Hi folks! ✌️

Here's little changes in the script that will help you in setting up your Devuan (https://www.devuan.org/) after its first installation 👉 https://codeberg.org/xolatgames/setup-devuan

Thanks for attention! 🙂

We love seeing your custom setups! 🐧✨

One of our users has put their Slimbook EVO to the test by installing their own custom distribution: BRGV OS. Curious about the compatibility experience and how our hardware performs with a custom-built distro? 💻🔥

I'll leave the link right here, or you can search our forum for the title: "EVO with BRGV-OS" 🔗

Stepped into _Generics crap again. Previously it was related to u8"strings", but now they broke L"strings" They might have always been broken, idk.

So, L"fuck" is treated as int* in _Generic
I can add (char32_t*) in front of it, but I better wait for both #clang and #gcc hive minds to catch up.

Yet another crap comes from #gcc and incarnates in buggy code generation for a pretty innocent function. That starts from -O2 onward. Specifically, it's GCC 14.2.0-19 in Excalibur, #devuan

My Sunday challenge: installing #Devuan in place of #OpenBSD on my laptop so I can install #postmarketOS on an old tablet, because for some reason I only have a blue USB port on that laptop (my SFF PC has a whole bunch of USB ports, but none are blue). Let's see how well restoring the backup will work once I reinstall OpenBSD.

I wonder how many years worth of work would it take to create a #NetBSD / #smolBSD based mobile distro after #postmarketOS has done more progress...

Ok, so this thread (read it on) changed my views on #Devuan.

And here I was thinking that it was the good version of #Debian, done without systemd etc. Instead, I think I will look for more #AlpineLinux systems to deploy

Ok, so super strange thing has been happening with #Firefox and this computer.

Already in two different OSes (#AlpineLinux and #Devuan Linux), Firefox crashes (that "Gah your tab crashed!" message, or downright segfaults to death) less than 50 seconds after opening. And it's *any* firefox I can pull off - standalone Linux version, AppImage, Distro Repo, Mozilla Repo, you name it. They *all* crash randomly between 5 to 50 or so seconds after opening.

Other browsers seem to be working correctly, as is every other application installed here. Why TF is only the browser doing this?!

This is super frustrating, and makes me feel that there must be some hardware problem with this PC. Faulty RAM, perhaps? Wonder if there's anything I can do to save it (the PC, that is)

Ok, backup of the broken system done. Let's give Devuan testing a go as a creative desktop.
