FWIW . . . I get to bios with F12. Depends on the MB . . . .

Right click on the "tab" bar and tick the box for the menu bar.

#829 Re: Installation » Devuan 5 daedalus gnome wayland doesn't work with nvidia » 2023-08-14 21:06:31

Daedalus release is in progress atm so might be best to avoid accessing repositories until all servers are in sync . . .

#830 Re: Installation » Devuan 5 daedalus gnome wayland doesn't work with nvidia » 2023-08-14 16:32:42

What exactly do you mean by "couldn't remove systemd at all"? Perhaps THIS?

#831 Re: Devuan » Is the Devuan servers currently down or in maintenance? » 2023-08-13 18:13:23

Is you sources.list configured according to the recommendations HERE? It could also be a transient issue when a server is upgrading. Try again . . .

#832 Re: Installation » [SOLVED] Can't get wifi runing on raspberry pi 4 » 2023-08-08 20:14:16

Are you aware that there are images specifically for raspberry pi 4 HERE?

Yes and yes. Not many Devuan users use pulseaudio which is why a response might be slow. I have never had it installed. Please be patient.

LinuxNews here. The 'nonsense' did not come from me. Please complain at https://repology.org/project/systemd/versions. Thank you.

Oh . . . but it did! News "sources" have an obligation to verify information before blabbing about it. Passing the buck is not an excuse for not doing your homework. Sadly, such journalistic practices are common these days. Truth is the casualty . . .

#837 Re: Devuan » Why are systemd files present in Devuan? » 2023-08-01 21:18:54

Thanks for standing up to correct a misconception about Devuan, jue-gen!  Please do make it a habit to do so wherever you see such nonsense. Feels good, doesn't it!? big_smile

#838 Re: Devuan » Why are systemd files present in Devuan? » 2023-08-01 20:13:44

If not you, who? Don't you want to be part of the solution?

#839 Re: Forum Feedback » Unable to insert into list » 2023-07-29 13:37:58

Yes, the response times on this forum have been absolutely abysmal the past few days.

#840 Re: Installation » Can't tape my login/password » 2023-07-23 21:36:42

Why on earth would you "upgrade" from daedalus (currently in testing) to "ceres" aka "sid" (unstable)?

Please have a look at https://www.devuan.org/os/releases to familiarize yourself with Devuan releases.

#841 Re: Devuan » Interest in reproducible builds of Devuan? Devuan is 46% reproducibe! » 2023-07-20 16:27:13

@jas . . . Packaging is way above my paygrade but perhaps this would help sort your confusion about how Devuan packages are built?

#842 Re: Devuan Derivatives » a good and a bad new for the Devuan community » 2023-07-18 21:15:44

The folks at Devuanpup "Daedalus" woof-ce are welcome to post to our derivatives section and interact with Devuan users. If it is well-received, it will be added to the official derivatives list. We do appreciate your letting us know about Devuanpup but someone actually working on the project should be talking directly to us if they want that to happen.

I try my best to understand what you are trying to communicate but it is not easy so apologies for any misunderstanding. I have probably missed the mark again with this post.  Sigh . . .

#843 Re: Devuan » We need to big up Devuan Live » 2023-07-17 20:47:13

Thanks fsmithred . . .

/me who has never used pulseaudio  goes to sit in a corner . . . roll

#844 Re: Devuan Derivatives » a good and a bad new for the Devuan community » 2023-07-17 17:53:01

Please take your rant upstream to Debian. We are Debian without systemd. Period.

Or . . . here's a thought . . . create what you envision yourself and gift it to the world!

#845 Re: Devuan » We need to big up Devuan Live » 2023-07-17 17:47:01

Devuan does not add new goodies and tools to what Debian provides. We only deal with systemd and related feature creep that would break said purpose.

Maybe replacing Slim (deprecated) by LightDM helps?

AFAIK Slim is still alive and well and installed with the default Xfce desktop but it does lack some features that are provided LightDM.

@amaro . . . This is news? This has always been the way with humans or chatbots created in the image of their creators. Totally predictable and unsurprising . . .
