Both ISO's were updated, built, installed, tested and uploaded today with no issues.
- Updated to latest SID kernel 3.12.8-1 (2014-01-19)
- Corrected tint2 systray setup
- Updated all applications to the latest SID levels
All files and torrents can be downloaded from the VSIDO Download page (http://vsido.org/template/index.html)
Cool.
Quick question, how does sourceforge work? Can you set it up so that something like
wget -c /<source forge path>/vsido_current.iso
would get the current iso? I guess that would basically be making a symlink on your project page.
Aye, the download page has a link to the wget instructions (http://vsido.org/index.php/topic,307.msg3955.html#msg3955)
wget -c http://sourceforge.net/projects/vsido/files/name_of_file.iso
Sorry... now I see what you were asking.
There is a link that is already there, let me see about a symlink
Thanks for the great idea
Using this as a test.. lets see
latest iso download (https://sourceforge.net/projects/vsido/files/latest/download?source=files=)
That works...
So you should be able to do this... maybe
wget -c https://sourceforge.net/projects/vsido/files/latest/download?source=files
Yes that works!
I have changed the wget instruction page to reflect this method
Well.... it partially works. It downloads the correct file but not as the correct file name... downloads it as 'download?source=files'
Will research it more

Damn you VastOne. >:(
Every time I install & fine tune a release a new and improved build appears ;)
^ Sorry man... but this is easy.. a dist-upgrade will get you there and just using tint2 is the other part... All I did was add a 10s delay to the fluxbox startup on the tintrc file

The following should do it,
wget -c --content-disposition https://sourceforge.net/projects/vsido/files/latest/download?source=files
Cheers.
Way to go the extra mile vastone. I was thinking that you could just put a symlink on the sourceforge server so "vsido-current" could be entered on that wget command you referenced. Just put the command in a bash script then.
@hakerdefo - yes, that works; downloads the 32-bit iso.
@hakerdefo.. thanks for that, it is curious that is downloading the 32 bit version when the default download is the 64 bit
@PackRat .. Thanks mate!
I corrected it on the site... It now downloads the 64 bit doing this
wget -c --content-disposition https://sourceforge.net/projects/vsido/files/latest/download
@VastOne - download works as advertised.
I burned the 64-bit iso I downloaded via torrent and it's still set up with lxpanel. <-- that is because the script to burn the iso failed and I booted old version.
New burn, VSIDO boots to fluxbox with tint2; well done.
^ Thanks Rat Man! 8)
No problem.
I didn't do an install - no time for tweaking at the moment - but I did notice a couple things in /etc/skel that relate to general housekeeping. For your consideration:
1. keep the default fluxbox theme in /etc/skel so every user logs into the VSIDO aesthetic, move the rest to /usr/local/share/fluxbox/styles so they are only installed once.
2. Their are still entries in /etc/skel and /etc/skel/.config for window managers/DE's that aren't part of the default install anymore - .i3, .openbox; maybe remove those.
The overall user interface is good (as if fluxbox can be anything else!). Another excellent effort.
