#2876 Re: News & Announcements » How you can help Devuan » 2017-12-03 18:12:12
Donate an ARM development board (50$-100$) (contact parazyd parazyd@dyne.org / #devuan-arm)
Donate an ARM or ARM64 build host (50$-200$) (contact parazyd parazyd@dyne.org / #devuan-arm)
Donate a MIPS board (50$-200$) (contact parazyd parazyd@dyne.org)
It would be great to have a list of which boards are needed, and how they could be used.
I haven't seen anything more specific than that. Just a few weeks ago parazyd asked me to add this to the Donate page of devuan.org:
. . . ARM or MIPS boards or PowerPC/Sparc hardware

There are problems with util-linux atm. It is a priority to get it fixed.
#2878 Re: Other Issues » Tried an upgrade to Ascii today, and got this message... » 2017-12-02 16:24:51
Good timing . . . there has been util-linux activity on https://ci.devuan.org/ this morning. Some build success but a ways to go.
#2879 Re: Other Issues » Tried an upgrade to Ascii today, and got this message... » 2017-12-02 15:43:44
There are long standing issues with util-linux. Though I'm not quite sure what they are, this package is a major roadblock to the release of ascii. Hopefully will be rectified before or during the ascii sprint coming in mid-December.
#2880 Re: Installation » OpenRC and eudev installation in Devuan ceres » 2017-12-01 23:51:06
When I was trying ceres a month ago system was freezing often. Now, after few hours ceres still behaves. To me this means that developers are working hard to get new Devuan ready.
Just now seeing this. IIUC Devuan devs don't touch anything in ceres except for the automatic removal of some systemd pkgs.
#2881 Re: Hardware & System Configuration » Clarity regarding eth0 device name » 2017-11-30 01:33:44
Has it been the last month that it moved from experimental to ascii?
That hasn't happened quite yet but will soon.

It was worked out in real time on #devuan-dev. No public logging there though . . .
#2883 Re: Hardware & System Configuration » Clarity regarding eth0 device name » 2017-11-29 22:14:35
eudev is being tested (quite successfully) in ascii.
#2884 Re: Other Issues » amprolla.devuan.org is not online » 2017-11-29 21:52:48
Actually a major pain.

It's very late here so will just post a link to the correct information for the repos generated by amprolla3:

There are several posts on this forum that also have that information

That mirror has been around for a long time. Sometimes geeks can be a bit gross.

#2890 Re: Other Issues » [SOLVED] <Ascii> xfce4-terminal; No Scroll bar » 2017-11-22 15:59:57
Happy to hear that you got that sorted. I hadn't thought to ask about themes other than mention the havoc that GTK3 is causing. There are many outdated, unusable themes in the repos. I am just now getting around to theming ascii. The wallpaper is almost finished then I'll move on to the window theme. I already know that there are problems with CPP so will have to find something else to use as a base.

Well, that's stressful. I guess this falls under the 'it seemed like a good idea at the time' category . . .

#2893 Re: Other Issues » [SOLVED] <Ascii> xfce4-terminal; No Scroll bar » 2017-11-21 05:08:29
Hi
Can anyone confirm, this issue is on his xfce also?
No problem here with my xfce4-terminal in ascii. As I suspected and mentioned above the scrollbar is nearly invisible until the lines go beyond the end of the page. Then a very narrow nearly invisible gray bar only a few mm wide pops up. Clicking on it turns the clearlooks color. Move the cursor away and it's invisible again. It's yet another GTK3 annoyance. There are also several scrollbar options in Preferences so make sure it's not disabled there.

I've studied your post several times in order to try and figure out what you're saying...I also pride myself (at times) for being a puzzle-deducer...I also try to put myself in other's "shoes" in order to gain a better understanding of where they're coming from...however...
I don't have a clue what you're saying here! LOLOLOLOL!!!

#2896 Re: Other Issues » [SOLVED] <Ascii> xfce4-terminal; No Scroll bar » 2017-11-20 16:24:49
The little bit I've played with ascii I've noticed that the scrollbar on some GTK3 apps (synaptic for one) is rather hidden and very thin even when it does appear. So try playing with your mouse to see if that's the problem in your case.
#2897 Re: Other Issues » Firefox goes to be just title bar with a thin grey line just below » 2017-11-20 16:21:22
It sounds like the window could be getting accidentally "shaded" via a mouse action.
As I recall, double left clicking or scrolling the scroll wheel on the window title bar causes the window to roll/up down. You could also temporarily switch to window decorations which support the shade button for a while and see how it goes.
Yes, there is no action button in the title bar but Clearlooks-Phenix-Purpy does shade with the scroll wheel and you might have accidentally done that.

#2899 Re: Installation » Installation: mirror or DVD.iso? » 2017-11-19 18:08:33
Last time I chose a mirror during installation
When I install Devuan (during the installation, not before), I am prompted to choose a mirror to get additional packages. So you advise me to use:
- pkgmaster.devuan.org
- auto.mirror.devuan.org
Use one or the other. For jessie, auto.mirror.devuan.org is fine. For more complete mirrors (including the file descriptions) use pkgmaster. Note that the mirrors are not yet integrated into pkgmaster.
I don't remember exactly but I think we have to choose a location (country) before selecting the mirror. In which country(ies) are these 2 mirrors located?
Sorry, can't help you there. Haven't installed using the Debian installer in a very long time. I'm guessing the default would still be auto.mirror.
#2900 Re: Installation » Installation: mirror or DVD.iso? » 2017-11-19 17:40:12
I am confused by your question. The distribution mirrors serve all the available isos including the DVD. Or are you perhaps talking about the package mirrors which serve repositories merged by amprolla3 at pkgmaster.devuan.org? For now, just use the latter or auto.mirror.devuan.org as the additional package mirrors have not yet been fully integrated into Devuan's delivery system. You also might want to post your sources.list here.
