Devuan Install #1406

Open olexij-christian opened 1 month ago

I don't know if this is a good question to ask here But how can I install the kernel in Devuan When I enter the commands sudo apt install linux-image-surface linux-headers-surface libwacom-surface I get the error: The following packages have unmet dependencies: libwacom-bin-surface : Depends: systemd but it is not installable libwacom2-surface : Depends: systemd but it is not installable libwacom9-surface : Depends: systemd but it is not installable E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages. Any ideas what can be done? I understand that for libwacom and iptsd I will need to try some because Devuan wothout Systemd. But what can be done with these particular errors?

Thanks!

Just drop libwacom-surface from the command, then it should install only the kernel.

That said though, I don't think that libwacom actually needs systemd, so we should be able to fix that.

Yes, it worked! But the subsequent install of secureboot and iptsd doesn't work, but I'm already glad to have a touchscreen working, albeit not completely, thank you very much!
