A note for users of nvidia cards and blender users..

I am using this SFS for my nvidia 1030 card and fatdog64 802

To install I used control panel to select nvidia proprietary driver

and then typed

@jake29,
Regarding to Deadbeef 1.8.2, I downloaded the 2 spectrum plugins from the original author's website and tested, they worked as expected.

https://sourceforge.net/projects/deadbeef/files/plugins/x86_64/ddb_musical_spectrum-32d08c6-x86_64.zip/download

The files you provided are much smaller in size than what I have downloaded. Probably there were some damages or compatibility problems when you made the compressed package.

I checked ptmtimer on fatdog64 802
By default it uses 2barks.au as warning alarm

ptmtimer-2.6-x86_64-.txz

I converted a recent gimp appimage to a SFS file which might be a
bit more convenient.

gimp-2.10.15_20191212-withplugins-x86_64.sfs

Size: 133mb

Edit: The package doesn't work and I could even get Gimp to load babl library properly.

So I recommend the appimage

Thank you for your gimp sfs. I appreciate your work.
From my limited testing it appears to work well. Not a complaint: Is there a way to configure a light theme?
Note: the menu entry will not go away when the SFS is unloaded.

[don570]

You should be able to remove the desktop file. It is located in
/usr/local/share/applications/ rather than the usual place
/usr/share/applications/ .

OOPS I made a mistake in making the package (explained above)

Themes are apparently available , but I find dark fine.

Something I suggest doing is to change the default window size
and increase the panel windows for tools.
That can be done

Edit > Preferences > Interface > Window management

EDIT: Thi will save the size of the main window but doesn't save the panels, soi must open these up individually each time i launch GIMP.

On fatdog64 810b, I compiled zenity (3.28.0), using the slackbuilds script.

This package is required for the winetricks gui to work. I tested the package but not the sfs:
zenity-3.28.0-x86_64-1_SBo.tgz
zenity-3.28.0-x86_64-1_SBo.sfs

[step]

Thanks for zenity. On my system I linked zenity to yad because yad is supposed to be a full replacement for zenity. However, I don't know if yad stands up to its claim because I seldom encounter scripts that run zenity (yad version < 1.0).
