This is disappointing.
What if you try it by simply typing it in the terminal
xrestopIt works fine for me
#153 Re: News & Announcements » Debian and 32-bit x86 » 2023-12-21 16:55:16
Because there are 32bit systems still available.....so those old computers are still usable/useful, even if a bit slow....not everyone expects instant website access.
Totally agree with you mate.

#160 Re: Documentation » How to: Devuan 5 Daedalus an pipewire » 2023-12-04 15:54:22
Thanks, this worked well, just had to run pavucontrol to pick the correct output once and the setting was saved.
It's great to hear that everything is working as it should. By the way, I also use pavucontrol, because it's practically the easiest way to switch sound cards.
#161 Re: Installation » Desktop DVD? » 2023-12-02 11:33:15
Just navigate to Devuan Download Zone and select

Hey, any ideas about editors that a) are available for Devuan and b) have an autosave function? I mean editors for coders....
Just use Emacs.
#163 Re: Hardware & System Configuration » No sound on Gnome (Daedalus) » 2023-11-29 17:13:50
Well, I sick of GNU/Linux for today, I'll try FreeBSD and see the video games support on it.
Good luck to you then.
But I'll put in my three cents. If you can't solve the sound problem in Gnome, then FreeBSD will be even more difficult....
#164 Re: Hardware & System Configuration » No sound on Gnome (Daedalus) » 2023-11-29 12:48:25
Hello.
Just install package
pavucontroland make sound card adjustment from this program....
#165 Re: DIY » So i'm doing a netinstall and have a couple questions » 2023-11-27 17:20:26
Run the iso, I have partition already prepared, install only barebones and will install grub. Reboot. I'm assuming i'll still be able to automatically connect to internet when I re-boot to CLI of this install?
Yes, if you are connected to wired internet. If it's wireless, you'll need to go to the configuration files and configuring wireless manually.
Add these lines as a more elegant way instead of typing out instructions for apt? Good to go?
You should be more careful with these settings, because if you don't install the recommended packages, you will get cut off functionality. As an example package firejail. In this case, the recommended packages include firejail-profiles. Without this package, the functionality of firejail is severely limited. The same applies to the chromium web browser...
Then time to install programs, I have a list of about 20 to start with, but would it be better to just install Xorg, DM, WM, FM, panel, network manager and Synaptic and reboot first and do the rest from synaptic?
In this case, there is no difference... if my opinion is important to you, then that synaptics is not really necessary. In my personal opinion aptitude is better....

pavucontrol dependence pulseaudio-utils， pulseaudio-utils and pipewire-audio Install together ??
No, the pavucontrol package does not depend on pulseaudio-utils.....for pure set up with alsa, install
pipewire-audiopackage...
The
pavucontrolpackage can be useful if you want to change order of the audio cards, set your audio card as default, etc.

As far as I know, this program does not work with gmail and yandex mail. You should thank gmail's "security" policy for that.
#172 Re: Devuan Derivatives » how to add freely PPA's for firefox or seamonkey-mozilla-build? » 2023-11-13 12:19:34
PPA is not compatible with Devuan (and Debian)...
Just check this
#173 Re: Desktop and Multimedia » Strategies to deal with .xsession-errors » 2023-11-13 12:17:15
OTOH, if you don't want anything written to it, why not just 'chattr +i .xsession-errors'? That's kind of what the immutable attribute is for.
Thanks for the advice. By the way, I've noticed that when using lightdm, it automatically clears .xsession-errors after a session ends, a new file is created when a new session is started, and the old one is renamed to ..xsession-errors.old
#174 Re: Desktop and Multimedia » Strategies to deal with .xsession-errors » 2023-11-11 11:41:08
If it already happened that you ran out of disk space and using the du -k /home | sort -n | tail -5 command you were able to determine that the .xsession-errors file is the one that takes up more space, the first step to fix the problem is to empty it completely:
$ >~/.xsession-errors
Once the space is freed, you will want this situation not to be repeated again in the future. To achieve this it is best to try to find the origin of the problem, ie, to know which process is writing uncontrolled to the error log and why.
If you want to forget about this log because in normal operation you are not interested in its debugging information, you can redirect to /dev/null everything that is written to it and thus always keep a size of 0 bytes. For this you can delete the .xsession-errors file and create a symbolic link to /dev/null instead in order to get the same result:
$ rm .xsession-errors
$ ln -s /dev/null .xsession-errors
The problem is that when you restart the session the symbolic link will be replaced back by a regular file and will start to grow again. To avoid this you must add the following lines to the .bashrc in your home directory:
# If the .xsession-errors file is not a symbolic link, delete it and create it as such
if [ ! -h $HOME/.xsession-errors ]; then
/bin/rm $HOME/.xsession-errors
ln -s /dev/null $HOME/.xsession-errors
fi
