@HextorBRX . . . Are you using http or https? You should be using http.

#2353 Re: Intergalactic Communities » Italian Speaking Forum » 2018-10-01 20:50:50
Early on there was an Italian Devuan forum. I even customized the logo for that forum. It folded due to lack of participation after about a year. @viverna . . . iirc you were a member there.

It's back up now. Was down even yesterday.

Hmmm . . . sounds too good to be true and a little trendy to be honest. All the social networking and invitation to join them on Glitter pushed me over the edge. That chat is Trusted by: AirBnB, Amazon Web Services, Google, Microsoft. Good grief, that's not a world that I want to inhabit. Maybe I'm just too old and cranky . . .
#2356 Re: Desktop and Multimedia » Xfce forum down? » 2018-09-30 00:02:32
Wonder what's up with that. Maybe they forgot to pay the renewal . . .

Yes, dzz is a member but I have not seen him in over a year. Last forum visit was 2017-04-05.

Have you looked at dev1fanboy's upgrade guides?
#2360 Re: Devuan Derivatives » Testing Exe GNULinux / Trinity Desktop » 2018-09-25 04:00:07
Thanks for the help fsmithred. Possible last questions:
1) If I decided to dual boot with Exe GNU/Linux, how would I update it to Stretch?
2) And, how to add the correct repos for current updates?
These two links should answer your questions:
https://files.devuan.org/devuan_ascii/Release_notes.txt
https://devuan.org/os/etc/apt/sources.list
I don't know that anyone has tried to upgrade exe-gnu jessie to ascii (stretch). Would probably be a good idea to do it in a VM first. Trinity does have several mail lists that might have an answer to your question in the archives.
#2361 Re: Installation » Migration from Bunsenlabs debian to ASCII » 2018-09-24 23:29:21
On LightDM and xfce, I have used them together in Debian, and all things being equal, they should be fine together surely.
Do not assume equal compatibility in Devuan as our backends are different to accommodate eudev. Please read the Release Notes for clarification.
#2362 Re: Hardware & System Configuration » What tool for software updates + notifications? » 2018-09-24 22:14:51
It would be a learning curve but well worth it imo. Forks should include source code and history from day 1. Sometimes that is not so easy to find. IRC might be the best place to get help on how to do that.
#2363 Re: Hardware & System Configuration » What tool for software updates + notifications? » 2018-09-24 16:33:27
Wondering if/how we could get this added to the Devuan repos so I can apt install it rather than wget of a path that may change?
Maybe you'd consider forking it into git.devuan.org and building a package compatible with devuan/debian. Then it could go into devuan-proposed and eventually to the main repo.
#2364 Re: Installation » Migration from Bunsenlabs debian to ASCII » 2018-09-24 14:49:36
Nothing ventured, nothing learnt.
1) . . . XFCE only works properly with sddm.
Wrong. Slim is the default DM for Xfce and works perfectly. Did you have a problem with it?
2) deb.devuan.org is a little bit buggy. I would select pkgmaster if I were you.
pkgmaster is the source for the deb.devuan.org round-robin.
The issue with using deb.devuan.org on jessie has been fixed:
https://lists.dyne.org/lurker/message/2 … 51.en.html
Please report issues to bugs,devuan.org.
3) . . . so create your partitions prior to running the installer.
Yes. I also find it a bit awkward to do during the installation process.
The desktop-live ISO works out of the box and it is my favorite way of installing Devuan.
fsmithred is amazing!

He could post it somewhere for everyone to dl like transfer.sh.

Quite a few users have gotten openrc running just fine. I am not one of them. Still mostly on jessie.

@Miyo . . . what are you smoking?
#2369 Re: Intergalactic Communities » French Speaking Forum » 2018-09-21 19:54:59
Il y a eu quelques rapports de problèmes aujourd'hui. Nous vérifions.
En fait, c'est assez fréquent ^^ J'utilise "fr.deb.devuan.org" depuis cet été et j'ai toujours eu des problèmes pour récupérer les paquets.
Sorry, I'm Frenched out for the day . . .
There have been reports of mirror problems on other Devuan channels including bug#244: mirrors: deb.devuan.org mirrors.
Il y a plus efficace que Google Translate. En France, on utilise ce site: https://www.linguee.fr/ C'est très fiable si tu recherches une expression ou un morceau de phrase. Ca permet de choisir la bonne expression en fonction du contexte. Le dictionnaire de français le plus facile est le Larousse français: https://www.larousse.fr/dictionnaires/francais Ensuite, tu connais certainement wordreference.com http://www.wordreference.com/
Thanks for the tips. I had a Larousse about 50 years ago but it's long gone. Was reading some of the French classics and went through a Baudelaire phase. Proust made no sense in any language. LOL!I Can still read fairly well but writing/speaking is another matter . . .
Tu écris vachement bien en anglais, alors j'imagine que tu es anglophone?
Nope. The other side of the pond in Trumpistania. Please don't hold it against me.

Il y a de nombreuses années, j'ai réussi avec le français. Maintenant, j'ai besoin de l'aide de Google Translate!

Do we really need to bloat our backups with this?
#2372 Re: Desktop and Multimedia » [SOLVED] Nvidia error at boot » 2018-09-20 23:14:53
I am running XFCE, not impressed with v4.12 (hate the new look scroll bars) but dislike all the others more
You can get the "classic" scrollbar with the Clearlooks-Phenix-DarkPurpy theme.
To get the entire boot to desktop theme, install desktop-base.
#2373 Re: Installation » [SOLVED, don't buy one to begin with] dell xps-13 » 2018-09-19 19:02:47
You can also check out MX Linux which uses sysvinit as well: 4.15 kernel and full of non-free blobs (but it works).
MX Linux also has the ability to enable systemd so all the systemd dependencies have to be present. IMO those tentacles are unacceptable. antiX does a better job of it.
#2374 Re: Installation » [SOLVED, don't buy one to begin with] dell xps-13 » 2018-09-17 15:11:31
You certainly picked the right nick!
#2375 Re: Installation » [SOLVED, don't buy one to begin with] dell xps-13 » 2018-09-17 00:17:56
non-free should be available in Jessie also.
