* Make "load=nvidia" work...Using a squashfs module created from nvidia-kernel and nvidia-driver packages. A sample script for creating this nvidia module was added to liveslak, see: ./contrib/scripts/makemod_nvidia. These two packages were created using the scripts from slackbuilds.org: https://slackbuilds.org/repository/14.2/system/nvidia-kernel/ https://slackbuilds.org/repository/14.2/system/nvidia-driver/ Note that the nvidia-driver package was created on a multilib system so that it could pick up 32bit compat libraries (needed for Steam among others), and the CURRENT variable was set to 'yes' so that the nvidia drivers are fully separated from mesa and xorg-server and do not overwrite system libraries: # COMPAT32="yes" CURRENT="yes" ./nvidia-driver.SlackBuild Eric Hameleers2020-04-302-28/+48
* setup2hd: allow custom UidNumber during user account creation...Do not assume 1000 is a good default for UidNumber in all cases - it may already have been taken. Instead, find the first free number above 999. Eric Hameleers2020-04-301-59/+84
* Lots of updates to the package lists for the liveslak 1.3.5.1 release...It's increasingly difficult to keep the XFCE ISO below CDROM media maximum size, 737.280.000 bytes (703 MB). Concessions had to be made to the list of applications present in the XFCE ISO. Eric Hameleers2020-04-306-8/+22
* For PAM based system, allow user in 'audio' group to invoke rt capability Eric Hameleers2020-03-311-0/+9
* Correctly read OS configuration from disk file if present...Liveslak can optionally load a OS config file "@DISTRO@_os.cfg" from within the 'livemain' directory on the boot medium, which contains "VARIABLE=value" lines, where VARIABLE is one of the following variables: BLACKLIST, KEYMAP, LIVE_HOSTNAME, LOAD, LOCALE, LUKSVOL, NOLOAD, RUNLEVEL, TWEAKS, TZ, XKB. During boot, any variable from that file will be set in the boot environment if it has not yet been defined in the init script. You can prevent this behaviour by adding 'cfg=skip' to the boot commandline. Eric Hameleers2020-03-311-2/+2
* Allow cusomization of the UidNumber for the live user account...By default the UidNumber which is used to create the live account is: 1000. The variable LIVEUIDNR can be set to another unused value if you want. Remember, customizations go into 'make_slackware_live.conf' so that you do not have to edit 'make_slackware_live.sh'.

* iso2usb.sh: allow custom parition sizing...Some people asked if it could be possible to reserve space on the USB stick for a custom additional 4th partition, to be used freely and which will not get touched by liveslak. So, there is a new parameter to the script now, here is the help text: -y|--layout <x,x,x,x> Specify partition layout and sizes (in MB). Default values: '$DEF_LAYOUT' for 3 partitions, the '-1' value for partition 3 meaning 'use all remaining space', and an empty 4th value means 'do not reserve free space for a custom 4th partition'. The default layout of the USB stick remains: partition 1 (1MB), partition 2 (100 MB) partition 3 (claim all free space - specified as 0 MB). The script allows for an amount of free space to be left at the end (partition 4, unused by liveslak) in case you need this: This translates to the following DEF_LAYOUT variable value: DEF_LAYOUT="1,100,-1," Eric Hameleers2020-03-311-6/+64
* Mention liveslak version on the boot screen (grub, syslinux) Eric Hameleers2020-03-312-2/+2
* Updates to various package lists Eric Hameleers2020-03-315-0/+18
* Slackware Live Edition: version 1.3.51.3.5 Eric Hameleers2020-02-201-1/+1
* make_slackware_live.sh code to transform the new templates into scripts Eric Hameleers2020-02-201-1/+11
* setup2hd: several usability improvements...- Include disk partitioning (cgdisk and/or cfdisk) in the setup2hd (calling new script 'Setudiskpart'). - Create a non-root user and set the root password through dialogs (calling new scripts 'SeTuacct' and 'SeTupass'). - Attempt to speed up the rsync from the squashfs files to the hard drive. Eric Hameleers2020-02-204-35/+311
* Allow direct scanning via xsane (no temporary intermediate files) in Gimp...This was fixed in Slackware as well in the meantime, but it does not harm to keep it in here. Eric Hameleers2020-02-201-0/+6
* make_slackware_live.sh: some cosmetic fixes. Eric Hameleers2020-02-201-58/+67
* XFCE: updated the package lists Eric Hameleers2020-02-203-3/+5
* Remove KDE4BASE and add DAW as a Live Variant....Nobody used the 1 GB ISO with a stripped KDE4 anyway, so I removed it. DAW is a 'Work In Progress': I want a Ditigal Audio Workstation as a Live Slackware OS with Plasma5. I want to learn if Plasma5 is lean and fast enough for realtime audio processing. Probably it also needs PAM, which will enter the main distro soon. Eric Hameleers2020-02-209-419/+605
* Slackware Live Edition: version 1.3.4.1 Eric Hameleers2020-01-241-1/+1
* Do not add CACert certificates for now; website is offline Eric Hameleers2020-01-241-1/+1

* Slackware Live Edition: version 1.3.41.3.4 Eric Hameleers2019-12-261-1/+1
* Updates to package lists. Reduce Plasma5 ISO size...Note that the Plasma5 ISO size reduction was achieved by removing almost all of the 'alien' packages which originate in my regular package repositories. Which means if you want a Plasma5 Live with calibre, libreoffice, qbittorrent, vlc and all the other goodies, you will have to create a persistent Live USB stick and add my packages as "addon modules".

* CINNAMON: updated package list for Cinnamon 4.4.0...New dependency packages: - pytz - libtimezonemap Eric Hameleers2019-11-241-0/+2
* Remove '--no-absolute-filenames' from cpio invocations...Since cpio 2.13, this option strips '/' and '../' from symbolic and hard links during extraction of a cpio archive like our initramfs. This is implemented as a fix for CVE-2015-1197 but breaks the initrd. And leaving out this option does not have the adverse effect I always thought it would have... archive extraction is still done into the current directory and not in the filesystem root.

* PLASMA5: add/remove packages to make it fit on a DVD Eric Hameleers2019-11-131-10/+11
* Slackware Live Edition: version 1.3.31.3.3 Eric Hameleers2019-11-021-1/+1
* NFS root (PXE boot): add virtio drivers required for older VM...The virtio_pci driver is required in some cases when using older types of virtual machine software. Eric Hameleers2019-11-022-40/+44
* liveinit.tpl: cleanup some code...These lines became obsolete with Linux kernel 2.6 (Slackware >= 11) when the kernel module extension changed from .o to .ko. Eric Hameleers2019-11-021-8/+0
* liveinit.tpl: explicitly tell udevadm to add newly detected hardware...The default for 'udevadm trigger' is 'change', not 'add', so the scriptline basically did nothing. This prevented some network devices from getting initialized because their subsystem is 'pci' and not 'net'. Thanks to Kanaya for debugging this with his Nvidia MCP51 ethernet device.
