@step when using yadu --text-info --file-op, i can open a new file which clears current contents and loads contents from opened file. Then how do I programmatically reference the new file, is it a new "$1" or ... ? I want to be able to add the file path and name to a history log. There isn't a way ...

You mean a grid of page thumbnails? I don't think so.

what is the underlying gtk widget for print preview?

GtkUnixDialog.

Do you have any yadu binary compiled with html?

No, because the Fatdog64 package repository lacks WebkitGTK, which is a dependency for yadu --html.

step

don570 thank you. In my point of view and in my final thoughts, I'm going to say it's working pretty much without any lag. So it's a positive response for me, or it's a positive response for the Linux. So let's check the version. Let's check the task manager and see it's consuming 730 MB of opening ...

step

stemsee , Fatdog64 has three yad packages: yad_gtk2, yad_gtk3 and yadu. yad_gtk2 and yad_gtk3 use the same code base. The only difference is one uses the GTK2 library while the other one uses the GTK3 library. yadu, on the other hand, uses a different code base with the GTK3 library. Could you ...

step

Sounds good. To create your GUI you could also use Fatdog QuickApps (Menu > Personal > ). Or you could add your own applets to the the Fatdog64 Control Panel. Create file ~/.fatdog/control-panel-applets and/or add files under ~/.fatdog/control-panel-applets.dir. Look at /etc/control-panel-applets ...

step

@stemsee, to add to @p310don's answer, the default crond is a busybox applet. Gslapt package manager also offers dcron and vixie-cron. I can absolutely understand your confusion.

step

That line doesn't look like native fontconfig settings, which come in the form of XML files. You can create your personal configuration XML file ~/.config/fontconfig/fonts.conf, and also split your configuration over multiple files located in ~/.config/fontconfig/conf.d. The fontconfig manual is ...

On behalf of the Fatdog team, thank you @tatemono for reporting the issues and offering a fix.

@Clarity, I'm glad you sorted it out. Thanks for letting us know.

Converting HTML to PDF from the shell Using wkhtmltopdf Wkhtmltopdf is no longer under active development but it remains good. It can convert HTML to PDF using the Webkit web engine, from local or online pages. I've only tested it briefly with a local HTML file on Fatdog 903. Download the AMD64 ...

step

I suppose you could extract the base SFS from your remastered initrd, and modify the bootloader entry to boot the smaller initrd (which is obtained from the extraction) + the extracted base SFS (which is also obtained from the extraction). This technique is described in https://distro.ibiblio.org ...

Gobbi one way to play a sound when the Desktop has finished loading is to write a small file in your Startup folder and set it executable, for instance, file ~/Startup/bark, content rox /usr/share/audio/bark.au . I like to use rox , but you could use other commands instead, such as xdg-open , aplay ...

I also noted that scripts put in the /root/Startup directory don't work when we get to desktop .

They should, as long as their executable mode is enabled (chmod a+x or rox right-click and select "Permissions").

step

Gobbi , thanks for letting us know. The desktop-wallpaper issue will be fixed in the next release. Meanwhile, I have attached a patch file that should fix desktop-wallpaper for you, and for other users with nvidia graphics I guess. To apply the patch file, rename the file without ".gz", copy the ...

step

Thank you! `<c>` is much easier to spot now.

step

To add, I have updated the desktop-wallpaper command, making it easier to set a solid color desktop background. This will be in the next Fatdog64 release, when the time comes.

step

rockedge , would you please be able to modify the print view style sheet to underline clickable links? The current link style is plain text, so when I read a PDF printout I have no clue that a link is disguised under regular text. No hurry. Thank you in advance, and for the improvements you've ...

Calibre 7.13.0 28-Jun-2024 is now available as a loadable SFS. Install it using the SFS Manager in control panel. This version requires Fatdog64-902 and either the DEVX SFS or python3. The viewer runs a web browser inside - as root - not as spot as we usually do to improve security of internet ...

There are a few other tools at your disposal. To single out which processes encumber the mountpoint you can use lsof /real/path/to/mountpoint. To shutdown the system in an orderly fashion you could use MagicSysRq.

Perhaps umount --lazy can help. -l, --lazy Lazy unmount. Detach the filesystem from the file hierarchy now, and clean up all references to this filesystem as soon as it is not busy anymore. A system reboot would be expected in near future if you’re going to use this option for network filesystem or l ...

I just read some reports that the zoom 6.1 series has some "unstable menus" problems. Has the current SFS stopped working for you?

The title says it all - if not, https://pacstall.dev and https://github.com/pacstall.

I followed your instructions @step and it now opens (it opens seamonkey first, and then opens LO).

Glad it does! I don't know about the seamonkey intro. If you post what you did exactly, I can take a look to see if seamonkey can be prevented from starting.

Damn! The same file opens with Program A when ROX activates the icon but with Program B when another application activates the file. Has this kind of surprising file activation ever happened to you? Do you wish that the file opened with the same program regardless of going through ROX or another ...

I came back to this thread to list yet another alternative, in the class of LyX: TeXmacs. Unlike LyX, and in spite of the "TeX" name prefix, TeXmacs doesn't need TeX or LaTeX for output. They provide an AppImage and a static binary for Linux. I couldn't get the AppImage to work (but I'm pretty sure ...

step

I have revived lyx for Fatdog64. You will have to wait a couple of days to find the package in Gslapt. Lyx can run without LaTeX installed, but you need LaTeX for output and exports, such as PDF. For LaTeX and fonts and language files, you need to install texlive separately, you're on your own with ...
