@Keef ,

ah, okay, thanks much for your help. I will have a look on it in the next few days.... little busy at the moment, but I appreciate your information. I'll tell you if it's working for me.

@Keef ,

yes okay, very most appimages run in EasyOS, but with freecad I always have problems. It's so much download volume, around 800 GB, and I'm only on 4G data connection. If it doesnt work, must dl again..... a new SFS would be better ....

Thanks again

BarryK , I was laughing much about your holiday experience post. I had similar experiences with cheap airlines, Scoot for example. Zero customer service and so on. I had a cheap flight too, when I was in Vietnam last year, but their personnel causing a lot of unnecessary problems. In the end I book...

Hello everyone, I would have a wish too: could someone make a SFS for a new freecad version? 0.18 is very outdated now, and the new versions have so many new features, for the arch module as well as for cam/cnc processing. I've downloaded the appimage of version 0.20, outdated now too, but it doesn'...

pp4mnklinux Hi, i dunno why many are using etcher and rufus, do as you like, but the easiest thing for usb is easy dd, or juust manually "dd if ... of /dev/sdb". Me myself, I normally install directly on hdd: empty ext3 partition, then make a folder, named easy for example, put in the 3 f...

bugnaw333 thanks for your reply. Well, I must let repair my *big' Laptop ASUS core i7, Nvidia graphics too. My screen is broken, but here in Philippines they can repair everything, even changing battery of cellphones that have non-removable batteries *lol* OK na, its working - error or not, I can u...

@BarryK

okay, maybe a problem with my graphics, its just a netbook, but anyway in former versions of EasyOS I didn't get errors. However, thanks a lot ... its working, ignoring the error * hahaha.

Hello everybody, I've just installed (fresh on empty partition) Easy 4.5.5. It's working better than ever, but one thing is not perfect anymore: Solvespace doesn't start from the menu, it's working from terminal input, but I get an error. solvespace-error.png I'm in mechanical engineering, solvespac...

Hi @ don570,

would like to download, but where is the file? google says it doesn't exist anymore.

Hello to all,

hmmm, I know that limine is very good .... on USB I'm using it too, just on desktop I'm too lazy to install.... still using grub2 .... hahaha

Berto

Hi,

yes I support this wish....

Regards, Berto (Norbert)

I got this from JingOS::

Useless for me to try again today, I'm on 4g hotspot only, and we have storm ...

Hehe, one more reply to myself: I dunno anyway what for i need linux on tablet? I even got Android Open Office running on my CP. What linux progies else i need on mobile? I'm not criticizing Barry, but with Android I have everything also. I'm not open source fanatic, paid programmers are delivering ...

@bugnaw333 again ...

Ive tried myself na. Seems HK server really is down, or the link doesn't work. I can't download too.

If searching for long maybe we could find a mirror, but for me it isn't worth it. For desktop I got EasyOS, tablet I don't have, and for cellphone android is enaf also ....

Hmmm bugnaw333 I don't know, I have only seen it on distrowatch. I didn't try to download coz i don't have a tablet. My last information was that they are planning the same functionality for desktop also, but as far as i know you still cannot run android apps on desktop - only linux progies on table...

BarryK Concerning your post: https://bkhome.org/news/202210/fydeos-alternative-to-chromeos-works-on-pcs.html Hi again, Barry, did you have a look at jingos? https://en.jingos.com/ Just as inspiration, I know you can do it alone and better :-D I didn't ever try it, but on the first sight it looks go...

je55eah Well, I cannot really help you - the last time I used it was whith debian stretch, but one thing is clear: you will not get a higher resolution (among other features) without guest additions. And yes, they must be installed inside the VM. Maybe try to install the last EasyOS Pyro ISO. I rem...

Ha! Warning!

I forgot please if anyone tries android_x86 do not install grub from the installer iso!!!

I dunno, maybe they have fixed already, but i had many problems with their Grub2. Use another bootloader or grub from another distro, not from Android_x86.

BarryK I have read your blog about running EasyOS on an Android device. That's a very good idea.Tablets and even cellphones have so much memory and processor power nowadays. That shouldn't be a problem. I didn't download yet, I'm only on 4G data connection, must wait until weekend is over, but I'm ...

ETP Ai sorry, should have known London. I've been to London many times But that's around 30 years ago. The newer buildings I don't know, Aside from that, I'm living around 12000 kilometers away, in Barry's timezone...... I'll send some pics, but it's almost middle of the night, so tomorrow somewhen...

bugnaw333 Hahaha, my sda4 is the extended partition, that's why not shown. Well, I'm thinking of going back to no icons at all, then using xlunch again, everything has advantages and disadvantages... But I don't like landscape or city backgrounds - if you want to arrange icons then, theres always s...

Hi @bugnaw333

? dunno what for, but it's Christmas soon, your wish will be fulfilled. Very interesting background picture, and well sorted desktop yours. Mine (well sorted too, but another way) is looking like this:

Good day altogether, I’ve added some more Appimages and MS-Windows-Programs, but I don’t explain them all this time. The 2 most exciting for me are: -FreeCAD_0.20-1-2022-08-20-conda-Linux-x86_64-py310.AppImage: the first Freecad AppImage that is working for me. Yeah! Now I don’t need to switch to Q4...

@ scsijon

Yes okey I'll do so at night, I'd like to know also what's the problem....

At the moment it's too hot here to use laptop. I don't have aircon.

I still had a fresh install of EasyOS-4.4 on another partition, and tried to download/install there. Everything works well there. I can install with PKG and the files downloaded with browser too. Very strange, but I'll use that partition now. Maybe somewhen I'll get back to it, but for now I don't h...

@FeodorF

Ja danke, ich probiere es dann nachher.

@scsijon

Yes okey, thanks, I'll try this later too. I didn't delete any packages: in 4.2.7 not, and in 4.4 also not.

@BarryK

I've tried to install the downloaded xz packages, but get errors also. Tried to extract then, but get an error too.

Good morning, FeodorF ja, das gleiche wie bei mir ... BarryK and scsijon I've tried again from commandline, but no useful message output. then I've tried in EasyOS4.2.7 I get another error message, but it doesn't work also. The strange thing is, that installations from pet-dunfell and pet- noarch ar...

@scsijon

Hahaha, yes sure. Goodnight then.

Download was no prob, but now I have a lot of xz files and don't know what to do with them ....
