Take a look at refracta2usb.
You can also dd the drive but I can't seem to find the command atm. It's somewhere in here . . . LOL!
Oh here it is:
dd if=<full path to installer iso> of=/dev/sdxHave you tried single click instead of double?
Delighted to hear that it worked for you. Hopefully for others too.
I never searched for a solution. I stumbled on it by accident because I just can't click fast enough to use the default setting! The speed required was too stressful. LOLOL!
@James1138 . . . never use Debian repos directly. Our Devuan mirror(s) filter unwanted packages that are incompatible with Devuan.
I assume that you are referring to Applications -> Settings -> Mouse and Touchpad -> Behaviour?
Yes.
Could you post the values you have yours are set to so I can try and see if that has an effect for me?
ie:
Double Click Time = XXX ms
Double Click Distance = XXX px
Sure. Note that I have an old PS2 mouse. Nothing fancy.
Double Click Time = 400-500 ms
Double Click Distance = 5 px
In xfce4 thunar, it will either open a new tab or create a new folder as soon as i right click into white space sometimes, i usually have to hold the right button down to ensure it stays within the rightclick menu . . .
My muscle memory has adapted to this unwanted selection glitch. In fact I don't remember it happening in quite some time. Maybe it helps that I have set rather slow/lazy mouse reaction times.
Well . . . I have good news to report. I have been unable to create an iso with refractasnapshot for a very long time despite excluding ALL of my /home directory because the iso were always too big. So fsmithred and I decided to test your discovery. He instructed me to change line 1010 from this:
xorriso -as mkisofs -r -J -joliet-long -l ${isohybrid_opt} \To this:
xorriso -as mkisofs -r -J -joliet-long -l ${isohybrid_opt} -iso-level 3 \It took refracta-snapshot-gui a very long time to copy and squash the files since I had deleted the work directory but eventually it finished with a 4.9GB iso.
Then it was time to try it in qemu. I was delighted to see the boot process working as usual!!!
Now I need to redo the exclude list to include a basic home structure and perhaps delete a few things elsewhere starting with avahi.
I am overjoyed that I can now use refractasnapshot again. And this is also a milestone improvement for refracta! Thank you, thank you alphalpha!!!
Don't we have a sticky section where these things can go and live forever?
Reality check . . . nothing lasts forever. That being said, to date no posts have been pruned from this forum and would only be done manually with great care on my watch (which of course is also not forever for obvious reasons).
Welcome, miozin.
And of course read the Release Notes.
fsmithred . . . doesn't lightdm require a different backend than slim? I never could get that straightened out.
@thezeit . . . I sent you an email. You might have it blocked

https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/OpenRCI saw no mention of retiring OpenRC support on the Debian thread, I am also thinking this should be considered in regards to Devuan; default to OpenRC. I am running OpenRC on all my Devuan installs and havent encountered any problems. This is personal opinion, but I find OpenRC easier to understand over sysvinit, and prefer it. Please, dont want to start any flames nor arguments here.
Currently openrc relies on sysvinit helpers so still tied to it. Please refer to that thread on DNG. If those helpers are removed, openrc will be in trouble until there is a mature substitute to take over that function like runit. we're not there yet.
@thezeit . . . Already being discussed. Care to do more than suggest solutions? Maybe roll up your sleeves and get your hands dirty? We can always use more hands on deck.
There has been discussion of printers recently on the DNG mail list. I glossed over most of it because it was TMI but I suspect you might find an answer in there.

There's a Python-based converter from systemd to sysvinit here:
https://github.com/akhilvij/systemd-to- … -converter.
Yes. We already are aware of that. There will be a way forward.
Unfortunately linus has submitted to the CoCs.
He's between a rock and a hard place. CPS has been called and he's been deemed unfit to run a daycare. Having his baby snatched from him is unthinkable but a real possibility if he doesn't submit to this crap. He should fork the kernel and kiss the LF behind. Hey, I can dream . . .
It is not anywhere in Devuan/Debian: https://pkginfo.devuan.org/cgi-bin/d1pk … elease=any Maybe that's not the correct pkg name.
Also posting this news here to keep all Devuan users in the loop. Solutions are being discussed . . .
Many of us knew this day would come. The lock-in is nearly complete.

wonder if some noise should be made so that interested people can pick

As Christopher Barry said in his Aug 12 2014 Open letter to the Linux World:
OneLinux == zero-choice
Have you read the "Session management and policykit backends" section in the Release Notes? Looks like Mate uses slim + consolekit.
Thanks. A link should be fine.
I have had .xsession-errors files much larger than that because I forget to check. My home stuffed with ~250 GB so that file isn't a noticeable blip. It is possible to open those logs. Just change the encoding.
Please use code tags.
