  3. I realise that I could simply write to the developers of Supermium, but I wanted to ask those who are familiar with accessibility for help first. For a bit of background, I am switching from Windows 11 to 7. I will not debate this. The decision has been made and my primary machines are being upgraded with new drives and installations as I speak. I have an 11 machine if I absolutely need it, but it will not be used daily. Anyway, I primarily use Firefox, but sometimes, Supermium is better for certain things. This is a fork of Chrome that works with everything from XP through 11 and is updated often. The problem is that, unlike with Firefox, it doesn't save my passwords between portable versions. This is true of Chrome itself as well, even when logged into my account, and I have no idea why. Anyway, to avoid this, I would like to install it as a regular program on my machine. But the installer doesn't work with NVDA on 7. I haven't tried it on 10 or 11. It starts and then gets stuck and won't continue reading the options. I am fairly certain this is an open source program. Would it be possible for a standard installer to be written or for theirs to somehow be fixed? In contrast, the portable version uses their installer and works beautifully.

  5. RE: masto.ai/@phoronix/11691294514

    Michael Larabel cherry-picks a recent update from Alfonso Siciliano @alfonsosiciliano for the FreeBSD Foundation:

    "During the month of June, I was primarily focused on BSDCan.

    During my talk at the conference, I presented a solution for automatically detecting the appropriate NVIDIA GPU driver, allowing the installer to automatically detect the hardware, install the correct driver, and configure the system.

    However, the licensing issue has not yet been clarified, so this solution will not be integrated into bsdinstall in the short term. Instead, users with NVIDIA GPUs will be prompted through a menu to select which version of the NVIDIA device driver they want to install."

    <reddit.com/r/freebsd/comments/> draws attention to slides 129-133 of Alfonso's recent presentation.

  11. At least the standard is now available via .

    There seem to be problems with the portable one, which we do not really understand, because the contents of both installers are identical, only the installation process is different with the standard one requiring elevation.

  12. At least the standard #NumeRe #installer is now available via #winget.

  17. Protože mi má přijít novej #notebook, tak jsem si řekl, jestli neni dobrej čas na #distrohop .. #VirtualBox mi tak právě chroupe #openSUSE Tumbleweed Slowroll...

    Už jen #installer má netušený možnosti!

  18. It looks like there is some confusion about the current version of the Nix installer.

    According to their website it is 2.34.2, the latest release at GitHub is 2.34.1, but the install command points to 2.34.4.

    Of course this is not going to work due to a SHA-256 hash mismatch.

    Changing the URL to releases.nixos.org/nix/nix-2.3 works, but this must be only one of the reasons why Determinate Systems decided to provide their own Nix installer.
