That worked. Thanks. Although this is just a temporary fix. It might get borked in the future releases.
I used this guide to install pipewire:https://dev1galaxy.org/viewtopic.php?id=5867
I checked, it actually works but xfce4-panel is late to update that. So there is an sound icon with x on it, meaning like it doesn't work. Then I do xfce4-panel -r then it works again.
How to make it so I don't have to type xfce4-panel -r everytime?
In debian there comes a window asks me "this PC wants to unlock this passphrase" there is a tick that says, save this password. I don't have it. I use ssh passphrases btw and they are not empty. Let me tell you this function works in debian. Prolly not related to systemd either. How to do this?
And no I don't wanna use empty passphrases, I didn't use empty in debian so why should I use on devuan?

This guide also applies to devuan. I used manual method. It works.
But why do this? Let's say you have 2 linux distros installed. One kernel updates, the other one doesn't update unless you log in to that and update it's grub too. This prevents this. The kernel changes are applied immediately. It boots under 7 seconds for me in SATA SSD btw.
Only one thing, if you use say like xanmod kernel, don't use the /vmlinuz and /initrd file. They are for stock kernel. That will just boot into the stock kernel. Instead do this for your kernel versions. Change the version numbers appropriately:
sudo mv /boot/initrd.img-6.5.8-x64v3-xanmod1 /boot/efi/EFI/Devuan/initrd.img
sudo mv /boot/vmlinuz-6.5.8-x64v3-xanmod1 /boot/efi/EFI/Devuan/vmlinuz
not likely, systemd-boot-efi and systemd-boot both come from the systemd source. They're not explicitly in the banned packages, but they may have broken dependencies due to systemd source and package being banned.
Edit: you can always check out banned packages here http://deb.devuan.org/bannedpackages.txt
grrr screw their developers really. Way to blow a good software like this.. Just tie it to systemd. It's not even related to systemd in any way. Why do this? I don't get it...
It was called gummiboot before. I don't know why they added it to the systemd. Anyway, is it possible to install that?
It's the winehq version of wine for debian. I had wine installed already but devuan's wine has problems. Doesn't work properly. So I install winehq version.
$ sudo apt install wine-stable

Nvidia 535 too much problems yet. Even for windows. Too much problems on latest games. Better go for 525 for a while.
Interesting that is, KDE Wayland works with nvidia. With small tinkering. But gnome still doesn't work. In gnome, also inxi -F doesn't work in terminal properly. It just stops. Very weird behaviour.
How do you even run wayland? No apps work on me on wayland, no firefox, chromium, brave. Even neofetch or inxi on terminal doesn't work.
I actually have 4GB RAM only. But I don't use RAM that much, I think it's that systemd uses more CPU rather than RAM. I have half the RAM empty most of the time.
I want to do this: sudo systemctl disable bluetooth, this disables bluetooth at boot. But I want it for sysvinit. How to do this?
I have this celeron n3050. Technically it's statistically harder to say on newer hardware if devuan is better or not. Because margins are smaller. Let's say i7 10.th gen, it's already too fast CPU. Devuan would only be faster like 30miliseconds and you can't know it.
But since this CPU is crappy, I can say devuan is much much faster. This CPU is even worse than core 2 duo laptops from 2008. Mind you it works terribly slow even on debian. For example, scrolling on reddit, on something like ebay? Terribly slow. But with devuan this laptop rocks. Much much faster. Linux mint is shit compared to this. Devuan shines on older hardware I can say that with confidence. I mean ebay is much faster what else can I ask for?
I have plenty of space, only gdm3 doesn't work. I reinstalled slim, then logged in succesfully. Tried gdm3 again, still can't login. Something wrong with GDM3. Slim works even with gnome.
Okay thanks I did id <username> thing and readded my user to all that groups. Marking as solved.
I've read in archlinux subreddit that it has solved archlinux's many problems. That's why they adopted it. In the most upvoted answer here: https://www.reddit.com/r/archlinux/comm … e_systemd/
So is it like better of the two devils situation here? I actually like sysvinit better, but let's not call a spade a spade, is systemd that bad?
Everything is gone... No desktop. I installed them back, now login loop. Can't login to my user. What to do now?
I have atom D525 CPU NAS. It used to have jellyfin installed while on devuan 4. I think it was standalone jellyfin install, not flatpak. But it was working perfectly, the playback on movies was not slow or anything. It was good enough. But on devuan 5 I installed it as a flatpak. It's extremely slow on media playback. Like really slow. Mind you when I connect to this machine via sftp and play videos with mpv it's extremely fast. How to solve this? It keeps stopping every 3 seconds, can't watch anything at all.
UPDATE: I removed flatpak version and installed version for debian bookworm instead. I still have problems but it seems it's only problematic for H265 videos, H264's work fine.
Do I need to add it back to it's user group?
Only for firefox this works. No other apps work on wayland gnome. This works for firefox:
Add MOZ_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1 into /etc/environment. This way only firefox will work. Chromium, libreoffice, nothing else will work.Also, I tried to check if my drivers were working on wayland, I write inxi -G on terminal, it doesn't output anything.. Also some CLI apps broke aswell.
My specs are:
Intel i5 4460
AMD RX580
16GB DDR3 RAM
Anyway still no wayland in slim.
Slim doesn't support wayland sessions...
Well I used the script, the script said select slim so I did. Hmm ok, I tried to change to GDM3 but system froze when trying to open gdm3 instead. I tried with sudo service gdm3 start, it froze.
I migrated from debian to devuan today, as you released devuan 5.0 stable, it works however with the guy's script. Anyway still no wayland in slim. I select gnome option, no wayland. Other options are gnome on xorg so...
I got a RX580, I installed the AMD drivers too, by adding non-free-firmware. When I inxi -G I see amdgpu drivers. So there is the wayland option, but when you open a browser, it looks like it's going to open, but nothing happens. Xorg works fine.
I am trying to migrate from bookworm the daedalus actually, which it didn't work.
