I'll try to test it as it gets colder and I have more time but honestly I don't see a big push for it and as ancient as X11 is it still works quite well

Very nice, I would consider Wayland but it still apparently has issues with nVidia drivers and is not recommended
Quote from: VastOne on December 28, 2024, 03:53:08 AMQuote from: PackRat on December 25, 2024, 01:27:36 PMYes, Wayland can be a real pain to get running if you have nVidia.All right RatMan, I have installed VSIDO on a device without nVidia, pure nouveau.. Is the smallest and easiest way to get Wayland buy installing XFCE4?
QuoteTo start an Xfce session on Wayland, you can run startxfce4 --wayland from a tty, which will launch xfce4-session from labwc. If you want to use wayfire instead, you'll need to run startxfce4 --wayland wayfire and add this configuration first, as wayfire doesn't have a --startup option like labwc (see startxfce4 --help for details):

Quote from: Gordon on March 28, 2024, 12:39:57 PMHi VastOne,
Sorry it's been a while but not been around.
I typed in what you said and got the results that you said i would get. the problem is that that is a US keyboard layout not a UK keyboard layout. anyway now going to search and try to find out how to change the keyboard layout. My keyboard is a Microsoft wireless comfort keyboard 5000 so here goes
Cheers Gordon
dpkg-reconfigure keyboard-configuration
service keyboard-setup restart
