Hi,
I got my installation iso from 'installer-iso] area downloading
devuan_jessie_1.0.0_amd64_CD.iso and ran my installation from scratch
including mate-desktop in it. All went through with no trouble. Only
small opstical is while entering the graphical environment, one has to
type in username and password with no speech; when done ORCA kicks in.
Great job,
Pawel
