That's right. But does it have to be a complete integrated desktop environment? Does anyone know "Crunchbang Linux" (based on Wheezy) or its successor "Bunsenlab Linux" (based on Jessie)? It's a simple desktop, composed of openbox, tint2, some scripts and a nice theme. I love it. I ported this desktop to my Devuan Jessie. The only downside: the Crunchbang theme is not fully compatible with Jessie, because of gtk3 in some applications. And I'm not familiar with repairing broken themes. :-( -- Mit besten Grüßen Jochen Fahrner ___ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng

Do you really want to go without Firefox or Chrome? The goal should be to make a system with applications linked against gtk2 libraries, avoiding gtk3 totally. -- Mit besten Grüßen Jochen Fahrner ___ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng

I totally agree with this problem, and I suffer from it after upgrading my Crunchbang Linux to Devuan Jessie. Lots of applications are broken because they now use gtk3 and themes are not compatible. Even if the applications would support gtk2, you have to compile them your own, because binary dsitributions with Gnome support link all the applications againt gtk3. I tend to leave Linux as a dekstop system, use it only for my headless server systems. The Linux desktop is broken! :-( The next step after "no systemd" should be "no gnome". -- Mit besten Grüßen Jochen Fahrner ___ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng

VFP exists since ARMv5, but Debian decided to use VFP on ARMv7 and above. https://www.arm.com/products/processors/technologies/vector-floating-point.php Are there any experiences what the impact on performance is, using softfloat on a headless internet server box serving mainly files (smb, http, ftp), doing no mathematic computations? Is FP used in encryption technologies (ssl)? -- Mit besten Grüßen Jochen Fahrner ___ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng

Nobody comes up with the idea to compile packages for the Intel platform only for the newest shiny Corie i7. So why do Devuan compile for ARMv7? Raspbian made the decision to divide into architecture "armel" (PI 1A) and "armhf" (PI 1B and later). So Devuan should do the same. If not, it comes to problems like mine: migrating from Raspbian Jessie with architecture "armhf" ends in segmentation faults on many PIs. The only option I have: install from scratch with Devuans "armel" Image. But this is not really an option, I will loose hardfloat, making my PI even more slower than it already is. So I stay with Raspbian Jessie. -- Mit besten Grüßen Jochen Fahrner ___ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
[DNG] Power Button fires two acpi events
Hi, on my Thinkpad T61 the power button fires two acpi events: |button/power PBTN| button/power LNXPWRBN:00 This is not a problem if you shutdown the computer, then the second event is ignored. But if you try to suspend on power button, on resume the second event causes it again to suspend immediately after resume. I changed the power button script to ignore the LNXPWRBN event. But I'm wondering what is causing this additional event? What is the purpose? -- Mit besten Grüßen Jochen Fahrner ___ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng

Do you have security-updates repository enabled? Yes, same repositories on both systems (32-/64-bit). Maybe I'm using a mirror which is not up to date? I will check that this evening. Is there a way to browse the repositories like it can be done at debian.org? -- Mit besten Grüßen Jochen Fahrner ___ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
