@…
Bug hunting 101: for some obscure reason Spectacle wasn't working in Slim 6.7. (Re)install tesseract and leptonica (available in your repo anyway), all good!
It's always the user that effs something up 😆

Order restored. Experimental KDE by @… Flatpaks as applications. Kernel 7.0. Slacker0ni repo for all goodies. Homebrew and/or distrobox possible also. As immutable as a mutable distro gets.

Terminal in Slackware -Current, running kernel 7.0 and the barebones KDE 6.6.4. All big applications as flatpaks, can run homebrew and/or distrobox on top also.

Think I've gone through 4 kernel updates in a week (7.0.4-7) on Gentoo and Slackware. All went without any notable hitch. We should be grateful and happy with such responsible and dedicated maintainers among us 👍🏻 I certainly am 🙏🏻

A fresh delivery of slackosundries, my totally random collection of Slackware sw packages.
The latest version of Brave Origin (1.91.149-1) is there for the taking.
Also: a desktop client for Filen encrypted cloud storage is included in slackosundries now. I use that myself. The other packages had no updates.

Slackosundries is turning into my own little repo, with at least the packages that i use myself also. Hence the addition of Librewolf x86_64 in there.

There's never that much going on in jtown. Just being the latest and most updated KDE out there.

It's Saturday, updates are available.
Most notably Fresh Editor getting a bump to v.0.36. And Brave origin obviously.
Go get them before it's Wednesday again 😎

Done and dusted. I've created SlackoSundries, my totally random collection of Slackware pkgs. Right now: brave-origin-beta, the fresh-editor and bottom, a great h or btop replacement. Updates where applicable every Wednesday and Saturday. You can find it here:

Really appreciating all great work @… has done in bringing all extra goodies to Slackware. Case in point: Mango, Noctalia shell, Ghostty terminal. And i brought Fresh editor along 🤓 More on that tomorrow!

For posterity. The distro I ran the longest was ArchLabs, for 18 months. Epic!
Next month it will finally be surpassed. Then i've been running Slackware KDE by @… for a grand total of 19 months. Thanks mate 🍻 !

Yep, the odd one out. I downloaded Brave Origin (on Linux it's free) and made a Slackware pkg of it. Even opened a repo to share, but I'll have to upgrade my Codeberg to upload files with a size over 100Mb. Fair enough, another to do. I'll be back.

Because I always use eza, I also had to install rust-opt on Slackware. Which is a straightforward install, but it takes some time. All this for your beautified ls 🤣

Yep. Done. Version Beta v1.91.135 of Brave Origin for Slackware by yours truly is available. Plus some additional tweaking tips by me. Happy browsing!

Procrastination might sound wasteful, but it's actually great
Slackware Mango/Niri up and running, with all extensive goodies from the slackosaurus. Received some great feedback during my travails, so all's dandy now.
That leaves Gentoo dwm for tomorrow, and luckily enough that's a public holiday here. Or was it already in the back of my mind? 🤔 Probably 🥳 Cheers! 🍻
