Some problems after convertion from Debian to Devuan.

Hello, I converted my debian system into devuan yesterday. It's successfully and usable right now. I just have some problems after the convertion :

- /dev/dri/renderD128 always has wrong permission, I need to chmod it in order to be used.
- seatd and elogind won't start automatically, I need to start it manually so I can launch wayland compositor.
- apt somehow need to be told to use IPv4, if not it will stuck at connecting (maybe) forever.

I don't bother with the last two, but for the first, I need to guidance to make it right. Any advice ? Thanks

Re: Some problems after convertion from Debian to Devuan.

Afaict, assuming you have eudev installed, the mode for /dev/dri/renderD128 would be set b.m.o line 42 in /lib/udev/rules.d/50-udev-default.rules.

Answer about seatd and elogind would start with asking which "service managment" you are using; (apparently not sysvinit?)

About apt using ipv4 there's web results like this, suggesting by example:

sudo apt-get -o Acquire::ForceIPv4=true install pkg
sudo apt-get -o Acquire::ForceIPv4=true update
sudo apt-get -o Acquire::ForceIPv4=true upgrade
sudo apt-get -o Acquire::ForceIPv4=true dist-upgrade
sudo apt-get -o Acquire::ForceIPv4=true install ksh

Thanks @ralph. I'll look into those.

How to mark this as unsolved ? I still have one problem, the /dev/dri/renderD128 still always has wrong permission.

Re: Some problems after convertion from Debian to Devuan.

Which permissions does it have/get and which permissions would you want?
Do you use eudev?

before I set (some programs won't launch)

[~]$ ls -la /dev/dri/renderD128                                                                                                                                         
crw-rw-- 1 root video 226, 128 Jan  6 13:06 /dev/dri/renderD128

After I chmod it to 666 (mind the number, everything works fine).

[~]$ ls -la /dev/dri/renderD128                                                                                                                                         
crw-rw-rw- 1 root video 226, 128 Jan  6 13:06 /dev/dri/renderD128

Yes I'm using eudev.

I have dmesg output, if that helps : https://gitlab.com/lidgl/kumpulan_log/- … /dmesg.log

Note : Don't mind the kernel version, I also use stock devuan kernel and it's same.

Re: Some problems after convertion from Debian to Devuan.

[    1.648553] systemd-udevd[197]: starting version 3.2.14

I don't think you should run both udev and eudev!! (It looks like you do)

Get rid of systemd-udevd first. But if that doesn't fix it we should look further.

I don't have systemd-udev and udev, checked by dpkg -l | grep udev command.

Re: Some problems after convertion from Debian to Devuan.

Presumably some residue from incompletely removed packages, but there is something claiming to be systemd-udevd in the log. Check for /lib/systemd/systemd-udevd and /ur/lib/systemd/systemd-udevd and remove that, and restart.

The other udevd logs (apparently competing with the extraneous systemd-udevd) belong to the eudev package, which I would have thought you installed as replacement. If not, then you have to chase up which binary is involved and where it comes from. Something like this (as root) perhaps:

# find /bin /sbin /lib /usr -name '*udev*
