"I once rolled my very own distro, with LFS and RPM. It was entertaining to be sure, and infinitely customisable..."
It's really cool, kudos!
Unfortunately, at the time when it was in vogue, my dial-up internet did not allow it.

As for the rest, in my opinion there are two views on the computer. Either he is a tool for work, or it is in itself the subject of this very work.

In the first case, today there is no need to fix package dependencies, the size of the system is much smaller than user files. To some extent, the number of running services matters, but security is also not in last place.

And in the second, of course, it’s interesting to dig deeper, even for a simple user, to break something, then read the manuals and ask on the forums. And in the end, spit and reinstall. smile

Designing a User Interface is not an easy task. Seriously, they were taken care of by Microsoft back in the days of MS3xx. Once, even the confession of one of the developers came across on the net that a program was embedded in MS Office that sends information about the frequency of clicking on menu items. This was taken into account for the optimal arrangement of items in the menu. Users didn't know about it, of course.
Who can afford such development costs? smile

Therefore, we see copies of MCs performed by "improvers to your taste." Everyone has different tastes and tasks, and this is the result.

Our choice of the minimum DU ends when we run the application program (otherwise why do we need a computer?). Today the browser "weighs" more than WinXP on my computer once. smile
And the search for the "holy grail", for me at least, is an undertaking without much sense.
$10...30 invested in hardware will achieve much more noticeable results.

As I understand Linux, you are looking in the wrong place. smile
The GUI is provided by DE.
I use Trinity and it has literally everything to configure, from user management, sysinit system services to interface language and package management.
The same is in KDE5, probably in others.

I’m here to know something new and to talk about Devuan

A month ago, a Russian missile hit a house a kilometer away from me, where a family of 4 lived. The body of a girl, about the same age, was found on the roof of a neighboring house.
Your  Konashenkov reported that some headquarters had been hit.

"You nailed it . . ."
Well, okay. smile
Let's leave politics and "isms" aside.
There are two points here.
1. The rating of the site is determined by the number of clicks, and using the promoted site to advertise your newly created one is a well-known trick.
2. Devuan is missing out on opportunities. I can give an example of another distribution, on the forum of which there are separate sections for foreign-speaking users.
What is good, I think it is clear to everyone.

You are just being used. smile

"A well-meaning dude walks into a bar free-software community to share his contribution..."
Yes, he comes in and invites you into a mousetrap ...
But I do not care.

#607 Re: Intergalactic Communities » devuan.ru - russian-speaking community of GNU/Linux Devuan » 2022-11-18 17:24:59

It's a personal matter, of course.
Just keep in mind that the Internet in Russia is completely under the control of the state and special services. In particular, Yandex.
Everything is tied to the phone, and it is tied to the passport, otherwise the SIM card will not be sold.
Even more "democratic", probably, only in North Korea.

#608 Re: Intergalactic Communities » devuan.ru - russian-speaking community of GNU/Linux Devuan » 2022-11-18 13:38:09

That's absolutely right!
And the West also bred wild geese in Ukraine, which pooped on the heads of the Russians, and now they have taken on military mosquitoes! smile smile smile

RussiaToday in all its glory!

#609 Re: Desktop and Multimedia » Can you suggest some tips and tricks for speed up Devuan? » 2022-11-17 08:35:37

The last thing I would like to do is advertise a distribution.
I just want to remind my colleagues of the ancient optimization algorithm, it began with the assembly of the kernel for specific conditions and user desires.

Here's an example, today there are modules in the kernel waiting for apparmor and tomoyo.
I have neither one nor the other, why load them into the kernel?
But I've already played enough in the compilation ...

These are emotions (my experience of forums since 2005).
By registering, we agree with the rules of the hosts, we don’t like it, what prevents us from creating our own and commanding? smile

But seriously, here is the size of the vmlinuz kernel 5.18xxx
OpenSuse 15.3 ( systemd )  10.1MB
Devuan 7.2 MB
PCLinuxOS 6.1 MB.

