TROMjaro XFCE Alpha
nguTio
Ezi ntsuku zidlulileyo sidlale kakhulu ngendawo entsha yedesktop ye-TROMjaro distro yethu. Ngoba? Ngenxa yokuba sithembele kwi-Gnome ye-TROMjaro yangoku kwaye yintlungu kwi-esile kwiimbono ezininzi. Kolunye, ukwenza iGnome ngokwezifiso kuvakala ngathi kukuqweqwedisa iGnome, kwaye oku kunciphisa idesktop kwaye iyaphule ngamanye amaxesha kakubi kangangokuba awunakuphinda uqalise kwinkqubo yakho. I-Gnome, ngokungagqibekanga, yindawo engaqhelekanga kakhulu yedesktop. Ijongeka ngolu hlobo:
Ziphi ii-apps? iifestile? yintoni imisebenzi? …. Kuya kufuneka uyazi indlela yokusebenzisa ikhibhodi yakho ukwenza nantoni na ngeGnome. Ungavula iifestile ezingama-50 kwaye emva koko ubuyele kwi-desktop kwaye ungazi ukuba iphi na… Kakhulu kakhulu wonke umntu osebenzisa i-Gnome kwi-distros yabo bazokongeza izinto ezinengqondo kuyo, njengemenyu eneapps, ezinje ngetreyi. icons phezulu ngasekunene…. Kwaye ngoko siyenzile:
Ngenxa yoko kuye kwafuneka ndifake izandiso ezimbalwa zeGnome. Kwaye iqela leGnome likhulu kakhulu ekutyhaleni uhlaziyo oluya kwaphula uninzi lwezongezo ezinjalo. Mva nje baye ibhengezwe ukuba iinguqulelo zeGnome zexesha elizayo ziya kwenza ukuba kube nzima kakhulu kwabanye ukwenza ngokwezifiso inkangeleko yayo. Kwaye kwakusele kunzima ukuyenza.
Ke iGnome inzima ukwenza ngokwezifiso kwaye ngenxa yokuba kuya kufuneka wongeze inqwaba yezandiso emva koko uya kuyenza icothise kwaye ityekele kwiibugs, ezinye zimbi ngokwenene.
Ukukunika imizekelo emibini:
- Ngesinye isikhathi bahlaziya i-Gnome kuguqulelo olutsha kunye nolwandiso olunye esasilusebenzisa ukubonelela ngee-icon zetreyi (ezibaluleke kakhulu), zaphula i-desktop yonke kabuhlungu kangangokuba kuye kwafuneka ndifundise abanye abasebenzisi ukuba "baqhekeze" kwinkqubo yabo kwaye. susa eso sandiso.
- If I do a single simple change, like adding a new default app on the left taskbar for TROMjaro, for the ISO that we release, I have to export the dconf (Gnome settings) into a plain text file, then search through that file for that line where I have added the app to the menu (that would be the setting for the Dash to Panel extension we use for the left sidebar), then add it to a package we created to overwrite the changes in Gnome, build the package locally, add it to our repo, update the repository database, and sync it to my system. Now build the new ISO. NUTS!
Ungandiphazamisi, ndiyithanda kakhulu iGnome ngokubanzi ngokwemigaqo yoyilo ukuba wongeza izandiso ezimbalwa ukuze isebenze. Ijongeka yangoku kakhulu kwaye kulula ukuyisebenzisa. Ngokwandiswa okumbalwa senze ukuba i-TROMjaro yethu ibonakale ilungile ndingatsho. Sayivavanya kakhulu. Kodwa mhlawumbi lixesha lokufudukela kwinto entsha kwaye ngokukhawuleza kwaye ethembekileyo.
