Downloaded iso for v67, and on it was the '.exe' version of lblank7 - put the entire 'other' directory on my WIN10 laptop, ran lblank7.exe as admin and it zeroed-out the drive's unallocated space (awesome). It's a 300Gb HD w/58Gb data Imaging it BEFORE zeroing gave me a 'compressed' lzop file 240Gb AFTER zeroing re-imaged it gave me lzop file 46Gb... BIG difference was due to the drive had WIN7 on it taking up 276Gb (plus 'erased' crap) of the 300Gb drive, then installed WIN10 over it (total wipe...

OK - so, we're talking about a single OS laptop running Win10, not linux, so no grub... My WIN10 sez bitlocker is OFF... can I just run lblank7 that is in the cd of my g4l (copy it to another usb that WIN10 can see) while in windows via it's command prompt? There's lblank7 and lblank7_64 - neither one has '.exe' after it... there's a 'blank6.exe' on it...

is there a way to get windows cipher.exe to just write the zero's and not the full: once with a series of 0's (zero) once with a series of 255's once with a series of random numbers just want the deleted files space 'emptied', not overwritten to prevent recovery... sfdisk -l /dev/sda shows: sda1 is EFI system, sda2 is microsoft reserved, sda3 is microsoft basic data, and sda4 is windows recovery environment ntfsck /dev/sda3 says command not found fsck -f /dev/sda3 - not willing to use this - seems...

trying to use G4L's utility zerotool on my win10 partition sda3 w/UEFI boot using g4l v0.66a and booted as UEFI w/no problem - trying to use its zerotool and it comes up with: Progress /bin/g4l: line 132: 0bits: Read-only file system ncftpstatus: OK ...but nothing happens :-\ does the zerotool not work on my win10 partition?

hnsky 4.1.33b (lower case this time for some reason) installed perfectly - all the weirdness is gone ~ works flawlessly! Thanks han.k - couldn't have done it without your indispensable help ;-) HAPPY CAMPER - now, gotta get out the telescope and 'play'....
-
Ubuntu Software window sez version 4.3.2b is 'potentially unsafe' and 'unknown license'... then goes into 'Unable to find HNSKY.desktop'... but appears to have uninstalled - thanks. Next: install version 4.1.33b and see how that works ;-)
-
not sure how to do the debugger thingy... there's this icon in my dash for HNSKY that I click on and it launches - that's about all I know on running it ;-) will uninstall and install version 4.1.33b to see it if helps :-| ...oops - looked to uninstall, but when I go to 'App Details' it launches my ubuntu software which says can't find that application.. look in list and it's not there ~ like I said earlier "this 64-bit Ubunto 24.04lts laptop doesn't seem to 'like it'... the program, although 'installed',...

...never get any error info - it just goes away, then some times pops back up like nothing happened (except maybe one or more desktop applications crashing) only to finally crash requiring restarting HNSKY altogether. Was hoping to maybe find an older version to replace the latest version with but no links to older versions... perhaps check archive.org 'WayBackMachine' for one ;-) Note: I'm, using the Wayland desktop, not xorg... not sure which you use and may make the difference... peculiar that...

looking at my conky display as I run HNSKY, there's plenty of RAM available, swap file got plenty of room, the dual core processor is nowhere maxed out, and the network connection (s) are fine (local area network cable, and (2) wifi - one pci the other usb)... it's just glitch as heck with HNSKY :-\
-
the Lubuntu 18.04lts machine has the 32 bit version of latest HNSKY and has only 1Gb RAM the Ubuntu 24.04lts machine has the 64bit version of latest HNSKY and has 2Gb RAM ...on the Lubuntu machine HNSKY works flawlessly ...on the Ubuntu machine HNSKY works like crap - almost unmanageable! p.s. - btw: HNSKY works fine on my win7 64bit w/2Gb RAM partition ;-)

install is fine - issue is it keeps crashing when I try to edit settings - will crash to empty desktop, then it's back up again...and will do this a few times as I change settings before complete crash to desktop and doesn't pop back up - usually crashing anything else running in background like conky, etc. Otherwise it 'runs' fine... just 'buggy' (and yep - admin)
-
Yep, downloaded hnsky_amd64.deb but installed it for Ubuntu 24.04lts, not Lubuntu which is Ubuntu Light ... my laptop with Lubuntu works fine with HNSKY, but my Ubuntu is not so 'friendly' ;-) installed fine.. appears to run fine, until you go to adjust settings, etc. then it crashes out stuff...

Just installed the latest version and it 'works' (I guess), but anytime I try to adjust anything it crashes and often corrupts my desktop - crashing other things as well. Seems to work fine on my Lubuntu 18.04lts 32-bit laptop using an older version, but this 64-bit Ubunto 24.04lts laptop doesn't seem to 'like it'... the program, although 'installed', does not show up in my 'ubuntu software' app for some reason, but does show up in the 'show apps' section so I could pin it to the dash for easy launching....
