Hi Sagar, thanks for giving Sculpt OS 22.04 a try! Feedback is always much appreciated.
> 1. Mouse using my trackpad was very difficult to manage, it wasn't stable. In the current version, we rely on the BIOS emulation of a PS/2 mouse. This works reasonably well with Thinkpads but - depending on the BIOS - can be flaky, especially on recent machines by other vendors. We will probably need to add a proper touchpad driver down the road. > 2. There's no shutdown button, poweroff button and no instructions> in > documentation on how to do so. I had to use hardware based shutdown> which definitely harms my hardware. There are two aspects to it. First, to maintain file-system consistency, our current file-system component issues a sync every 10 seconds. So it is safe to turn off the machine a few seconds after the last write operation. Second, to trigger the powering-off in software, you will need the ACPICA component, which you can find in alex-ab's depot. E.g., you may give the battery applet a try. When deploying this component, you can assign the 'system status' ROM to it, which corresponds to the file /config/system. In the presence of ACPICA, you can change this file to <system state="poweroff"/> ...which prompts ACPICA to turn off the machine. Cheers Norman -- Dr.-Ing.
