I looked and i have already installed sysv-rc. In any case, i did a

Does that mean openrc as an option for devuan is gone?

Finally i succeeded in installing a devuan ascii into qemu (running on
an archlinux openrc system).
And here too, i noticed that the debian installer is somehow "extreme"
in using ressources. Note this is *NOT* an amd graphics based machine
but a sony_vaio with nvidia graphics. (On another laptop,

Thx for the hint! But unfortunately,that does *NOT* work in any
terminal program (sakura, lxterminal & cie) within X.
Using the command with xterm though, produces a nearly unreadable

If i do 'xterm -T Htop -e htop' the terminal window rests open, if i do
'xterm -T Sysinfo -e inxi -F' the window closes.
In some way it's logical, to me, since htop has not finished its job
until i do not do F10. Inxi, otoh, has finished. But how can i make,
that also the windows with the -inxi -F

I don't know, if it is the right place here to ask such trivial
questions, if not please tell me, no problem at all.
I wanted to suggest, for the future, may be for a better user
experience, if it is possible and reasonable to create a small script,
which would configure /etc/hosts in a way that a

Anyone of you knows a way how to use zram for /tmp ?
(I inherited a sony_vaio with 16 gb of ram - which i never ever
will/could use, so i thought to use the excessive ram configuring zram).
For OpenRc there are scripts to utilize zram either/and for swap and/or
for tmp. They are looking like this

Hello list!
Is it possible/wished to have comunity driven repositories for devuan?
Background: trying to put together the stuff to make a viable JWM
desktop for devuan, i realize there are some key
applications/scripts/tools which are *NOT* in the devuan repositories
(not even in testing or unstab
I see in the Jessie installation the Devuan backgrounds are placed
in /etc/alternatives. Is that a good place? One would expect them
rather in /usr/share/wallpapers, or not?
Cheers.
