Extramod
Hi,
Follow the porteus links to download I only found a lxde.xzm single module, if I want to extramod with mate.xzm or kde.xzm where are they or it is possible to do it?

Re: Extramod

Re: Extramod
Extramod cheatcode still works. It is just that the other desktop have not been packaged individually.

Re: Extramod
normalGuy, Bogomips's script doesn't download the full iso file, it reads it on the server!! Only the 003 file gets downloaded.

Re: Extramod
Hi Ed_p
Maybe I'm confused, just confirm:
x3wget:
Use of it:
It's possible to show the number or progressbar of the amount downloaded?

Actually if you save the script to your Home folder and make it executable:
Code: Select all
sudo ./x3get DE /tmp
Code: Select all
sudo sh ./x3wget DE /tmp
Nope. At least not the last time I tested it. viewtopic.php?f=140&t=6678&p=53242#p53242 And actually I don't think doing that is possible unfortunately. The script does indicate when it is finished with the download.It's possible to show the number or progressbar of the amount downloaded?

@ normalGuy
As you are not a novice, I'll explain what I do, and then you can take your pick. The script with function x3get will Extract the 003 module from the ISO file over the internet:

- Save script in a file of your choice
- In terminal su (toor) to run as Root
- Source the file and invoke the function:
Code: Select all
source /Path/to/<Script extracting 003 module from ISO file> x3get <desktop> [<Folder for downloaded module>]
- Upon sourcing the file, you will get usage iinformation like that already given.
- Copy Script & Paste into Root Terminal

@ Ed_P
@bogomips
Thanks!
My wifi - realtek - has been on / off for awhile and I had to edit the wpa_suplicant.conf and it looks better now (knock on wood!!!) that's why I wanted to try other DE to test if it was only a xfce4 problem.
Great job!! Another Porteus goodie 8)
