FullPageOS 0.14.0 first release candidate.

Its been a while since the last release, mostly due to having a new baby daughter, and lots of work in my job. Also Debian Bookworm introduced changes that needed to be addressed.

I am working on CustomPiOS v2, the library that builds FullPageOS. you can follow its work here: https://github.com/guysoft/CustomPiOS/issues/214

Something that would help debugging: There were a few reports of blank screens when booting. And it was hard to determine for people if its the HDMI screen not loading or the browser not starting. So I have added a desktop background. If the screen does not start you should see a blank screen, however, if the screen does start, but the browser does not start, you should see the FullPageOS logo, with a cursor.

Features:

Currently testing on an Rpi 2, 3 and 4. So far so good, no errors. But previous version would have blank screen on the 4th day or something. So I let you know. Cheers

fresh install Raspberry pi 3b+, any clue?

guysoft commented 2 weeks ago

@AlfaOmega777 I have no idea how you managed to do that - did you try normal Rpi OS?
