Glenn do have a config exsample to blacklist hdmi?
Yes I do. I'll put it here but be warned there are many modules that rely/depend on hdmi.
I stopped using the blacklist when I was trying to get BT sound reliably configured.
here is a copy...
/home/glenn/My_system/backup-sys-default/etc/blacklist.conf
# blacklisted modules for PCI coldplug
# see also /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-compat
blacklist edac_mce_amd
blacklist edac

#blacklist snd_hda_codec_realtek #hda onboard 5.1 surround
#blacklist snd_hda_intel
#blacklist snd_hda_codec
#blacklist snd_usb_audio
blacklist rivatv
blacklist bluetooth
# For some bridges both intel-agp and i82875p_edac are loaded. If i82875p_edac
# is loaded first it will grab the device. Then intel-agp doesn't work.
# Therefore we disable automatic loading of 82875p_edac. (Bug 213840)
# https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=213840
blacklist i82875p_edac
# do not use "Boot Protocol" drivers, we prefer usbhid
# and they cause problems when loaded together with usbhid (#37726, #40861)
blacklist usbkbd
blacklist usbmouse
# disable PC speaker by default
# pcspkr is the standard driver, while snd-pcsp is the ALSA driver
blacklist pcspkr
blacklist snd-pcsp
blacklist nouveau
blacklist nv
# Prevent conflicts with nvidiabl
blacklist nvidia_bl
blacklist nvbacklight
blacklist mbp_nvidia_bl
# End of entries added for nvidiabl...in it's totallity... I think that file maybe a leftover from another distro.
I did this instead so the snd-hda* dependants satisfied

#411 Re: Documentation » Help - list all services » 2022-09-20 05:15:46
I have open-rc and so we can use,
rc-updateto view status.
you can add, del or change a service and start level.
rc-update del nethack-common default
rc-update add nethack-common offI have seen that the old service commands mostly still work, I don't use many of them, and only know a few.
status gives +-? results
service --status-alltype "service" to see the command options.
Hope this helps.

#413 Re: Desktop and Multimedia » amixer-gtk » 2022-09-19 00:49:26
I'd also like to go ALSA-only, but ALSA configuration is quite confusing.
I think the best I could do is get applications like Firefox to have working sound, but Steam and others did not (even with apulse).
My experience has been very similar, sadly. Before I had a computer my entertainment system had an outboard mixer... Plug anything in and go.

#415 Re: Installation » WineHQ » 2022-09-12 23:36:44
hello,
i tried this tonight ,
but don't know if this solution is still viable for devuan in2022.
atleast one this laptop here i get the following error
The following packages have unmet dependencies: winehq-devel : Depends: wine-devel (= 7.17~buster-1) E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.this happens on devuan beowulf for all 3 options (stable, developemnet or staging).
dont know if this applies to devuan beowulf in general, as i have upgraded from jessie probably up to beowulf, and in the process maybe used once or twice also the "deb-multimedia" repository.

Hi Kapqa, you may need to remove any packages from "deb-multimedia" repository. Fix the install and then if you really have too, re-install the multimedia packages.
#416 Re: Installation » [SOLVED] any chances to install nvidia-legacy-340xx on Devuan chimaera? » 2022-09-12 23:22:04
They are available... Usually I find them by searching the Version number (using synaptic package manager)

Common header files for Linux 5.19.0-1They may not be backports, I have them installed.
#417 Re: Installation » name of log for error/warning messages seen during boot » 2022-09-06 23:22:24
Hi, These can be revealing sometimes... You may need to be root to access these files.
search dmesg for errors,
dmesg | grep -i "erro\|fail\|warn"search xorg for errors,
cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep "(WW)\|(EE)\|(??)"I hope this helps you.

#419 Re: Documentation » [HowTo] Install VirtualBox 6.1.36 on DEVUAN 5 » 2022-08-31 22:52:51
I used to use vBox, I thought it was really good. Generally I used to use it for one game "DiD's F22".
Once that game was irreversibly tanked remotely, I gave up on vBox.
But I remember struggling to get vBox configured and eventaually having a system that was reliable and flexible.
I was still using Mandriva in those days.

#420 Re: Other Issues » move Devuan to a bigger partition » 2022-08-30 03:44:56
For the /home directory, I would use rsync -avh to copy files back to the new home.
But the system dir is another thing. when you format or change a drive size it will get a new UUID, you'll need that for fstab and possibly grub.
blkid and lsblk helps.

They don't ship to Australia.
I can send the bill to Aust, but not the product.
I sent an email alerting them of the ommission, and they suggested I use the .com.au site, <edit> https://www.spreadshirt.com.au/shop/clothing/t-shirts/ </edit> ... but I can't find the product (coffee cup, t'shirt) on that site.
Looks like they don't want to sell stuff.