In addition to everything suggested above, I can only add turning off rsyslog.
But the result of 1 ... 2% cannot be compared, for example, with the result when replacing a hard drive with the cheapest SSD.

If from the very beginning, then from the "--help" key for almost any console program.
And for "man" as well. smile

#612 Re: Desktop and Multimedia » Can you suggest some tips and tricks for speed up Devuan? » 2022-11-15 20:08:48

If we talk about the speed of different releases without systemd, then subjectively, the fastest, with the same version of DE , PCLinuxOS works for me.

It's not a competitor to Devuan, just a roling release, a rollback is possible if you took a snapshot before the update, but all the latest innovations appear in the repo immediately.

In general, if you are bored, it is quite possible to try. smile

Try specifying the full path to the program /usr/sbin/dpkg-reconfigure

#615 Re: Devuan Derivatives » Install Exe GNU/Linux. » 2022-11-13 08:57:23

They should be removed on exit.
I moved the directory to tmpfs.

Perhaps the problem is only in Exe GNU/Linux.
I solved this problem simply by moving it to tmpfs (SSD will be less degraded).

#617 Re: Devuan Derivatives » Install Exe GNU/Linux. » 2022-11-11 16:29:03

Since installation, over 100 files have accumulated in the ~/.bus /session-bus folder.
What needs to be "twisted" so that they themselves are removed?

#618 Re: Other Issues » "Temporary failure resolving 'deb.devuan.org' " » 2022-11-09 13:56:36

If you go from http://deb.rr.devuan.org/ to mirror_status.html and then from this page, you can see the apt-panopticon results page report.
There's a lot about the state of the mirror network.

#619 Re: Other Issues » Recovery after a badly failed update » 2022-11-07 20:15:19

Not quite a traditional option.
I would create another 15...20 GB partition on the nVME disk and install Chimera there.
After installation, you can move the /home directory Chimera to an SSD drive, fix the installed Beowulf, etc.

Presently my main motivation for relaxing in Peropesis is to learn some network configuration.
Debian is fine although ifconfig and route on the netinstall would be nice amongst other things, I suppose bzip2 would be asking too much I know it's about security, Red Hat Fedora has become a questionable puzzle, Peropesis is based on a general filesystem hierarchy standard, has ifconfig and route, wpa_supplicant and wpa_passphrase, dhcpd.
And finally, iw.
Time for me to learn some iw as I aborted first time, found it a pain in the bottom.
Does anybody like iw, got anything interesting to say about it.

The network can also be configured using iw.
For me, the question is different.
Two of my computers (desktop and netbook) have wi-fi connection. I'm using trinity which has a forwarded network manager. The TDENetworkManager applet shows the signal strength as in a mobile phone. So, to change this level to full, sometimes it is enough to move the desktop antenna by 10 cm.
But, of course, it's a matter of our personal choice.
And for learning the newest, I can recommend pclinuxos. A wonderful distribution kit, works out of the box, with all the "charms" of a rolling release without the possibility of a rollback.

Regards.

I am a user, not a programmer, for me it is "dancing with a tambourine". smile
"You can't use ] to mark the end of a range of characters. But if the range designator is preceded by /, then ] is the end of the range."
Example in the screenshot, after entering the first command with / nothing happens, but there is a file with square brackets next.
This property disappears after the computer is restarted.

Edit.
The 1.txt file on the desktop was specially renamed to 1[1].txt and the example is exactly the same file name.

It's more psychology than politics, scandal is the best way to attract attention.
And the rest ... under Truman, the "Marxists", who tried to terrorize the United States, were loaded onto a steamer and sent to Russia, so beloved by them. But for some reason, from the very beginning, they fled from there to the West.
The dirtiest place in Europe in the 70s was the Donetsk region of Ukraine, there was no smell of the "capitalist" spirit of production there.
