How to Manually Add a Program to the Menu
I'll bet this would work.
google-chrome.desktop file
home/guest/google-chrome.sh script
google-chrome.desktop file
Code: Select all
Exec=sh /home/guest/google-chrome.sh
Code: Select all
#!/bin/sh
Exec=$BOOTDEV/browser/google-chrome_/chrome/google-chrome %U

SETTINGS ERASE
Hello Elicia. Welcome to Porteus. What s the format of the partition Porteus is installed on? How are you booting Porteus; EFI, BIOS, grub2? Do you have a /changes folder and if so what's in it? Is your pc a 64bit system or a 32bit system? Why a test version of Porteus rather than the 4.0 version?

RING doorbell app for Porteus
Anyone have or know of a file for accessing the RING doorbell's data? There is a RING app for the MAC and for Windows 10 but none that I have come across for Linux and installing Wine to run the Windows one is too much effort.

[Suggestion] man-pages modules for all base modules

A good suggestion Rava. Normally when I need help with a question or problem about a command I use Google. For offline scenarios your suggestion is perfect. Might even be a quicker solution to problems without using Google.

Rava what is the URL you used for your Linux Manpages Online manual?
Do these modules work for you? https://mirrors.edge.kernel.org/pub/lin ... man-pages/
