AKM A Kernel Manager question

I don’t write anything down. :roll_eyes:

You can cut and paste it, though! I do that even more…

Yeah, that’s how things are on vanilla Arch. But on EndeavourOS you have a hook provided by the grub-tools package, which automatically runs

grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg

whenever you install or remove a kernel.

So, ironically, akm might be more useful on vanilla Arch than on EndeavourOS. :rofl:

I admit I really do like the pacdiff tool thing where it pulls up and we can edit pacdiff files in meld as a super user.

I got triggered by all those pipes.

pacman ... $(cat | grep | grep | sed | awk | sort | uniq | awk... ) | awk | sed | awk | ... # it never ends... 💀

You need a plumber to read that code…

I didn’t do nothing :innocent:

Just asked for a feature.

I am not using AKM myself anymore :sweat_smile:

Well ain’t that a dog pile of a mess!

Thankfully, that crappy website is utterly broken due to me having disabled cross-site scripting and XHR.

Behold the incompetence of modern web developers, they can’t even display an error message:

However, from the URL I see what you’re trying to do and I do not appreciate it. The council has been informed. Reputation -100.

akm just gives you a quick and simple overview on which kernels (versions) are currently available in different repositories (e.g. testing).
As long as those repositories are not part of your setup, you will not be able to find out easily.
So a kernel manager makes a lot of sense. Things are not always about just installing, but also displaying interesting information.
