golinux, make sure you rest as well. That was a big trip and a full weekend!

I'm in Boston with Greg atm but headed back to the airport in a few hours. I'm so delighted to to able to catch up, I may just stay up all night (flight leaves at 5:45 am). Saw your post and have stickied it. Thanks for doing that.
Thanks for doing this. Eventually all those segments will be edited and posted individually so stay tuned.
I like the Beowulf theme. Looks good enough for daily use to me
Thanks. ![]()

golinux I added it Katolaz' original announcement thread. https://dev1galaxy.org/viewtopic.php?pid=15397#p15397
Or do you want it to be its own sticky/thread?
PS: working on day 2 now.
I think it should be its own sticky but you can also leave in the other threads. Unfortunately I may not be back online to sticky it for a day or so - I do not own a mobile device so can only work through the dyne HQ which limits my online time and will be in the airport much of the next days.

That's the way I like it, baby.
You may find yourself sitting in a corner . . .
I had some time on my hands tonight:
Devuan 1st Conference 2019, Day one, planet Earth, Amsterdam:
Katolaz: The Quests for Minimalism
https://youtu.be/I7qE43KK5bY?t=1881Laurent Bercot: Demystifying Init
https://youtu.be/I7qE43KK5bY?t=7622Jaromil and parazyd: Git, Devuan SDK, package builds, Building Devuan
https://youtu.be/I7qE43KK5bY?t=17054
https://devuan.org/os/distro-kitfsmithred: How to make your own Linux distribution (could also be a demonstration that abiword actually works)
https://youtu.be/I7qE43KK5bY?t=22497Oh and Miyo in the live chat.....
golinux, we could make this a sticky somewhere, or make it "prettier" for the website....
Thank you for doing this ChuangTzu. Everything will be posted to the website once it is edited. If you have the time, please post this list in the announcements section and I can sticky it next time I'm here. I made one small correction to the list. KatolaZ' talk is "The Quests for Minimalism" - plural - because there are many ways to get there.
The atmosphere here is amazing. I think that the brainpower collected in that room could light the city of Amsterdam!
Edit: I see that Fredd has the title singular on the video. Will ask him to change that.
I would not like to have to lock this thread so please get it together . . . HOAS you are the odd man out here.
I'm sure that it will eventually return. Be patient . . .
Welcome Roger. You can also transition your current installations to Devuan. There is documentation on the download page and ask here or on the dng mail list if you have questions.
We are live! Currently from the Dyne HQ but will be at the venue tomorrow.

Program is here:
32-bit systems are limited to 4GiB of memory (regardless of PAE) but I am presuming that your machine doesn't have more than that.
Hmmm . . . I just went to 8gb of memory on a 32bit pae kernel and it often shows more than 4gb in use. Will have to keep an eye on that when I get home.
hi,
any suggestions which netinst I should use to get devuan?thanks
Have you seen the descriptions of the isos on the homepage of devuan.org ?
Not yet. Stay tuned . . .

golinux, did you do this? ;-)
Heck no! I'm on my way to AMS in a few hours. No time for such stupidity.
gmail can be a problem. Last fall we had a flurry of complaints about email messages bouncing. You have a different issue but this reply by Rick Moen might give you some ideas where to start dealing with your isp. Please forgive me if I'm totally off-base.
@Miyo . . . that video link starts in the middle not at the beginning! Get rid of the &t=1052s . . .
Now off to watch it!!!
The desire for harmful, unjust things is a fatal flaw of our species. And we never seem to learn . . .
^ Well I couldn't find a snapd package in the Devuan repositories
That's because it's on the banned packages list. Really, who needs "backassed" (thanks Ralph) pkgs like that.
What's elogind?
This should give you an idea. Among other things, in beowulf, it allows for the removal of libsystemd0.
Lysander . . . Third party repos are always a bit of a risk. Take care.
OK, so I see one of the devs is an astronomer, is there any other reason? Is it because Devuan is 'out of this world' [or something like that]?
This was discussed extensively on the DNG mail list where many suggestions were offered. You can find those posts in the archive. One of the main reasons we use the names of minor planets is that there is a minor planet named Jessie so that made a neat segue into the fork from Debian Jessie to Devuan Jessie. Many of us are trekkies and we forked around the time of Lenoard Nemoy's death. We actually used the Vulcan hand gesture on a bright red background for our very first iso splash screen. There are also a LOT of minor planet names to choose from.
Also, the 'D' of Devuan is highly stylised. Does it represent a comet or a planet in orbit?
It is the orbit of Ceres.
Debian's logo has caused a lot of speculation over time but now we know more or less what it means and exactly how it was created [if you don't know how, it's hilarious]. It would be good to clear up any confusion about the Devuan logo and thematic. Apologies if I have missed any already-existent information.
There was a "contest" which didn't produce a "winner" even though some of the suggestions were quite nice. But once the planetary theme was chosen, none of those was really relevant.
Then there was work on our gitlab. The genesis started here then moved to here.
*edit* Just found the Vulcan spash screen tucked away in an old gitlab issue
LOL! I totally forgot about those dependencies. If you had Clearlooks-Phenix-DarkPurpy or ascii desktop-base installed it should have pulled them in. The packagers take care of all that when my job is finished:
gtk2-engines
gtk2-engines-xfce
gtk3-engines-xfce
Note that I have not yet gotten to the OpenBox theme so it's still darkpurpy palette.
Just last night my beowulf lost the ability to put a background on the desktop. Still trying to sort that.
Hello zephyr, great to see you too!
I've ugraded to beowulf:
And lost libsystemd0 in the process :-)
My compliments to the devs.
Nice!!
But you still have the ASCII theming! The "bloody" beowulf theme parts are here. Screenshots too up top. The very helpful ToZ at the Xfce forum just gave me a snippet that fixed the final gtk-3 glitch in the Clearlooks-Phenix-Cinnabar theme. Give me a few to get that uploaded.
*edit* New zip uploaded.
