[....]  I'm assuming they were fixed in the last few hours.

They haven't fixed anything, because NOTHING was incorrect, tolai.


The isos are exactly the same as the ones, I checked this morning (at 02:16:24 AM and 02:38:14 AM).
 As you can see in the links in these two images:







 Where all the checksums were absolutely correct.

Settle down big fellow. Sorry if I pissed in your cornflakes. I've downloaded the iso image,checksums, and signature again. Yes, sha256sum and signature match.

I'm assuming they were fixed in the last few hours. https://sourceforge.net/p/sparkylinux/activity/?page=0&limit=100#694eafad8cc2817262c63797

Thanks for the warm welcome.

[....] Downloaded the Xfce amd64 8.1 version. Sha256sum does not match.

By the way, the first images were from 'sourceforge.net' (Mirror 1).

And this one is from 'archive.org' (Mirror 2):





And, absolutely all checksums are also all correct.

Well, it seems that what you say is completely FALSE.

As you can see in the attached images:







Since not only the sha256sum is totally correct. They are also md5sum, sha1sum and of course sha512sum.
So, stop spouting nonsense and deceiving other users with FUD & hoaxes.







Cheers !!

Installation / Sha256sum and bad signature.

Last post by mmah - December 26, 2025, 12:40:43 AM

Hi all. Downloaded the Xfce amd64 8.1 version. Sha256sum does not match. Gpg verification reports "bad signature". Hopefully just a mixup. Needless to say but I won't be installing.

I was around when Mintlinux iso images were hacked some years ago so nice to see developers signing iso images. Many do not.

Create a desktop file in your home directory, for example:
~/.local/share/applications/your-app.desktop
and create content:

Code Select Expand

[Desktop Entry]
Type=Application
Name=app-name
Exec=/path/to/app
StartupNotify=false
Terminal=false
Icon=/path/to/icon
Categories=Application;Network;

I wish to add an item to the Main Menu under Internet. Could someone please tell me how to do that? I have tried to do it like I have done it in other Debian based systems, but nothing I have tried succeeds.

No other problems as far as using the internet goes. I appreciate the homework as I am getting serious about my divorce with my old OS. Thanks a bunch for your help.

You're talking about a hacker honeypot, which are used by real security researchers to monitor how anonymous hackers can... the types of attacks used against protected targets.

This is less useful for a desktop system, since my PC can be attacked by internet packets onto services running, through the web browser, or through poisoned software that i've trusted onto my computer.

I mainly get Scammers though my phone... always trying to tell me that my car warranty needs to be updated.
