README sposkpat - Single Purpose Operating System Kpatience -------- Description: Distractionless Patience card game (a.k.a. klondike, solitaire, пасьянс, त्यागी, kesabaran, türelem, ẩn sỉ, ソリティア, 接龍, سوليتير). Keeps other things out of your way (not even a clock included). 1. No logins, no passwords. 2. Hard disks are put to sleep (less noise, saving power). 3. Runs completely in RAM. 4. Shutdown by power-button is safe anytime. 5. No internet connection. 6. No virus-risks. 7. The distractional menu's don't work. 8. Will remain ad-free Note 1: Playing solitaire games helps you to greatly improve your attention span and enhance your ability to concentrate. Note 2: You can even boot sposkpat and play a game on a virus-infected machine (not inside a virtual machine). -------- Instructions: 1. Burn the image (not copy) sposkpat-1.05.iso to CD/DVD, or write (not copy) the image sposkpat-1.05.iso to a USB-memory-device as follows: Linux: --- dd if=sposkpat-1.05.iso of=/dev/sdx where sdx is your USB device, be careful with dd, be very sure about the /dev/sdx. You can find the right device name by looking in dmesg's output after plugging in the stick, or better yet, ls -l /dev/disk/by-id dd can destroy the contents and partitions of your main disks when used with the wrong letter for x. Your whole USB-device will be overwritten. Windows: --- https://sourceforge.net/projects/win32diskimager/ (not tested) [http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/coreutils.htm has dd for Windows (not tested)] 2. Reboot. 3. Set your BIOS to boot from CD or USB. (At startup press F10 or del in most cases to get into the BIOS). 4. Safely ignore all bootmessages, and be a little patient. The game will start automatically. -------- -------- Sposkpat inside a Virtual Machine: To give sposkpat a try you can run it inside a virtual machine, qemu tested: qemu-system-i386 -machine accel=kvm -m 512 -cdrom ~/Downloads/sposkpat-1.05.iso Press Ctrl + Alt to release mouse again to get out of qemu. Should work even inside qemu on Windows and Q on the Mac (not tested). VMware also works (tested on the Mac). ---- ---- Made with KDE's kpat cardgame. Build on Linux Debian/GNU 6.0 with live-build. ---- Free. Use at your own risk. Have fun. No guarantees. GPL-2.0. ---- MD5sums: f6a5b1d15a69cfa9b6990f92416a6bf2 sposkpat-netboot-1.05.tar.gz e943eeab1815dec5221e21f6c896553d sposkpat-1.05.iso ----
