I used the meta package
packages.debian.org/bookworm/xfce4
task-xfce-desktop is used by tasksel during a normal debian installation (which is not available for the pi). I think it adds some bloatware we don't need.....Does it install open office? Thats bloatware to me.
Anyways right clicking on the applet identifies it as “NetworkManager Applet” version 1.30.0
I usually boot the image after I’ve created it and do a little bit of “polishing”. Yeah it adds some time as I have to write to the SD card boot and “polish” then read the SD card image and shrink it and zip it up. In all fairness I’m really not making it for a “wider audience”.
Looks like I’ll have my RPi 5 some time tomorrow, unfortunately only a 4GB model as all the 8’s were gone and there was no info about when they’d have stock.
Just hope there’s no issue with the SPI with the linuxcnc driver due to the “southbridge” as they have referrred to the IO chip.
Just some regular CNCer, already proficient with my rpi4 8gb and 2.8. I thought I might try something else, test some stuff. Been reading around here for some days now. I tried to run that image (the one from Rod's first post):
