What has been done in the Besgnulinux JWM 3-1 release?

In this version, the base design was kept as is, but many changes were made.

Some regularly added software has been removed from the system upon request. The ISO file has been reduced to around 2500 megabytes. Libreoffice, Inkscape, Games, Printer are some of the software that will not install. The installation of these software is left to the user's discretion. The ability to add items to the menu has been adapted. This was also done by request. Users can add or remove items from the menu. A relatively modern menu has been added to the JWM menu. An image of this menu, called App Finder, can be seen below. A second menu is not required; it's simply for user preference. Another significant change is the change to the default file manager. The latest version of the Pcmanfm file manager, which we've been using for years, is riddled with bugs. Therefore, it's been replaced by the Nemo file manager. Nemo works well with JWM and is quite lightweight, consuming an average of 25MB of memory. This time, the desktop is active. Spacefm is managing the desktop. Spacefm is responsible for the desktop. Nemo has been integrated into the system for normal use. 18 items for various operations have been added to the Nemo right-click context menu. These items will make many user tasks easier.  Another change is that the QMPlay2 video player has been made the default, which I find lightweight and capable. Tray and record features have been added to the screenshot software. You can add it to the system tray and record the screen. Some Besgnulinux tools have been reorganized. Some suspicious looking items have been streamlined. The touchpad indicator is active, you can remove it if you are not using the laptop. You can install Flatpak and Virtualbox from the "third-party software" tool. You can also install the Liquorix kernel from the same tool. Also, I don't know if it's necessary, but a welcome screen has been added. You can disable it from running at startup if desired.

Some software installed on the system

Brave browser, Abiword, Nemo, Pluma, Lxterminal, Xarchiver, Gparted, Synaptic, Mtpaint, QMPlay2...

As always, you can download this version, which has been purified from background software other than basic services, designed for ease of use and with care taken for stable operation, from the link below.

Intel screen tearing solution

 

While scrolling through web pages or watching videos, the screen will experience some flickering. This phenomenon, called screen tearing, can sometimes occur in Linux. While not a major concern, it can be a bit of a nuisance. However, this minor issue can be resolved with a simple file.

If you experience screen tearing as described above and your graphics card is Intel, the solution is as follows.

First, open a terminal and become root with the sudo -i command as below.

sudo -i

Then enter the entire command below into the terminal and press enter.

cat >/usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-intel.conf<< EOF
Section "Device"
Identifier "Intel Graphics"
Driver "intel"
Option "TearFree" "true"
EndSection
EOF

After this process, restart your computer. This solution is usually the solution for Intel screen tearing.

There are many options that can be added to this file, as in the table below, but they are not needed much and are not added randomly.

Driver      "intel"

Option      "Backlight"             "intel_backlight"

Option      "AccelMethod"       "sna"

Option      "TearFree"             "false"

Option      "RenderAccel"         "true"

Option "SwapbuffersWait"     "false"

Option    "DRI"                    "3"

Option          "Throttle"                  "false"

Option      "FramebufferCompression"    "false"

Option          "TripleBuffer"              "false"

Option          "Shadow"                    "false"

Option          "LinearFramebuffer"         "true"

Option          "RelaxedFencing"            "false"

Option          "BufferCache"

Watch over 10,000 TV channels around the world with Besgnulinux

 

You have the opportunity to watch over 10,000 TV channels from around the world.

A wide range of TV channels, including music, cinema, culture, and news, are available in just one m3u file. Hundreds of people have contributed to this file, which is shared on GitHub. You can also add channels from your own country and contribute to this wonderful sharing.

If you want to watch TV channels from around the world, the process is very simple. Just enter the following two commands into the terminal and a few seconds later, you'll see a selection of world TV channels. If you are using Besgnulinux, it will be easier to paste these two commands into the Run tool from the menu.

wget --directory-prefix=$(xdg-user-dir VIDEOS) https://iptv-org.github.io/iptv/index.m3u

smplayer "$(xdg-user-dir VIDEOS)"/index.m3u

Smplayer will open as the player. However, I have a better suggestion. You can watch better TV if you install the IptvNator software from the menu: Besgnulinux > Besroot > "Third-Party Software." IptvNator was developed specifically for watching TV. You can watch using Smplayer, IptvNator, or MPV player.

How to install Flatpak and Virtualbox on Besgnulinux 3-0?

 

In the next version of Besgnulinux, these tools will be installable via the "Third Party Software" tool.

If you want to install Flatpak and Virtualbox tools on Besgnulinux 0-3, follow the instructions below.

Virtualbox Install

To install Virtualbox, first download the deb package from the official website with the command below.

wget -c https://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/7.2.0/virtualbox-7.2_7.2.0-170228~Debian~trixie_amd64.deb

Go to the directory where you downloaded the package. Right-click on a space in the same directory and open a terminal. Then, enter the following commands into the terminal, one by one, to install VirtualBox.

sudo dpkg -i virtualbox-7.2_7.2.0-170228~Debian~trixie_amd64.deb

echo y | sudo apt install -f

Flatpak Install

To install Flatpak, enter the following commands in the terminal one by one.

If you install the Flatpak software this way, you will also install the tool I made for Flatpak, which you can see in the image below.

sudo apt install flatpak -y

sudo cp -rf /usr/local/share/kur/flat/flatpakrun.desktop /usr/share/applications

sudo cp -rf /usr/local/share/kur/flat/flatpak.desktop /usr/share/applications

sudo cp -rf /usr/local/share/kur/flat/flatpak-man /usr/local/bin

sudo cp -rf /usr/local/share/kur/flat/flatpak-run /usr/local/bin

sudo flatpak remote-add --if-not-exists flathub https://flathub.org/repo/flathub.flatpakrepo

You can use these commands even if you've already installed Flatpak. The tool in the image below is for installing and removing Flatpak packages, updating the repository, and running software built with Flatpak.
