Sorry I didn't understand.
You installed kgtk-q3-trinity and it messed up FF and Pan?

Cross posting from Devuan list, as I know others here use Devuan.
I'm either still too new there to post? Or they use some hidden moderation on
top of mailing list confirmation? Or the admin is on vacation this week?
*shrug* don't know, 5 posts disappeared into an active list, apologies for
bothering those TDE'ers not on Devuan. Michael.

After further investigation, the missing package is in Debian 9 (Stretch)
Contrib:
https://pkgs.org/download/nvidia-installer-cleanup
I tried adding 'contrib' to the end of sources, which worked for 'non-free,'
but doesn't seem to work for contrib.
So... What is the corresponding Devuan repository for Debian Contrib?
If there isn't one, what are the issues with installing the .deb
(nvidia-installer-cleanup_20151021+4_amd64.deb) from the above link?
Thanks,
Michael

I'm sorry for posting this to the list. I have been trying to unsubscribe for about a month with no luck. The emails were directed to the unsubscribe address provided. The word unsubscribe was included in both the Subject and Body of the emails. Is there some other way to unsubscribe?

Hi Gene!
It's likely your problem with pclos was it was 32bit.
pclos doesn't support 32bit anymore, not for a long time.
I think since 2015 or 16.
I have me test machines, data recovery machines, laptops and server all
running Ali's Big Daddy rolls. It works great.
The only thing I don't like and it happens TDE under any distro. It's the
constant reloading of the gui when I install software. I don't understand why
it does that. Bug?

Probably nothing to do with this problem, but anyway:
If I have a HDD connected via a USB adaptor, I've found that after an
initial plugging and use, then safely removing it, going back to it,
in the same session, it may or may not be recognised. Doing a hard
reboot seems to clear what ever causes this. Simply logging out and
logging back in doesn't seem to work.

Cheers Doc & deloptes, well observed, well said.
Several mates went out of business supporting Vista,
Now, a few more are close to closing because of win10.
All I get at the shop are people bring in there machines to have data
recovered after win8/10 died during an update (not so much win7).
I don't know how MS stays in business.
The os on this laptop, that I'm writing this email on, will be retired soon
for Alistair Izzard's big daddy roll of PCLOS 64bit. Thank you very much Ali
and to all.
The OS is Ark Linux 2008. It's more than 10 years old and it has served me
well, great infact. It took 7 years to find a replacement.
Any linux, even a bad one, is always better than the best windows edition (or
OSX but not to the same shocking degree).
