is there a simple way to create them other than copypaste?
on my windows installation i press alt+3 and get ♥ or alt+30 for ▲
can i somehow reproduce this in linux?
also is there a equivalent program to windows charmap?

#155 Re: Installation » Bootloader Freedom » 2018-02-24 21:13:06

that is a good question wink

that is where i have all your good stuff
i had to modify it quite a bit since i dont have bash on my system
so i put it in a special place where it dont get confused with updates

where it says
$cp /usr/src/refracta-tools/lib/refractasnapshot/iso/isolinux/splash.png
$cp /usr/src/refracta-tools/lib/refractainstaller/syslinux/syslinux.cfg
one has to have his own syslinux.cfg
the splash is optional i think

#156 Re: DIY » Tips for using Palemoon » 2018-02-24 18:13:40

is this really a sandbox?
when i run $firejail palemoon
the first thing i notice that my default homepage is not loading (because its a html file deep down in my ~)
so that is working, good

however when i download foo from www.foo.bar it ends up in my ~/Downloads

dont know what to make out of this

~Put on the right pair of shoes before you take your first step~

Hey Guys
this is for people who prefer syslinux bootloader over grub
or for people who like options and having a choice wink

i really like the refractainstaller (and refractasnapshot)
it is like my new favorite toy, really really big thanks to fsmithred and the people involved

but i dont like the fact that it only supports grub bootloader so i fiddled a bit in the refractainstaller script and i came up with the following

########################
### SYSLINUX
########################

install_syslinux () {
	cp /boot/vmlinuz-3.16.0-4-amd64 /target/boot/vmlinuz-3.16.0-4-amd64
	cp -r /usr/lib/syslinux/modules/bios/*.c32 /target/boot/syslinux/
	cp /usr/src/refracta-tools/lib/refractasnapshot/iso/isolinux/splash.png /target/boot/syslinux/splash.png
	cp /usr/src/refracta-tools/lib/refractainstaller/syslinux/syslinux.cfg /target/boot/syslinux/syslinux.cfg
	extlinux -i /target/boot/syslinux
	dd bs=440 count=1 if=/usr/lib/syslinux/mbr/mbr.bin of=/dev/sda
}

while true ; do
echo "Install Syslinux Bootloader now?\n\t Press ENTER for YES.\n\t Press N for no."
		read ans
		case $ans in
			[2Nn]*) break ;;
			*) install_syslinux; break ;;
		esac
	done

echo "Done."
echo "You may want to edit your syslinux.cfg"
nano /target/boot/syslinux/syslinux.cfg
#done

# INSTALLATION FINISHED - BEGIN CONFIGURE USERNAME, HOSTNAME, PASSWORDS, SUDO

obviously it requires extlinux to be installed
also you need your own syslinux.cfg and splash.png and of course /dev/sda needs to be substituted with your drive letter

i though i share this with you maybe someone finds this usefull

have a nice day everyone

Hello smile

I am trying to compile GQRX without pulseaudio but with portaudio istead

i followed this instructions and added "AUDIO_BACKEND = portaudio" to the gqrx.pro file

$ git clone https://github.com/csete/gqrx.git gqrx.git
$ cd gqrx.git
$ mkdir build
$ cd build
$ qmake ..
$ make

qmake seems to work fine but make gives me this error:
