Hello.
I've now switched to ASCII for my personal laptop (amd-64 arch) and
I found it working well, better for me than Jessie.
A significant improvement with respect to Jessie is that mmc
devices are now handled properly by xfce4, and I read on the list this
is due to the replacement of udev by eudev.
I confirm that Skypeforlinux works well with Apulse and with
Pulseaudio uninstalled. Vlc works well with Alsa and I use a
locally-compiled Palemoon using Alsa. The Pulseaudio libraries are still
installed to satisfy the dependence of a bunch of packages.
A regression with respect to the older releases of Debian and
Devuan is the new /etc/init.d/networking script. I have sent on the
list a patch to correct this file. I aso had to change /etc/interfaces:
previously I had "allow-hotplug wlan0"; now I still have it, plus "auto
wlan0", otherwise wlan0 is not always started at boot time. This
ifpudown logic is rather convoluted and I fall down to this kind of tricks.
Didier
