Is anyone working on a Devuan package for Incus?

Perhaps you?

When it is available on Debian.

Good advice. Users on this forum deserve better than offerings like this..

Sigh . . . in the windows article this:

This could negatively effect users in parts of the world without reliable internet . . .

Good grief . . . idiot writer doesn't know the difference between effect and affect. And they get paid to produce this drivel? We are doomed! LOL!

Dear Altoid,

Even I have build a package or two over the years using this guide by Soul Singin' on the Debian forum:

HowTo Build a Package from Source the Smart Way

Give it a try if you're in the mood some day!

Unfortunately. . . wailing and pulling of hair over and over does little to turn the tide. It only wastes Devuan resources and perhaps provides therapy for those with nothing more constructive to do . . .

@quickfur . . . I bet you could make an excellent contribution to the joke thread with that info!

#409 Re: Off-topic » How to derail a thread part 2 » 2024-07-24 15:06:16

Good grief! If y'all knew anything about Devuan or those responsible for providing it, you wouldn't be posting such drivel. The constant flow of useless babble here and elsewhere is more than annoying. Please get a grip . . .

#410 Re: Off-topic » How to derail a thread part 1 » 2024-07-23 17:46:35

Yes, I remember rrq's objection to your unclickable links and I likely said something at some point also. I also understand your logic.

Since you are a bit of a noob, I'll share some history . . . at one time, iirc,  rrq removed the truncated live link function so links printed in their entirety. Due to user feedback from those who like to click a link, the live, truncated links were returned. Will be interesting to hear other forum members feedback about your manipulations to "have it your way".

But . . . what keeps ringing in my ears is this:

"The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few. Or the one."

In the meantime, please use the standard protocols of this forum as they were intended.

Hrumph . . . Please explain why are you using code tags for normal text. It's a bit disorienting . . .

@zapper . . . seems you're having a bad day . . . The movie in your head is the movie in YOUR head and obviously stressing you. Please take a deep breath and change the channel you're watching . . .

@pl . . . ditto

#413 Re: Freedom Hacks » Frustration with Mullvad » 2024-07-19 22:01:42

Whoa, zapper! Name-calling? Really? Maybe you'll want to take a deep breath and rethink that . . .

#415 Re: Hardware & System Configuration » [SOLVED] Connman panel icon not there ... » 2024-07-16 15:47:39

In Xfce Settings there is a Sessions and Startup - Application Autostart list. You should be able to add Connman to that list. Caveat . . . I am still on Chimaera . . .

Confirmation much appreciated. Thanks!

#418 Re: Devuan » [SOLVED] Mailing list subscription broken » 2024-07-12 15:42:15

@Tritonio . . . Please give that link another try. It should be fixed . . . Again, thanks for letting us know that it was broken!

#419 Re: Installation » does the Brave browser work here? » 2024-07-11 00:53:48

There are quite a few Brave users here but alas, not me . . .

#420 Re: Installation » [SOLVED] is there not an ISO that doesn't immediately start the installer? » 2024-07-10 23:23:22

I seem to remember that there are no live Excalibur (testing) isos available but there will be after the freeze. Right now there are too many changes happening upstream to keep the live iso current.

Sadly, there is nothing that Devuan can do because Dyne admins the backend of their mailing lists. sad

#423 Re: Desktop and Multimedia » Firefox broken? » 2024-07-08 18:42:00

Well, there is always Stylus which is a bit of a pain but gets the job done. I was using it before uBlock Origin and it is still running and working. Oops . . . power just winked in and out. Thankful to have everything important hooked to a UPS . . .

#424 Re: Devuan » [SOLVED] Mailing list subscription broken » 2024-07-08 13:36:08

Thanks for letting us know. Will get that fixed asap. Until then, all the available subscription links seem to be working from this page:

#425 Re: Desktop and Multimedia » Firefox broken? » 2024-07-07 18:06:08

Is there even the equivalent to the script/add blocking plugin system for chrome?

uBlock Origin works just fine and has an option to block JS and also options to block stuff with a click..
