first device was dual boot so after reading i get it, does not work. When i boot to the ubuntu drive i just get a text login which i can log into but nothing else.
other device was just normal ubutnu (both at current versions) and that also just takes me to a text login, which i can log into but nothing else.
I am not sure if i am missing a step.
EDIT: Since the ubutnu login still works is there a way to get ubuntu os working again? i learned i can use startx to start the gui. Now to just figure out how to ger snakeoilos to work.
I have been able to get Moode to work on a rpi and then was looking to try snakeoil but it seems i am missing something.
Refer to the reference section in this website, particularly this chapter ( https://www.snakeoil-os.net/reference/in...il_package). I will update that chapter to make it more obvious to use the computer.
Technically I can also create a text frontend for folks to configure. If folks want something like this please submit a feature request in the forums.. Problem with this is one extra process running (on top of the API), and also the requirements for running a console application can negatively affect the RT nature of the OS if you're using a RT kernel.
