[FIX] fastest-mirror & wonky network - Porteus

forum.porteus.org/viewtopic.php?t=10402
When your network works as it should, my updated version V2022-10-03 and the Porteus 5.0 version V2020-12-13 should behave the very same. The update only will come in effect if you happen to stumble upon such a wonky WLAN as described above (usually you need a laptop and be in an Internet cafe or any other place where an open WLAN is - and all of these I happen upon want your confirmation to ...

3) sync the clock online (if available) using the command: ntpdate pool.ntp.org 4) store the current system time to the hardware clock based on your preference in /etc/hardwareclock (utc or localtime) So, if you use a timezone cheatcode then Porteus will alter the hardware clock time.

The main (first) monitor will display a remote web page in kiosk mode, the second will display a video, in a loop, which is hosted online. I'm thinking the video could be displayed in a second full screen Firefox window using HTML5 but and open to any/all suggestions. Thanks for any assistance, J

As you can see, my script says the suspend took 00:00:25 - but instead of coming back alive the system crashed for some unknown to me reason. Again some extra info is added by my suspend script like the free -m and /proc/swaps stuff. actually I use this function for the swap info: Code: Select all. sx () {.

Looping a screensaver video - Porteus

forum.porteus.org/viewtopic.php?t=11202     2024-02-17T00:00:00.0000000
Is there a way to loop a video as a screen saver in Porteus Kiosk? I've got an MP4 hosted online which is only a few seconds long. I kinda expected Porteus to play this on a loop until a user input dismisses the screen saver, but it just plays through once and then sits on the last frame forever. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

upgrada to 5.0 - Porteus

forum.porteus.org/viewtopic.php?t=11087     2023-11-09T00:00:00.0000000
Absolutely. Download the current ISO, copy the /porteus/base files in the ISO to the /porteus/base folder on your system. Now to be on the safe side I would recommend you rename the /porteus/base folder on your system to be /porteus/baserc1 and create a new /porteus/base folder to which you copy the ISO's /portues/base files to it.

[Solved] Help - Will my WiFi card work? - Porteus

forum.porteus.org/viewtopic.php?t=8753
Most things are working fine, with an exception of one thing: my wireless. I can hook it up with an ethernet cable, but with the way things are set up it would be so much easier for me to get the wireless card working. I've tried desperately to find a solution to my problem online before making a post, but I can't figure it out for the life of me.

Porteus for ARM machines - Porteus

forum.porteus.org/viewtopic.php?t=1203
After you have a working kernel and initrd, you can throw in the rest of the system files. You'll want to include, at the least, a folder in the root of one of your partitions, called 'porteus', which will contain a file called 'porteus-v1.2-arm.sgn' and the folders 'base', 'modules' and 'rootcopy' (you can copy the directory structure from an ...

InterPlanetary File System (IPFS) - Porteus

forum.porteus.org/viewtopic.php?t=11058
That is not how a "file sharing peer-to-peer network for storing and sharing data in a distributed file system" should work. It should be up to the users to decide which files and file formats they want to share, not up to the file sharing network to force the user to convert files. Do you recall which file formats you had to convert so that I can ask either via email or via a bug-tracing ...

save.dat not writable [Solved] - Page 2 - Porteus

forum.porteus.org/viewtopic.php?t=3435&start=15
Think of the thousands of online programs that resize an image that you upload. They would never dream of renaming your original. This is tabu. The original file, created by Porteus, is named porteussave.dat. The expanded file, created by Porteus, is named porteussave-2.dat. And it requires the user to change their booting config.