Nantsi iXFCE iza. Jonga indlela ebonakala ingathandeki ngayo:
Uyilo luyi-subjective, ndabhala iincwadi malunga nalo, kodwa ukujonga okungagqibekanga kwe-XFCE kubonakala kakhulu ngo-1995. Ngenxa yeso sizathu mna, ngokunyanisekileyo, ndingayihoyi ixesha elithile. Ngombulelo abambalwa be-TROM-abahlobo banyanzelisa ukuba ndizame. Ndandicinga ekuqaleni ukwenza inguqulo ye-TROMjaro kwiikhomputha ezindala kakhulu, usebenzisa i-XFCE. Kodwa ke….ndiye ndakwazi ukuyenza ngolu hlobo:
Iipaneli zininzi, zinokwenzeka, kwaye zivela:
Oku kujongeka kufana kakhulu nenguqulelo yethu yeGnome. Kwaye kwakulula kakhulu ukuyenza. Kwaye, kuye kwafuneka ndifake iiplagi ezimbalwa ze-XFCE eziziva zivela kwi-desktop. Andiyi kuqwalasela ezo "njengezongezelelweyo". Khumbula ukuba kwakunzima kangakanani kum ukufaka utshintsho lweGnome? Kwi-XFCE ndenza olu tshintsho kuMatshini weVirtual emva koko ngokusisiseko ndikhuphele incwadi eneenkcukacha ngazo zonke ezi nguqulelo kulawulo lwam lolwakhiwo, emva koko ndakhe i-ISO. Kuko konke. Amaxesha angama-50 alula. Kwaye ezi paneli uzibonayo ziyinxalenye ye-XFCE kwaye ungazihambisa naphi na apho ufuna khona, kunye nokongeza ezininzi kangangoko ufuna. Ngokusisiseko utshintsho endilwenzileyo lutshintsho lwendalo kwi-desktop ye-XFCE.
Unokongeza izinto kwiqela lenjongo kwaye uzihlele njengoko ufuna. Kwaye ngamnye kubo unomlinganiselo ophilileyo wezicwangciso. Akukho nto iphambeneyo, kodwa yanele ukukuvumela ukuba uzenze ngokwezifiso.
Imenyu yeapps ilula kwaye iyakhawuleza:
Idesktop ngokwayo ivakala ngokukhawuleza kwaye ayiziva ngathi ndiyiqhekezile ukuyenza ngendlela eyiyo. Kwaye nantsi ezinye iimpawu ezipholileyo, ngokufutshane.
Imenyu yeapps ikhawuleza kakhulu. I-Gnome enye yayijongeka ngoku ngakumbi, kwaye ngokuqinisekileyo sinokwenza okufanayo kunye nezinye iipakethi ezifakiwe, kodwa "emiselweyo" enye intle kakhulu kwaye ungayenza ngokwezifiso kancinci. Awukwazi ukutsala kwaye ulahle usetyenziso kwiifolda, kodwa ungazongeza ngokulula kwizinto ozithandayo okanye uhlele imenyu kwaye uzihlele ngeso sixhobo. Akulula njengeGnome, yinyani. Kodwa ukukhawuleza kakhulu kwenza ukuba kusebenze ngakumbi.
Workspaces are more functional but not as "cool":
Iindawo zokusebenza azigudi njengeGnome, kodwa zibonakala zisebenza ngakumbi kwaye zikhawuleza ukuzisebenzisa. Ndingayiphucula le nto kodwa ukuza kuthi ga ngoku kuhle. Ungatshintsha izithuba zokusebenza usebenzisa phezulu: 1,2 amaqhosha, ngokuskrola kwidesktop, okanye uhambise imouse ekunene kwekhusi ukubona zonke iindawo zokusebenza kwaye uhambise iifestile phakathi kwazo. Ndingathanda ukuba olu khetho lokugqibela lunokuxhasa umboniso wefestile, kwaye ukuba bekukho uhlobo lopopayi xa utshintshela phakathi kweendawo zokusebenza ukuze kucace xa uswitsha. Kwaye kunjalo, unokongeza iindawo ezininzi zokusebenza njengoko ufuna.
Iisetingi zininzi, kodwa azibandi kakhulu:
Kwi-Gnome iisetingi bezixinene ngakumbi kwaye kulula ukuhamba. Kodwa iXFCE yenza umsebenzi olungileyo nayo. Kwakhona, ungakhohlisi ukuba kwi-Gnome kufuneka ufake ii-apps ezi-2 ngaphezulu (Izandiso kunye neeTweaks) ukuze utshintshe umxholo, ii-icon, ulawule izandiso, kunye neminye imisebenzi esisiseko. I-XFCE yenza konke oko ngokungagqibekanga ngoMphathi wabo woSeto, nangona ikhangeleka indala kakhulu. Kodwa, kwakhona, isebenza kakhulu!
Iimenyu zehlabathi! Ekugqibeleni!
