I don't think it's available in Jessie yet. It is in Ascii, but I had to do a dist-upgrade to get it...then again, I'm on AMD.

Perhaps this will shed more information?

The latest releases of Miyo-XTRA are now available.   Available in 32 bit and 64 bit versions.

It's almost midnight here, so I'm about to call it a night; however, I wanted to let folks know that they're available for download. I'll give more information tomorrow. They can be downloaded from here...

Perhaps it's my warped sense of humor, but your literal and hardline stance cracks me up.

I think I'll stay away from any more Buddhism stuff, because I'm not Buddhicipherous enough to know what's what.

I apologize, and I have edited the post. In all fairness, there are many _____ who practice TM. As the original post stood, it said that "he" was a practitioner of it. However, I can see your point and it's validity.

Why do seagulls fly over the sea?

Because if they flew over the bay, they'd be bagels.

Ah...okay. Before I read your reply (fsmithred), I started wondering if it could be done by debootstrap...but I've never done a debootstrap in my life, so I wasn't sure. Thanks fsr.

I wasn't aware that a Devuan ascii .iso existed yet. I aways install the jessie base system, upgrade it to ascii, remove obsolete packages from the upgrade, and then start building from there.

Long live DevuRefractaRCism!

LOL!

For now...and unless Devuan releases Ascii before I can have these finished...they will be based on Jessie. However, upgrading to Ascii will be easier than ever...I'm bringing obmenu-generator back, and regaining the menu will only take two commands (in the terminal) if a user upgrades to Ascii.

All of the "Miyo tools" have been changed to open as GUIs, and the panel switcher will now change panels with one click, but it also overwrites the autostart file to use the chosen panel...so a user won't even have to modify the autostart file themselves.

Miyo-XTRA has greatly outnumbered the regular MiyoLinux downloads, so at this juncture, that will become MiyoLinux...though a user can still make it into a minimal Openbox desktop (with little effort) if they prefer.

I'm also considering making a Control Center, but that may be something I save for a future release...after all, the purpose of MiyoLinux is to provide a very minimal system that allows a user to "make it your own"...there's only so much that can be done while staying true to that original vision. If I throw all of my eggs into one basket, there'll be nothing to look forward to. LOL!

I'll shut up now...I've already said too much.

Two atoms met for lunch, and the first one said to the second one, "How are you doing today?"

Atom 2: "Not too good; I've lost an electron."

Atom 1: "Are you sure?"

Atom 2: "Oh yeah. I'm Positive."

Wow. Thank you for the kind words ma'am! It's greatly appreciated!

Kind of funny that you used the word "dramatic"...when I searched for music for the video, I used "dramatic" as a keyword!

I like my videos like I like my corn...

Corny.

Whether you try Miyo-i3 or not, I sincerely thank you for your kind words. Take care!

A little overview of Miyo-i3...

Okay...the Miyo-i3 releases are now available.

Here's the condensed version of the release notes...

THE INSTALLER, LIVE USER NOTES, AND RELEASE NOTES ARE LOCATED IN THE DESKTOP FOLDER OF THE FILE MANAGER.

PLEASE READ THE "LIVE USER NOTES" FOR INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW TO CONNECT TO THE INTERNET AND HOW TO CHANGE YOUR KEYBOARD LAYOUT IN THE LIVE SESSION.

Miyo-i3 was made so that users could have a minimal and base system on which to add the software and applications that they choose. Miyo is simply an acronym for "make it your own".

PLEASE NOTE: THERE ARE NO VIRTUALBOX GUEST ADDITIONS INCLUDED IN MIYOLINUX.

Live User Information:

Username = miyo
Password = miyo
Root password= miyo

RELEASE NOTES

While the Jessie .isos were made in December 2017, I'm releasing them as 2018 releases.

These versions of Miyo-i3 are based on Devuan Jessie.

1. In addition to dmenu, Miyo-i3 includes gmrun and the Menutray menu.
2. This release uses Devuan's Amprolla3 repositories.
3. Logout, Restart, Shutdown, etc. are immediate...no warning dialog.
4. Number Lock is included but not activated.
5. Added a "Start Up" sound when the desktop loads.
6. Didn't include GUFW, but UFW is installed.
7. Didn't include an Archive Manager to allow users to choose their own.
8. i3Lock usage (for those unfamiliar with it).
9. MiyoLinux Accessories.
10. Wallpapers are handled with Nitrogen instead of Feh.
11. Regarding the use of Compton.
12. For users who may want to upgrade to Ascii.
13. For users who would like the Update Notifier.
14. Keybinding for opening a web browser.
15. Mounting Removable Devices.
16. How to change the MOD key.
17. Volume Control on the i3bar.

More information for each is given in the full Release Notes.

By the way, I took dmenu (aka suckless-tools) from Ascii to give better font rendering in its menu.

Miyo-i3 is light on resources, but you can make it even a little lighter by disabling Wicd in the system tray.

If you install Miyo-i3, don't be surprised at how the installer appears on your screen...it's i3 after all, but the installer works the same.

For those who have been interested in i3 but didn't feel comfortable trying it, my hope is that Miyo-i3 will help you feel at least a little more comfortable. i3 isn't for everyone, but it's certainly fun to use and learn. Miyo-i3 still tiles windows, but I've included the Menutray menu to hopefully make the acclimation a little easier. Menutray looks similar to the LXDE menu and/or the menu in MiyoLinux...it's made by the same developer who made Obmenu-Generator.   Notes on how to use it are included in the Release Notes.

Edited to add: The Menutray menu is the little icon in the lower right that looks like a little house. Just click on it to open the menu.

Also, while i3 offers a seemingly endless amount of configuration, if you're new to i3, just familiarize yourself with the i3 Configuration file first. It's found in...

~/.i3/config

...or, there's a link to it in the Menutray menu for easy access. After you get the basics down, then explore deeper. A great place to learn more is the official i3 site ...  https://i3wm.org/docs/userguide.html

Edited to add again: In these screenshots, I have my wireless connection commented out on i3bar...didn't want my IP showing here.   The default is to show Wireless and Ethernet. Both show on the i3bar, but depending on which one you're using, the active connection will be green, and the other will be red and show Down...hence the "E down" in the screenshots...not using Ethernet.

Here are some screenshots with the two new MiyoLinux wallpapers...click to enlarge them...

The default desktop with dmenu showing at the top...I moved the Conky to the left side of the screen so that it wouldn't clash with Menutray...

The default desktop with the Menutray menu...

The second wallpaper with a quick adjustment to the conky colors showing dmenu...

...and the second wallpaper with the Menutray menu (different theme chosen)...

Finally, here's the link to where it can be downloaded. Have fun, and make it your own!
