fnfxd is still installed.

When I attempt to remove it or I install other packages (e.g. apt-file), I get the following responses:

The following dialogue window is displayed:

After closing the above window, the Changes applied dialogue window appears and the following details are output:

After closing the Changes applied window, fnfxd is still marked with an icon indicating "Marked for complete removal".

Should I attempt to run the modprobe and lsmod commands with the fnfxd package in this state?

Thanks!!

$ modprobe toshiba_acpi produced the following output:

$ sudo modprobe toshiba_acpi produced nothing.

I am working on is the 32-bit version of Devuan.

It has 3 files in the /boot directory as follows:

config-6.1.0-10-686-pae
config-6.1.0-27-686-pae
config-6.1.0-28-686-pae

All 3 report the same results as follows:

What does the m value represent?

Can it be changed to y?

Thanks!!

Thanks! I installed gnome-system-tools as mate-user-admin would have wanted to install the mate desktop too.

Now I need an applet for Screen Brightness that uses xrandr.

Would it be safe it use MX Tweak from MX Linux 23.4?

There is no slider presented with neither Devuan 5 nor MX Linux 23.4 on the Toshiba Tecra A7 (2006) using xfce4 power-manager.

MX Linux has a Tweak tool that includes a brightness slider using xrandr which works.

I had tried using the arandr app but it didn't have any interface for brightness control.

Using xfce4 power-manager with Devuan 5 on the Dell Latitude E6530 does present a Slider control for adjusting the brightness. Hmmmm.

I used Synaptic and it marked all the required dependencies for installation too.

During the installation process, I was also prompted with a Dialogue Window to select which Display Manager (DM) was to be active. slim was already selected as it was the current one. So, I selected lightdm which was at the top of the list.

I then edited the lightdm.conf file.

I rebooted the Laptop et voila lightdm was the active DM.

Thanks!! again, MTB.

I prefer using Synaptic because it maintains a History of installations which is useful if you need to return to a previous configuration.

What I should have included is where do you look to see the change in 'Label' value from 'Devuan Security' to 'Devuan-Security' for example?

Thanks!!

So, I used the command

sudo apt-get update --allow-releaseinfo-change

and the Warning Message, regarding the Repository Indexes, is no longer displayed.

However, before I did that, I reloaded the Package Information and this time only the Note about daedalus-security appeared as above in Post  #62.

What would have caused the other 2 Notes to no longer be displayed?

How is it that the Suite and Label values were changed and how can you confirm that the changes are legitimate?

I tried searching man pages but couldn't find what effects are established with the use of the "--allow-releaseinfo-change" option. Is this information recorded in a file of the OS too?

So Folks, the Intel Boot Agent message hasn't appeared since installing the 500GB 7200RPM drive and installing Devuan 5 on it.

Boots Fast I guess; gets to the User Name screen in about 1 minute and after the password is entered about another 20 seconds for the Desktop to finish loading. Is that good?

The screen seems to be better quality than the one in the Lenovo L540 and its 16:10 which is much more useful for consuming vertical content.

That must be a feature of newer BIOS/UEFI systems. This Laptop has a BIOS from 2006.

I will try editing the adjtime file.
