Re: Cannot resize BluePup window
They look nice! For some reason the BluePup window on my HP Mini 210 is so big I cannot move it or get to the bottom, top or sides. If only I could shrink it. Thanks MochiMoppel for providing a code fix. There is an alternative: Hold down the ALT key, then you can drag the entire window by pressing...

Re: EasyOS Kirkstone-series version 5.8.3
Chromium in Easy 5.8.3 is a disappointment, as it doesn't support "proprietary codecs" such as h264, which means it cannot play many YouTube videos, especially older ones. I am using official x86_64 binrary packages from Google, also "Download latest Chromium" gets them from the ...

Main reason for that size is change of kernel, bumped from 5.15.149 to 5.15.158. There was some feedback that Chromium is a bit odd...

I guess I'll be the bad one here but new version of Chromium really stinks.

'/n' should be '\n'
'\n' means the new-line character.

OK, so the code you quoted from easy-version-control is working. It will include /home/firefox/.cache in the exclude list. This is intentional, as the cache grows very big, and isn't really needed to be saved. Ditto /root/.cache is in the exclude list. The only thing that I can see wrong with the co...
