After a few hours work I am very close to a ‘rc’ version of ArchBang. Still need to test/check uefi. Did miss a variable in syslinux config but have fixed that. If you hit TAB at boot screen you will see ‘%ARCH%’ which should be x86_64. Am uploading a new version now so should be … RC iso version on the way
I checked out archiso gitlab the other day and it turns out I am way out of date with source file and recent changes. Will have to work on getting source up to date along with config files. Am really hoping it will reduce image size. Next release will be ‘rc’ until I can be … Last update….
Yesterday uploaded a new iso just to keep things up to date. Still working on an Artix version kind of works but needs a little more work before I release it. Autumn release I am really tempted to switch to a tiling window manager but I know that would upset many users. Am messing around … Weekly update
Finally a Summer release 😉 Updated packages and minor fixes to themes and configs. Have removed /etc/skel source from iso as it is not needed post iso build, will not affect installation. Am going to work on a script (which I should have done years ago!) to make changing theme colours easier. Always forget one … Summer Release
Well 5.7 kernel is here, some minor updates and small changes to iso source. Gone from Alpine linux back to Arch then too Artix runit on my laptop. Still thinking about a systemd free version of ArchBang. Did not have that much interest in it before so maybe Vole will go Artix runit. Truth is … Early update
One of the biggest issues (not using the word complaint) is that ArchBang does not provide any online support. Currently I am the only person working,running ArchBang. It would take up far too much time to manage a mailing list or forums. I can offer limited support if related to ArchBang via email. Anything else … Technical Support but not from Microsoft ©
Am currently uploading a new iso, mainly package updates. Had a little spare time this morning to make some changes to look and feel or ArchBang. Changed Openbox and Gtk3 themes. Colours in dunst, dmenu, conky and tint2. Also have made lxterminal a little less black 😉 Was tempted to add battery support to tint2 … New iso and some themes updates
I have possibly the best weekly downloads of ArchBang for years. Still amazes me that ArchBang is popular, even in these difficult times. ;-)Am going to test if ArchBang will install to a usb device/drive. Initial attempts kind of failed as I think my usb drive seems a little flaky so am going to try … Very high downloads of ArchBang… USB installs
Have been using DWM on and off for a about a month now. I still seem to drift back to the comfort of i3, purely as I am used to running it. Dwm does tile better than i3 out of the box. That said I added autotile (AUR) to give a more dwm like experience. … Messing with DWM
Looking at downloads of Project Vole which for latest release are only two. Given that ArchBang gets near a thousand downloads in a week. It is a real shame because I really like Alpine Linux, small, fast, easy and no real bloat. Will for now focus on ArchBang updates until I get more interest in … Project Vole update
