Hi

Have you looked at the link vlax has in his post above yours. To solve your problem you must be more specific about what you have done, your hardware and goal.

Hi

The problem 20 years from now, will be to find something that play a DVD or Bluray. Remember tapedrives (still used when reliability is important) and Floppys. Maybe a portable ssd might still be supported. And probably tapes still as well ;-). But what format ???

Hi

Yes it should be supported by the Nouveau driver . You can try a live ISO to check it out.

Hi again

With the above reasons Devuan is not meant for you. So go and look somewhere else. Stop trolling, please.

#57 Re: Devuan » Debian has fallen. What now? » 2020-09-21 17:12:21

Hi

Please relax just a bit ,-)). The world is not going to an end just yet. If you have something to tell, then tell it. Stop accusing and behave friendly please. Devuan is doing what it is doing just fine. And people who uses and support it are friendly to each other.

Have a nice day

#58 Re: Devuan » Looking for a new system » 2020-09-21 17:06:21

Hi

No it is not. There are some empty packages for directing calls to the relevant non systemd packages. Where are you looking. I look here https://pkginfo.devuan.org/cgi-bin/d1pk … e=chimaera .

#59 Re: Desktop and Multimedia » Removing XFCE after installing MATE » 2020-09-20 19:45:43

Hi

You can also use tasksel as root to reset and change the install to a default state. It works very well at least in debian.

#60 Re: Other Issues » [SOLVED] ceres repos "stuck" ? » 2020-09-17 07:22:38

Hi

My mistake. but there are python2 and python3. My suggestion is to make sure both are installed. Later in the development proces python2 might be removed.

Yes. To be aware and have some knowledge is sometimes required. Now it upgrades python as well :-)

Hi

Yes ifup and ifdown does work if /etc/network/interfaces are properly configured.

This is what I use after "upgrading" to Chiamaera.

#66 Re: Desktop and Multimedia » Beowulf crashes often » 2020-09-11 07:13:48

Hi

Have you tried with the backports kernel and drivers. It is quite wellknown that kernel 4.19 is a bit to old to support Ryzen 2700X. And there have been reported numerous problems with that should be solved by now.

Have a nice day

#67 Re: Desktop and Multimedia » amdgpu-pro drivers » 2020-09-07 16:54:23

Hi

Just looking into gentoo-handbook. ATM they are still using open-rc as init manager. But they do have systemd stage 3 for those who prefer or need that (for gnome among other things).

#68 Re: Desktop and Multimedia » Devuan-Beowulf Resolution, 4k-monitor, 10-bit. » 2020-09-04 19:03:11

Hi

Have you tried with a more recent kernel from backports "apt -t beowulf-backports linux-image-amd64". And maybe do the same with firmware-amd-graphics. This support much more recent hardware than the default 4.19 kernel (late 2018 if i remember).

#69 Re: Desktop and Multimedia » HDMI no sound » 2020-08-25 18:44:15

Hi

Does your TV have an onboard D/A-converter. Some TV may have it others not (all modern computer monitors do have it). If your TV do not have a D/A- converter it cannot make sound via HDMI. If it have worked previosuly then it is a setup problem. But you might need to use audio-cable from speaker-output to get sound.

#71 Re: Other Issues » [SOLVED] mpv (0.29.1-1) dependent on python 2.7 » 2020-08-20 14:49:54

Hi

Do never mix versions and distributions. Until chimera becomes stable it will receive no security updates. But it is a rolling distribution until then (the last months before release it will not have new packages and versions either, that is how to make it stable). Read more here https://www.debian.org/releases/testing/ You cant have everything you want. Either stable with older and very stable packages, or testing/unstable with newer but less tested packages.

#72 Re: Installation » Network and other problems after upgrading from ascii to beowulf » 2020-08-20 14:42:25

Hi

Now I am not the most experienced expert in this, as I only using one machine and not trying to fix things that are not broken ;-)). Just tried it once with devuan and a couple of times in gentoo. What I would do was checking services running with "service networking status"  and "service connman status". Then disable them, reboot, and enable them again with network first and connman after that. And I would use "the service blabla enable" command for that. As far I know it is the recommended way to do it (except for manually making the links)

Hope this is to some help ;-))

Have a nice day

#73 Re: Other Issues » [SOLVED] mpv (0.29.1-1) dependent on python 2.7 » 2020-08-20 14:01:05

Hi

Sounds good. There should be no problems running the stable kernel (except for security but there is no support for that with chimera yet). But is linux-iamge-amd64 installed on your system. If not it does explain the missing upgrade ;-))

#74 Re: Installation » Network and other problems after upgrading from ascii to beowulf » 2020-08-20 13:55:47

Hi

It should. But if you did make a mistake it does not work. FYI My install does not have sysv-rc-conf installed by default. So I am using the old ways to set or delete symlinks (service blabla enable/disable). Is sysv-rc-conf broken in some way in beowulf ??

Have a nice day

#75 Re: Installation » Network and other problems after upgrading from ascii to beowulf » 2020-08-20 11:39:42

Hi

Hi no. 1 Is connman added to your startup. If not use "update-rc.d connman enable" to add it.

No 4. The behavior of logging in as root has changed. So you have to use "su -" to login with full path. This to prevent the root user to damage the system on purpose. I find this myself a bit stupid. But so be it

Thats what I can help with for now

Have a nice day
