Porteus

just FYI, from 5.0rc2 onwards the sudo password has been configured to ask for the target users password. ie the root password for root..
in any case, as beny says, su works just as well in a script: su -c <command>
and it's best to change the root password to something more secure

i don't think you can use Exec= in a script like that... simply:

by placing a .desktop file in either /usr/share/applications or /home/guest/.local/share/applications maybe the tor bundle includes one? if not, have a look at the .desktop files in /usr/share/applications to get an idea of the format ... typically, something like this would do: (<parts> to be fille...

How did you fix this particular issue, which file to edit? same as what you did: "removed these lines from (home/guest/) .bashrc." # Append any additional sh scripts found in /etc/profile.d/: for y in /etc/profile.d/*.sh ; do [ -x $y ] && . $y; done unset y I'd like to finally upgrade from porteus ...

ncmprhnsbl if these modules are loaded into openbox 4.0 will it work?

might do, but with the qt5 module for 4.0, because i think there'd be an icu mismatch with the newer qt5..
one sure way to find out

palemoon is now available as a gtk3 build, and i've set the update script to use that .. (so will work with stock 5.0rc2 with adding gtk2) a gtk2 build is still available, so if anyone specifically wants/needs that, i could conceivably add an option for that in the script( otherwise you get can the ...

Porteus 5 rc2 please. (What's the difference?) more than 12 months ;) ..although qtfm seems to be forgiving about which qt5 version is used... qtfm-6.2.0-x86_64-1_ncm.xzm 372 kb md5sum: 86f502b8cb7dc53a97324dfade228544 (includes porteus module actions in ~/.config/qtfm6/qtfm6.conf) deps for non qt5...

I have openbox 4.0 and for some reason my spacefm desktop does not start.

first thing is to try in "always fresh" (no changes, rootcopy, extra modules) to see if something added/changed is the problem..

future releases of porteus will have a "man.xzm", that includes the missing man pages(and the tools necessary to access them), available for download .. maybe via "bundles"..

The most recent lib I found and installed is webp-pixbuf-loader-0.0.1.5,1.txz um, did you get that package from freebsd? :o just guessing, it may be that webp-pixbuf-loader needs to be compiled against the libwebp (or even gdk) present in 4.0 (hint https://slackbuilds.org/) if it's functional, ther...

nope, still the same differing sha256sum: you missed the second part of the process that uses cat | openssl: # Usage: # $ ./megafetch.sh https://mega.nz/#!abcdefgh!1234567890abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFG # http://gfs208n103.userstorage.mega.co.nz/dl/-abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQR...

Is there a way to get files from mega.nz using wget without using a browser?

check out this script: https://gist.github.com/zanculmarktum/1 ... 80ccea8d7e
seems it gets a usable link for wget..

for anybody curious about what wayland is all about (basicly it is the future replacement for xorg), here is an example module showing some of what it(or more correctly: a wayland compositor) can do https://wayfire.org/ Wayfire is a wayland compositor based on wlroots.
