Journey with learning using console - monsieur - 01-27-2024

So I've installed joborun last night.

I've used Hyperbola Gnu/Linux-libre iso from my usb stick, but I read that any iso where arch-chroot scripts are will do.

There's installer script located in /usr/local/bin and also Xinstaller (graphics)
I am having some trouble with running openbox (any wm/de) at the moment, but because I feel like learning using console text mode only programs, I am ok with that at the moment.

There's runit as init system, and basically it comes as pretty minimalistic and elegant OS.

I am using lynx for web browsing right now, irssi/weechat for irc and managed to install some power saving programs like tlp/hdparm/powertop.

Gonna do some more hacking now :-).
I might post some more info about it once I get a bit more comfortable with console and once I have set up some stuff! Smile

Now I gotta memorize how to run services with runit Smile.

Decided to give up using chrome/mozilla web browsers

Viable alternatives are:
netsurf
dillo
lynx Smile

All those web browsers were designed for
