Porteus

i would use the slackware current version since it requires gcc.. (hopefully there haven't been any incompatible changes since release)
tip: you can use: # getpkg gcc-fortran command which will download the package directly from slackware current repo..

hi beny, what's your video card/driver? i don't think init3 cheatcode will work, because xfce autologin is done using openrc via /etc/conf.d/agetty.tty1 and ~/.bash_profile (in the xfce module) see: Starting a DM with openrc (Post by ncmprhnsbl #58946) one way around this might be to make module wit...

new problem (scenario) ..... this sounds like something that came up in cinnamon or mate, and had to do with login shells or something.. long story short: thunar roots' .desktop Exec line needs : gksu -l hopefully, this then carries over to mousepad and creates the correct(root) user dconf/xdg file...

@ncm
You need:
/etc/profile.d/gmpv.csh and and /etc/profile.d/gmpv.sh:

thanks tome, that was it
Gnome-mpv-0.14 for xfce (and others)

Gnome-mpv is a simple gtk3 gui for mpv https://gnome-mpv.github.io/ it is included in cinnamon, mate and kde already, this module should work with any of the other DE modules.. Download: gnome-mpv-0.14-x86_64-1.xzm 92 KB locales, docs and man page: gnome-mpv-export.xzm 64 KB note: if you activate th...

Maybe adding the gnome-mpv front end isn't a bad idea to get a bit of comfort. so far, i havn't had any joy getting gnome-mpv to work in xfce, either by extracting jssouzas from cinnamon or compiling a fresh version.. getting segfault crash on startup: $ gnome-mpv Non-C locale detected. This is not...

Now we need some kind of navigation. MPV immediately start playing the 1st episode of the DVD, no DVD-menu to select the content of the DVD. seems this limitation will remain: https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv/commit/3b3170aedb4c8a9bfa32238f3b580feea22071f8 https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv/issues/...

ok.. disregard most of that last post .. i didn't have the region set on my hardware(used package: regionset for this) seems rebuilding libdvdread is not necessary, just mpv: mpv-0.27.2-x86_64-2_SBo.xzm note: this build may be missing some of the configure args in the original mpv these are what i u...

so yeah, it seems libdvdread needs compile configure arg: --with-libdvdcss (and have libdvdcss installed in build enviroment) and mpv needs needs compile configure args: --enable-dvdnav --enable-dvdread but even after doing this, i get: $ mpv dvd:// Playing: dvd:// libdvdnav: Using dvdnav version 6....

libdvdcss is not shipped with porteus,(legal reasons?). You have to download (USM) and activate this lib. this might be an occasion when you need to get a package directly from current (or build it) possibly: https://slackonly.com/pub/packages/current-x86_64/libraries/libdvdcss/libdvdcss-1.4.0-x86_...

if your settings/password are saved in changes or a module, it should connect automaticly in mode 3 also..
if not, there is nmtui , a ncurses interface, easier to use than nmcli..

As I wrote, deb2xzm does not work ONLY if the devel module was mounted at boot time,

ah, i misread.. that is odd..

So, what intel-ucode.cpio does? #dmesg | grep microcode to find the revision date.. as far as meltdown/spectre, for a pentium(and any other older intel cpu) probably nothing.. eg. here's my 8? year old i7 : #dmesg | grep microcode [ 0.000000] microcode: microcode updated early to revision 0x7, date...

When trying convert these packages into a module I got the error message: package data corrupted. this package: https://slackware.pkgs.org/14.2/slackonly-x86_64/freerdp-git20160509-x86_64-4_slonly.txz.html converted for me no problem.. i did discover that it also requires gstreamer and gst-plugins-...
