 | Brainstorm Have an idea to improve Chakra operating system, web site, community experience or promotion? We want to hear it! So just add it to the list in the proper category, or create a new category below. |
Applications
- Simple User-Friendly User Creation Tool
- Something like we have in tribe would be oke to add simple users after install. ─ dryfit @ Chakra Forums

- Ability to write a label for partitions. ─ valeriodean @ Chakra Forums
- Extend/improve error output. ─ valeriodean @ Chakra Forums
- Option to edit and carry on files from live to installation, like few distros e.g kanotix , pclinuxos. ─ saleem @ #chakra
Operating System Tweaks
- Plymouth theme by default
- Install a plymouth theme by default.
- Energy Saving Mode
- Enable energy-saving mode in order to reduce brightness of display.
- WLAN Sticks auto-detection
- Enable auto-detection of wlan-sticks.
- Kickoff Subcategories
- Organize the KDE kickoff in subcategories (i.e. "Browsers" under "Internet").
- Chakra Web Shortcuts
- Add Chakra-related Web Shortcuts to Konqueror enabled by default:
- Name: Chakra Wiki
- Search URI: http://www.chakra-project.org/wiki/index.php/Special:Search?search=\{@}&go=Go
- Shortcut: wiki
- Name: Chakra Packages
- Search URI: http://chakra-project.org/packages/index.php?act=search&searchpattern=\{1}&subdir=\{2}
- Shortcut: software,package
- Examples: "package:okular", "package:okular desktop-testing/i686"
- Name: Chakra Wiki
- Give users btrfs as a default
- openSUSE now considers it stable enough for root folder
- Move /bin, /sbin, /lib, /lib64 to /usr
- Fedora already do that and this recommended for systemd distros
- Remove JFS and XFS filesystem support
- There is no use for either on desktops
Promotion
- Promotion Graphics
- Provide promotional graphics for blogs, signatures, etc. linking to the Chakra website.
- Promotion Team
- Maybe we could have a Chakra PR team to organize all that..fb/twitter/identi.ca/pla pla. ─ tetris4 @ #chakra-devel.
- Promotion Bot
- Create a bot to repeat Chakra news in social networks from Chakra official account: Identi.ca, Twitter, Facebook, etc.
- Promotion in FOSS Gaming
- Since we are slowly growing into a good distro for gamers, there are some places and ways of promotion we should have in mind, although most of them would required a skilled person in certain areas.
- Speed Dreams' car skin. Instructions.
- SuperTuxKart' car. Instructions.
Web site and community
- Repository's RSS
- Provide syndicated links about "updated/new packages" from different repos.
- This is already implemented in the packages web interface currently under development for use with akabei.
- Wiki Multi-Category Search
- It could be useful when searching for Hardware, e.g., searching for an ASUS laptop which works out-of-the-box. [1]
- IRC Bot
- Chakra should have an official IRC bot, present in all the Chakra IRC rooms, which incorporates all (or most)
phrikandeskarchafeatures.- It should log all Chakra channels, and let access them.
- This is already implemented. See chakra-bot's git repo.
- Better Internationalization (PO-based)
- Chakra Wiki should take the example of KDE UserBase in order to improve both user and translator experience. Steps.
- Planets
- There are some Chakra-specific blogs around, and we should probably provide a feed planet for each language so community can easily access and follow them.
