This version (161205) is my fourth build of RaspArch
The first version is from 150414. The second is from 151107. The third is from 160312 specially made for the new Raspberry Pi 3. This version (161205) and version 160312 of RaspArch can of course also run on the “old” Raspberry Pi 2. RaspArch is a “remaster” of Arch Linux ARM. The original compressed system is of 231 MB. After I have added the LXDE Desktop environment, PulseAudio, Firefox, Yaourt and Gimp the system increased to 700 MB....

Banana Pi BPI-R1 bad for routing.

Came across this while thinking about related ideas, a banana pi music box with m.2 SATA and a Car Computer network (i.e. a consumer LAN in the context of a car).

Banana Pi BPI-R1 Fails into an insecure state

Seems I am late to the party.

This is pretty bad, given how it is promoted on the www.banana-pi.org website.

Edit: Looks like the website is gone now. archive.org has a copy.

I have made a new version of ExTiX – The Ultimate Linux System. I call it ExTiX 16.5 LXQt for the Intel Compute Stick. Build 161203 is only for Intel Compute Sticks. I.e. you can’t run the system on other computers. Build 161203 uses “my” kernel 4.8.0-26-exton-IntelAtom with special patches, which I have Linuxium to thank for.

NOTE 161203
Build 161119 – my first for the Intel Compute Stick – has been replaced by Build 161203. Some errors in the first build have been corrected....

A Python OpenBox pipe menu for recently used documents

I threw this one together in a few minutes as the others I've been able to find on the 'Net were shell scripts. This looks nicer, and can be expanded upon easier (I'm thinking icons in the future)...

Pass True for the parameter show_path if you want the path displayed in the menu (shown in parens following the short file name), otherwise it will only display the short file name.

Code:

#!/usr/bin/env python

About Linux For All (LFA)
The system is based on Ubuntu 16.10, codenamed Yakkety Yak and Debian testing (Stretch – upcoming Debian 9). It’s a total rebuild. I.e. nothing is left of the old LFA system. All installed packages have been updated to the latest version as of 161114. Kernel 4.4.0-19-exton is replaced by kernel 4.8.0-27-exton. (4.8.0-27 is the latest Ubuntu kernel). You can download “my” kernel if you want to use it in another Ubuntu/Debian system. I have also installed Nvidia’s...
