Re: System hangs

I think grub will pick it up, too. Just make sure 'os-prober' is enabled in grub in the default folder. When I first installed Salix, mine wasn't enabled but once I enabled it, grub found everything.

Chrome browser flagging salixos.org as unsafe

FYI - Google says the salixos.org site is unsafe. Says something about something expiring 2 days ago that was used to verify. I didn't do a screenshot so I don't recall the exact verbiage but thought the moderators might like to know. The warning is in the USA, or at least for New England. Not sure ...

I keep PCLinuxOS around, too, just because it is so odd I find it entertaining... such a mix of old (apt ...

Re: Pysolfc ~ flatpak version

Thanks. FYI, I'm loving your distro AND I just checked DistroWatch today because I was trying to figure out which version I first tried many years ago (the desktop was MATE) and noticed Salix OS has been removed from the top 100 distros and it must have just happened! They have the status listed as ...

Pysolfc ~ flatpak version

Hoping someone can help me with this. I installed the flatpak version of Pysolfc. When I try to run it, I receive the following error:

Re: Best tips for optimising battery usage on Salix?

I haven't tried powertop and laptop-mode-tools, yet. It's been doing fairly well with tlp and undervolt.

Best tips for optimising battery usage on Salix?

This isn't really a problem, per say. I've searched to forum for 'governor', 'ondemand', and other similar words. I was wondering if someone could post a few tips on how to extend battery time on Salix. A quick guide on the steps would be very much appreciated. I remember tlp from a while back and I ...
