Isn't there another FAT? called something like exfat?

Or several such sealed envelopes, each with full instructions about the disk drive, each in costody of a different trusted person living at a different place. In case one of the envelopes is mislaid or destroyed in a house fire. Maybe even a few off-site backups as well. -- hendrik > > -- > Cheers, "My hot flight attendant asked how I like my coffee. > Rick Moen And that's when she told me: 'That's cute, honey, > but > r...@linuxmafia.com the coffee's free.

Re: [DNG] Can't install Gwenview on Devuan Beowulf with XFCE
Thank you both, I tried several alternatives and finally kept eog (Eye of Gnome). It requires only 4 additional packages to meet it's dependencies. Just as Ludovic pointed out, switching to elogind solves the problem. But, the amount of packages to install in order to use just one KDE app is humongous: root@vaio:/home/emi# apt-get install -s elogind gwenview Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required: libcgmanager0 libnih-dbus1 libnih1 Use 'sudo apt autoremove' to remove them. The following additional packages will be installed: catdoc kactivities-bin kactivitymanagerd kamera keditbookmarks kinit kio kio-extras kio-extras-data kwayland-data kwayland-integration libcfitsio7 libdbusmenu-qt5-2 libelogind0 libepub0 libfam0 libhfstospell10 libkf5activities5 libkf5archive5 libkf5attica5 libkf5auth-data libkf5auth5 libkf5baloo5 libkf5balooengine5 libkf5bookmarks-data libkf5bookmarks5 libkf5codecs-data libkf5codecs5 libkf5completion-data libkf5completion5 libkf5config-bin libkf5config-data libkf5configcore5 libkf5configgui5 libkf5configwidgets-data libkf5configwidgets5 libkf5coreaddons-data libkf5coreaddons5 libkf5crash5 libkf5dbusaddons-bin libkf5dbusaddons-data libkf5dbusaddons5 libkf5dnssd-data libkf5dnssd5 libkf5doctools5 libkf5filemetadata-bin libkf5filemetadata-data libkf5filemetadata3 libkf5globalaccel-bin libkf5globalaccel-data libkf5globalaccel5 libkf5globalaccelprivate5 libkf5guiaddons5 libkf5i18n-data libkf5i18n5 libkf5iconthemes-bin libkf5iconthemes-data libkf5iconthemes5 libkf5idletime5 libkf5itemmodels5 libkf5itemviews-data libkf5itemviews5 libkf5jobwidgets-data libkf5jobwidgets5 libkf5js5 libkf5kdcraw5 libkf5khtml-bin libkf5khtml-data libkf5khtml5 libkf5kiocore5 libkf5kiofilewidgets5 libkf5kiogui5 libkf5kiontlm5 libkf5kiowidgets5 libkf5kipi-data libkf5kipi32.0.0 libkf5notifications-data libkf5notifications5 libkf5parts-data libkf5parts-plugins libkf5parts5 libkf5pty-data libkf5pty5 libkf5service-bin libkf5service-data libkf5service5 libkf5solid5 libkf5solid5-data libkf5sonnet5-data libkf5sonnetcore5 libkf5sonnetui5 libkf5textwidgets-data libkf5textwidgets5 libkf5wallet-bin libkf5wallet-data libkf5wallet5 libkf5waylandclient5 libkf5widgetsaddons-data libkf5widgetsaddons5 libkf5windowsystem-data libkf5windowsystem5 libkf5xmlgui-bin libkf5xmlgui-data libkf5xmlgui5 libkwalletbackend5-5 libpam-elogind libphonon4qt5-4 libpolkit-backend-elogind-1-0 libpolkit-gobject-elogind-1-0 libpolkit-qt5-1-1 libpoppler-qt5-1 libqt5texttospeech5 libqt5waylandclient5 libqt5waylandcompositor5 libssh-4 libvoikko1 libzip4 media-player-info phonon4qt5 phonon4qt5-backend-vlc qtwayland5 sonnet-plugins Suggested packages: fam voikko-fi phonon4qt5-backend-gstreamer hspell The following packages will be REMOVED: consolekit libpam-ck-connector libpolkit-backend-consolekit-1-0 libpolkit-gobject-consolekit-1-0 libsystemd0 The following NEW packages will be installed: catdoc elogind gwenview kactivities-bin kactivitymanagerd kamera keditbookmarks kinit kio kio-extras kio-extras-data kwayland-data kwayland-integration libcfitsio7 libdbusmenu-qt5-2 libelogind0 libepub0 libfam0 libhfstospell10 libkf5activities5 libkf5archive5 libkf5attica5 libkf5auth-data libkf5auth5 libkf5baloo5 libkf5balooengine5 libkf5bookmarks-data libkf5bookmarks5 libkf5codecs-data libkf5codecs5 libkf5completion-data libkf5completion5 libkf5config-bin libkf5config-data libkf5configcore5 libkf5configgui5 libkf5configwidgets-data libkf5configwidgets5 libkf5coreaddons-data libkf5coreaddons5 libkf5crash5 libkf5dbusaddons-bin libkf5dbusaddons-data libkf5dbusaddons5 libkf5dnssd-data libkf5dnssd5 libkf5doctools5 libkf5filemetadata-bin libkf5filemetadata-data libkf5filemetadata3 libkf5globalaccel-bin libkf5globalaccel-data libkf5globalaccel5 libkf5globalaccelprivate5 libkf5guiaddons5 libkf5i18n-data libkf5i18n5 libkf5iconthemes-bin libkf5iconthemes-data libkf5iconthemes5 libkf5idletime5 libkf5itemmodels5 libkf5itemviews-data libkf5itemviews5 libkf5jobwidgets-data libkf5jobwidgets5 libkf5js5 libkf5kdcraw5 libkf5khtml-bin libkf5khtml-data libkf5khtml5 libkf5kiocore5 libkf5kiofilewidgets5 libkf5kiogui5 libkf5kiontlm5 libkf5kiowidgets5 libkf5kipi-data libkf5kipi32.0.0 libkf5notifications-data libkf5notifications5 libkf5parts-data libkf5parts-plugins libkf5parts5 libkf5pty-data libkf5pty5 libkf5service-bin libkf5service-data libkf5service5 libkf5solid5 libkf5solid5-data libkf5sonnet5-data libkf5sonnetcore5 libkf5sonnetui5 libkf5textwidgets-data libkf5textwidgets5 libkf5wallet-bin libkf5wallet-data libkf5wallet5 libkf5waylandclient5 libkf5widgetsaddons-data libkf5widgetsaddons5 libkf5windowsystem-data libkf5windowsystem5 libkf5xmlgui-bin libkf5xmlgui-data libkf5xmlgui5 libkwalletbackend5-5 libpam-elogind libphonon4qt5-4 libpolkit-backend-elogind-1-0 libpolkit-gobject-elogind-1
