When is Devuan getting plasma 6.7

My apologies if this has been asked before. I only found this distro two weeks ago. Loving it but I was wondering if anyone has heard a time-frame as to when KDE Plasma might be upgraded to the latest version?

Thanks in Advance...

How is it to be on devuan unstable

I am really fascinated by the devuan, because it has a lot of packages and support. So how is it to be on unstable version of devuan? Is it like on arch, but without pacman and aur? or is it like on ubuntu?

Thinkpad E420 with Devuan not starting up correctly with I7-2640M

Despite BIOS being able to correctly identify the new CPU and the computer being able to post, when I boot Devuan, all I get is a flashing underscore (shown below). Any ideas as to why?

Spent my weekend building a lightweight, systemd-free daily driver. Devuan + i3wm.

The Stack:

  • Base: Devuan 13
  • WM: i3wm
  • Launcher: Rofi
  • Bar: Polybar
  • Compositor: Picom (Transparency & opacity effects)
  • Widget: Conky (Clock and Weather)

It feels incredibly fast and responsive. I’m still getting used to the i3 workflow, but it’s exactly the level of control I was looking for.

What’s next? I’d love some suggestions for customization tweaks. Looking for any aesthetic or functional tips!

Soon to Be New Devuan User

Hello all,

I recently started using Debian Testing and really liking it. But I just saw my state just sign a bill to require OSes for age verification by 2028. I know that’s 2 years but I want to find something that won’t allow age verification.

Other than Devuan being systemD free, is it any different to Debian? Also what’s some tips when using i?

Thank you all, for librevuan.

To be honest, I abandoned librevuan because of its idiotic architecture and dependence on sysvinit, and also because of its laziness.

(This isn't an insult; it's just that the Arch architecture is closer to me than Debian.)

I had an idea for creating mintix based on artix, but that's a completely different story.

Thank you all, and enjoy the cool librevuan wallpapers!

Some packages not available on testing

deb     http://us.deb.devuan.org/merged testing main contrib non-free non-free-firmware
deb-src http://us.deb.devuan.org/merged testing main contrib non-free non-free-firmware

I do not use the new /etc/apt/sources.list.d so here is my /etc/apt/sources.listand some packages are missing like Blender and tilp2

connor@dell:~$ sudo apt install tilp2
Package tilp2 is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source

Error: Package 'tilp2' has no installation candidate
