Hi there, would like to try eOS on my device, but I think the documentation is out of time. I did flash Lineage a couple of times before, but already struggling with the pre-install requirements as the referred vbmeta.img is not in any of the downloadable .zip

Download the /e/OS build zip file from the section marked ‘Downloads for a52sxq’. Extract the contents of the /e/OS build zip file. You will find a vbmeta.img in the extracted files.

Also I am wondering if it really needs to be a special Odin version as mentioned in the doc. I am running Linux and found Odin v4 1.2.1 ad wondering if it would work plus how it works as this is a CLI Tool.

Anyone with experience around?

 

Hi there,

i came from Manjaro to KDE to ZorinOS, which is, as far as I know, an Ubuntu with some tweaks?! However it's running gnome Desktop and I'm quite confused about an obviously less used feature by Chromium / Chrome.

In Chrome you can install Websites like Nextcloud as a kind of PWA, which means that I am able to create a shortcut for Nextcloud Contacts e.g. from the context menu of Chromium by using the function "install as an App" or "create shortcut" which basically does the same. After "installation" I was able to find the Web-Shortcut in the App Menu and could run it in a separate window beside browser, with specific Icon, which makes working in different web Apps way easier.

That has never been a problem on KDE Desktop but on Gnome. After some research I found out, that it has to do with Gnome security related settings and the point, that I can't simply put shortcuts on the desktop, what chromium actually does. All the few support articles I could found are more then 10 years old so it might be different today, but I still couldn't find a way to make it work, what is really annoying.

I recorded a short video to explain. Maybe anyone can help me out on that :)

Does anybody have an idea where to find the original? Because reading the tiny letter is a hussle...
