Porteus

Sure it doesn´t have to be gitlab, it was just a thing i´m familiar with. ;) I agree that there has to be something like a "supervisor", looking for script naming, maybe comments and where should it be placed. My "vision" is, that the community is the "control", not a single person. Single persons f...

Nothing wrong, but i thought of the repo in a more colaborative way. Not having a single person (or maybe 2) doing all the work of keeping the repo up to date. Everyone who likes to should be able to contribute his own scripts or send improvements of existing scripts.

Any preferences on where to host this repo?
I would actually prefer a source hoster like GitLab, having a versioning system behind may be usefull.

Hi, there are plenty of usefull (shell) scripts for porteus flying around in the forums, spread over hundreds of threads and postings. Sometimes a script evolves over multiple iterations through out a discussion, making it difficult to find the right/latest version. Is there something like a central...

A very short sample script could look like this: #!/bin/bash HOUR=`date +%H` # replace the values with the hours you want to change the brightness # for easier comparing we use the 24-hours-scheme if (( $HOUR < 8 )) || (( $HOUR > 13 )); then # replace with the required brightness value BRIGHT=50 els...

Screen brightness can be set by pushing a value to a specific file, you may need to look up how your device is named, for me its "amdgpu_bl0". /sys/class/backlight/<your_device>/brightness you can write a short script that pushes a value depending on daytime and let this script execute by a cron job...

There has been a howto somewhere around here on how to set duckduckgo as default search engine with the needed parameters for porteus to get some funds.

It would be nice to automatically set duckduckgo as default search engine when installing a browser using the update tool shipped with porteus.

i've added a bunch of additional language packs.

nice one, neko. Will give it a try later.

machine is working again, needed to run the "Porteus-Installer-For-Linux.com" again...dont know why, updating kernel and vmlinuz worked multiple times before.

Will give 4.18 a try later on.

Hm, seems i have broken my Porteus Installation by copying nekos kernel and vmlinuz to my USB stick, now it won't find the vmlinuz anymore. Need to dig a bit deeper into this issue later.

Hi,

have you tried one or another?
the 0ad-package in SlackOnly is rather outdated (current version is 0.23) and seems to require multiple deps. I didn´t manage to build 0.23 till now cause of the deps.

Hi rava,

if course i could. Will do that later today.
