Re: Suggestions
I am just discussing the pros/cons of this in another thread now. I think I will ship it in the base folder and use a custom script to update it (and other browsers).when Nemesis goes stable will the iso builder have a firefox module or will you leave firefox in the base of the iso?

Re: Suggestions
I have it in my ISOs and download updates via USM that go into the modules folder. Deactivating and deleting the prior module once the new version proves itself. It's only about 53MB.

Looks like we move with the times or get left behind. As of firefox v43 gtk3 is required. There was talk about switching it off until firefox v45 but in the arch update it looks like firefox will pull in gtk3
What about people that want firefox on a lightweight distro without gtk3?

Re: Suggestions
Thanks for the link. looks like it's settled. I will have to make a custom firefox upgrade script.

Hi v3.4 Nemesis seems nano is not there? Any chance of including in next build if space an issue? I can live with mcedit otherwise
I have a build package using the pre-compiled binary but I stopped work on it and it needs its user.js or prefs,js fixing which I had not pursued but could pursue it or brokenman could look into it?
My download is about 50 megs
I think that is building from source so a download of 100 Megs plus.wes gots to builds it ourselfs ... apparently... https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/firefox-gtk2/

Re: Suggestions
Nano is really a nice feature and at the same time so intrinsinc to arch, that one would be lost without it.

IMHO... the potential of the "Adeos" (nanokernel)...
Computer security: Security by designSecurity by design, or alternately secure by design, means that the software has been designed from the ground up to be secure. In this case, security is considered as a main feature.
Some of the techniques in this approach include:
The principle of least privilege, where each part of the system has only the privileges that are needed for its function. That way even if an attacker gains access to that part, they have only limited access to the whole system.
Adaptive Domain Environment for Operating SystemsAdeos has been successfully inserted beneath the Linux kernel, opening a range of possibilities, such as SMP clustering, more efficient virtualization, patchless kernel debugging and real-time systems for Linux.

Have you been successful at doing things on this nanokernel like
compiling a new kernel module?
running jack for those wanting their music stuff with no lag?
---I don't and have not used jack myself but no harm in asking

Not yet... I'm having problems with src2pkg if I stop getting "libsentry" Ooops! errors... (I'm using my own toolchain)...
I will try to compile... and configure Adeos (a fault tolerant... self-healing kernel)
because I like the idea of "secure by design" which is by default baked into Minix3.
This is also why I like the Porteus "live" modular design and the ISO boot cheatcode. Malicious code hates compressed static privileged environments.
In theory IMHO... I believe Adeos combined with various performance based (heterogeneous) binaries could give Protools (Apple) a run for it's money.
Then Jack... Audacity... LMMS... Rezound and Rosegarden can overcome "realtime" DAW/DSP latency issues if the power of the GPU is also harnessed.
Then... (and only then) can I go back to being a musician (recording engineer) instead of a (computer) technician...

Re: Suggestions
I don't know if its an obvious suggestion but one idea if we are now moving to Manjaro as a base and to stop members from using pacman to update stuff and getting out-of-sync to Manjaro
---might be to:
edit any /config for modules file to remove any server for Arch
edit any file in /etc that might lurk there to remove any reference to Arch?
As you can tell I want my xmas present and I want it now.

Re: Suggestions
I believe all the default servers only pull from manjaro. Also the setup-pman script takes care of ranking mirrors and allows you to choose a country that is closest to you. Thanks.