Ndiyazithanda iimenyu zehlabathi kwaye yenza ukuba idesktop ibonakale "imanyene". Imenyu yee-Apps akufanele ihlale endleleni yakho, xa ubukele ividiyo, uhlela ifoto, ubhala uxwebhu, njalo njalo. Ke ukubafaka kwibar yemenyu ephezulu kukuhle kakhulu. Njengebhonasi kwi-XFCE ungayifihla ibha ephezulu yee-apps ezongeziweyo ukuze igcine izithuba ezithile phezulu. Ukubuyisela u-pres SHIFT (okanye Lawula ngokuxhomekeke kuguqulelo lwe-ISO oluzamayo) kwaye tsala ifestile ngasemva. Kwakhona, unganciphisa ezinye izicelo kwibar yazo ephezulu ngokusebenzisa ivili lokuskrola imouse ngelixa uhambisa phezulu kwibar. Into encinci.
I-HUD. Ndisemathandweni!
There is one extraordinarily useful tool in Linux that pretty much no one appreciates: HUD. Or the ability to quickly search through menus and select an option. This is so useful I can’t describe it. Imagine you edit an image and you want to quickly edit the “levels”. How you do it? Click through menus to find it and apply. But with HUD you press ALT on the keyboard and type the first few letters and select it. It is a massive difference. Here:
Unokucinga ukuba ndisisidenge kwaye andazi ukuba luphi ukhetho "lwemigangatho", okanye ndenze ngathi andazi. Ngenene bendicinga ukuba ikwiZihluzo. Kwaye bendisebenzisa i-GIMP iminyaka ngoku kodwa ndihlala ndilibala ukuba ziphi na iinketho ezininzi. Nge-HUD ndiyifumene ngomzuzwana okanye ngaphantsi. Awunakundixelela ukuba i-HUD ayiloncedo ngokumangalisayo!
Ndiza kuzama ukwenza umxholo wokudityaniswa nedesktop kodwa okwangoku zombini iimenyu zehlabathi kunye ne-HUD zilula kakhulu ukuseta nokufaka kwaye uzive kwendalo kakhulu, hayi i-hack.
Ndizamile ukubuyisela iimenyu zehlabathi kunye ne-HUD kwi-Gnome iminyaka….kwaye ndizamile iipakethe ezininzi kunye neengcebiso kunye namaqhinga. Bambalwa kuphela abasebenzayo kwaye basebenze kakubi kakhulu. Zoyikeka kakhulu…akunakuzisebenzisa. Kwaye ndazama kakhulu.
Kukho ezinye iingenelo kunye nezinye izinto ezingeloncedo kwi-XFCE ngaphezulu kweGnome. Umzekelo kukho ii-apps ezimbalwa ze-Gnome ezinokufakwa kuphela ukuba ufaka i-desktop ye-Gnome okanye iipakethe ezininzi ze-Gnome, kwaye mhlawumbi ziya kwaphula i-XFCE. Ezi zizinto eziphambili ze-Gnome ezifana nekhalenda, abafowunelwa, kunye nokunye. Ngoko ke kuya kufuneka sifunele ezinye ezitshintshileyo.
Phofu ke, yile nto ndingakuxelela yona ngoku. Kuya kufuneka siyivavanye iiveki / iinyanga ngaphambi kokuba siyenze iTROMjaro engagqibekanga. Kwaye sifuna igalelo lakho. Uyakwazi ukukhuphela i-ISO ukusuka Apha. Sebenzisa itshaneli yethu yenkxaso ye-TROMjaro yeMatrix “#itrojaro:matrix.trom.tf” kwaye usinike ingxelo. Siyifuna ngokwenene!
Isicwangciso sethu siya kuba kukukhulula ekugqibeleni i-2 TROMjaro XFCE: enye ephindaphinda ukuseta kwe-TROMjaro yangoku, kwaye enye ejongeka / eziva ifana kodwa iya kuba ncinci kakhulu, ukuba zikhona, ii -apps ezifakiweyo.
Kuya kwenzeka ntoni kwi-TROMjaro Gnome? Musa ukuphaphazela. Iza kuqhubeka isebenza kwaye siya kuhlala sibonelela ngenkxaso kuloo nto. Sinokude sikhuphe ii-ISO ezintsha ngeGnome. Okwangoku i-TROMjaro Gnome iseyeyona TROMjaro iphambili. I-XFCE idinga uvavanyo oluninzi: ngaba ii-keyboards ziyasebenza? iipads zokuchukumisa, izikrini zokuchukumisa, iziboniso ezininzi, ngaba izinzile? Kwaye nangokunjalo.
