Bodhi Linux 7.0 Release Candidate

Afternoon.

I've downloaded and installed the s76 version. Does the 6.2 kernel get HWE updates and, if not, is there a simple command for getting them?

Also, I seem unable to set a jpeg as a desktop background.  Any ideas?  Tells me Moksha cannot import the image.

That one is partly sorted, thanks - for some reason there is a jpeg that will not open in ephoto, whereas others will do so Yet it will open if I use EOG. I have simply used the photos that will open normally for the time being, until I've worked out the puzzle for that one.

Any thoughts on the HWE for the 6.2 kernel?

Well, it was taken on my wife's phone, the file extension is .jpeg - and it was the wallpaper on the previous Linux Mint installation on that machine. I am reasonably certain it is what it says it is, though I might try running it through GIMP and exporting it as a .jpeg to be sure.

It was some oddity with the file extension. I just renamed it to .jpg and it works fine.

We have been working hard to provide localized (translated) versions of Bodhi-quickstart. Much thanks to the translators for their hard work and R0bur for his suggestion to just use a shell script. Getting it all to work with Chromium and on the upcoming ISO was a major pain tho.

Supported languages so far

• BE        Belarusian
  
• DE        German
• EN        English
• ES        Spanish
• FR        French
• PT        Portuguese 
• PT_BR  Portuguese (Brazilian)
• RU       Russian
• SK       Slovakian

If your language is not supported consider help us translate it. See quickstart_local. Note in time I will move this repo to BodhiDev github page and if you need help translating just ask.

As a result I have added this new quickstart to the BL7 repo and because of changes to it I have made changes to Moksha as well as chromium to support this. To properly update update bodhi-quickstart first. And then update moksha and chromium. Note this a new version of chromium, version 115.0.5790.110. There is also an update to bodhi-appcenter providing Belarusian support but this is unrelated. More updates should be coming soon.

Note updating chromium and bodhi-quickstart does not update the landing page and quickstart bookmarks already present in chromium for non-english locales. You will have to change these yourself if you prefer non-english versions. See /usr/share/bodhi/quickstart/ on your installed system. But if you add new users the chromium bookmarks should respect the locale selected when chromium was installed or updated.

Hopefully i got everything right in all these packages. I have been testing to be sure it works the way I wish on the ISO not installs right on an already installed system. If there are any issues with it let me know.

The question is if youtubers really spare some time with Moksha settings before creating their videos. I can see many of them struggling with Moksha and it seems they test it for the first time. Another point is if ENG as origin version of quickstart is efficient enough to understand the basics. Do we need a more comprehensive tutorial?

Thanks, that refresh stuff goes back to Jeff's elm version of apturl. It is not part of apturl specs and my simple version of apturl does not support it. I fixed this in the quickstart_local repo and will fix the deb file in the repo after work today.
