Installer modification
1 Attachment(s)
With the attached patch I propose some modifications to the install options of Slackware installer:
You can try the netinstall.iso. Cheers |
Pat,
Please consider adding /etc/default/sysctl: Code:
# /etc/default/sysctl Code:
# Configure kernel parameters: |
In the latest Sun Aug 19 23:59:17 UTC 2018 update, the asc file for kernel-modules is missing, thus causing slackpkg updates to fail for this package.

We can have another xf86-video-ati update from its GIT repository? https://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/dr...video-ati/log/
Last changes introduced more robust mechanisms for preventing nested drmHandleEvent calls and consolidates the TearFree logic. And from my (already 3 days long) tests, this is translated in layman's terms as a faster 3D and a better TearFree behavior when someone chose it instead of using a compositor like Kwin (from Plasma5, aka "no effects") - both specially useful while using budget Radeon graphics cards. In other hand, I do not think that those changes can have unexpected side effects, because practically they are backports from AMDGPU video driver and the previously noticed bad interacting of GLAMOR with Intel SNA should not appear again, as the GLAMOR logic is barely touched. Also, apparently that was in fact produced by some issues in the main GLAMOR code from Xorg, as they was fixed by 1.20.1 which merged the two GLAMOR patches previously adopted. Finally, please note that similar improvements are applied to AMDGPU video driver: https://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/dr...eo-amdgpu/log/ So, probably is useful to update it too from GIT. |

In doinst.sh.gz i changed Code:
chroot . /usr/bin/fmtutil-sys --all 1>/dev/null 2>/dev/null Code:
chroot . /usr/bin/fmtutil-sys --missing 1>/dev/null 2>/dev/null Bibtexu is part of the omega-project, which is excluded as it's most likely not used by anybody since many years, so --disable-bibtexu may be added to texlive.Slackbuild as i also removed it in texmf_get.sh. https://tug.org/pipermail/tex-live/2010-May/025996.html In slack-desk, i removed "texlive-fonts" as this is now part of texlive-extra on SBo, and texlive-fonts doesn't exist anymore. I also got mail about the doc-symlink from /usr/doc/texlive/doc to /usr/share/texmf-dist/doc which only contains "latex". This is intentional: -the koma-script package forces by liceence to ship the documentation( doc/latex/ ...) -all the docs from texlive-extra and texlive-docs are there, if those packages are installed. Johannes |
doinst.sh from texlive contains
Code:
( cd usr/bin ; rm -rf man ) A workaround fix is to remove the symlink in within the buildscript, but i'll fix this within texmf_get.sh. |
Make the keyboard selection in the installer for 15.0 more descriptive and intuitive. There might be some new users that is not familiar with the terms qwerty/us.map, azerty/fr.map +.
This script should also be available in pkgtool-Setup with the option of setting the locale as well. This is something some users might have challenges with after installation. |
In pkgtool have an option to install Sbopkg and another option to install slackpkg+.
|
Add a "rescue" option when booting with the slackware DVD/USB. This rescue option could give the user a ncurses windows with some options to:
- mount an existing linux system (with a proposed mount of root) - rerun lilo - chroot to existing root partition - partition tool - option to run fsck (with umount as standard) - option to run ddrescue - option to run smartctl - option to run memtest86+ (make this a default installation in slackware) |
Add the Recovery Boot Option as standard in 15.0:
https://docs.slackware.com/howtos:sl...ry_boot_option |
Regina-Rexx.
|
Implement some of the faster boot options as standard. As described here:

I don't know how feasible this is (I'm guessing not very), but it would be nice if, when a package is upgraded, a .conf.new file would only be installed if the default configuration file changed due to the upgrade. It is annoying having to check these files to see if anything important has actually been added.
