I use palemoon for my current browsing needs. Also I'm enjoying playing around with surf 0.7-2 (ascii repo) and surf2 2.0-5 (ascii experimental). Surf is using libwebkitgtk-3.0-0 and surf2 uses libwebkit2gtk-4.0-37.
I find that I cannot zoom-in on surf2 but can on surf.
I find I can play youtube videos on surf2 but not on surf.
If I can find a way to zoom-in on surf2 I would have both. Tried ctrl-shift-+ ctrl-shift-k ctrl+
I can zoom-out on either app using ctrl-
I would be interested in surf2 related info mostly or just opinions of surf2.
*****Just to update. I downloaded surf-2.0 from suckless.org. Also,tabbed-0.6. I compiled(new to compiling as I failed ,mostly, before).
The most helpful info for surf was found on steve litt's site. Troubleshooters.com His article Surf Demystified was very helpful.
My thanks to Steve. I'll be keeping palemoon and surf for now.

It was fun to try other browsers but Palemoon works very well for my use case. On Jessie or Ascii.
I believe I'll stick with Palemoon.
#84 Re: DIY » The hunt for a good browser 2017 edition » 2017-11-04 15:55:03
uzbl browser? uses webkit according to wikipedia. I installed it and was pretty confused but you might find it interesting.
After a little bit more effort...
This is interesting to play with. I can't get youtube videos to play on this or other webkit browser.Palemoon works for videos. Uzbl uses mostly keyboard but is configurable . If there is a fairly simple fix for video on webkit based browser on ascii-let me know. However I am a simple user not a coder so...

Works on jessie for me after installing python-webkit. Ascii I,m not finding that pkg yet.
Look forward to trying it further on jessie though.
#88 Re: Devuan » About Devuan » 2017-09-23 13:40:35
I am optimistic. Stable was released in late May. Ascii soon to follow. Instant gratification is foolish to expect.
I suspect fud is at work here.

#90 Re: Other Issues » ascii/lxqt wifi address change » 2017-08-21 00:09:34
Very much to the point of my issue. I do follow the mailing list- just a little after the fact in this case. I still wonder why it was not an immediate problem but took several reboots to show up.
* thanks for the link.

Playing with ascii/lxqt install and for my use it's pretty good. So I decided to install eudev and the install went smoothly using synaptic with experimental repo temporarily enabled. ON reboot all appeared normal. A few more reboots and wifi was not connecting.
Short story is address was no longer wlan0. Now wlxc83a35c261fd. (used ip list command someone helpful mentioned somewhere to get address) I don't know what does this or why it did'nt happen immediately on eudev install. Just thought I would share in case someone could enlighten me or be enlightened with the information.

On my test computer with devuan ascii I've been replacing Mate with lxqt de and ran across juffed text editor. I suspect it is not old since it is in ascii but not jessie.Anyway I find it much to my liking so far and mention here only as an option if you had not heard of it.
*probably only new to me.
#93 Re: DIY » Nasty local hacks, the definitive and not-official Devuan list » 2017-07-13 14:27:01
Thought it would be good to keep a list of packages I usually have to install (and forget the names of) after a fresh installation of an os. Then I figured why not a script to install instead?
My pkginstall.sh
#!/bin/bash
#
#Install most likely desired packages.
#Run as root in terminal.
apt-get update && apt-get install firejail gtkorphan gdebi guvcview claws-mail-fancy-plugin dconf-editor pastebinit hexchat
exit 0Of course all my pkg choices can change as I (or anyone) chooses. This is pretty basic but someone might find it handy.
*Though most of these posts are way over my head I really like this thread and enjoy the info.TY
#94 Re: DIY » Environment to port Debian (or other) to Devuan » 2017-07-05 18:33:00
Be careful if you take a long time to write a post. Sometimes posts go 'missing' when it's time to post if you're not cookied with the 'stay logged in' option.
Probably good to know-mentioned by Golinux in a different post. Not sure if it applies here.

#96 Re: Desktop and Multimedia » Devuan popcon in ascii » 2017-06-26 19:15:22
If you install from one of the desktop-live isos, you should delete /etc/popularity-contest.conf before running the installer. That way, you will get a unique number and we get more meaningful statistics. To correct it after installing, delete the file and then run 'dpkg-reconfigure popularity-contest'.
I have no need for great paranoia so I re-enabled. Thanks for info (and instructions) people.
#97 Re: Desktop and Multimedia » Devuan popcon in ascii » 2017-06-25 16:02:45
Can anyone speak of any security risks of enabling popcon? On stable mainly.

Thanks for the reminder. I just enabled popcon and hope the devuan vua's find the results helpful.
