...explicitly; this has been triggered by the change to
livecd-install as of 0.9.10-alt2 (doesn't R: alterator-grub
anymore to allow non-grub platforms as well).
This should be a no-op _together_ with the mentioned change
by now as grub is selected explicitly; will take more attention
for e.g. e2k as the problem just shifted here from livecd-install.
Reported-by: Leonid Krivoshein <klark@altlinux.org>
This one is alike to install2's one; it's not a shared rootfs
script/variable though as contexts differ a lot, let's be careful.
The commit has been missing from 1.1.64 somehow, found in patch
series while figuring out why LIVE_CLEANUP_KDRIVERS seems to be
just ignored in live-privacy *after* the massive rebase of that
branch...
...and split off use/live/.base *without* use/deflogin/live.
There's need for live images without predefined logins
(like e.g. live-privacy image).
NB: this commit might break things for someone, please notify.
This feature operates LIVE_* variables specifically
(as opposed to the more generic THE_* ones) so +alsa
isn't exactly suitable but reusing the pkglist that's
just been factored out is fine.
live-webkiosk.iso regressed into trying to boot off the local disk
immediately, the exact cause is not yet discovered but this one
has popped in build trace (distcfg.mk) already.
Desktop images are still likely to depend on it though.
Aimed at live images at first but should cover installers as well.
This has been brewing for quite some time and while the proper
implementation is considerably more complex (and hard to do)
looks like there's demand for the particular important use case,
namely LiveCDs for Russian users, so this code has been shared
with a few people before merge.
It looks *ugly* on-screen, at least within regular builds,
even if the screen is 166dpi.
Based on a quick experiment this morning I'd suggest using
fonts-otf-adobe-source-{code,sans}-pro instead -- and it's
available as use/fonts/otf/adobe now, incidentally.
The documentation is still built with it though as a2x/fop look
unhappy otherwise (as in replacing Cyrillic glyphs with "#"s).
fonts-ttf-droid have been superseded by fonts-ttf-google-droid-sans
in Sisyphus which might be lacking; I've considered replacing it
with Fira anyways, so let's just do that.
Firefox was the very reasonable default for initial livecd
implementation but now that at least initial browser chooser
infrastructure is in place it's time to un-hardwire its use.
It's _the_ default but switchable now so that images providing
a comprehensive browser can avoid feature duplication.
dm service is set up to autostart when installed anyways,
and explicit `chkconfig dm on' results in it being turned on
at runlevels 2, 3 and 4 too which is really not needed.
Thanks led@ for spotting and reporting this.
It appears that live feature has been buggy regarding user
groups: its 30-users script would create a predefined account
with fixed supplementry groups list, and even if deflogin feature
got used too it would fail to add any groups to already existing
account since its useradd(8) call would fail.
Let's drop this duplication which has been long overdue anyways.
Thanks dd@ for both reporting the problem and carrying out
initial investigation.
We don't really want to disable NFS portmapper completely
but having some extra root code listening to the world is
really unneccessary unless explicitly required.
Applying "control rpcbind local", thanks ldv@ for advice.
50-setup-network was a hasty hack (surprise!) that used to do
what net and net-eth features have been created to do since;
just drop the duplicated crufty code.
Unconditional resolver setup isn't done now: those with static
setup are better off doing it explicitly, and those with DHCP
should be fine already.
NB: /etc/hosts *is* fine within setup package *but* hasher will
overwrite it with a copy of host's one; let's reset contents
to initial at least until hasher gets fixed and the fix is
rather deployed in the wild.
use/live/textinstall target is a base for those images whose
target audience tends to be somewhat more experienced; these
might prefer to just boot off the image instead of having to
perform any extra action like pressing down arrow and enter.
This is also to help msp@'s homeros-*.iso boot immediately.
use/live/install stopped to provide a desktop icon; the nuance is
that zdg-user-dirs-install.sh script in livecd-install package
expects ~/.config/user-dirs.dirs to actually do that.
This script hook used to lurk in live feature but was deemed needed
in cubox images too; thus it's time to move it into a standalone
feature (maybe a configurable one, even).
Thanks glebfm@ for initial shot and sem@ for discussion.
Hardly belonged there in the first place and became a culprit
during armh branch development since it had to be forked in
an ugly manner; move to rootfs hooks and be done with it.
VM images will be able to benefit either *but* installed systems
might have some trouble when this is implemented:
http://lists.altlinux.org/pipermail/devel/2013-May/197447.html
Split off use/live/x11 as a common free/proprietary ground either
(this refactoring had to be performed in parallel with x11 feature
being revamped, diffs quickly became intertangled unfortunately).
