Hi

Gparted is not installed by default. Can be done by "apt install gparted". Google earth works in my firefox browser. I do not have a scanner anymore but try to look here https://askubuntu.com/questions/1038557 … ct-scanner.

Su has changed from just "su" to "su -" to get full access. This is covered in the release notes as well as a lot of other commonthing

To setup your network we need to know a liltel about your setup. But be patient. And google might be your friend

Have a nice day

Hi

Sorry to hear things messed up. You can off course also chroot into the system to see what is happening. But sometimes the a reinstall of the whole thing is the fastest and simplest solution. And in the process I am sure you will know much more.

Hopefully you will get things up and running. But I have seen that bumblebee often causes trouble. And with a new machine it is even more so.

Best wishes

Hi

Now I do not have a similar configuration to test. But according to https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Bumblebee you will have to disable nvidia-persistenced.service so the nvidia card can be turned off and on when needed (the whole idea behind bumblebee). If  it works then you were indeed right yourself about what was the problem ;-))

Hej

Du får det på dansk. Du skal ikke kun skrive su men "su -" ellers har du kun adgang til bruger rettigeheder ikke login som root.

Hello

Written in danish. To get full root access you need to write not just "su" but "su -"

Hi

I would suggest you to try with the debian installer (netinstall Iso). The reason is I know it works with encryption on multiple disks, as well as a auto lvm+encryption on one disk. I am using encryption myself without any problems on multiple disks. It might be a bug or problem with the refracta installer. I haven't tried it because I can do anything I want (and a lot more) with the netinstall which I know from around 100 installs of debian, and is among the most flexible out there.

Hi

Devuan is based on Debian. The goal of Devuan is to be free of systemd in order to let people decide which init system to use. That is why libsystemd0 is an empty package. The other goal is to keep things simple (it means not to maintain to many packages). It is in the mind of the developers of apt (which of course is from debian and ubuntu) that the decisions of what apt should depend upon is taking place. I am sure you can find more information on debians apt-devel mailing list. It will be a lot of work with no practical benefit to remove the empty systemd0 package. If it easy to do without removing a lot of packages I am sure it was already done.

I hope this answer was helpfull

Hi

libsystemd0 is the one part of systemd it is allmost impossible to avoid being based on debian. But it does not matter. You are still not using systemd for anything practical. But removing this little library would be a huge task with no practical benefit (except avoiding using it).

Hi

As a newcomer to Devuan (one month) I will say thank you for this wonderful and well made distribution, with a lot of friendly people and nice community. I am sure I will stay here for quite a while.

Have a nice day

Hi

Does alsamixer in a terminal work

To get pulseaudio to work you need according to the Release Notes do the following:

Pulseaudio
- If you have no sound, make sure the following line in
   /etc/pulse/client.conf.d/00-disable-autospawn.conf is commented as
   shown here:

   #autospawn=no

Thank you

I was as well unaware of this step. Now my problems with updating apt sources is gone as well (for installing I am using aptitude, for upgrading apt)

Have a nice day

Hi fsmithred

In gentoo you can build firefox wwith support for jackd. So you should be able to do it by compiling it yourself.
