hello ,

i had upgraded the laptop and now on ascii and beowulf there is error with git.

it would complain of missing gnutls-handshake.

downgrading to libcurl3-gnutls from jessie resolves, but opens up other issues.

what can i do to resolve this issue?

error is like

fatal: unable to access 'https://github.com/FFmpeg/FFmpeg.git/': gnutls_handshake() failed: Public key signature verification has failed.

Hello ,

on a Thinkpad T400 i installed Devuan Asciii and everything seemed to function just fine (Suspend, Trackpad etc)
however, upon launching *powertop* i noticed that on Battery there was a discharge around 20W which seemed way to high to me (for a Laptop with internal graphics only on a Centrino Duo CPU (P8400 or P8600).

Therefore i tried with with Devuan Jessie and interesting, the powertop now reports around 12W on reduced brightness which seems OK to me.

So i think on this laptop Devuan Jessie is a good solution;

Trackpad can be manually enabled with the help of Debian Wiki

https://wiki.debian.org/InstallingDebia … Trackpoint

however, i noticed that the *Suspend* does not work out of the box, and even when i change the settings in XFCE (which were not setted to *suspend* upon closing lid), nothing happens.

Does someone know of a package i might miss to get this functionality back?

thank you very much.

Hello,

i have a small SingleBoardComputer Rock64 that i am trying to configure as a Print Server with Ubuntu 18.04 and CUPS for my Epson Et-4750.

The Printer is configured in CUPS @Rock64 where it is connected physically via USB cable.

The printer however is not shown in Devuan in CUPS at his location @Rock64.
It is recognized as Network printer (generically) because it is connected via Network Cable to the Router, but not specifically the Rock64 Configuration is shown.

Hello ,

i have noticed that on Devuan Beowulf i can no longer access the Smb share from my MacMini Server (running Mac OSX 10.6 hence Samba V.1)

on a separate partition running Ubuntu 20.04 Focal Fossa i noticed the same issue, but got cleared with the help of this trick here

https://askubuntu.com/questions/1232691 … access-nas

however, on Devuan Beowulf, the same trick fails.

it seems also, that the

gvfs-smb

package is not included?

Thank you very much for the help.

Hello ,

i noticed that although running the *latest* Devuan Beowulf the following video would not play in Firefox 68.6.0esr

https://www.rt.com/news/479938-horde-lo … di-arabia/

When i click on the second video
the message would appear *The media could not be played.

The same video would play fine however in Seamonkey Browser.

Wonder what is causing this behaviour?
(have installed Bluhell Firewall and Ublock Origin Extension)

Thank you!
