Preliminary information
Besgnulinux JWM 3-2 version created three ISO images: full, simple and core, according to the different preferences of the users. In the full version, all generally used packages are installed. The Simple version does not include some packages that not everyone will use. But both versions are basically the same. The Core version is especially for conscious users. There are no packages other than terminal in the Core version. However, in the info window I added in the core version, desktop installation commands are also given for users who are not conscious. Still, I recommend the full or simple version to new users. Firmware is installed on all three dies.
What has been done in Besgnulinux JWM 3-2 version
A lot of work has been done and important changes have been implemented in this version.
First, let's talk briefly about the procedures performed.
As in the previous version, the classic and modern menu were adapted together in this version. You can switch between these menus or use them dually with the "Add to Menu" tool.
Added some important elements to the welcome screen.
The "Add Key" tool has been restructured.
Added translation from png to svg format to the "Image Editor" Tool.
The "Change Keyboard Language" tool has been rearranged.
A total of 21 colors, dark and light, were adapted to the "Change Theme Color" tool.
The "Window Control" tool has been reworked.
The "Panel Control" tool has been adapted again.
The "Third Party Software" tool has been adapted again.
Some adjustments have been made to ensure stable operation of the system.
Major changes
Thunar was adapted to the system as a file manager.
Added 16 different functional items to the Thunar right context menu.
Thumbnails in the cache thumbnails directory have been limited to 70 megabytes to prevent excessive accumulation. You can disable or enable the thunar daemon from the "Activate Tools" tool so that it does not use too much resources.
Mousepad was adapted to the system as text editor. A style file named bes-dark was created for the mousepad. The interface color of the mousepad has been adapted to change when the system color changes.
Set up Xfdesktop for desktop. Xfdesktop was preferred because it does not use too many resources and works stable. Xfdesktop manages both the desktop and has a right-click context menu. It is also possible to change background images.
Appfinder, Mousepad, Thunar and Xfdesktop have been adapted to work with JWM. Therefore, resource usage is in the normal process as usual.
In the full and simple versions, the desktop is enabled by default.
Some packages added to the full version
Brave browser, Inkscape, Thunar, Mousepad, Hardinfo2, Clamtk, Gufw, Keepassxc, Libreoffice, Printer packages, Games, Mtpaint, Viewnior, Smplayer, Deluge, Guvcview, Onboard, Gparted, Synaptic...
Some packages added to the Simple version
Brave browser, Thunar, Mousepad, Mtpaint, Viewnior, Smplayer, Deluge, Guvcview, Synaptic...
Three different versions, carefully developed for different preferences and prepared to be more useful without compromising stability and resource usage, are ready for use.

Note: The Linux kernel header was not installed. If you want to use tools like VirtualBox, you must first install the header with the following command:
I'll try...thanks again,besgnulinux.
ReplyDeleteI am trying to install the simple version 3.2 on to an old 64 bit computer. It loads most of the items listed in text on the screen, but then stops at the following: besgnulinux@besgnulinux:~$ and then sits waiting for input. A previous line of text said there was automatic login, but apparently there isn't. What should I do to complete the installation??
ReplyDeleteRun the Calamares installer in the terminal with the following command and post the output here to help identify the problem:
Deletepkexec /usr/bin/calamares
I tried to start Besgnulinux JWM 3-2 Full. It doesn't work for me: Kernel panic. :(
ReplyDeleteTo check for potential corruption in the downloaded ISO image, perform an MD5 (hash) verification.
DeleteTrying besgnulinux on Toshiba NB505 after loading, the login password besgnulinux and live not working.
ReplyDeleteAfter installation, you will need to enter the password you created. Before installation, check your keyboard as it may not type the same letters in the live environment.
DeleteHello , trying besgnulinux live on Asus 0532h after loading , the login and the pwd you declare ( besgnulinux / live ) not working , any solutions ? Some cfg. file to modify on ISO ? Thank's for all
ReplyDeleteTry the instructions on this page: https://besgnulinux.blogspot.com/2023/02/how-to-fix-corrupted-grub.html
ReplyDeleteAfter the `chroot /mnt` command, enter the following command: `sed -i 's|GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT=.*|GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="nomodeset"|g' /etc/default/grub && update-grub`
After the above command, exit with the following command: `exit &&
umount /mnt/sys &&
umount /mnt/proc &&
umount /mnt/dev/pts &&
umount /mnt/dev &&
umount /mnt`
Restart the computer: `systemctl reboot`
This is an attempt to log in to the system.
Leider kann ich nicht installieren. Calamares bricht Installation ab und bringt Fehlermeldung wenn ich versuche neben MX zu installieren.
ReplyDeleteWir untersuchen den Sachverhalt. Die nächste Version wird Anmeldeoptionen enthalten, um solche Probleme künftig zu vermeiden.
ReplyDeleteI tried installing it on an old 64-bit laptop with BIOS. The live boot starts fine and installs without errors, but when restarting to boot the system, there is no GRUB and the message "no bootable device" appears. I tried with MBR and GPT partition tables, configuring everything correctly, but it makes no difference.
ReplyDeleteThis problem usually occurs in the BIOS settings. Review the options in the BIOS "boot" section again, and if necessary, try all the "boot" options. Make sure the flash drive containing the ISO image is not plugged in while doing this. If this doesn't work, perhaps GRUB is not installed. Alternatively, you can try the solution here: https://besgnulinux.blogspot.com/2023/02/how-to-fix-corrupted-grub.html
DeleteI installed Endeavouros Linux on this laptop, which also uses Calamares as its installer. I did exactly the same thing, and it worked normally. This laptop has a very simple BIOS with few options, and the hard drive is listed first in the boot order. Also, I always remove the USB drive after the installation finishes. I have no idea why it's not working.
DeleteSome simple errors on the computer can prevent login. As a solution, the next version of Besgnulinux will include options like nomodeset, acpi=force, and noacpi. Users will be able to select these options directly from the first screen. This will significantly improve access to computers that are experiencing login problems due to minor errors. These and many other innovations will be included in the upcoming version of Besgnulinux.
