Sparky applications / Installing Steam

Last post by Ze_Mind - June 22, 2024, 01:22:30 AM

When I go to install Steam, it wants to update, so I do so.

Then I get this error:

Sparky applications / Re: 'APTus AppCenter' not usea...

Last post by pavroo - June 21, 2024, 01:04:28 AM

Looks like it is an issue on some machines, not all, with the latest version of yad 13.0 (or new yad config).
So if you have such issue, please manually download and install (downgrade) yad to 12.3 from sf, for your Sparky version :
https://sourceforge.net/projects/sparkylinux/files/files/yad123/
and let me know does it help, please.

The issue is the same on default debian kernel and xanmod kernel.
But there is something new too.

There is an output of sparky-aptus-appcenter in terminal.

Artwork & screenshots / again: i3wm on sparky

Last post by orfeu - June 20, 2024, 02:07:59 PM

Hello,
Like manyroads, I'm a fan of i3wm.  Here is shown a printscreen of my desktop. In XFCE desktop environment the window manager is replaced with i3. So there is still the panel of XFCE i.e. lxpanel. And there are Conkies (five of them). Tell me what you think of it.

Goedemiddag Dirk,
Ik heb dus ook een dual boot met Sparky. Sparky ken ik al langer en het werkt goed.
Wat de Belgische politiek betreft, daar moet een Nederlander beter over zwijgen. Maar we zijn toch lid van Europa? 
groeten,

Introduction / hello from the Netherlands

Last post by orfeu - June 20, 2024, 12:52:43 PM

A good day to you all.
Recently I've installed Sparky 7.4 XFCE. I am happy with it and plan to keep using it. For some twenty years I have been using linux in dual or multi boots. The first time (some 20 years ago) Ubuntu and Windows, but I soon discovered that one can do very well without Windows. I have used several distro's: Ubuntu, Debian, Mint, Manjaro and Sparky. At the moment there is a dual boot of Sparky and Mint.
In recent years my setup always included i3 window manager inside XFCE and Conky. It's a really comfortable way to go about the desktop. I recommend it.
kind regards

Thank you AxL.

You're welcome !!

Code Select Expand

sudo apt --reinstall install sparky-aptus-appcenter sparky-welcomeThis is very useful for me.

Glad to help !!

Have you already tried this other option ... ?? that I mentioned in my previous message:

If you use a different theme, than the one you are using (preferably a dark one)
e.g.- Breeze Dark or similar in KDE and Dusk or something equivalent in XFCE

 Does the same thing still happen to you ... ??? 

Cheers !!
