Re: EasyOS Kirkstone-series version 5.0

@williwaw, you are right. After second boot, I can adjust background as expected.

Another thing I noticed, not sure what's happening there (see attached screen shots),
Geany toolbar icons vary in size, quite a bit, the same thing in Rox Filer?

Re: EasyOS Kirkstone-series version 5.0

Just downloaded and "installed" the Kirkstone V5. So far it works great. The only issue I noticed so far is having problems switching the desktop background. After selecting a different (JWMDesk-Wallpaper) background and clicking on "Apply" nothing happens. The background stays t...

Re: Limine won't install

@BarryK, Just a thought/suggestion - Maybe the limine-setup could be modified to just create the directories /EFI/BOOT copy the required files *.EFI into it, and copy the limine.sys in the root of that partition and maybe a skeleton limine.cfg. Than run limine-deploy. This would of course require th...

Re: Limine won't install

Just saw release notes on 4.5.3.

Maybe the msdos Boot-Partition is responsible for capital letters showing up as lowercase
letters. Does not really sound plausible? Just a thought.

Re: Thinking about the logo

Looked for EZOS on sourceforge. Looks to me like that the guy's name is "ezoz".
He calls his distro Ezarcher (based on Arch Linux).
Maybe I am missing something. Didn't download and test it. Unfortunately
no screenshots.

In regards to the upper "Z" bar - do you mean straighter or staight

I'll play with it some more, and yes, the original is svg.

Attached the plain logo. I also organized it a bit differently and added a gray "outline" to separate it from dark backgrounds. But of course that all depends on the logo colors itself. If you have Inkscape 1.2 and you open the layer dialog, everything should be self-explanatory. If not, y...

Ok, just renamed it like you suggested. Lets's try it.
The colors can be easily changed, it's just one object,
except the one with the arrow, that would make it two objects
