Perhaps you need to install sane-airscan.

Everyone makes their own choice about what is important.
I jumped off github when I learnt they sold out to Microsoft.

Beware! That's still on github

I really would like people to put just a little bit of thought into how their posts may reflect on them, before posting.

Yes we don't want AI output copied to here at all.

Feeling insecure about language or whatever is not an excuse: No AI output copied to here.

We are all grown-ups; a range of ages, from very old and down to quite young. Just show respect for everyone's language ability.

If the limitation is on "number of requests" you might want to try using socks5 tunneling over tcp, to a socks server... I can probably provide you with one such (on email) if you like.

Yes, one does not need to select any of those options. They are all "extra". But the dialog flow includes installing unmentioned default components, and the dialog must be ok-ed for that to happen.

Thus, one must bring up that dialog and click ok, even though one may opt for not picking any of the pickable additions.

Yes, the Devuan wiki attempt is abysmal. It's certainly far from ready for fly-by contributions. It will take someone with editorial interest and commitment to get involved and make soemthing happen.

So where did you go wrong in your study of turnstile?
It's not a login manager and it doesn't provide any root services.
Iit merely runs user scripts as user.

No, turnstile does not "handle login sessions". It gets notified about login and logout happening, and then it runs (or terminates) user scripts qua the user (not as root). I think it'd be much less of a hacker's attraction than, say, dbus, since turnstile is very well contained in what it does.

But for sure, there are many other ways for users to run programs, and there is no real need for a system to have a turnstile daemon to manage running them with "session control". I agree on that aspect

EDIT: btw, which thread title would you set?

Yes, I wouldn't have mentioned it otherwise.

In my experience the packaged turnstile daemon is quite stable and safe. The package default backend, despite its name "suss", also works quite well. (I haven't explored the other backends) It provides a reliable "user service" process control including both one-shot actions and session-based services.

The expected "normal" use is straight-foward. A user that wants many services with start-up inter-dependencies may of course need to design that start-up somewhat carefully.

In short: a good option.

@igorzwx: I don't understand what you mean with that "warning"? Have you been using it and ran into issues?
