Can confirm that the ISO does install in Virt-Manager/QEMU.   Just something wonky in my VirtualBox install.  Concerned me when others have installed fine, including the ISO from 202503241412.  Sorry to have caused alarm.

Upgrade Warnings / Ist der Bann nun endgültig vorbei?

« Last post by Hanisch on 2025/07/04, 19:29:19 »

Hallo,

ich kann wieder im Siduction-Forum posten - herrlich!
Hoffentlich bleibt das auch in Zukunft möglich.

Da möchte ich ein ganz großes Dankeschön an das Siduction-Team aussprechen für die Jahrzehnte lange ausgezeichnete Arbeit an dieser hervorragenden Distribution.
Ich habe in den letzten über 15 Jahren bald über 30 Distributionen erprobt und bin jetzt immer noch sehr zufrieden mit meiner Lieblings-Distribution "Siduction" als meinem favorisierten Produktivsystem.
Selbst Manjaro kann mit Siduction nicht mithalten.

Mit besten Grüßen in der Hoffnung auf weitere gute Zusammenarbeit
Ch. Hanisch

I was using virtual box.  So far everything else worked there.   I'll setup qemu/virt-manager after while and I give it a whirl there

I tested it with qemu, latest kde-test-iso https://testbuilds.siduction.org/kde/siduction-2025.1.0-Shine_on-kde-amd64-202507011840.iso.

Installed it in the VM, reboot, login, no problem, did an apt full-upgrade afterward, reboot again. No problem,

So I can't confirm it.

I downlooaded the July testbuild (siduction-2025.1.0-Shine_on-kde-amd64-202507011840.iso   2025-07-01 20:49) tonight and attempted to install it in a VM.   It installed fine, but failed to boot after installation.  I tried with and without EFI enabled.  Got the same error with both installs, You need to load the kernel first.   

The one I have downloaded siduction-2025.1.0-Shine_on-kde-amd64-202503241412.iso installs and boots just fine.

Thanks so much. Commenting out the line in /etc/X11/Xresources/x11-term achieves the aim.

oh, sorry, I took a look to the config, remove the line  xterm*leftScrollBar: true (xterm*rightScrollBar:     true).
I think you don't need to specify the left side scrollbar, so remove it.
Only if you want it on the right side, you have to configure it!

EDIT: So I started a virtual machine with xorg.

We use termit as terminal-emulator, I don't know how to change the placement of the scrollbar.

For xterm, remove that line I mentioned above in /etc/X11/Xresources/x11-term

Well, I don't use xterm but if you start xterm with -sb you should have the scrollbar on the left, according to the -h output.

Code: [Select]

xterm -h
...
    -report-icons                report title/icon updates
    -report-xres                 report X resources for VT100 widget
    -rightbar                    force scrollbar right (default left)
    -/+rv                        turn on/off reverse video
    -/+rvc                       turn off/on display of reverse as color
    -/+rw                        turn on/off reverse wraparound
    -/+s                         turn on/off multiscroll
    -/+samename                  turn on/off the no-flicker option for title and icon name
    -/+sb                        turn on/off scrollbar
    -selbg color                 selection background color

Software - Support / [fixed] how to move the right side scrollbar in xterm to the left side

« Last post by bellbird on 2025/07/03, 13:04:16 »

The issue is that I would like the scrollbar in xterm to be on the left side of the terminal rather than the right side.
The default has it on the right side.

The left side works for me because most of the text is on the left in the terminal.

The siduction installation is "shine-on-xorg".
Current kernel is: 6.15.4-1-siduction-amd64
 
This installation uses a ~/.Xdefaults file, but writing in the following config makes no difference with the scroll bar remaining on the right: xterm*leftScrollBar: true
 
The .Xdefaults file is called by xrdb from an .xsession file, and the GUI is brought up from the startx command.
 
My query is, how can I configure xterm to have a left side scroll bar?

EDIT: I added [fixed] to the header, hendrikL
