Adelie came up fine today.
I wonder if I will ever figure out how to use it.
It tells me I have a wire connection to the internet, but no hint on how to get a browser. I will copy this from Kate on Adelie to my Mutual thumb drive and send it later from my Windows laptop .

I'm afraid you did not read this thread from the very beginning... I tried to warn in my early reports that Adelie is, in contrats to e.g. Fienix, is still very BETA and far from suitable for normal use:
viewtopic.php?p=58026#p58026
AFAIK, Netsurf 3.10 is currently the only browser for it, and it can be installed with APK (please see Xeno's instructions in this thread).
But for everyday use, it's best to stay with Fienix or MintPPC. Adelie is only a 'curiosity' in it's present state...

It's a lot of fun to click around in and find things to wonder about, though. I'll have another go at APK and see if I can get Netsurf. Thanks for the tip.

Whee! Netsurf was already here and ready to use!

I tested Adélie Linux on my X5000/40 today.
SSH is activated in the latest noboot disk image.
You can check it with:
If you can't log in via SSH then please modify the password from the live user.
I was able to start Arctic Fox via a Void chroot on Adélie Linux today.
Code: Select all
xhost +
su -
# export DISPLAY=:0
# cd /run/media/live/void
# mount -t proc none ./proc
# mount -o bind /dev ./dev
# mount -t sysfs sys ./sys
# xhost +
# chroot .
# cd /home/amigaone/arcticfox
# ./arcticfox

OpenGL works in a chroot as well. Unfortunately audio doesn't work. Maybe I need an additional command.

Maybe this helps:
Code: Select all
# cd /run/media/live/void
# mkdir -p ./$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/pulse
# mount -o bind $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/pulse ./$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/pulse
echo $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR
Output: /run/user/0

Adelie has quit working on my machine! I log in on that pretty login screen and eventually another screen comes up all dark except for a moveable cursor and a Search requester in the center top. I have been able to look at all the files I have in Adelie (also those in my fienixes and in void and in mate) but no way to run an operation in Adelie. Soon I end up with a black screen and white cursor that I can't do anything with. No more Search requester. Very depressing.
I guess maybe I'll try reinstalling Adelie.
