@golinux I think part of my response belongs in the thread where I posted.

"@knighttemplar you are kinder than I in this regard. I don't put up with crap like that. I would've probably told that dude who wanted to ban you, to quote "suck it."

Even though I probably would have been banned.

I don't tolerate corporate fascists or corporate thugs.

Also, staying with a distro that has such a community is close to the level of bad of tolerating actual idiots.

I have my limits I will say.

#28 Re: Installation » How to Install XLibre on Devuan Daedalus (MATE)? » 2025-08-26 02:24:35

It would be interesting to ditch wayland as a distro in the future for devuan. I know its primary purpose is to escape systemd and be like debian, but I feel like wayland is not the best way forward.  It probably has other problems that haven't been revealed that are worse than xorg in its best form.

Peace and love are good things, but I don't like crap either.

Btw, if you want more people like that dev, try to tell the people who are making the keypassXC to remove dbus because its a privacy risk. I guarantee you they will be just as idiotic.

I saw in a thread them thumbing down people who were correctly pointing out that dbus shouldn't be used in a secure application.

And being generally despicable.

Seems I missed a lot of banter from steve_v. I didn't think this thread would devolve so damn much...

Oof...

#31 Re: Off-topic » Thoughts on Pipewire » 2025-08-21 20:14:37

@stopai I am not fond of redhat or freedesktop.org projects and pipewire feels like one of those if it isn't already.

#32 Re: Other Issues » [SOLVED] Excalibur and fail2ban » 2025-08-21 20:12:10

@g4sra

But which package has the licensing problem? And if its python itself, say so.

If so, does this mean python has a problematic license like rust or java?

Asking...

#33 Re: Installation » [SOLVED] No audio on Excalibur through pipewire on KDE wayland » 2025-08-21 20:08:30

@steve_v OOF I didn't expect you to swear, and the F-word at that...

Dear lord... you are super pissed.

As for you going elsewhere, only gotta say, later then, if ever...

#34 Re: Installation » [SOLVED] No audio on Excalibur through pipewire on KDE wayland » 2025-08-21 02:26:15

@golinux Not sure, just that this whole thread has been derailed pretty well.

I am almost jealous I didn't derail it this bad tongue

I am not a programmer either btw. I know as much on how to code as you do. just my two cents.

#35 Re: Installation » [SOLVED] No audio on Excalibur through pipewire on KDE wayland » 2025-08-21 02:20:28

@golinux two things... should I watch this conversation with popcorn?

tongue

And also, if you think my nonsense was painfully stupid, look up qanon and pizzagate. big_smile

#36 Re: Installation » [SOLVED] No audio on Excalibur through pipewire on KDE wayland » 2025-08-21 01:28:05

Never thought I would see steve_v getting pissed at you golinux.

Oof...

What a weird day

#37 Re: Other Issues » [SOLVED] Excalibur and fail2ban » 2025-08-21 00:59:35

@g4sra which package has that awful license change? LXD?

#39 Re: Off-topic » The Joke Thread » 2025-08-20 15:48:20

@golinux yeah, I did. I thought it was funny lol. I wondered how quick you would lock it LOL.

I should do this more often am I right?

#41 Re: Off-topic » The Joke Thread » 2025-08-20 15:39:26

@golinux since this thread is getting a lot of nonsense, I am guessing its okay if I make a nonsensical thread devoted to weird stuff like aliens crashing on planet earth and sucking our blood out of our body. Am I right?

#42 Re: Installation » [SOLVED] No audio on Excalibur through pipewire on KDE wayland » 2025-08-20 02:49:25

@greenjeans its supposed to be started with whatever init is chosen (bopenrc/sysvinit/runit/s6)

I think that is what steve_v means.

That is how I start alsa and pulseaudio. I imagine it works similarly for pipewire

Unless its set to start this way.

#43 Re: Devuan Derivatives » GNUinOS - Libre » 2025-08-16 17:40:48

I tried the reckless method to install gnuinos recently... and surprisingly it worked.

I switched from Devuan chimaera to Gnuinos Daedalus. tongue

Had to disable key signatures temporarily though lol.

Anywho, I wondered if it would be possible to make libraries for the following no longer needed if not already done:

avahi, pam, elogind, pipewire, network-manager, dbus, pulseaudio, wayland.

Btw, dhcpcd-gtk also requires a dbus library for some reason... no idea why.

So far gnuinos' daedalus version works good in vm. Currently using connman though.

@Golinux not bad, nice color. It looks kind of gray which I like.

#45 Re: Off-topic » The Joke Thread » 2025-08-16 02:30:18

@golinux I thought you had lost interest in this thread tongue

@Jwm-kit I didn't know you hadn't seen that video before. Also, I didn't know you replied about this till now.  big_smile

#47 Re: News & Announcements » Excalibur testing isos » 2025-08-16 02:21:12

@golinux & @greenjeans

Making test isos is probably far beyond my paygrade too. I know like nothing about programming languages and very little about stuff developers do.  I tend to learn in order to accomplish what I need without driving myself nuts. big_smile

Hyperbola FDE + /Boot is the farthest I have pushed myself ever.

I have done the same on devuan though a long time ago too!

big_smile

This being said, I prefer the classic debian installer. I am not all that familiar with how to set up the same form of encryption you do with classic installer on the refracta one.

Just sayin

#48 Re: Off-topic » Is systemd still bad in 2025? » 2025-08-15 05:57:58

@greenjeans probablt true.

@everyone

I wonder when devuan's next release will be out.

#49 Re: Off-topic » Is systemd still bad in 2025? » 2025-08-12 02:04:49

The problem of systemd is mainly that it never stops growing.

Although, its already bigger than it needs to be.

It should have been complete after one hundred thousand lines of code at minimum.

Its on its way to being as big as the original Windows NT.  I read it has 6 million lines of code. Systemd has like 1 million at least.

The moment it surpasses NT is the moment people everywhere should realize the monster they made. (minimum if not sooner)  With the exception of redhat and microsoft and similar, because they have no humility in this kind of thing.

#50 Re: Devuan Derivatives » [PARTIALLY SOLVED] start difficulties with the 2 new Isos of GNUinOS » 2025-08-12 02:00:22

@aitor can you solve the problem with LUKS encryption installs failing? openrc might actually work for my installs IF and only IF the encryption process is fixed for gnuinos.

I have alas tried and it doesn't work for this exact reason. When I go to boot it, disk encryption causes it to drop to a shell.
