- Add x11proto to redbear-full.toml package list
- libxau recipe updated with x11proto dependency and custom build script
- Fixes libxau build failure: 'Package xproto was not found'
TLC (Twilight Commander) was missing from both ISO configs. Added
tlc = {} to [packages] in redbear-mini.toml and redbear-full.toml.
Created missing symlink: recipes/tui/tlc -> ../../local/recipes/tui/tlc.
The build-redbear.sh script was applying patches from local/patches/ to
recipes/core/{kernel,base,relibc,installer}/source/ via apply_patch_dir().
For path= (local fork) components, recipes/core/<comp>/source is a SYMLINK
to local/sources/<comp>. The patches went through the symlink and modified
the fork directly — re-adding old code like SchedPolicy that was already
removed from the fork.
This was the root cause of the kernel source reversion bug that caused
intermittent build failures (V157, V159): old patches re-applying stale
code to the synced fork through symlinks.
Fix:
- Remove apply_patch_dir calls for kernel, base, relibc, installer
(all use path= local fork model — changes are committed to the fork)
- Keep apply_patch_dir for bootloader (still uses git= + patches)
- Remove stash_nested_repo_if_dirty for relibc (no patches to stash)
- Update verify-overlay-integrity.sh expected patch symlinks
- Update apply-patches.sh to not create kernel/base patch symlinks
- Fix 005-qtbase signature marker (wrong path: libs → wip/qt)
- Remove 78 old patch symlinks from recipes/core/kernel/ (cleanup)
Add guard-recipes.sh with four modes:
- --verify: check all local/recipes have correct symlinks into recipes/
- --fix: repair broken symlinks (run before builds)
- --save-all: snapshot all recipe.toml into local/recipes/
- --restore: recreate all symlinks from local/recipes/ (run after sync-upstream)
Wired into apply-patches.sh (post-patch) and sync-upstream.sh (post-sync).
This prevents the build system from deleting recipe files during
cargo cook, make distclean, or upstream source refresh.
- apply-patches.sh: add signature-marker checks for build-system patches
to handle cases where reverse-check fails but patch is already applied
- test-baremetal.sh: auto-disable TUI when stdout is not a terminal;
pass CI=1 to make
- test-live-iso-qemu.sh: pass CI=1 via env to prevent repo cook panic
- scripts/run.sh: auto-disable TUI when stdout is not a terminal;
pass CI=1 to qemu launch
- repo.rs: improve TUI initialization error messages (raw mode + alternate
screen) and rustfmt cleanups
- config.rs: auto-detect TTY presence for TUI enablement; use is_terminal()
instead of relying solely on CI env var
Consolidate the active desktop path around redbear-full while landing the greeter/session stack and the runtime fixes needed to keep Wayland and KWin bring-up moving forward.
The symlink from recipes/wip/services/grub was using ../../../../local/
which goes above the repo root. Fixed to ../../../local/ which correctly
resolves from recipes/wip/services/ to local/recipes/core/grub.
install-grub.sh now searches both recipes/core/bootloader/target and
local/recipes/core/bootloader/target for the Redox bootloader artifact.
The WIP grub recipe (recipes/wip/services/grub) is now a full directory
symlink to local/recipes/core/grub instead of just recipe.toml, ensuring
COOKBOOK_RECIPE resolves to a directory that contains grub.cfg. This also
eliminates the duplicate recipe warning from the cookbook.
The GRUB recipe now fails hard (exit 1) if grub.cfg is missing instead of
just warning.
Ensures recipes/core/grub and the WIP conflict redirect are created
by apply-patches.sh, so a fresh sync-upstream + apply-patches cycle
preserves the GRUB integration.
Replace all 'rbos'/'RBOS' references with 'redbear'/'Red Bear OS'
across the build system, scripts, docs, and configs. Renamed files:
rbos.ipxe → redbear.ipxe
assets/rbos-icon.png → assets/redbear-icon.png
recipes/system/rbos-info → recipes/system/redbear-info
Added redbear-info: a system tool that enumerates all Red Bear OS
custom components, checks runtime availability via scheme paths and
binary presence, and prints status/test info. Supports --verbose,
--json, and --test output modes. Zero external dependencies.
Derivative of Redox OS (https://www.redox-os.org) adding:
- AMD GPU driver (amdgpu) via LinuxKPI compat layer
- ext4 filesystem support (ext4d scheme daemon)
- ACPI fixes for AMD bare metal (x2APIC, DMAR, IVRS, MCFG)
- Custom branding (hostname, os-release, boot identity)
Build system is full upstream Redox with RBOS overlay in local/.
Patches for kernel, base, and relibc are symlinked from local/patches/
and protected from make clean/distclean. Custom recipes live in
local/recipes/ with symlinks into the recipes/ search path.
Build: make all CONFIG_NAME=redbear-full
Sync: ./local/scripts/sync-upstream.sh
