Hi KnallKopf,

Hopefully Porteus team can overcome these challenges and move on.

I clear browser cache whenever I login to a bank site.
Other than that save data on USB. Most of the time I'm behind a router.
Normally my Porteus session last a few days. But the current session has lasted for 24 days.
I like to reboot my Porteus session.

Hi francois,

I'm also a 100% fully root person.

Hi francois, I have just bought a 40" Toshiba Android TV model 40L5400VM. Installed Kodi using Google Play and tested it is working beautifully. No clutter as all is built in the TV. Android and WiFi all built in. The only disadvantage is maybe it is slower in startup comparing to old fashion TV if ...

Hi wacojohn, Sorry to have confused you. The BOINC package you downloaded from http://boinc.berkeley.edu/download.php should be good enough.