This has had several goals:
- a target suitable for x86 and armh providing a rather
minimal set of base xorg packages and generic drivers;
- task-oriented targets for graphics use cases:
+ "desktop" means rather 2D focus with 3D being welcome
or even essential but not performance critical, thus
"a slower driver is fine as long as it does work";
+ "3d" means specific 3D performance being critical,
that is "no 3D means no use at all".
Regarding the free and proprietary 3D-capable drivers:
the previous idea was to split out some common ground
and then add the contenders on top of that; the current
approach is based on the observation that the live images
requiring proprietary NVIDIA/AMD drivers *by default*
are usually of not much use with hardware that lacks
proper 3D acceleration (like Tseng cards) or the driver
support for that (like Matrox these days).
Intel videodriver makes for a special case though:
it is both free and top-notch performer.
Thanks sem@ and boyarsh@ for discussion.
PS: xorg-drv-{keyboard,mouse,void} dropped;
those who need these can usually help themselves.
This subprofile is akin to THE_* variables family: the configuration
bits and script hooks sitting there influence whatever chroot is
declared to be the user facing one in the end, whether it comes
from vm image or live subprofile.
The services feature ought to be a changeset of its own which would
be based on rootfs and become the base for ve/vm changes but I chose
to just do it atomically; some pre-existing duplicates are pruned now.
The expected behaviour is to have online repositories enabled
when the livecd is running; the trouble with runtime detection
relates to the asynchronous nature of network configuration,
connection might get probed just before it is brought up
(thus failing the test).
Systems having been installed-from-live don't misbehave this way
so left unmolested.
Runtime detection is still available via use/live/repo/online
but is definitely not the default mechanism.
There's a need for a separate boot target since
persistent storage is way slower than tmpfs indeed;
usbflash has a tendency for huge performance drops
given simultaneous writes in addition to reads which
are the bottleneck already.
make-initrd-propagator 0.18 introduced ext4 rw slice,
so the corresponding kernel module needs to be included
into stage1; see also #28289.
NB: not available on x86_64-efi (or hybrid GPT to be strict)
due to fragility of the hack being made: parted(8) panics
upon seeing that, and good ol' fdisk is unable to treat it.
NB: use/live/rw use/rescue/rx use/syslinux/ui/gfxboot
are unlikely to play very nice together due to the latter's
magic l10n: "session" label is taken by live_rw config snippet
and *is* translated in design-bootloader-source;
OTOH "rescue_session" is *not*.
It'd be better for this commit to appear before 0.9.7
(and clobber the original one) but at least the added
functionality has been tested; time to generalize it.
This is thanks to the fact that alterator-based install2 needs
alterator-browser-qt which needs X11 which needs working device drivers
-- and at least AMD C60 APU would only yield a nice dotted white screen
without that firmware.
Roughly the same for X11 bearing LiveCD images.
That sub/stage2/install2 was somewhat clumsy actually as it looked
like a hierarchical thing while being a substitution thing:
generic stage2 would get put in place renamed as install2.
This could only get worse with hierarchical features which have
already been both requested and considered for quite a time,
and "stage2 at install2" reads much more naturally.
This one is contributed by Max Kosmach and somewhat
streamlined/tweaked by me; a part of it rather belongs to
nodm and xinitrc packages but is not exactly trivial to get it
there due to the looming systemd-logind/consolekit disaster;
see also #27449.
Several hacks to make NetworkManager usable in a LiveCD environment
are there too (but it resists so far).
After having added metadata dependency livecd-install
started to look more like a feature than like an intermediate
distribution target; so things were shuffled a bit that way.
Initial SPICE support has been added for kvm/libvirt installation
and boot-up using qxl and spice by default as proposed by shaba@.
VirtualBox part is shifted a level deeper correspondingly
but otherwise stays the same.
Thanks snejok@ for spotting the missing, I didn't get around
to tests with headphones...
Also fixed nouveau getting in after target shuffling,
and tweaked firefox homepage to be useful in this context.
- incompatible change (to fix the rather broken early style):
use/syslinux/ui-% is now use/syslinux/ui/%;
- default timeout changed to 9 seconds (long enough and keeps
the countdown in a single figure);
- added totaltimeout of 300 seconds;
- provided live kiosk images with almost-instant boot by default;
...and some other assorted tweaks here and there, sorry.
Thanks to a reviewer who came with useful feedback and a goal:
http://www.opennet.ru/openforum/vsluhforumID3/83728.html#136
the live-webkiosk image got forked into a separate one:
- dropped DRI, virtualbox GA, mc & co, docs, rpmdb;
- added Russian keyboard layout (ctrl+shift to toggle);
- rebased live-webkiosk onto live-webkiosk-mini ;-)
Maybe vbox guest additions will get back but rpmdb is a bit
impractical on a kiosk squashfs image, even in presence of
aufs rw overlay.
