hello Joel, thanks for your reply. I have moved on to Salix, which, unlike its Slackware parent, has apt-like dependency resolution and is as [un]reliable as any of the non-systemd distros that I have evaluated/used on my travels.
Suffice to say that I have tried different devuan-based distros, and compiled my own recent module-free, custom kernel - nothing I tried worked. Since this matter was registered as a bug/issue with the devuan project, I received little feedback. When my 6th-gen intel boxes start to die and be replaced by amd/arm [losing faith in intel], I may give devuan another try. JackSprat ps: I have never been sucessful in getting a vesa driver to work, either with a template /etc/X11/xorg.conf or fragments in xorg.conf.d/.
