dCore Import Debian Packages to Mountable SCE extensions > dCore X86

dCore-5.0.alpha1 released

<< < (6/18) > >>

Jason W:
Thanks Robert for pointing that out, I forgot that flwm_topside was loaded as part of Xsetup.sh.  Maybe as part of each window manager or desktop environment package the startup script could contain " [ -s /etc/sysconfig/desktop ] || echo fluxbox > /etc/sysconfig/desktop " substituting fluxbox for whatever appropriate name.   That way if the preferred DE or WM package is specified at boot, that would hold regardless of what is later imported and installed.  And if no DE or WM is specified at boot, importing and loading one would just work but none would overwrite an existing /etc/sysconfig/desktop entry that is either set at boot or with a previously loaded WM/DE package. 

gerald_clark:
I can't find anything that sets /etc/sysconfig/Xserver, so how do you get X to start at login?
I stuck something in bootlocal.sh to create it, but that doesn't seem right.

roberts:
It will be fixed in next cut. As there is no Xvesa in dCore, .profile can be adjusted as follows.

[ ! -f /etc/sysconfig/Xserver ]

with

[ ! -f /usr/local/tce.installed/xorg ]

This will allow X to start upon login.
This change can be effected now in your .profile and backup will restore it.

Without the change just typing startx at the prompt works as expected

roberts:
RE: desktop specification...
I left it to be user specified by boot code to be consistent. Otherwise every possible WM/DE that could be imported would have to have a local server startup script be created and merged during import's sce creation. Of course, it can be done. The question is the effort worth the result?

vinnie:
First, I tried dcore through virtualbox on fat32 flash stick with creation of a vmdk disk image (VBoxManage internalcommands createrawvmdk -filename ./gialla.vmdk -rawdisk /dev/sdc1).
I did start the distro through an iso (mounted as cd) and installed the packages in the tce directory inside the pen usb.
After I tried to run it directly on the pc.

Ok, after some testing:

1) I saw that during the import of packets in an error like this, also these are purely cosmetic?:

--- Code: ---...

2)I am currently using unetbootin, is there any automated way to install dcore on flash memory or what procedure should I follow?
