The settings for a package (eg $packagename$) in scarthgaps /root/.$packagename$ and container-Daedalus /root/.$packagename$ don't coinside once you change what's in one of them. Wouldn't matter until you change one to suit what your doing and switch to use a package between them without ...

Theoretically, all you should need to have is the list of nameserver lines in resolv.conf under each other for it to work and step-on if unavailable within a preset time, however there are quite a few "accidentally" incorrect in the cloud and we don't have the right to fix them, only their webmaster ...

Considerations are underway to make use of GitHub Self Hosting Alternative Gitea ( https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea ) by a couple of groups I assist with, but everyone concerned with the change at this stage has only read about gidea and worked with the standard github. Requirement to move has ...

My choice would be "depending in what you want to do with it".
Primarily you need to consider this >
Do you need to use the latest or near latest for a specific reason, such as after major bugfixes or prerequisites for a piece of software you must use;
or have you come across a piece of software ...

Does anyone know if there a way to control the maximum amount of memory (ram) and the number of processor cores that can be assigned available to be used by an individual container somewhere?
I'm having thermal and cpu speed alarms, and memory unavailable errors on my old 16core server I use for ...

sorry, but I prefer gimp as most of our scanlators use it. It would be nice to add webp when available to do so.

EasyOS Daedalus-series 6.3.90 (6.4RC1) is released, see blog announcement

https://bkhome.org/news/202410/easyos-daedalus-series-version-6390-64rc.html

Testers welcome!

Note that you cannot update from a Scarthgap installation. Daedalus will have to be a new install.

Barry, Very Interesting ...

Came across this for it's simplicity (both use and visually) and thought it may be worth at least looking at for EasyOS.

I was just wondering how much difficulty it would be to create a container with a full webserver in the standard configuration, (considering local use not online, that would be another whole ballgame that I don't want to go back too,) for development and testing of packages and information storage ...

scsijon

OK, maybe i'll have a go then, or try to create a EasyOS type T2 build as i'd like to get something with containers for this and a couple of others.

scsijon

BarryK, I see that you have started on Trixie from debian in your EasyOs Tree. I was just wondering if your considering creating a pure Debian Trixie based EasyOS build, or is it just to update some of the additional packages you use?
If the first i'll have a play about with adding the Sugarlabs ...

I updated one of my spare boxes with 5.8 and had no problems with firefox. After an hour of playing around i decided to upgrade it to 5.8.1 and the firefox "black screened" a few minutes later. Looking at the monitor settings seemed ok until i checked the screens video status, it said it was in ...

OK, so can it be done in some way to deal with the problem that arrises when mixing 'source package bases'?

I don't know why, but I was thinking that you were working towards a EasyOS Base (Kirkstone at present) plus individual containers for other versions such as void, deb, ubuntu, .... This may have got around the problems of changed and mixed linux's configurations as well as allow other versions to ...

scsijon

I thought you may already have arranged a contact point with a void dev for problems when you decided to use void as a base for EasyVoid. Therefore there would already have been a single-point-of-contact between the two groups. That person would be therefore become the logical point to contact ...

What do we do about updates for packages in EasyVoid when it's the Void end that needs updating?
For instance one of the main packages I use "Opentoonz" I see is listed at 1.6.0 (from April 2022) in your Packages-void-current, whereas the latest working release is actually 1.7.1 (from May 2023) and ...

Just wondering if your going to move into Linux 6 kernels with easyVoid anytime soon.
Yes, of course I have a reason, with a "new" graphics tablet coming to me with a Coffee lake Processor (i7-8559U) and that apparently needs at least 6.2 to work "out of the box" properly and we have 6.6.12 the ...

I had a similar problem with one of my graphic boxes. In the end what I tried was to get a new usb loaded on the core2 online box.

It also seems to have re-enabled/re-added back-in a number of the EasyOS 'default' packages that I had "removed" in 555 (as they were unused and unwanted in the menu lists by me) using the Remove Builtin Packages Menu item. I haven't checked if ...

I was wondering, since there seems to be a number of non-EasyOS packages that could be added to the list for installing, if it would be worth adding under the menu item Setup a Test-Application Sub-menu that could be added for downloading these to be added too, rather than using the running ...
