modules from cch
These modules is developed under slax-remix-09, but I think they can also run on Porteus well. The web site address is:

Re: modules from cch
i'll test a few hopefully they're ok 

LibreOffice-3.3
A Open-Office fork, LibreOffice-3.3, is now downloaded from:

Re: modules from cch
Fear for OpenOffice development to be put under a foundation were raised long before Oracle's acquisition of Sun. The developers of OOo quit the Openoffice.org project and formed the Document Foundation. LibreOffice-3.3 is it's first release. This module was converted from rpm-installer version and came with shout-cut.
Re: modules from cch
LibreOffice updated to 3.3.2
Only official sources are included in this module.
No modules needed but Java. You can also find JDK in Java directory.

"Have you tried to compress it to maximum with mksquashfs -b 1M"
i wouldn't do that as higher compression rate means more CPU power for decompression and slower system. default -b 256K is a good choice - IMHO.
Let's stick to the standards....

I'm sorry , but with 1M of Block Size , it works without any problems.But , If you said

Re: modules from cch
I don't think the block size will make enough difference to justify the extra passes during compression. Decompression should be just as quick however the difference in size due to a 1M block is not worth the trouble unless you are talking about HUGE files.
Thanks for this libre release ... i think it will be well used.

Re: modules from cch
@brokenman
in the slax times i have made comparison of slax-remix booting speed (in Vbox) when modules were compressed with different block size. the fastest was 64K if i remember correctly.
you can try to repeat the test with xz compression.
i'm wonder of the result

Re: modules from cch
Ah yes. I think i remember it, you were typing a commentary in a text editor next to vbox. I'll run the tests with xz when i get a chance.
Interesting ... here are the results from my test

Re: modules from cch
as you can see with little bigger ISO size you are getting nice performance boost
