DebianDog-Stretch with Deepin DE [CLOSED]
Posted: Mon 02 Jan 2017, 14:29
Discontinued, see here:
http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic. ... 694#946694
Edit: The thread that the above link points to doesn't exist anymore.
Short version of the story:
Using the name "DebianDog" (by me) caused so much trouble in general (and got me personally in such a stressful situation), that I finally gave up developing any further using that name.
EDIT 2017-10-14: ISO updated, download links below replaced, see also here:

*** Debiandog-Stretch with Deepin DE ***
Much more light than Xenialdog-Deepin which has (memory leak) problems and therefore has been discontinued.
Deepin Website
(Edit: there was a choice for english some time ago, now it seems to be only in chinese language)
Deepin packages taken from Sparkylinux, but some modified a little (less dependencies)
The Deepin DE included here (version 15.3) is very basic, no extras, such as deepin filemanager, terminal, music etc... are not included.
Kernel: 4.7.0-1-686-pae
EDIT: 2017-10-14: Kernel 4.9.0-3-686-pae
Default WM - Deepin (with option JWM, logging in as root, see below)
Default File Manager - Thunar with option to use rox.
Default Internet Browser - Firefox.
Added:
- Quick-remaster (works with porteus-boot only)
- Lightdm Login Manager
Minimum System requirement: 1GB of RAM, recommended 2GB or more.
Main "01-filesystem.squashfs" is compressed XZ
Tip: when installed frugally, use "Convert-SFS" to convert "01-filesystem.squashfs" to GZIP or LZ4, booting and running will be faster then, although filesize will be increased.
And:To disable composite (window effects), press Super+Shift+Tab (toggle composite on/off) (there's also "Toggle WindowEffects" on the desktop and the dock to enable/disable window effects)
Login details:
puppy with password puppy (default automatic login)
root with password root
Note 1: Login as root into Deepin doesn't work, problems are e.g. very high CPU usage, resulting in freeze of the system. Couldn't find a solution for that problem.
Login as root into JWM works, log in from console (e.g. from vt2) and type startx
Note 2: Default user "puppy" has much extra (admin) permissions, no password needed using sudo or gsu (graphical sudo) for all applications. (this is set in /etc/sudoers: puppy ALL = NOPASSWD: ALL)
Create a new user (use "Add New user" (from Applications menu) ) for a real unprivileged user.
Note 3: The Debian Stretch (testing) repository is set to "static", from debian.snapshot, see more info here (e.g. how to change to regular repository):
https://github.com/DebianDog/Stretch/bl ... /README.md
(scroll a little down for Deepin)
EDIT 2017-10-14: Changed in new ISO to "Stretch", repos from regular 'stable' branch.
There are some launchers for 'Filemanager SuperUser' and 'Terminal SuperUser' on the the Desktop and the bottom bar.
Many thanks to forum member belham2, for his inspiring post Here that made me curious in the first place about the Deepin DE.
And of course, thanks very much to all who were involved with creating DebianDog.