Bendijonge kwezinye iimeko zedesktop ezinje nge-Deepin, Plasma, Budgie, Mate, kunye nokunye. Ndiyifumana i-XFCE ilula ngokwaneleyo kangangokuba izinzile ukusuka kuhlaziyo olunye ukuya kwenye; inokhetho olwaneleyo lokwenza idesktop yakho ngeendlela ezininzi ezahlukeneyo ukusuka ekuhambeni, ngaphandle kwesidingo sokufakela ngaphezu kwe-3-4 iiplagi ze-XFCE; kwaye isebenzisana nedesktop, akukho “software centre” kunye nokunye. Nayiphi na i-app esebenze kwi-TROMjaro Gnome iya kusebenza kwi-TROMjaro XFCE. Indlela ofaka ngayo, ukususa, okanye ukugcina inkqubo yakho ihlaziyiwe iya kuba phantse i-100% efanayo.
Kulungile, unokufikelela kwi-TROMjaro XFCE usebenzisa iqhosha elingezantsi (singakhulula ii-ISO ezintsha ke jonga oku kumaxesha ngamaxesha).
UHLAZIYO: Ukuya kwi-Aplha 2 !!!!!!
Sine Alpha 2 ukhupho! Kwaye senze ngcono kakhulu. Ndiza kuzama ukudwelisa uphuculo / utshintsho apha.
Iwallpaper eyahlukileyo kuyo yonke indawo yokusebenza!
Ngenxa yokuba i-XFCE iswele nawuphi na upopayi xa utshintshela kwindawo yokusebenza eyahlukileyo, u-Alexio wayenombono okrelekrele wokongeza iphepha lodonga elahlukileyo kwindawo nganye yokusebenza, ukuze ukwazi ukubahlula ngokulula. Kodwa indlela esiyenze ngayo ipholile, kuba sisebenzisa iphepha elisicaba elifanayo kwiindawo zokusebenza ezi-3, ezinezowuni zamaxesha ezahlukeneyo (kusasa, emva kwemini, kunye nobusuku). Uchuku nje kancinci. Kwaye siyibekele iindawo zokusebenza ezisi-7-9, ezinomahluko wembonakalo. Nantsi indlela ekhangeleka ngayo:
Ibha ephezulu, ngcono ngoku!
Amaqhosha asekunene (ii-icon zetreyi) alungelelaniswe ngcono ngoku. Izaziso ziyazingisa ukuze zinganyamalali ngaphandle kokuba uzikhuphele kwimenyu yezaziso + songeze i icon yomsebenzisi ekuvumela ukuba uvale, umise, uqalise kwakhona, njalo njalo. Kwaye songeze iqhosha lokuqaqamba ukwenza ukukhanya kwesikrini sakho, kunye neqhosha lokutshintsha ulwimi lwekhibhodi yakho. Ukuyigcina iluncedo! Kwicala lasekhohlo sikwazile ukuyidibanisa ngokufanelekileyo kunye neemenyu zehlabathi kwaye ngoku nanini na xa usenza nkulu ifestile awusenayo ibar ephezulu yefestile, ikuvumela ukuba usebenzise ngokupheleleyo isikrini sakho. Amaqhosha efestile kunye nemenyu yehlabathi ngoku zonke zikwibar ephezulu, njengoko kufanele ukuba njalo!
Gcina iiseshini zakho!
Enye into epholileyo malunga ne-XFCE kukuba ungagcina iiseshini zakho. Yithi usebenza kwizinto ezininzi, kwaye zininzi izicelo ezivuliweyo. Ngoku ufuna ukuqalisa kwakhona ngezizathu ezithile okanye utshintshe abasebenzisi, kodwa xa ubuya ungathanda ukuba zonke izicelo zakho zivulwe ngendlela efanayo phambi kokuba uqale/utshintshe umsebenzisi. Kulungile ngoku unako, kwaye oku kupholile ngokumangalisayo. Nangona ingagqibelelanga nge-100%, iluncedo ngendlela emangalisayo.
Sihlele iimenyu kunye nee -apps ukuzenza zibe luncedo kakhulu.
For one, we’ve added to the main Settings Manager more settings, so now you have all them into 1 single place. This is something I could have never dreamed of doing in Gnome. I managed to add things like Opene RGB, Easystroke, Touche and the like, 3rd party applications that allow you to control your RGB lights on your devices, add gestures to your mouse or touchpad. In other words, I was able to improve the array of settings users have access to.
