Three themes lxdm 5.3-5; Industrial works.
VSIDO and VSIDO_Plain are a lockout. cannot open display.
startx did not work.

Thanks riV that did solve it, but as bad as Industrial looks I think I will just eliminate a greeter. Do you know if Industrial is the only one that works?

sudo cat for the [display]theme= to get current setting in lxdm.conf
from current setting to Industrial is one of these.
change to Industrial theme run command and reboot. (?) 
sudo sed -i "s/VSIDO_Plain/Industrial/" /etc/lxdm/lxdm.confsudo sed -i "s/VSIDO/Industrial/" /etc/lxdm/lxdm.conf

Subtle changes to conky and the GMusicBrowser Desktop Widget Plugin

Been without wheels for a couple of weeks so I am in tweak mode. Attached is the latest widget for GMB, just save it in your ~/.config/gmuscibrowser/layouts directory and then load it from the Plugins/Desktop Widgets in the settings of GMB

I created the xdgmenumaker 2.1 deb package which allows you to have the dynamic menu, and with some tricks in your own language.

This is my ~/.fluxbox/menu now

Last post by VastOne - November 05, 2023, 12:11:39 AM
Both VSIDO FSA's were updated to the new 6.5.0-4-amd64 kernel

I also vetted and redid the opening vsido-welcome script and it now installs everything cleanly, thank you Jed for your help

You can download the btrfs and ext4 fsarchives at the VSIDO download site here

There is also a How To on how to effectively use fsarchive to get this installed

There is a current a package list that shows everything that is installed in VSIDO. Please review this file and let me know of anything needed, removed or added

I tested the entire vsido-welcome script today, I did a brand new install with the 3 times edited and corrected attached files above and am now 100% confident that they all install without issue with all the latest levels.. I'm sure there are other things we can include and I will dive into that deeper later this winter

Quote from: VastOne on October 30, 2023, 06:12:00 PMThank you for this Jed, a year later I have finally gone through and cleaned up and updated vsido-welcome to its latest versions and it will be available and working again on the next version of the FSA release. I have also attached the changed files in the lib-vsido-welcome.tar.gz listed here. Just extract the files to your /usr/lib/lib-vsido-welcome directory on VSIDO

Anyone who may have downloaded that file, do it again as I have made edits that are now in this latest attached file

Quote from: jedi on September 07, 2022, 03:01:04 AM::) So yeah, ceni is deprecated and on my laptop it runs however it doesn't find the wlan0 connection. (or wlp2s0 etc)  Not sure how this would work out for someone else on a different lappy.  nmtui solves this for most lappy users imo.  Of course one could go to all the trouble of doing it all via the terminal, but with wireless this tends to be a bit of a pain for some. (gasp)  Anyway it definitely works.

So the welcome script, vsido-welcome just needs some lovin' I think...  8)

The following installed just fine via vsido-welcome;
cups printer-driver-cups-pdf system-config-printer printer-driver-hpijs git git-gui git-cvs git-svn git-email mercurial subversion subversion-tools bzr bzrtools cvs thunar-vcs-plugin geany openssh-server

--Lamp Stack  -not installed because of user preference, I don't need any of it yet...
apache2 mysql-server php5 php-pear php5-gd php5-mysql php5-imagick php5-curl curl phpmyadmin rsync cronolog--  don't know if any of it would have worked.  Doubtful as to the oldish nature of some of the version numbers?

--Dev Env for Debian Packaging  installed via apt
build-essential debhelper cdbs dh-make diffutils patch gnupg fakeroot lintian devscripts dpatch dput quilt zenity clipit bashburn keepassx numlockx-- installed

--Image Editors  installed via apt
gimp inkscape mtpaint gcolor3 shotwell darktable rawtherapee-- installed

--No longer in repo's
dpatch=no candidate, bashburn=no package found, gcolor2=gcolor3 now instead and installed via apt, openjdk-6-jre is up to like 19 now, icedtea6-plugin is now icedtea-netx--  not installed

and oh yeah, cups-pdf is now printer-driver-cups-pdf.

So there, if I missed anything let me know...

Now if I can figure out this new jgmenu toy!!!
