Hi

Theres a quite a good compression ratio of zipping of text files.

If the repository files are zipped then, the updating would take much smaller time, on both ends: server & client.
Plus ... lower bandwidth usage, and lesser network traffic.

Like right now:
http://packages.devuan.org/merged/dists/2.0/

ls -hls

112K -rw-r--r-- 1 user users 111K Nov 27 04:11 Release
 24K -rw-r--r-- 1 user users  22K Nov 27 04:11 Release.xz

Thankyou

#28 Re: Desktop and Multimedia » [SOLVED] <Ascii> Conky ~ Errors in configuration file » 2017-11-25 22:06:13

Thankyou Sir!

But I did forgot to look into: /etc/conky

Strangely, the versions are same, but Debian didnt made any issues on the use of the older configuration technique.

Hi

Checking into:

Applications > Settings > Appearance > Style

I solved it by choosing:

Crux instead of "Clearlooks-Phenix-Purpy"

Strange there is no side bar for terminal in "crux", rest were working.

Thankyou

Hi

I made a mistake trying to make my OS smaller. So I removed a few packages from the dependencies of meta package xfce4. But now I am getting this dependency issue, even though I reinstalled the earlier removed packages:

Calculating upgrade... The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required:
  hddtemp libxfcegui4-4 ristretto xfce4-artwork xfce4-battery-plugin

  xfce4-weather-plugin xfce4-xkb-plugin
Use 'apt-get autoremove' to remove them.

But I want to keep these packages. ... Kindly guide.

Thankyou.

Hi

Dear Forum Admin

Usually all sites have a direct search option, here it is missing. First one has to click to go to next page and then use search options, which is more akin to be an advance search.

Kindly provide a small search right on top right, so it is fastly accessible.

Thankyou

Right now Debian documentation and wiki are going slow, and not updated, even with 9.2 release.

2. It means that each Devuan will be actually following the release of each Debian, with same kernel version and packages, as is?

Thankyou

#41 Re: Forum Feedback » [Discussed] Documentation Section » 2017-11-04 21:08:43

Hi

I assume; more than 60% would be a mere copy paste of debian jessie for stable.

For ascii, I cannot say, as the kernel has not yet been finalized, perhaps it will be 4.14 LTS ...

Thankyou

I am suggesting to have these sub sections, in text format, in the Documents section, along with how tos:

1. Documentation
2. Wiki
3. Handbook
4. How tos

where members can contribute to devuan.

Thanks

Edit 1: Adding the name feature would be fun to use, if the forum admin allows. I hope server can manage some more space.

Hi

I tried to google, but didnt quite get some things like:

1. Documentation
2. Wiki
3. Handbook

except for:
https://dev1galaxy.org/viewtopic.php?id=1499

It shall be really kind of the admins of this forum to include these three sections under the Documentation, even as under construction or under edit (pointing to existing debian ones) or let the forum users contribute. I dont assume that it may be an overload for this website.

Just a suggestion...

Thankyou

#47 Re: Other Issues » [Solved] Virtualbox guest additions - not working (Ascii) » 2017-11-03 13:06:35

Hi

I actually cloned the jessie, then upgraded to ascii. Then installed the guest cd after the upgrade.

I dont see any issue except that the guest addons arent working...

My folder creation was same as for jessie, no difference.

My host OS is Arch.

Edit 1: I reinstalled the guest additions:

# sh VBoxLinuxAdditions.run 
Verifying archive integrity... All good.
Uncompressing VirtualBox 5.1.30 Guest Additions for Linux...........
VirtualBox Guest Additions installer
Removing installed version 5.1.30 of VirtualBox Guest Additions...
vboxadd.sh: Stopping VirtualBox Additions.
Copying additional installer modules ...
Installing additional modules ...
vboxadd.sh: Starting the VirtualBox Guest Additions.
Failed to set up service vboxadd, please check the log file
/var/log/VBoxGuestAdditions.log for details.

# cat /var/log/VBoxGuestAdditions.log

vboxadd.sh: failed: modprobe vboxguest failed.

Edit: Installing the dkms and the kernel header solved the issue.

Thankyou

Yes, libsystemd0 is passively there not doing anything (so far) but systemd is not.  There are other remnants of systemd libs etc, scattered here and there like dead barnacles on a boat.  Not ideal but not enough (wo)man power to clean out the cruft which requires it.   This has been discussed MANY times over the years.

Hi

I have installed the guest cd components, but they are not working in ascii: like shared folder.

I am having devuan ascii installed inside virtualbox 5.1.30

also I get for:

cat /etc/debian_version
9.2
cat /etc/devuan_version
jessie

Thankyou
