  • evert @brent [deleted] The only "strange" thing is that, thru Flatpak, Epiphany got the default theme of GNOME, no matter the one you use. But it works yes.

    • Brucehankins I probably misspoke ...

      Solus is an x86 system, designed for desktop computing. So that elimates arm based systems.

      That's why I'm asking for a tablet PC ...

      ... (and therefore with Intel proc) like the Chuwi Ubook Pro/X

      And

      There are many different distros that are designed for arm and a touch interface.

      It seems to me that GNOME Shell was designed for convergence, from cell phone to desktop. I personally find the interface relevant on a tablet ... at least as good as Android ๐Ÿ˜‰

      WetGeek Thank you very much for your feedback, and yes I'm not looking for a lot of storage either ... just a hard drive that goes the distance. This Ubook has 256 GB, which will be more than enough.

      My big point of attention is the feasibility of the installation, if the rotation of the screen does not cause too many worries and if a stylus is usable / configurable.

      For Android tablet migration, I think it's feasible (especially if you're on x86 processors) but I have a doubt about an ARM version of Solus ๐Ÿ˜‰

      Axios Yes, the camera wouldn't be too bad, I'm thinking of putting a tape on it anyway ๐Ÿ˜† Thank you for the feedback, and with Fedora, do you experience issues on graphics and screen rotation like there ?

      • Hi everybody,

        Hope you're doing well in these crazy times. I gave a bunch of laptops to people more needy than me a few months ago and I need a portable tool again. And I thought of a tablet.

        Why ? For a bit of code, office work, presentations and web browsing. And, to be perfectly honest, a bit of hobbies with video, (retro)gaming and a bit of graphic design (hence the pen, hence the tablet).

        I could get an Android tablet that would do that to me, but where's the fun in that ? ๐Ÿ˜ƒ More seriously, I wish I could use Linux (and Solus) for more freedom, and that the OS would be supported longer (less obsolescence).

        This brings me to my question: do you think it is possible and usable to install Solus on a tablet PC (and therefore with Intel proc) like the Chuwi Ubook Pro/X ? Details here

        I wouldn't necessarily use the keyboard, just the stylus mainly.

        Thank you in advance, I'll take all advices ๐Ÿ––

        • Back on Ubuntu Touch with a Nexus 5 (and a "pro" phone just for call on a Galaxy S3 on Lineage 16 without microG)

        • For information : No more issue since the last update ( Samba 4.11.9 on 2020-05-29 )

        • Yes I thinked about this because I haven't SSD disks and then I have the time to see boot sequences. And pure technical question : is it possible to define the type of disk at boot time (SSD or not) and to put a splashscreen in which case ? ๐Ÿค”

        • Staudey & Justin I get it, not having a splash screen isn't a big lack neither. It's mostly because of Ubuntu's one that gave me the idea of a simpler graphic charter for Solus (and probably also that I'm not a huge fan of blue) ๐Ÿ˜…

          brent And a huge thank you for your support ! ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

          Not knowing what to do with, I put all the files in my GitLab ... please do what you want with it ! ๐Ÿ––๐Ÿ˜›

          • laky You use Solus without Budgie !? ๐Ÿ˜ฑ Joke aside, it could be an idea ...

            Scotty-Trees ... but yes, only for "long boot" machines (and thank you ๐Ÿค—)

            PS : And so sorry, by :

            I know that the blue is a part of Solus identity but could it be concevable de tenter un boot logo B&W one day ?

            I meant :

            I know that the blue is a part of Solus identity but could it be conceivable to try a boot logo B&W one day ?

            I'm a little tired, I'm starting to mix languages ๐Ÿ˜…

          • This week-end I tested several distros on my laptop, from Ubuntu to Pop OS passing by Elementary. To made myself clear, I came back quickly to Solus ... BUT there's something "minimal" that I love on boot especially on Ubuntu's one : this pure black and white splash screen ๐Ÿคฉ

            I know that the blue is a part of Solus identity but could it be concevable de tenter un boot logo B&W one day ? With my proud new Inkscape 1.0 I made this :

            " Absolutely no " or " Why not " ? ๐Ÿ˜›

            Best regards,
            Franck

          • Hi,

            The "box" of my Internet provider can also be used as a NAS and works on Samba 3.0.37.

            And I have this strange behaviour since end of January : I access to a shared directory of this NAS thru Nautilus, I can see the content but the files are parsed as directory. Sometimes, when I refresh the content, Nautilus ends up recognizing it as a file, but when I try to open it tells me " This is not a directory ".

            Initially I had this in my smb.conf (as seen in the doc) :
            client ipc min protocol = NT1
            client min protocol = NT1
            client ipc max protocol = NT1
            client max protocol = NT1
            server min protocol = NT1
            server max protocol = NT1

            I try to put only (as seen in this issue) :
            protocol = SMB3

            It didn't work and now I have :
            workgroup = WORKGROUP
            client ipc min protocol = NT1
            client ipc max protocol = SMB3
            client min protocol = NT1
            client max protocol = SMB3
            server min protocol = NT1
            server max protocol = SMB3

            I have no access problems but I still have issue to see my files as such.

            Any idea ?

          • Getta91 It's been some months and I can't remember precisely where I found it BUT you can download it here and the author seems to be Starkiteckt Designs (even if I can't find the wallpaper in the ArtStation page) ๐Ÿค”

          • RaMa In the absolute, it's not a bad idea at all ! Especially since, as you say, there will be stock soon and especially scrapping ... it can even be a good action ! ๐Ÿ––๐Ÿค“ And for example, what is the most resource-consuming ?
            With what type of task does the box start to have trouble ?

          • kyrios Thank you, I did this ๐Ÿ––๐Ÿค“

            Justin You mean in InstalledPackages ? ๐Ÿคจ I swear it, I just reinstalled with sudo eopkg install --reinstall packagename at least 20 missing packages who were NOT found with the command. But in which directory this command search in fact ? For example, LibreOffice was in /usr/lib64/ and only in it.

            At that point, I think I have reinstalled most of the missing applications but I'm not sure I covered everything.

            For example, I still have my issue with VLC and QT :
            Cannot mix incompatible Qt library (version 0x50c03) with this library (version 0x50d01)

            I search for QT's packages ...
            $ eopkg li | grep qt
            qt4 - A cross-platform application and UI framework
            qt5-base - Cross platform application and UI framework
            qt5-declarative - Qt 5 Declarative Library
            qt5-multimedia - Qt5 Multimedia Components
            qt5-svg - Qt5 SVG Module
            qt5-x11extras - Qt5 X11 Extra Components

            And reinstalled every single one.

            After I try to sudo eopkg upgrade or sudo eopkg up but it says that I am up-to-date, even if I have still the problem.

            That's why I think I still miss something on my setup ๐Ÿ˜ข

          • Girtablulu Sorry I wasn't specific enough, I was talking about packages that are not in InstalledPackages (so I wouldn't miss any potential missing dependencies) ๐Ÿ˜… Thank you I'll do this !
