What is this? You might ask. Well this is a small patch that I wrote to change the appearance of the PVE interface.
PVE is an awesome system, built upon an even more impressive Linux distribution. However I though that some design love was required to the interface itself.
Instead of waiting around I quickly figured out how the Perl based interfaced was put together. Then after a few hours of tinkering I had changed the interface quite radically.
I have uploaded a small screenshot so that everyone can see the difference and make up their own mind.
The patch itself consists of two files:
pve-manager.patch & perl5-PVE.patch
Download these and put them into your /tmp directory on the system that you wish to patch. Then you change directory to /usr/share/pve-manager and apply the first patch with patch -p0 < /tmp/pve-manager.patch
You can also put the progressmeter.jpg file into /usr/share/pve-manager/images as this will give you a slightly more fancy progressbar.
The second patch is applied by first going into /usr/share/perl5/PVE and then by running patch -p0 < /tmp/perl5-PVE.patch
As always, if you break your system - do not come crying to me. You should be knowing what you are doing!
Oh yes, I had to put pve-manager.patch into a zipfile, and add .txt to the perl5-PVE.patch file.
