Happy that you got things sorted and welcome to Devuan.

#1352 Re: Documentation » [SOLVED] Synaptic mirrors? » 2021-09-15 18:21:58

sources.list info is detailed here.  Chimaera has not been released yet but you are welcome to test.  Otherwise use beowulf which is the current stable release.

Yeah, I mentioned Rufus early on.  Seems it got lost in the confusion,

I don't know about Mate but Xfce has display options in the power management settings.

@zapper . . . it would be nice if more of your responses actually contributed knowledge to Devuan . . .

Wow, you guys were mega fast in getting Devuan chimaera out...

The subject of this thread is misleading.  Chimaera has not been "officially" released yet.  Will be soon though . . .

#1359 Re: Installation » [SOLVED] USB image - Access Denied error » 2021-09-08 21:45:57

I have heard rufus mentioned a few times too.  A migration is possible https://www.devuan.org/os/install but not always trouble-free. Search the forum for discussions.

OK just searched for "Image failed to verify with ACCESS DENIED" and getting a lot of hits.

Have a look at this post: https://dev1galaxy.org/viewtopic.php?pid=30971#p30971

Since I always do legacy boot not sure it's the issue you're experiencing but doesn't hurt to mention it.

Good intentions without action bears no fruit.  He who seeks, finds.  You are most welcome to offer solutions to posts on this forum or perhaps fix a bug.  Only you know your skillset and abilities and can choose to offer them to the community.  smile

#1364 Re: Installation » Someone Removed My Bug Report » 2021-09-02 18:10:56

Yes, there is a "we" at Devuan.  That is what's makes this distro unique and powerful.

I have not touched your email or forum accounts. Neither have I suggested or encouraged action to be taken by anyone else.

#1365 Re: Installation » Someone Removed My Bug Report » 2021-08-30 17:51:35

The 502 error on bugs.d.o has been fixed. It seems that /tmp was full.

#1366 Re: Installation » Make "fresh" copy Jessie iso. » 2021-08-30 16:15:06

Just a hunch but it might be useful for you to understand how Devuan merges Debian repos with amprolla.

#1367 Re: Installation » Someone Removed My Bug Report » 2021-08-30 16:07:58

In addition, the dev who processes the bug reports rarely visits this forum and has been on holiday.

We accept your apology.  smile

#1368 Re: Installation » Network Issue With Devuan » 2021-08-29 20:46:20

@Jakoline . . .

There is a difference between what is said and what is interpreted through our mental filters.  All humans suffer from these mental distortions and sadly build  entire identities from the fictitious rationalizations and justifications generated from them.

You are only the victim of your own internal distortions and only you can heal them. Not to worry.  You have plenty of company.

Devuan is on the track that it is on. Perhaps if you had stayed around and contributed, it would now be something more suited to your needs.

It seems that you have in effect, with your dramatic departure, self-banned. As everything in life, the choice is yours so best to choose wisely.

And finally a reminder . . . less is always more.

#1369 Re: Installation » Network Issue With Devuan » 2021-08-29 15:16:10

@Jakoline . . . Your apology should be directed to the Devuan community and those who provided the information needed to correct the issue you experienced but afaik (and please correct me if I'm wrong), never attempted to implement.

#1370 Re: Installation » Network Issue With Devuan » 2021-08-28 22:07:26

Please stop stuffing this forum with nonsense or we will do it for you.

edit: Filing a Debian bug with Devuan will not get the "bug" you perceive fixed.  File it directly with Debian.

#1371 Re: Installation » Network Issue With Devuan » 2021-08-28 20:51:15

@Jakoline . . .To get back on-topic . . .

As per Head_on_a_Stick's post above, the behavior you described is present in the Debian installer so please file a bug with Debian if you would like that behavior changed.

True, though many more have seemingly just vanished.

Many have left the debian-based ecosystem entirely.  I'm hoping it can hang together in a usable state till the end of my years on this imploding rock hurtling through space and time . . .

No, it's not. forums.debian.net is logically abbreviated to FDN, always has been, always will be.

That took on a renewed importance @2012 when the previous "play nice with n00bs" policy was implemented at FDN and there was a substantial exodus from FDN to DUF aka the Debian User Forums which was only mothballed recently because  we all found other sandboxes in which to play.  Many have landed here . . .

#1374 Re: Installation » Network Issue With Devuan » 2021-08-28 16:14:56

@Jakoline . . .

FDN = Forums.Debian.Net

Feel free to move on . . .

#1375 Re: Installation » Network Issue With Devuan » 2021-08-28 15:22:13

@Jakoline . . . LOL!  Have you ever considered that perhaps it is you that is broken and useless? From your posts at FDN, I suspected your presence here would quickly become adversarial. Feel free to move on.  Byeeeeeeeeee . . .
