It works but sometime -cause of the ad popups- it might not work the first time...
I'll try to activate the free leech of the file when I can so people will not have that issues

By installing a login manager, I'd recommend slim:

Code: Select all

apt-get install slim
Will install custom slim package, with menu entry enable/disable
After install (and reboot) it will be enabled and autologin as root, to change that, go in /etc/slim.conf and edit e.g:

Code: Select all

default_user        root
auto_login          yes
as desired e.g. default as another user or "auto_login no"

It doesn't work. Maybe it is because I'm using ROXpinboard.

Btw, I have made and tried google-talkplugin_current_amd64.deb_170905_v01_.squashfs https://1fichier.com/?6iyjgicx96 it works well with Chromium.
Also, skypeforlinux-64_170801d-deb_v01.squashfs works but it need v5+ skype from the other side to communicate (skype is droping support for v4)

Strange, works for me, what exactly doesn't work ?
ROXpinboard or not doesn't matter, btw.

Thanks for the info :)
It was a simple thing in the end.

(edit) It seems that it auto-logins sometimes. Will look into that(/edit)

Hi Max,

Probably "jessie" is missing in that line, so edit /etc/apt/sources.list.d/compiz-debian.list :

Code: Select all

leafpad /etc/apt/sources.list.d/compiz-debian.list
And make it this

Code: Select all

deb http://download.tuxfamily.org/compiz/debian jessie main
Save the file.
And then:

Code: Select all

apt-get update
apt-get install compiz-reloaded
Fred

Yes, install chromium and from terminal:

Code: Select all

chromium --no-sandbox --disable-infobars
Or edit the .desktop file for chromium in /usr/share/applications:

Code: Select all

Exec=chromium --no-sandbox --disable-infobars
Then run Chromium from Menu

@Max Headroom

Your menu.lst looks fine to me, your saveme.dat is almost full ? Then resize again or delete some files.
If you go with filemanager in /mnt/saved, select all , right-click 'How Big' you can see where's the most space taken in the save storage.

OK, please check the following:
- what's in /var/log/porteus-livedbg, it should be;

Code: Select all

# Changes are stored in:
/mnt/sda1/live/saveme.dat
- output of:

Code: Select all

df -h /mnt/live/memory/changes
And see what's the size, used, available in save storage

Maybe the resizing didn't work out well, that could be because you resized while savefile was in use.
I'd say, try to resize again from booting without save (Always fresh boot option)

@Max, thanks for the screenshot, it looks like your savefile is around 1GB and the resizing didn't work properly, try resizing again from "Always fresh" boot (resize should be done when savefile not in use), if still not as expected, then better start all over again with creating a completely new savefile, as you wish, size 3.2 GB.
Edit: as for your question about if FAT32 makes any difference, for me booting and saving from FAT32 (with savefile) works OK as with any other filesystem.

It's in /usr/local/bin, "conkytoggle.sh"
