Thanks to the Bliss OS team for your hard work, can you please make a Bliss OS for PC able to run live from USB with persistent data? so we can carry it with us?

Try to avoid that and always install on hdd or SSD
1. Usb drives are much slower than hdd or ssd, the os get stuck affecting the user experience.
2. A lot of people got their usb drives bricked, I bricked a 32gb, my friend bricked two 32gb hp usb drives and one SanDisk 4gb, another person told me he had a couple of usb drives that became perpetually corrupt.
Even external hard drive better than usb drive.

I think I read somewhere that libhoudini was no longer used in google's emulator images and that there's a new implementation, is it still used here?

• Sleep states aren’t working right on a few machines. Some can cause SystemUI to restart.

I have this on my pc same as with AG10-carbon rom. Sometimes the screen turns black (or if screen timeout is reached), the only way to recover is to put it to sleep. On waking it back up, the boot animation starts and it goes back to sleep. The only workaround is to press power button multiple times until the boot animation completes (obviously some script is interupted). In the video i set timeout to 30sec to trigger it. Any way of turning it off completely?
Also another problem i have is: key/cursor presses are not recognised in some games with buttons (like start game, options, etc) doesn't seem like a keymapping problem...
Edit: sorry for the huge file size, took a while to upload on the app

Hello! Can you please help me? I'm trying to install it on VirtualBox, but when I try to format the partition to ext4, I get an error which reads, "Installation Failed! Please check if you have enough free disk space to install AG-11." Followed all the instructions in https://wiki.blissroms.org/index.php?title=Bliss_OS/Installation/VirtualBox.
Also, the OS randomly reboots and gets stuck in the boot animation while using it through live USB.

I could boot pendrive and start the OS but I can not use the mouse or keyboard ... Is it normal ?

This happened to me when navigating the UI. Prior to that, it was working well.

Then how to use the OS without mouse or keyboard ? thanks for answering

Try to make sure you setup your virtual storage as ide and not SCSI. That's the most common cause of your symptoms

 

[ImMohdAbubakar]

Hello! Thanks for replying. The virtual storage is set to IDE and not SCSI.

 

[ImMohdAbubakar]

This is the configuration

Hi all. Been following this os lately as I have some old Toshiba wt7-c tablets that run windows 8.1 natively. Has anyone had experience here removing windows completely and running this x86 android os on these tablets by any chance.

It's got 1gb ram and an atom CPU.


Cheers

I'm getting the same error here! Tried 20GB and still no luck with Bliss 11
Bliss 10 installation was successful on this vm
Am I doing something wrong?
Thanks

I've also been having this same issue on VMware Workstation, using a 64GB drive. The issue seems to come from GRUB somehow. The OS seems installs fine without GRUB, but obviously, this is a problem, as GRUB is necessary for it to boot. Choosing to install GRUB is what causes this issue.

EDIT: I wanted to point out that the issue seems to be independent of hardware. It occurs both with SATA and IDE drives, and the GRUB part makes me think it's probably not a VM configuration error, but rather some kind of error with calculating space requirements in the installer.

I'd say you can try. I think it will run a bit slow, try dual booting first perhaps? There are a few installers linked in the release post, easy and probably painless if you don't like it.

I will put looking into the installer on my list of things to do soon

You have toshiba wt7c, they have wt8b and wt10, but you can try those builds. Bliss OS eats more ram than windows 10 (consumes around 3-4gb ram on 32GB ram pc and takes 1.5gb on 4gb ram laptop)

This is because some apps only support touch input, they don't recognize mouse input (even popular game free fire has this problem)
Because these games are meant to be played using a touchscreen, not for a pc. Anyway, there are workarounds for this

 

[IamTheBRAVE]

there are workarounds for this

Like what? I understand that not all apps will work on x86 yet so no big deal. Thanks for taking the time to answer.
Happy new year to all.

Use hybrid mouse pointer of tincore keymapper....

You can also use your touchpad as touchscreen if tincore detects like in above screenshot

(click on area 0 and choose multi touch direct net and customize the area for it properly, also click on the touchpad icon and disable access for android via tincore keymapper or else it will conflict, it will also conflict and emulate touch incorrectly if you have touch hybrid pointer function on two mouse buttons { on both your touchpads left click and external mouse left click, set m0 under touchpad to disabled} )

 

[IamTheBRAVE]

Thank you for this. I saw that earlier but i understood very little of it so didn't want to mess something and make it worse . I'll read more on it and try it.
Edit:
It works! It was easy to set with your help, thank you!
