuan so not really a devuan derivative. More of a chimera.

There is no war zone except in your hate-filled mind.
did i say war-zone?
Yes.
you know this place is a war zone, right? you know it was when i left for a year, it was in the meantime, and it still is.
(Thanks to a dev1galaxy user for finding that)
