ගල් ලෑල්ලේ සහ අඟුරු කැබැල්ලේ වැඩ දැන් ඩිගිටල් වෙලා

අඟුරු කැබැල්ලලෙන් පටන් ගෙන ගල් ලෑල්ලටත්, වැල්ලේ සටහන් කල පිය සටහන් මැකී ගියා සේ ඒ සුන්දර අතීතය අමතක වුනත් මොලයේ යම් කොටසක ඒ අතීතය සටහන්ව ඇත.
දෙස් කී බෝඩ් එක එම අතීත සටහන ඇඟිලි තුඩුවට අපුරුවට ගෙනවිත් ඇත.
බොහොම ස්තුතීයි.

Welcome to MANJARO

I am back with MANJARO after 2 years.
It looks good and I am Installing GNOME Desktop on my Old Laptop.
I have huge 42GB Space expecting to add many other Desktops later.
WiFi is smooth.
Installation is quick.
I would try UPDATES and move to the next distribution install. I hope Manjaro won't have conflicts with CachyOS.
UPDATES were quick and would return later to add my choices including Cutefish.

Next is BIG Linux.
Installation going on smoothly and as I have stated earlier finding the Instal Script was difficult due to heavy graphic inputs
Pantheon Desktop is very attractive.
XivaStudio would not have any space im my Laptop. Reasons I have discussed elsewhere.

Next would be BlueStar Linux my favourite KDE Desktop. It would be given ample space for me to install Blender.

මොක්ෂා Linux ලිනුෂ් සහ සිංහල අකුරු

දැන් මොහොතකට කලින්, මොක්ෂා ලිනුෂ් සහ Enlightenment Linux  යන දෙකම මගේ Laptop එකේ ස්ථාපිත කලා. හරියට පොසොන් පොයට සතියකට කලින්. 
ඊටත් වඩා ඉහලයි, ගල්ලෑල්ලේ වගෙ ලියන්න පුලුවන් දෙස් කී බොර්ඩ් එක. නොබෙල් ත්‍යාගය හිමි විය යුතුයි.  
සිංහල බැඳි අකුරු ලියන්න පුලුවන් එක අති විශිෂ්ථ ව්‍යායාමයක්. කැලුම් ජයසුමන සහ ජයරත්න පතිරආරච්චි මේ සටහන අනිවාර්යෙන් ම කිව යුතුයි. ජිවිතියෙ සැන්දැ කාලය ගත කරණ මට මෙය හොඳ මෙවලමක්. 
ඉන්ග්‍රීසියෙන් ම රාජකාරිය කල මට සිංහලෙන් (ලංකාවේ මෙන්ම පිටරටත්), අකුරු ලියන්න බැරිව හිටියෙ. දැන් ඉතින් කරදරයක් නැතුව Google Blog Post කරන්න පුලුවන්. 
වැල්ලේ අකුරු ලියු මට එය ලස්සන හීනයක්.
 ස්තුතියි.

AVL MXe Installation

This I found bit difficult

Forsy Difficulty was to find the Iso Image.
AI was not helpful.
With trial and error I finally found the mirror. Downloading was easy only 3GB.
I got AV Linux Moksha (Bodhi Linux) version in additional.
All based on Mephis from where migrated to Debian.
Graphic installer with lot of valuable instructions and guidance.
I had lot of friction with Elive guys.
Enlightenment Desktop was my heart throb from 32 bit ERA.
It is mounting on its own on my Laptop.
I gave only 16GB for /root and no complaints.
THANK You guys and girls for the UPDATED version in 2026.
Keep Up the Good Works. 
It is very soothing on my eyes.
I could not configure WiFi on Live Session but it is on.
I  going to install AbiWord and Audacity.
Both successful.
I have 3.6GB remaining.
I would not fiddle any more.
I HATE Thunar File manager of XFCE but with Enlightenment Desktop on I won't complain.

Pop OS Stinks

In a way, I am thankful to Pop OS.
Because, it messed up with my System, I have got both Moksha Dedktop and Enlightenment Desktop running on my old Laptop. Moksha is Bodhi Linux Derivative with modified Enlightenment Desktop.
All these years I ran Enlightenment Desktop unfer the hood of GNOME of DEBIAN but it is now on its own.

Yes, Pop OS. It was out of my Radar from 32 bit ERA. It stinks.
It subservient to Microsoft and leave a 4MB Microsoft DATA LooP for Microsoft snoop on your hard disk. I have never given 3 hours of my time to any distribution. It cannot even configure SWAP. I had 3 SWAP partitions to supplement the RAM since my RAM is only 4GB. It can hold om to or format only one SWAP partition.
I only tried it because veteran Richard Stallman gave his thumbs up. I disagree.
I do not like its STORE.
Only can run Cosmic Desktop on CachyOS effortlessly.
My basic recommendation is minimum of 8GB RAM for a modern Linux Desktop. I should have bought another RAM stick of 4GB. Considering the today's prices they were damn cheap in Ceylon. Besides, with ENDLESS OS running SLOW I thought this Laptop was primitive to upgrade.
But Debian Forky Proved, I was wrong.
It runs smoothly now.
I am going for another cuo of tea.
BlueStar installation is finishing but it takes time for its UPGRADE.

ඇගිල්ලෙන් ලියන්න පුරුදු වෙනවා

දැන් ඇඟිල්ලෙන් ලියන්න පුලුවන්.
වැඩෙ සුපිරියි.
