Highlights

  • Opt-in update notice. SmartLinux can tell you when a newer release exists. Off until you agree (asked once, changeable from the Updates menu in the status bar); one anonymous request to the public GitHub API, at most daily; nothing is downloaded or installed.
  • USB compatibility mode. Some USB adapters hide the drive's full S.M.A.R.T. table while they run in UAS mode. A new button explains exactly what will happen and, with your consent and administrator permission, briefly switches the adapter to Bulk-Only mode, reads the data and switches it back. Refuses to touch a disk with mounted volumes in use.
  • Fully manual scans. Nothing is read until you ask: Scan Now for a drive that was never scanned, Refresh afterwards, with a "Last scanned" time. Faster and quieter with many hosts connected.
  • Fix: drives behind USB bridges were sometimes reported as "unsupported bridge" although they could be read.
  • Dialog layout stays readable when a window manager forces a fixed window size.
  • Packaging: .deb for Ubuntu/Debian (see assets) and an Arch PKGBUILD in packaging/arch/.

Install

  • Ubuntu / Debian: sudo apt install ./smartlinux_1.2.0_all.deb
  • Arch: cd packaging/arch && makepkg -si
  • Optional putty / putty-tools for legacy SSH devices.
