WSL provides a Linux-compatible kernel interface developed by Microsoft (containing no Linux kernel code), which can then run a GNU userland on top of it, such as that of Ubuntu, openSUSE, SUSE Linux Enterprise Server, Debian and Kali Linux. Such a userland might contain a Bash shell and command language, with native GNU/Linux command-line tools (sed, awk, etc.) and programming language interpreters (Ruby, Python, etc.). When introduced with the Anniversary Update, only an Ubuntu image was available. The Fall Creators Update moved the installation process for Linux distributions to the Windows Store, and introduced Fedora and Suse images. </blockquote> -The result, as you can see, is quite impressive. +The resulting functionality is impressive. {% include gallery caption="**Remmina** on WSL" %} -So while you wait or you write ;-) the code to port Remmina natively to Windows, enjoy it, as usual for Free(tm), with WSL and find some time to say thanks and cheers to Lewis. +Thanks and cheers to Lewis. diff --git a/_posts/2018-07-31-remmina-kiosk-edition.md b/_posts/2018-07-31-remmina-kiosk-edition.md index 8c7d644..6859381 100644 --- a/_posts/2018-07-31-remmina-kiosk-edition.md +++ b/_posts/2018-07-31-remmina-kiosk-edition.md @@ -4,7 +4,7 @@ date: 2018-07-31T11:35:40+00:00 author: Antenore Gatta layout: single permalink: /remmina-kiosk-edition/ -excerpt: Remmina article that explain the Remmina Kiosk Mode feature. +excerpt: Explaining the new release, move to GitLab, and kiosk mode. categories: - announcement - News @@ -15,25 +15,24 @@ tags: {% include figure image_path="/assets/images/vacations.jpg" %} -Despite it's vacation time and that it's quite too hot to stay at home coding, -as usual we didn't resist to release a new Remmina version. +Despite it is vacation time and quite too hot to stay at home coding, +this deterred nobody in releasing a new Remmina version. -This release it's not that big as we were busy to move from [GitHub](https://github.com) -to [GitLab](https://gitlab.com/Remmina/Remmina), nevertheless, we where able to -introduce a Kiosk mode, adding custom SSH terminal colors per profile and fixed a bunch of bugs. +It is not that big, as we were busy moving from the proprietary [GitHub](https://github.com) +to the libre softweare [GitLab](https://gitlab.com/Remmina/Remmina), following the formers purchase by Microsoft. +Nevertheless, we where able to introduce a kiosk mode, adding custom SSH terminal colors per profile, and many bugfixes. -In more details: +The details: - Custom color schemes per profile for the SSH plugin (@denk_mal). - Flatpak updates and fixes (@larchunix) - Kiosk mode with integration in the login manager (@antenore). -- New Icons (@antenore and @larchunix). +- New icons (@antenore and @larchunix). - SFTP tool password fixes (@Feishi). - Several fixes around RDP and compilations issues (@giox069 and @larchunix). -The rest of the time, as I was saying, we were very busy in moving to GitLab, -mainly migrating the continuos integration, that is what, partly, generate the Remmina +The continuos integration is up and running, which partly generates the Remmina packages you use. -As usual, to install and/or update, follow our [wiki](https://gitlab.com/Remmina/Remmina/wikis/home) -and don't hesitate to report any bugs or fetaure requests. +As usual, to install and/or upgrade, follow our [wiki](https://gitlab.com/Remmina/Remmina/wikis/home) +and don't hesitate to report bugs or make feature requests. diff --git a/_posts/2018-10-07-remmina-before-the-storm-edition.md b/_posts/2018-10-07-remmina-before-the-storm-edition.md index e88b374..2349725 100644 --- a/_posts/2018-10-07-remmina-before-the-storm-edition.md +++ b/_posts/2018-10-07-remmina-before-the-storm-edition.md @@ -4,7 +4,7 @@ date: 2018-10-07T11:15:40+00:00 author: Dario Cavedon layout: single permalink: /remmina-before-the-storm-edition/ -excerpt: Remmina release announcement +excerpt: 1.2.32 release announcement categories: - announcement - News @@ -14,25 +14,24 @@ tags: {% include figure image_path="/assets/images/before_the_storm.jpg" %} -Hello Remminers!
