Putting together a to-do list:

1. As Caramel mentioned, clipboard in and out of container works via the button to exit and icon to flip in, but not for alt-f6 to exit or tray to enter.

2. Fix Xpad. tallboy reported this causes a crash in daedalus. It's a gtk3 tray app ...I wonder if an older gtk2 ...

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 ...

I run Daedalus 6.4.4 from a USB stick. I prefer it over the Scarthgap, because of the great selection of Devuan program packages.
I have used the package Xpad for ages, since it was first available in a Puppy. It is a yellow pad for quick notes. It can be used from the menu, but is commonly set ...

To copy clipboard out of container when returning to the main system, we must click on the flip button, not use the shortcut Alt+F6.

To copy clipboard from main system to the container when returning to the container, we must click on the desktop icon, not on the taskbar.

With a fresh install to a usb stick it doesnt resize the ext4 partition when starting up, so theres only 65MB free space.

Oops!
OK, will fix.

Fixed. Re-uploaded the files.

Kodi flatpak does not work. Blog post:

https://bkhome.org/news/202412/kodi-flatpak-does-not-work.html

However, kodi flatpak would have originally worked. That was probably done in Easy Kirkstone, which has an older version of flatpak.

It looks like the flatpak developers, in trying to fix the ...

EasyOS Scarthgap-series version 6.4.5
I tried to run Daedalus in a container by following BarryK instructions
Alternatively, you can directly download 'daedalus_6.4.5_amd64.sfs', 'daedalus_6.4.5_amd64.specs' and 'daedalus.png' from here:

Printing was broken, or rather printer-setup. I posted about it to my blog, with the fix:

https://bkhome.org/news/202411/easy-scarthgap-print-setup-broken.html

Printing-setup works on Easy Daedalus (Bookworm), because it has cups 2.4.2.

Easy Scarthgap up to 6.0.4 has cups 2.4.7, but when I ...

Yes, this glibc mismatch is a common problem when you install foreign packages.

The general rule is always install foreign packages that were compiled with an older version of glibc than the version in your host os.

That's great, that you are continuing to improve bulma css.

I found that the aufs patch for the 6.6.63 kernel failed. It has been reported:

https://github.com/sfjro/aufs-standalone/issues/48

I examined the changelog, and determined that the 6.6.61 kernel is OK.
Confirmed yes, "6.6.54" aufs patch applies ok to 6.6.61 kernel.
And it works, running it now ...

One other suggestion, not happy with the button in the middle of the screen. Can it be moved to somewhere less conspicuous?

Yes, I'm thinking of having the option of moving it into the tray, on right-hand-side.

Audio worked in my main system and didn't work in daedalus container; i had to change twice the audio settings of the main desktop and the audio of the container started. Parhaps we can say that the audio of daedalus container is not "rock solid".
