Plop Linux - Xorg, Gnome, Fluxbox, gparted and more

I created a opt.sqfs with Xorg, Gnome, Fluxbox, gparted, a picture viewer, firefox, mplayer and other programs. You simply have to download opt.sqfs and copy it to the ploplinux/opt/ directory. You can start Gnome with startx.

Security: Desktop sharing is active!

Fluxbox instead of Gnome: Use the command "usefluxbox" and then "startx".

opt-tiny.sqfs is a smaller version. To use it, copy the file to the ploplinux/opt/ directory and rename it to opt.sqfs.

Run Gnome at startup: Remove the "#" in front of autostartx in the file ploplinux/bin/rc.local. To use Fluxbox write usefluxbox above the line.

Use ~/.xmyinit and ~/.mygnome to start programs at startup.

Note: You can run Gnome and Fluxbox from the network too.
