What kind of guitar do you play?

I used to rock ... back when I was younger and had hair ...

I have a Takamine acoustic/electric.

I asked my wife for a compliment, because I was getting old, fat, and bald.

So she said, "You have great eyesight!"

I will say (but I can only speak for myself) that I haven't noticed a performance difference after the upgrade. Just seeing that higher RAM usage is kind of freaky.

Okay lucbertz, here you go. Open your terminal and...

IMPORTANT: You will lose your right-click menu during the upgrade to daedalus, but it's easily fixed.

Step 1: Make sure your chimaera system is fully updated.

sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade

Step 2: As root, edit your sources.list with a text editor.

Example: sudo leafpad /etc/apt/sources.list

In the sources.list, change each instance of chimaera to daedalus.

You will also need to add non-free-firmware to each line.

If it helps, this is my daedalus sources.list (Note that I use backports. If you don't, don't include that line)

deb http://deb.devuan.org/merged daedalus main non-free-firmware non-free contrib 

deb http://deb.devuan.org/merged daedalus-updates main non-free-firmware non-free contrib 

deb http://deb.devuan.org/merged daedalus-security main non-free-firmware non-free contrib 

deb http://deb.devuan.org/merged daedalus-backports main non-free-firmware non-free contrib

Save and close the sources.list file.

Step 3: Now upgrade to daedalus

sudo apt update && sudo apt dist-upgrade

At some point during the dist-upgrade process, you will lose the right-click menu.

This will take a while, especially if you've installed a lot of software. So, get a cup of coffee, sit back, relax and wait for questions in the terminal. Some will use a TUI, and some will just ask in the terminal itself. If you're unfamiliar with using a TUI, use your arrow keys to move up or down, use the space bar to mark what you want, and Enter to accept your choice.

Step 4: Fix the right-click menu

After the upgrade has completed, enter the following command in the terminal

sudo cpanm Linux::DesktopFiles

That will get your menu back again.

Step 5: Optional. If you want to tidy up, enter the next two commands one at a time.

sudo apt autoremove

sudo apt clean

Step 6: The Shutdown and Restart options in the menu won't work after the upgrade. This is temporary. You will either need to shutdown or restart with the following command(s) depending on which one you want.

Shutdown -

sudo loginctl poweroff

Restart -

sudo loginctl reboot

After doing one of those, they will work from the menu again.

Good luck!

Teslas don't have "that new car smell"...

They smell like Musk.

...all that I can say is...

Anyone who purposely chooses to use ratpoison has my utmost respect.

I was trying to start a Hide-and-Seek team...

...but good players are hard to find.

Recently, I was stopped for speeding.

The officer said, "Don't you know the speed limit is 55 miles per hour?"

I said, "Yes, but I wasn't going to be out that long."

HAHAhaha!

Interesting how things progress.

Personally, I'm not really bothered by how long a system takes to start up or shut down.

If I needed to do something on my computer now, Now, NOW...I should have turned it on earlier...or not shut it down in the first place.  However, I can't recall when an extra +/- 30 seconds was detrimental to my life (although I am Amnesiastical).

I just don't want "things" forced on me.

P.S. Nor do I watch 10-second fake entertainment TikTok videos.   I tried it once...just to see what all the hub-bub was about. It was the worst minute of my life.

This isn't against Uncle aluma's OP...just throwing it in for what it's worth.

My friends and I put a new band together.

We called it "999 Megabytes".

We still haven't gotten a gig though...
