Re: Games: what about your favorite game on linux
Wow!! cttan.
That's an impressive "mod" and an impressive post explaining it. Thank you.
I wonder if it can be tweaked even further to handle other files, like freestylers?

Re: Games: what about your favorite game on linux
@cttan
Just my 2 cents. As a suggestion, could you not make life easier for the 64 bitters by putting all altered/relevant files into a module which can then be activated?

@Bogomips
Download link provided in the previous post.
@Ed_P
I have not tried other repo but I think the possibility is great as most Slackware package mirror site have almost the same format.

Unfortunately on wrong architecture. So I'll let someone else give feedback on how it turns out.

Hi Bogomips,
I think slackonly repo is available in 32bit usm.
Pls check.

Re: Games: what about your favorite game on linux
I tried this using the module you added and got this:cttan wrote:9. Update slackonly database.
usm -u slackonly
You are done. Start downloading from slackonly using CLI.
Code: Select all
guest@porteus:~$ su
Password:
root@porteus:/home/guest# usm -u slackonly
Use: usm -u <distro>
For example: usm -u slackware
root@porteus:/home/guest# ls -d /mnt/live/memory/images/usm*.xzm

Re: Games: what about your favorite game on linux
@bogomips: you are the moderators forking expert. Maybe this could be a very nice howto: Adding repositories to USM. This will be a surprise to brokenman.

Re: Games: what about your favorite game on linux
@Ed_P
I have uploaded the latest version. Pls download again and try.
When using the xzm module instead of modifiying the script files yourself, it seems like the xzm activation sequence would not replace existing file if any exist.
So I have put in a script to move the current file to .317. So you should see 2 files in the folder like this:-
/etc/usm/usm
/etc/usm/usm.317
I have also included slackonly update(not the latest) in the modded module. So for testing you do not need to do this
usm -u slackonly
@francois
brokenman has built a very robust usm.

Presumably once the activated file has been edited, it becomes sort of persistent:
Anyway, main thing is it's working after a fashion, and if it opens up the slack only repo to us, well and good.
Update Edit 20-6-15 Terribly annoying. Read slacky as slackonly when doing usm on wireshark. So did not reach slackonly. Too optimistic. Back to drawing board.
However did discover something about aufs. Looks like to ensure edit is not persistent, have to effect edit thru another overlay, thus

Additional games needed.

Re: Games: what about your favorite game on linux
Eldevin works surprizingly well on Porteus, as a standalone cliient and in browser (kudos to Haunted Cow!) but I can really do with a lot more linux MMOs (wistfully Neverwinter or at leastRegnum graqde!) in general. Steam is no real solution under Porteus because it's reported to take too much memory overhead to also play the games you want, so the story I'm getting on some linux boards is they're concentrating on using PlayOnLinux rather than Q4Wine (?) along with Arc instead, which would also be a memory saver for Porteus I believe IF POL also works in Porteus. I dunno. I just wanna play!francois wrote:Additional games needed.
