Jessie is usable but LTS means Long Term Support means less security support.
That said, if Ascii does not work for you then I would recommend Devuan Jessie at least in the short term. You need to get a solid base that works for you and then upgrade by simple stages.
Do you mean like if I do a Jessie base install and then upgrade to ASCII and then install my desktop or something else? Just so you know Trinity for Jessie will not install on ASCII/Stretch, I wish it would.
Trinity Stable for Jessie works well with Jessie.
To bad it don't work with ASCII.
Trinity PSB for Ascii works well with Ascii.
Please make your posts as precise as possible. I still don't know what you mean when you say you migrated to the "Devuan Jessie-Beowulf merged version".
Bill said that not me.
Can you give me a Debian bug number for the HDMI problem for reference?
In more than 20 years I've never filed a bug report, but there have been Dev's who have shown a interest and have been able to reproduce the problems I have found and have filed bug reports, so I don't know if there has been a bug report filed or not.
Please search Debian bug reports for your Debian HDMI bug. If there's no report on your problem please file one.
Why should I start now.
If there's a TDE bug please do the same with TDE bug reports ... but thus far I don't see any TDE aspect to this and I don't understand why you're posting complaints to a TDE list instead of filing bugs to the Debian bug database.
I'm not using Debian, I'm using Devuan. Also I was talking to Bill and then you jumped in, so I explained the problem to you and why I don't recommend Bill upgrading from Jessie. I'm pretty sure what's going on is a security problem and part of that systemd crap that has not been rooted out yet. Besides I like using Jessie and hate to upgrade, but I will test most anything and give a report *if I feel like it*. Also I'm not much of a joiner. :)
I'm sure the problem will be fixed in time it just takes a couple of years. In the meantime Dev's will be using Jessie and will not notice the problem. If you're in Yosemite I worked there for about 10 yrs(early 80's to the early 90's), just thought I'd let you know.
Cheers,
