Hey all,

JWM settings manager needs to be tested.

I have been out of the loop for a bit, we have had a bout of sickness
here (lots of people in my area have gotten sick, it has been rough.  My
Grandfather also passed recently, after a long and very full life.  So I
will still be out of the loop for a bit, but I just wanted to check in
and say, please test things.  Test every little bit of the settings
manager you can.

Things I want:

Details!  Please tell me if something is unclear or hard to do.

UI reporting! Please tell me if the UI is better looking and easy to
understand, or if it makes things harder, or unclear.

I tried to make things smaller and more compact for low resolution
screens (which often exist on our target devices).  But if I made things
less clear please inform me, and I will work to remedy it.


If there is anything in the ToriOS packages that does not work, please
let me know and I will try to address it in the coming weeks.


Thanks everyone.

Hi Israel,

Please tell us how to start this test:

- which iso file to download/zsync, and/or

- what commands to run

in order to get the program packages, that you want us to test.

Best regards
Nio


Hi Israel,

You have not answered yet. Today I searched for new iso files, but did not find anything made this year.

I started from ToriOS-1.0.iso and updated-upgraded. I also copied mkusb version 12.0.4 from the unstable ppa to the stable one 'ppa'. So ToriOS should grab it when updating-upgrading from now on.

Ugrading mkusb 11 --> 12 needs

sudo apt-get -f install

due to changes in the configuration of the deb package, so it would be good to provide a new iso file with a new tarball with mkusb version 12.

It works now to right-click and select 'open with' and then 'system tools' and then 'guidus' or 'mkusb' to open iso files. I could make it 'standard' too :-)

-o-

*Please test the settings manager*

I did not find anything else that is new compared to what I tested last time (which was quite recently). I would recommend all ToriOS developers and users to test the newest version of the settings manager - the more people who test, the better chance to find and fix bugs :-)

I understand that you are very busy with real life issues, Israel. When can we expect to get a new iso file and/or a new tarball to test?

Best regards
Nio
