Running smooth & had 1rst Updater

Post#1 by Karmi » 02 Aug 2022, 14:37

My Porteus 5.0 Cinnamon has worked flawlessly. Had my first Porteus Updater work this morning....think it was my first(??). Updated the 001-core & 002-xorg. Got brave last night 'n tried to create that 515.57 Nvidia module - [HOWTO] make a xzm module driver for NVIDIA video card - that ncmprhnsbl had mentioned, but "Midnight Commander" seemed irritated 'n gave me a good thrashing. I may try again soon...without Mr. "Midnight Commander" tho!!! ;)

good to hear,
have be meaning to make an announcement about this, but have been waiting for some things to be moved around on the server..
there is also a new initrd.xz build (not handled by the updater yet) that you can get from <your_favourite_mirror>/$ARCH/Porteus-v5.0/updates/core/20220723/
and manually swap out.
it has new e2fsck (among other things).
