It's done folks and not going to change (much).

Why change, I like it!  Really it is only a start, and will be changed very soon after installing - just like blackhole said.

It's more than the desktop.  It is grub and slim/lightdm and website(s) and installer banner and icons yada, yada.  There will be no escaping it.  big_smile

It's always best to enter the error message into a search engine:

why do you think I didn't do that ?

Obviously, because you didn't say you did.  A proper answer requires a question containing all relevant information.  IOW, you get what you ask for.

@golinux  FWIW here are a couple of sites that help with color palettes....

You've got to be kidding.  I have never found a generated color palette that didn't suck.  Why?  Because choosing colors by some mathematical formula just doesn't work in the real world. Why?  Because colors are relative to the other colors that are proximate and only the human eye can see that.

That's Western reductionist thinking on steroids - thinking not actually seeing.

I used cinnabar colors for Beowulf.  That crimson pigment (which is quite toxic) was very popular in the Renaissance.

#1607 Re: Devuan » Meet Chimaera's deepsea theme » 2020-10-23 02:08:57

There has never been a brown theme.  That was Ubuntu.

I think you would understand the Chimaera colors if you have this bit of info - my inspiration.

This is the last time I am putting myself through this ordeal.  Someone else is going to have to step up to do the next ones.

chimaera grub

chimaera slim

chimaera lightdm

chimaera desktop

chimaera openbox

Finally, have the Chimaera deepsea theme together.  Am now getting all the other parts in place.  Enjoy your dive to the deepsea floor!

I have never seen a sources.list that looked like that.  Maybe have a look at https://devuan.org/os/packages

I have heard that the new kernel is really messed up.  And dbus is  . . . well . . .

That's just Google being its usual silly and sucking up to its pals.

No.  It's his spellchecker.  I still get red squiggles because I have never bothered to add that word.

#1614 Re: Other Issues » Xsane Image doesn't detect my scanner » 2020-10-17 16:54:51

Have you looked in ascii backports?  Might not need to upgrade to beowulf.

It is your spellchecker that is objecting to Devuan. Just add that word and the red squiggle will go away.

I did not change the mirror,  I just selected the br mirror.
My question is: is there any security risk?

No.  The mirrors are just rsync copies of pkgmaster.devuan.org

#1624 Re: Other Issues » Strange mirror? » 2020-09-26 19:38:02

. . . a specific mirror from the list can be accessed using the corresponding BaseURL

This from the mirror list:

FQDN:  devuan.c3sl.ufpr.br
BaseURL:  devuan.c3sl.ufpr.br
Bandwidth:  20Gb/s
Rate:  1h
Country:  Brazil
CountryCode:  BR
Protocols:  HTTP | RSYNC
Active:  Yes
DNSRR:  yes

I think this BaseURL needs to be in sources.list not the country code (which devuan is not set up to understand):  devuan.c3sl.ufpr.br

#1625 Re: Other Issues » Strange mirror? » 2020-09-26 18:41:39

Country codes are not available in Devuan.  This from the website:

Devuan has a network of package repository mirrors in place. The mirror network is accessible using the FQDN “deb.devuan.org” via http NOT https. Country Codes (CC) are currently unavailable but a specific mirror from the list can be accessed using the corresponding BaseURL.