On top of this I was able to reorganize all of the other apps and rename them, so that they are easier to find. Instead of NewsFlash you have RSS Reader, instead of Cheese you have Webcam, and so forth. It is a LOT saner this way. Actually the awesome XFCE and the menu we use, lets you use the generic names, wherever they are setup, globally. With a click of a button. But I didn’t want to set this up for all of them since, at times, can be confusing if you are searching for a specific app, say Element Messenger, and all you can find is Messenger. Now is easier to find what you are looking for! Plus, we default the Super key to the app-finder instead of the bottom left menu. Both are quite the same, but the app-finder opens up in the center of the screen and is much faster to quickly search and find an app this way. On top of this I was able to edit these apps individually and add keywords to them, so that it is easier to find them.
This is how you can edit the applications in TROMjaro XFCE. Not as intuitive and easy as sorting them in Gnome, but you are able to not only sort them, you are able to rename them, change their icons, add keywords and so much more.
There are a few other changes/improvements under the hood. But the most notable one is the way we setup the default system backups. Before, in TROMjaro Gnome, anytime you would update an app, even a single one, the system will create a FULL system backup that could have taken 10 to 30 minutes to finish at time. Right now the system will only do a backup if core system packages are updated, not a single app. More to this, we test BTRF as a system partition tool and that seems to be thousands of times faster when it comes to backups. Like it takes a few seconds to create a backup. And you can even access these backups from the GRUB. Meaning that if you cannot boot into your system anymore, reboot and press SHIFT and you then see a menu and restore your system from there. We have to adapt our GRUB theme for this as right now you can’t see that option. Plus we have to test these new backups a lot more.
Kumatshini obonakalayo inkqubo iva i-TON ngokukhawuleza kuneGnome. Intle, iyakhawuleza, iluncedo, kwaye inezinto ezimbalwa ezizodwa endinokuthi. Into elandelayo kukuyivavanya koomatshini bomzimba, kwaye iya kuba kukukhutshwa kwethu kweBeta emva kokuba siyivavanye ngolo hlobo. Okwangoku, zive ukhululekile ukubamba le Aplha 2 ukhupho ukusuka ezantsi bellow.
UHLAZIYO: Alpha 3, ukulungisa ezinye izinto
I got the change to test it on a laptop for the first time, and it did not go well. Tried for like 2 hours. Then I realized I missed some stuff from the build. So I fixed it eventually. Meaning that the previous ISOs were not able to install the system, only to test it in a live environment. Sorry about that, but is the process of testing. So we fixed that and a few other things. There are some bugs like the wallpapers do not respect the workspaces we setup, it only showcases the first wallpaper. Plus we have to improve the way we deal with workspaces because currently the right side preview may become annoying.
Ndiphinde ndavavanya i-BTRF kunye ne-timeshift snapshots kwaye inxalenye enkulu kukuba basebenza ngokukhawuleza. Ukuvutha ngokukhawuleza. Ukwenza i-backup kunye nokubuyisela. Nangona kunjalo andikwazanga ukubuyisela ifomu ye-GRUB nangona unokubona ukhetho kwi-GRUB yethu yesiko. Andazi ukuba kutheni kodwa andikwazanga ukubuyisela ukusuka apho.
Ngoku kuya kufuneka ndilinde kwaye ndibone ukuba isebenza njani kule laptop + ndiza kuzama ukuyifaka kwithebhulethi yam ukuyivavanya kwiscreen sokuchukumisa. Kodwa kuqala ndingathanda ukongeza ngakumbi ukubamba kunye neentshukumo zempuku njengento ehlala ihleli. Ukuza kuthi ga ngoku, iXFCE iyangxola!
UHLAZIYO: I-Beta iphumile!
Funda inqaku Apha, kwaye uyibambe, udlale ngayo, usinike impendulo!
Molo...ndiyithanda kakhulu iTromjaro! Qhubeka usebenza kakuhle! Umbuzo omnye: Yonke i-Alpha Iso, ndifuna ukuphinda ndifake inkqubo?
Kuba oku kukukhutshwa kwe-Alpha kuvavanyo kuphela ukuze uvavanye ukhupho olutsha ewe, kufuneka ufake i-Alpha entsha. Kungekudala siza kukhupha i-Beta kwaye i-beta inokuhlaziywa kuba ekugqibeleni iya kusetyenziswa njengeyona iphambili.
