I'm sorry to hear about your disappointing experience with Devuan, and thank
you for reporting the problems to us.

One thing which would be helpful in order to investigate this further would be
to know more about the hardware you were installing it on; obviously I'm
specifically asking about the ethernet and sound chipsets.

Please could you let us know:

a) the output of lspci and/or lsusb as it applies to these interfaces

b) for the Mate setup, what modules does lsmod tell you have been loaded for
the sound card

c) for the KDE setup, what modeules does lsmod tell you have been loaded for
the ethernet interface?

Any similar related information you can give us would probably be helpful.


Thanks,


Antony.
