PorteuX has reached version 1.0 milestone! :)

Highlights of this release include the default CPU architecture level set to x86-64-v2 and pipewire being the default audio server (in both the current and stable).

1. Fixed lxdm login not checking the user password
2. Fixed modules activation/deactivation not updating application menu when .desktop files are in /home or /root
3. Fixed LXDE default mixer to pavucontrol
4. Fixed typos in txz2xzm script
5. Added option to set the CPU architecture level (x86-64-v1, x86-64-v2, etc) in the build scripts
6. Added the following build flags to remaining projects: -O3, -s, -flto
7. Added upstream changes to xfdesktop and thunar in Xfce 4.12
8. Added the following to multilib-lite packages: glu, libXcomposite, libXcursor, libXinerama, libXft, openal-soft
9. Re-added sdl and SDL2 to make more games run out of the box
10. Re-added output_sdl.so (mpg123)
11. Removed the following from KDE startup: baloo_file.desktop, kaccess.desktop, xembedsniproxy.desktop
12. Removed i586 build option, keeping just i686, although a full PorteuX 32bit is still not available
13. Removed the following build flags: -m64, -O2 and -g
14. Removed the following orphan packages in GNOME: cogl, clutter, gnome-panel, libmanette and rest
15. Dropped pkexec calls in all DEs (except KDE) for PorteuX stuff, using in-house sudo.py application instead
17. Moved svglib from MATE to 002-xorg
18. Re-compiled syslinux to include new gnu-efi 3.0.15
19. Changed default audio server to pipewire -- pulseaudio applications should work via wireplumber (included)
20. Changed p7zip repository
21. Changed default CPU architecture level to x86-64-v2
22. Improved pulseaudio stripping
23. Updated kernel to 6.6.14
24. Updated Nvidia driver to 550.40.07 (kudos to them for making smaller drivers each new version)
25. Updated GNOME to 45.3 (current only)
26. Updated many packages in both stable and current according to Slackware updates
27. Updated documentation

I have explained it in another post.

Why not to patch fs/aufs/i_op.c?

You said you use Xfce and Mousepad to edit text files, like this:

Code: Select all

$ mousepad /mnt/live/memory/images/changes/home/guest/bash.sh
But then I ask you again: why you want to do that if AFAIK you can achieve the same result by doing:

Code: Select all

$ mousepad /home/guest/bash.sh
