them is on Dng.

I moved from xubuntu 14.04 to devuan ascii a month or so back and it's... fine?
It's debian. I have the usual complaints and bugs and weird version skew moving
from one distro to another, but red hat -> knoppix -> fedora -> ubuntu ->
xubuntu (and I'm probably missing at least one) means that's totally not a new
thing. (Plus needing to use RHELL and SLES and such at work over the years.)
I want to set their wireless network manager gui thing on fire (it remembers the
network access point password I typed in during system setup, but none of the
ones since ever save, nor does the "autoconnect" button; and of couse half the
time it doesn't notice wireless has changed until I open the gui, and if I open
the gui at the university it times out enumerating access points and the window
stays blank _forever_). But then I wanted to set networkmangler on fire for most
of a decade too. Apparently parsing the output if iwlist is hard for gui people
to wrap their heads around.
