Many thanks, KatolaZ, for the clarification. It seems that Devuan is a

I've downloaded the CD iso, and will try installing it. You never know,
XFCE might suit well enough. But I'll try a simple apt-get replacement
with LXDE, for consistency with my other hosts. Now's the time, before I
begin using the little Udoo X86 for anything other than video streaming.

Thanks, all. I'll be over in the corner, futzing.
