SPS Linux live 2026-08-31-13

SPS Linux live images for 2026-08-31-13. Use these instead of -12. -12 already had the Mesa SPIRV / gcc cc1 / Fastfetch ASCII fixes. This set rebuilds every image from current extra so Distro branding is on the disc, not only on GitHub: - live `/etc/os-release` points at https://splux.robertflexx.dev - `/usr/share/pixmaps/splux.png` is the SPS PNG - KInfoCenter `kcm-about-distrorc` and plasma-welcome intro match extra - bundled extra includes splux-base release 5 (PNG, about-distro, welcome) Assets: - sps-live-tty.iso — console live image with recipes and a compiler - sps-live-tty-slim.iso — small console image; setup needs the network - sps-live-plasma.iso — Plasma/Wayland live session (Konsole -> setup) Checksums are in SHA256SUMS. 2749d8ae977602b185352245d1802e2c8998e7fda90cc03b20178959003fded0 sps-live-tty.iso 05cdb462454bfec1076f7e3c97d9cf2044740a1f890c9f06b02fb530e9d06f6f

SPS Linux live 2026-08-31-12

SPS Linux live images for 2026-08-31-12. Use these instead of -11. Plasma on -11 respawned startplasma forever: Mesa GBM could not dlopen libSPIRV-Tools.so, so KWin reported no DRM device even when /dev/dri/card0 existed. The same disc was missing Xwayland, /tmp/.X11-unix, Breeze color schemes, and xdg-document-portal. -11 also still let setup die with `C compiler cannot create executables` after crt1.o was added: gcc's driver links, but cc1 needs libmpc and libisl, which were not on the disc. This set also ships the current Fastfetch Splux ASCII and extra recipes where fastfetch depends on splux-base, so the default config applies when Fastfetch is installed from extra or sget. Assets: - sps-live-tty.iso — console live image with recipes and a compiler - sps-live-tty-slim.iso — small console image; setup needs the network - sps-live-plasma.iso — Plasma/Wayland live session (Konsole -> s

SPS Linux live 2026-08-31-11

SPS Linux live images for 2026-08-31-11. Use these instead of -10. setup on -10 fetched alsa-lib, then died with `C compiler cannot create executables`. The disc had gcc and ld but not glibc's crt1.o or the libc.so linker script. Also in this line (from -9/-10): kwin_wayland_wrapper, live DNS, udev before dhcpcd. Assets: - sps-live-tty.iso — console live image with recipes and a compiler - sps-live-tty-slim.iso — small console image; setup needs the network - sps-live-plasma.iso — Plasma/Wayland live session (Konsole -> setup) Checksums are in SHA256SUMS. b2bc1f26b57ec317b62e9de7aae712f9519f09f648b9a0a9a3bc61ab6d6fea4a sps-live-tty.iso 7c2eee8b67559cad18c7cedbfcc4b67a46b5dd4d271df551c0df46dd5662e70e sps-live-tty-slim.iso a4d6265fe0a83d82b100d1c163966ac63bc61292856505147e6c6a0e87e34be1 sps-live-plasma.iso Flash the tty image for a source install. Slim has no gcc.

SPS Linux live 2026-08-31-10

SPS Linux live images for 2026-08-31-10. Use these instead of -9. Plasma on -8/-9 could start GPU init then die without kwin_wayland_wrapper. All live images had internet by IP but no DNS: no nsswitch.conf, no resolv.conf, and dhcpcd ran before udev. What changed: - kwin_wayland_wrapper, libxcb-cursor, and xdg-permission-store on Plasma - /etc/resolv.conf with 1.1.1.1 and 8.8.8.8 (DHCP may overwrite) - /etc/nsswitch.conf hosts: files dns - udev before dhcpcd; dhcpcd on slim discs; busybox udhcpc fallback Assets: - sps-live-tty.iso — console live image with recipes and a compiler - sps-live-tty-slim.iso — small console image; setup needs the network - sps-live-plasma.iso — Plasma/Wayland live session (Konsole -> setup) Checksums are in SHA256SUMS. 9961d81f5cb6db9f2a26dc7f4c52546233483da501fdc6142834af7bca501456 sps-live-tty.iso 92f642ab3c76ed22a1348c7700281d2d3006ef8242bc05d72a2a
